THIS COMPLAINT CONCERNS THE NEW 2010 TOYOTA 4RUNNER. THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND HANDLING FOR THIS VEHICLE. UPON DEPRESSING THE BRAKES, THE PEDAL TRAVELS A CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE SOUNDS SQUEAKY AND NOTCHY AND DELAYS IN STOPPING. THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES DO NOT INTERACT QUICKLY AND OFTEN TIMES ENGAGED AT THE VERY END OF THE BRAKE DISTANCE AND CREATES A VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND UNSETTLING FEELING. THE HEIGHT CLEARANCE IS ALSO A CONCERN BECAUSE WHEN CROSS WINDS HIT THE VEHICLE IT CREATES A VERY UNSETTLING FEELING AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SWAY AND GET UNDER THE VEHICLE MAKING PRONE TO LOSS CONTROL. THAT WIND DOES NOT HAVE TO BE EXCESSIVE; THE MILDEST OF WINDS WILL CAUSE A DISRUPTION. SEVERAL MEASURES HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO HAVE A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP REVIEW AND ADDRESS THE ISSUE AND THEY HAVE COME BACK AND STATED THAT IT OPERATES ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATIONS. NO ONE OTHER THAN TOYOTA KNOWS OF THOSE SPECIFICATIONS AND THEY WILL NOT DISCLOSE THEM UNTIL ENOUGH PEOPLE HIGHLIGHT THIS ISSUE BY COMPLAINING. TO ADD FURTHER INSULT TO INJURY, TOYOTA HAS PLACED AN ADMINISTRATIVE HOLD ON ANY REPAIRS UNLESS THEY SANCTION IT. IN ONE OF THE LATEST USES, I HAD A DEER CROSS MY PATH AND I TRIED TO STOP AND THE VEHICLE KEPT MOVING ALONG AND THE BRAKES GRABBED AFTER 12 FEET. I MISSED THE DEER BUT I WAS FORCED TO RELIVE THE ISSUE OF HOW FAULTY THE BRAKES ARE FOR THIS VEHICLE. IT REINFORCED THE ISSUES WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. WE NEED FOR TOYOTA TO OWN UP TO THIS HIDDEN DEFECT. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THESE VEHICLES SEEM TO CONTROL EVERY OPERATING ASPECT OF THE VEHICLE AND THAT APPEARS AT ISSUE AS WELL. *TR UPDATED IVOQ 01/20/11 THE CONSUMER WOULD LIKE A RESPONSE TO HIS COMPLAINT UPDATED IVOQ 03/01/11

TO FINISH THE COMPLAINT OF ODI 10436894, YOU ARE GOING TO NEED: A CHEMICAL ANALYSIS-HAZ MSDS BEEN FILED AT OHSA? - IMMEDIATE SHUTDOWN WITH CHEMICAL SAFETY A PART ANALYSIS DEFENSE HAS EXTERNAL TO THE BUSINESS IN THE FORM OF FIRST ARTICLE TEST-USUALLY THE BASE THAT JUST ORDERED THE NEWEST VEHICLE FLEET IN THE MOTOR POOL. THIS IS A SUBPENOABLE FILE EXTERNAL TO THE BUSINESS. NEED THE ORDER UP NUMBER FROM ALL RECEIPTS AT AUTOLIV TO GET MSDS THAT THE SUPPLIERS FILE WITH OSHA. THAT'S THE MIX. SAMPLE PRODUCT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO DATE AS THEY MARK SERIAL #'S WITH NO MANUFACTURE DATE. THIS USUALLY PROMPTS TESTING WITH EACH ORDER UP NUMBER CHANGE FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS. EVERYTHING RETURNED TO THE PLANT GOES OUT WITH A NEW SERIAL NUMBER. LAST YEAR WE CAUGHT THIS ADVERTISED ON E-BAY TO START YOUR HOME BASE BUSINESS. WITH THE CLOSURE OF DELCO, PLANT RETURNS ARE GOING TO THE SECOND HAND PART STORE IN PEOPLE'S HOME. NO MENTION IN THIS NEW SCHEME FROM AUTOLIV THAT AN EXPLOSIVES LICENSE AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE IS NECESSARY EXTERNAL TO THE VEHICLE ONLY. MEANWHILE WE REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS IS A CHEMICAL AND NUCLEAR LOAD IN THE FRONT SEAT. WE NEED DISPOSAL SITES IN 50 TO KEEP THE RETURNS FROM GOING BACK OUT TO THE PUBLIC. THERE WAS A FIRE SUPPRESSANT SYSTEM THAT WAS IN DEVELOPMENT THAT SPRAYS FUEL NEUTRALIZER "IN FRONT OF THE FIREWALL AND OVER THE GAS TANK". WE NEED THE CURRENT DRAWING BOARD THROUGH BANKRUPTCY NEVER TO PRODUCE AGAIN AND THE NEW PRODUCT START UP. WE NEED PRODUCTION OF NEW DOOR, DASH, AND STEERING WHEEL WITHOUT THE PRODUCT IN IT.
