Struts can go bad but I still have the originals on my 190000 KM 2005 vibe. Apparently that's not the case with the 2GR-FKS engine. So I am very impressed that all of the warranty work was done without a fuss, the Toyota dealer provided us with loaner car.īut, 2019 was the last year of the Gen 3 Highlander so you figure they would have fixed all the quirks. no picture here as I never found the leak. Removed the 2GR-FKS engine and transmission from car to replace the timing cover gasket, that also triggered and engine oil change and realignment of the car. This week Dealer changed 3 struts under warranty It was a short call, after I established I had the original paperwork and the prior diagnostics were already done it was time to fix her up. In September dealer inspection done under previous owner found leaking front and back strut and timing cover leak.Īfter purchasing car took an appointment with the original Toyota garage that serviced the car. I got of hold of paper work from original owner car, plus it had Toyota PEA (extended warranty) which I transfered, all service was done at a Toyota dealer. The car drove like a new car and smells like one. The one we purchased had 44000 KM at time of inspection leaking front struts, we purchased knowing it was cover by warranty.Īndrew did not give me good vibes about the car, he felt it was an ex rental and possibly driven hard but hey is was still covered under warranty what could possibly go wrong ? Carfax was clean with one private owner. Shopped around, inspected a few had Andrew Bleaky inspect 2 cars. Settled on a Highlander as I wanted something reliable sort of like how our 2005 Vibe has been. Purchased a used 2019 Highlander LE a month ago.
