Issue ID	1183414
Internal NHTSA #	10716385
Manufacurer	Toyota Motor Corporation
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	HIGHLANDER
Model Year	2011
File date	25/07/14
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The rear door sensor keeps indicating the door is open when it is not. This causes the interior lights to flash, door to chime, and the rear display to show "door open". This began happening when i would turn left. When the weather is really hot outside (90s and above) it is worse. This issue causes a bigger problem, with the vehicle thinking that the rear door is not closed it does not allow me to lock/alarm my vehicle when out in public. I am active duty military and currently live overseas, so keeping my vehicle locked/alarmed is extremely important.
