Love the Dependability of Ride, BUT NOT the Brakes

This model is in serious need of updating. The style is old & outdated. We were going to potentially purchase a new, Platinum model, but we don't want the old style/look. If Toyota doesn't produce a serious update , we'll probably purchase some other SUV. Biggest complaint: The brakes. We have constantly had to replace the pads and rotors all TOO often. Corporate office doesn't seem to care about the issue. They need to use vented rotors, to reduce the heat build up. But, thats expensive too. We've driven across the country a few times and this vehicle has been VERY reliable. The navigation system is in desperate need of updating. Its way behind the times. Radio reception is horrible, compared to our Lexus.

I’ve had my 2018 SR5 for a year now. Absolutely flawless reliability. Tows a 7,000 lb trailer like a dream. Surprisingly capable off-road. I’ve driven through several creeks and done some super thick muddy roads and fields while out hunting. It’s planted and confidence inspiring on icy mountain roads. Incredible for long road trips loaded up with the family, pup, and camping gear. Big enough to sleep in comfortably with the middle seat folded down and a piece of plywood to bridge the gap between the second and third row of seats. It’s shockingly fast for an SUV this big. The engine and transmission combo really work well. The adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitors, and corner sonar indicators make it really comfortable to drive for such a big vehicle. The turn radius is really shockingly tight. The gas mileage is just terrible. Really comically bad. I usually don’t even get to 15 mpg on a tank. Usually 14mpg combined. Maybe 17 mpg on a road trip with all highway use. Update: I’ve now owned the Sequoia for 2 years and have put 50,000 miles on it, bringing it to 70,000 miles total. I love my Sequoia! No maintenance problems, it’s the road tripping king! With a roof cargo rack and trailer hitch carrier, I got 6 people, a 50lb dog, and gear for a week packed into it. We dropped off our luggage and headed up the mountains far past a “turn around you’ll get stuck” sign. Edit: 2023 - still loving it.

I have only had the car for three weeks. It has everything that I wanted in a SUV, 4-wheel drive, all 7 passenger seats can fit adults, and it does not feel like I am driving a bus. (Like the Chevy Suburban) I however feel like I am paying for the 4-wheel drive, as my previous vehicle – a 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan, had more bells and whistles for technology, than this 2016 Sequoia.

I Have been looking for SUV -love Toyota vehicles - traded in a 2011 Avalon for the 2016 sequoia limited - it has the blind spot monitoring which I really liked . I wish it had push start don't understand why Toyota hasn't updated this vehicle . I really love it , very comfortable ride , good visibility , you won't be sorry if you buy this SUV . The gas mileage for this size vehicle is not bad at all . I also looked at Toyota 4 runner but compared to size and price the sequoia was a better deal and 4 runner doesn't offer blind spot monitor and there are a few blind spots in this vehicle . I'm very happy with my decision to get the sequoia .Go Drive one today you won't be sorry .
