Used 2012 Toyota Highlander 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
Highland 2012 - Problems
Bought this suv new - 34,000 down the drain. I have lost 4 days of pay because I had to bring in this vehicle 4 times already. It has 19,000. The rubber fell off the drivers side window, then the window fell off the track - wouldn't close, the my screen read that my power steering is out to pull over the car and call the dealer, now my screen is reading my ABS is out - REALLY? 4 Times for service is way too much for a $34,000 vehicle

Love the Highlander - All Around Great SUV
I absolutely love my 2012 Highlander, Base 3.5 L V-6 AWD. It currently has 15,000 miles on it. It's a nice driving vehicle with comfortable ride and outstanding reliability. It's a tank in the NY snow and backs up my steep driveway like a breeze - no spinning, slipping, etc......unlike my 2003 Ford Escape 4x4 which had a tough time backing up the driveway. I went on a recent trip to PA and the highlander handled the hilly terrain with ease and the best part is the gas mileage - averaged 25 mpg highway! I was shocked it did so well and was very impressed. That's better than the 23 mpg hwy rating on the sticker window!

Love my Highlander
I am a Toyota girl. I started off with the Corolla, then upgraded to the Camry. When my Camry was stolen and stripped (rest her soul..parts), it was time to start the car search again. Instinctively I decided on the Highlander but then I decided to actually research rather than go with loyalty. After a month of research, I ended up back at the Highlander. I do not regret my choice what so ever. I purchased in Aug 2012, and I only now feel that my mileage is starting to live up to what was advertised. However, even in the beginning it was the same as my Camry, so I am satisifed. This SUV is perfect for a family with children. I needed more space because of my son, and I love it very much.
84000 miles and still going strong!!
We love the myriad of beverage holders. Besides that it goes through snow like butter, gets great mileage, is quiet, roomy and super comfortable for road trips and has been very reliable. Just change the oil regularly and put on good tires and that's it!! Only a couple hardware fails - door opener handle broke and one of the 12v power outlets stopped working. Other than that everything functions perfectly and it handles great. We've used it to haul a couple big loads of landscaping bricks and it handled like a champ. Just a nice reliable, comfortable, fairly economical go to vehicle!
