| Description of the problem | The 2013 highlander was serviced in florida monday 10/27 for 15000 miles service, today my sister was driving since service, the traction light came on ,the engine light was flashing , the highlander was not stable driving straight on the road and seemed like it needs a tune up. I called the dealer and it was taken their ,first response was gas put in, yes . Was told possible the cap was not put on right and with newer cars it could be a malfunction the computer.. Turned out that the ignition coil switch was bad on this 2013 highlander. Which is why i'm reporting this due to recent issue with another car manufacture knowing the ignition switch was bad on their automobiles. |
