2011 Toyota Highlander consumer reviews

I own this car since 2011. Already the interor started to falling apart. The sun visors are always drooping. Problems with steering......I need to get rid of this one

Avoid this car at all cost! We have owned this vehicle for 6 months and have only 4,000 miles on it. Yesterday the steering locked up on us again while driving 45 mph. This is the second time since we bought it. This is due to the computer controls attached to the steering. This car is poorly engineered and extremely unsafe. Toyota just is not what it used to be!

We have owned a Highlander for about a year. This is a comfortable car to drive and travel in with the family. That being said, we wish we never bought this vehicle. There are way too many electronically controlled systems that fail. This vehicle has electric steering and it has gone out several times while driving. It also has electronic brake distribution and it has failed. We also have had the car just not start periodically for no reason. These systems are controlled by the computer and have put our family in extremely unsafe situations. We now own a vehicle that we are afraid to drive!

I have owned four toyotas. I currently have a 2004 tundra. The highlander limited I purchased in april 2010. It is a GREAT vehicle. I do my own oil changes, and the two I own are very consumer friendly. Will never buy anything other than toyotas. Great resale value.

I have been looking for a midsize suv for my wife for the past 4 months .I did an extensive research specifically we ultimately settled with Highlander after test driving about 6 other brands. We love the ride, looks and space. Got the crimson red with black leather in the SE version.

The only thing I see is lacking is sluggish acceleration. Looks like there is some delay in accl. after you pedal gas. Good car for the price!

After months and months of research we finally bite the bullet and bought a se v6 model. great vehicle. we are very happy with it. Also own a 2001 sienna that have never given us a lick of trouble since we bought it new so it was hard to change to another brand..

I was rear-ended the day after buying this vehicle. The other vehicle's air bags depolyed. There was minimal damage to my 2011 Highlander and it was safe to drive until it went in for repairs. This Highlander has excellent suspension and road damping, even on the pot-holed roads we face here in San Diego. The 2011 Highlander is wider (4 inches) and longer (8 inches) than my 2005 was which makes it hard to fit two cars in our 2-car garage. The full size navigation and hands-free bluetooth access make it a plus while driving. The third row seat is a joke, unless you like cramped quarters and are flexible enough to squeeze past the second row seats, but was not an option to remove from the vehicle. Overall I am happy with this vehicle and have no regrets upgrading to a newer Highlander.

Bought my Highlander back in August. It has been a great car for the family and for work purposes. The storage is excellent in the back and the third row has come in handy.

I was pleasantly surprised at how much roomier the 2011 was over the 2003. This SUV has more power than you could ever want or need. Look forward to having many years of service from it.
