| Description of the problem | Upon exiting the freeway i was on a right-turning off-ramp when i heard beeping and a crunching noise coming from the front end. It sounded as if something was seriously wrong with the vehicle. Once i was off the freeway, i pulled over and the warning lights had gone off. It has happened a few times since then, however it's only been the beeping, not the loud crunching noise. In searching online, it appears this is the same issue that the 2003's were recalled for. There have been so many complaints that toyota should do the right thing and recall the 2004's as well. |
