Description of the problem	Hello, i would like to get nhtsa's help because toyota won't provide any remedy for this problem. On 4/17/2015, i bought a toyota 2015 highlander le plus from toyota north brunswick (nj) and noticed buzzing sound after driving only ~30 minutes. Buzzing sound comes from dashboard area constantly, ~once every minute (in the beginning of driving) to ~every second (after driving an hour). The noise is from the air blend servo (related to ac) as acknowledged by local toyota service dpt, but toyota keeps saying that the noise is normal no matter how often it happens because the regional toyota field technical specialist (fts) [xxx] said so, i. E. Toyota can't help you. (note: he hasn't even checked my vehicle in person.) i think the noise itself can happen from time to time, but the problem is frequency, just like sneezing every second is not normal even though sneezing itself is normal to human. A toyota technician told me the other day that replacing air blend servo is pretty expensive because the whole dashboard needs to be taken apart. I suspect toyota won't fix this under its warranty unless this problem becomes life threatening, i. E. Too expensive for toyota. My family and friends ask "how can you drive with this crazy noise?". The noise is almost like sleeping w/ 100 gnats in the same room. I am a drive with over 20 years' experience and have always used new vehicles, but never experienced this kind of problem with new vehicles from other manufacturers. Please help me with this problem. Thank you. P. S. I also found more people with same problem and frustration: http://www. Toyotanation. Com/forum/333-3rd-generation-2014/1077937-weird-vibrating-buzzing-noise. Html.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
