Toyota used to do better

two issues after 100k. the struts on the lift gate fail. the variable valve intake gears fail costing 5k to replace of 12 k for rebuilt motor. That's what happened to me and we bought it new.

Newer Highlander - old one died saving my life

Great family vehicle. Drove my last one for 9 years and it still ran perfectly until I was in a bad wreck and totaled it. I walked away without a scratch after rolling and flipping it down a steep hill six times.

Fun to Drive, Versatile, Great Performance

Simply the best SUV that we have ever owned. Really, Toyota makes the best trucks and cars. We have owned all the ""American brands"" Our advice: don't ever compare a Toyota Highlander to a Dodge Durango or a Ford Explorer or a Chevy Traverse. Fun to drive, power, quiet, strength, reliability are all superior in the Toyota. The ""American brands" are all lower cost... but for all the bad reasons!!

Love my car, but needs better interior design

I have owned my 2014 Limited since it was new in 2014. It drives like a dream. I would not trade it for the world. The only downside that I see in this car is the plastic workings for the dash and the seatbelt housing. They come loose super easily now. I am not hard on my cars, but the clips seem to have worn down over time. I know my Toyota will be drivable until the body gives out so that is why I am keeping it. I just wish the interior was a little more sturdier to match the price tag!

Family SUV

Strong resale value and same options and more as luxury brand but more reasonable price. Never had single issue with great gas mileage. You can get DVD package with third row and you are all set

My favorite vehicle ever!

We bought this 2014 highlander used with less than 50k miles on it to use as a family car. The XLE is incredible! It is so spacious, comfortable, functional, and I know it will be reliable through the years since it is a Toyota. We are so happy with our purchase!

98000 miles and never an issue

This is my second Highlander and if I have to replace it I will replace it with a Highlander. It is reliable and safe. I am extremely happy with this SUV.
