Equipment problem #1

Toyota complaint, dangerous computer program, can cause death. Toyota programs the car computer to post a "maintenance required" sign to pop up on the dash. It has a "red triangle" also to get your attention. The sign stays on constantly until you take your vehicle into Toyota to be serviced. This sign is very very distracting while driving because you can not see your speed that is hidden by the sign when you try to set your cruise control. I have run off the road several times while trying to adjust my cruise control and could not see it because of the maintenance sign. It is a very dangerous sign and Toyota should remove it from the computer program. I hope someone files a class action law suit against Toyota to force Toyota to remove the maintenance reminder sign from the computer. Rolin choate, sunlion@msn. Com.

Carrier/rack problem #2

While driving straight on a clear and sunny day on a highway with few surrounding vehicles, what seemed like explosion was felt and heard. A quick assessment was made to determine that there was no road debris, the tires did not blow out, and there was no issue with any surrounding cars. While the driver sought a safe place to pull over, the passenger looked around the vehicle to find all windows in tact and slightly opened the moon shade, to discover that the sunroof was cracked. After pulling over, the sunroof was inspected from the exterior and the glass was noticeably bowed outward, suggesting an explosion vs. An article hitting the glass to cause the break. Numerous accounts of sunroof explosions have been found online.
