My paid cash for this toyota avalon $5000 worth $2200 the car has 6 recalls none of which were ever investigated by toyota or anyone else. I first got the car started driving and the belt started smoking before 3 yrs the battery was changed out by advanced auto free / we paid for a new belt then the tire went out 2 x found out theirs a wheel alignment issue with the arms that need replacing toy dealer and american best recommended new arms amer best priced $800 toy dealer priced $3-5k among brakes wipers…
At 7 years old, my toyota avalon is leaking from the body of the rack and pinion gear. Dealer service states that 'this happens'. Concerned that leak may cause loss of power steering while driving causing driver to over or understeer the vehicle. Could be considered for a possible safety issue.
