Once after parking and then twice while driving on a highway, the check hybrid system light, the vsc light, the check engine light, and the caution light all illuminated and the vehicle lost all power including steering assistance . Each time requiring multiple key turns to restart the vehicle into limp home mode. This vehicle has been repaired once before for a similar issue which occurred while driving up a hill in moderate traffic. The tank is full of fuel, the tires are less than a year old, and the vehicle undergoes regular maintenance(which includes a new battery as the one bought from Toyota had a few dead cells after only a year or two). I've read multiple complaints about this online while searching for the underlying issue and there seems to be a related recall that doesn't include my VIN.
06 Highlander hybrid and am unable to fill gas tank without nozzle clicking off thirty or more times. Doesn't seem to matter what angle, brand of gas or distance. -- my technician said a new gas tank need to be replace and it cost $1700. . . This parts should be a safety measure and work during the live of the vehicle. . . . Toyota sell me defective fuel tank.
