| Door Latch problems |
I have owned my vehicle since 2017 and since then I have had to change the locks over 10 times. This has been ongoing since purchasing my car. Some were originally covered with the warranty but since it expired, I have paid dealerships out of pocket. I have a lock give out almost yearly. Right now my car has 3 of the 4 door locks not working and the 4th just started acting up as well. I have checked for recalls because it doesn't make sense that they would go out yearly and the dealerships have even told me there should be recalls because my year 4runner always has lock issues. My safety concern is my locks either have to stay unlocked or I risk locking my car completely and it not opening because the key will not unlock it. I have tried contacting Toyota and they have stated they cannot help so I am wanting to reach out to see if there is anything that can be done or if you can point me in the right direction on who I can reach out to . Thank you.
