Description of the problem | Toyota advertises and represents that the highlander hybrid′s fuel tank capacity is 17. 1 gallons, and based on its 35 mpg rating, the range should be about 600 miles. However, i am not able to fill the tank by more than 12 gallons thus reducing my range to 420 miles. I believe there is a defect in the newly designed saddle tank which prohibits the tank from being filled completely thus cheating me out of about 180 miles of driving range. |
