 Description of the problemThe display screen for the radio, navigation, maintenance reminders, hands free phone use, back-up camera, etc. Suddenly stopped working when started my car. The screen only shows an icon with a status bar that makes it appear that the computer that operates this system is trying to restart. The screen its self works, but the computer won't boot-up. This is distracting while driving, and prevents the use of all the safety features that rely on it's function. I have done extensive reading on the internet and have found that this is a common problem in 2014-2016 toyota vehicles that have the premium entune system with navigation. They admittedly state that the fugitsu component is faulty and they have sense started using a panasonic unit to avoid future problems. Toyota prices the replacement part at $3450. This is unacceptable, when they know that the problem is not the fault of the car owner, but rather a faulty part that was used during the manufacture of the vehicle. According to the post of one toyota technician, toyota has replaced 1 million of these units, but unless the vehicle is still under warranty they refuse to cover the repair cost because toyota does not think this malfunction is a safety issue a recall or warranty extension has not been issued. I think it is a safety issue when the hands-free function does not work and the reverse camera does not work. Also an inoperable navigation system could be a safety issue too. I have tried to reset the radio, do a hard reset by holding the power button and disconnecting the battery. Nothing works. I called toyota and they quoted me more than $3600 for the repair. This is unacceptable.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
