 Description of the problemOur 2015 highlander steering intermittently locks up and has a complete loss of power. First happened when starting the vehicle and had to sit and start and stop over 15 times and the steering finally came back. We immediately contacted toyota and they said this vehicle had no recalled parts and there is no problem. When it happened the second time we took it in and they said it had a bad battery and the problem was fixed. We paid a hefty service fee and paid for a really expensive battery. Two days later it happened again and while moving on a city street about 35/40 mph. We got over safely but was so dangerous. Took it back to toyota and they are telling us the vehicle has no problem and we just need to use it till it happens again and bring it back! If we don't kill ourselves or another motorist! After doing our own research we find our car is doing exactly what the vehicles with the recall are doing but they will not replace the eps system and toyota is putting us back on the road in a dangerous vehicle. So now we only have one vehicle and struggling to get by. I find it completely unacceptable that toyota customer relations was of no help and rude on the phone. Now we have bought a $40,000. 00 car we can not drive and be safe on the road with. How can they not help us and fix the problem? We will have to get a second opinion and end up paying more money to fix the problem. Thanks toyota we will not buy another.
