general problems of the 2013 Toyota Avalon

I have a electrical issue going on with the driver side headlight. I have had to change the headlight over 3 times now . Seems to go out with in a month or two. While doing my own research Toyota has also changed the light bulb for the old owner more then 3 times. It has only been the driver side headlight that is being affected. I'm a lil worried that at any time a electrical fire or something else bad will happen. So at this time I haven't had new bulb installed. I'm just to nervous. So it's hard at times to see at night fall when driving.

02/06/2020 NHTSA complaint: 2013 Toyota Avalon hybrid limited, rear window sunshade assembly failure, complete and total, in the 'up' position and/or in the �down� position. When stuck up, the failure obstructs rear view at nighttime. This is a serious safety issue. The sunshade is designed to automatically retract into the 'down' position when the car is put in reverse, but if this failure has occurred, the sunshade will make a loud grinding sound for about 15-20 seconds while the sunshade attempts (and fails) to retract into the 'down' position. It will also make the sound even if the sunshade is already retracted. If the shade is already down/retracted and I shift from park to reverse, the grinding noise starts immediately, and the shade does not move (go up). But if I press the activate button, the shade will start to extend, and if I can press the activate button again before the shade is fully extended, it will retract (and begin another 20 second cycle of grinding) and stay down. While stopped or in motion, pressing the activate button raises the shade (if it was down or retracted), but not without the 20 seconds of loud grinding noise. If the shade is up/extended and you press the activate button, the shade will not retract/go down, but the grinding noise will begin. If the shade is up/extended the only way to make it go down is to press the activate button and, while the grinding noise is present, simultaneously go to the back seat so you can reach the shade and manually push one of the vertical bars toward the center; then the shade retracts fully and continues grinding for another 20 second cycle. Not only is this a safety issue, but it is continuous and the grinding noise is incredibly annoying.

The rear power sunshade, which is standard equipment on the limited model, raises on its own and won't go back down causing low visibility. There is no way to manually lower it either.

I received a recall notice on my vehicle on February 6, 2014 and every time I have called the dealership to have my hvac assembly repaired they tell me that the parts are on backorder. I feel like they are putting me and my safety at risk by not producing a fix for this recall.

Received recall notice from Toyota, March 2014 regarding internal short circuiting of the integrated circuits on the electronic control module. Contact Toyota sept 2014 regarding when this would be fixed. The customer support representative did not know. I believe Toyota has failed to remedy this defect within a reasonable time, that being 7 months from March to September. I am filling a vehicular safety complaint that Toyota has not addressed the recall in a timely manner which could cause inadvertent deployment of the air bags or seat belt pretensioners causing injury.

Re:report receipt date: oct 17, 2013 NHTSA campaign number: 13v442000 component(s): air bags , electrical system , equipment Toyota needs to correct the defective drain line. The condensate that is not draining out of the evaporator is encouraging the growth of mold in the evaporator with an accompanying obnoxious odor. Could the mold be a toxic mold? the root problem needs to be solved.
