Also please check out the statistics and reliability analysis of Toyota Highlander Hybrid based on all problems reported for the Highlander Hybrid.
The gas tank fell partially off and dragged on the road. I was driving on city streets, turning right at 5 mph when I heard a loud pop/snap sound and then a terrible sound of something dragging under the car. Fortunately, I could pull over and stop within 50 feet. The gas tank was not damaged significantly (it passed a pressure test at the dealership). The gas tank is attached with two straps, fore and aft. The right sides of both straps snapped very close to where the straps are bolted to the main body in a place that could not have possibly been damaged. The flat bed truck driver who delivered the vehicle to berkeley Toyota noted that there were no signs that the vehicle had been abused in any way. He also argued that had this happened on the freeway at high speed, it could have been quite dangerous.
