Two complaints: vehicle shifts very harshly when placed into drive when engine is cold. While the vehicle is moving and applying the brakes, there is a mild to loud clunking sound. On two occasions the noise was so loud, the check engine light came on, and a transmission sensor had to be replaced. Fortunetly, I have a great service dept at Toyota. They understood my complaint and is currently replacing the transmission.
