This car is ergonomically sound. I really enjoy how comfortable it is. Road trips are fantastic in this vehicle. Even better than the '07 Camry I had before. It provides a very smooth ride yet it has a beefy enough suspension and clearance to handle some of the more challenged roads in America. Even though I have the 2.7 liter DOHC engine, the performance is sound. Coupled with the 6 speed transmission, it makes carrying five passengers and luggage effortless.

I tested a lot of vehicles before leasing the Venza. Equinox had a rough acceleration it pulled to the right also had clumbsy dash board, cheap Navi plastic cover, Ford Edge got worse mpg's, Crosstour had a spoiler going through the back window(aka Aztek), Buick Lacrosse looked great, but hit head trying to enter the vehicle, tight seat, couldn't see over steering wheel without raising seat really high and had my head scratching the roof. I tried a lot of vehicles and Venza proved the best fit, mpg's and price with options. Wouldn't change the vehicle other than a few minor changes listed in consrunning through the rear window (Aztek),

It was a good car for the first few years. But its had alot of weird things replaced also. $1600 bill = steering column at 55,000 miles. Its ate through 3 alternators so far. Each repair bill being $700 due to the big V6 engine and weird alternator placement. The 3rd one just crapped out today. Kind of why im writing this review. $750 bill = Oil cooler sprang a massive leak at 140,000 miles. It happened while driving home and didnt notice until we got home and seen the trail of oil.. After some research, Toyota released a extended warranty on the oil coolers for the 3.5 V6. Most consumers suffered blown engines because the leaks are so massive your oil will drain in minutes (my warranty was expired by months... of course). The wheel bearings are on the way out, which will be $500 possibly more if the wheel hub is bad too. I really thought Toyotas were built to last, it is a strong car do not get me wrong. Ive taken it across the USA a few times. But everything with this car is expensive to replace. If my credit was better, the thing would've been traded by now. But im stuck with the money pit. At 145,000 miles today. *Still trucking along at 160,000 miles" no issues since then

I have 1,500 miles on my brand new Venza 4cyl AWD, and I have knocking in the engine. This happens every day when I put it in drive and go. This vehicle is very deceiving when you initially buy it. Once you have been in it awhile, you realize all the fancy stuff surrounding you masks the quality problems. The noise level as other blogs are saying is true, loud. I'm concerned with other problems too, the driver window when half way down makes a rattle noise and the steering wheel when turning makes a ticking noise. I have owned a 89 Camry and 2000 4Runner and always sworn by Toyota, so I ignored all the bad PR and went out and bought this Venza. I should have listened to the news!

If you bought your previous vehicle five years or more ago, you will find the Venza a major step up in security and comfort. As a package, the multiple air bags, stability control, AWD, and crash scores top anything one could have bought, at any price, just a few years ago. Dual climate control, exceptionally well lit info displays, sound system, seating, and navigation system provide excellent comfort. This is a quiet car that gives one a feeling of confidence in a variety of driving conditions. We looked at Lexus RX350, Acura MDX, Audi Q7. Venza is a newer platform and many, many thousands less with competitive handling and all the important comfort features.
