    At highway speed, all lights flicker on then lost all power.......oilline had leaked on alternator belt causing loss of power. Luckily power loss prevented engine damage from oil leak. We had not been notified by toyota about the oil line problem or recall.....only after a local garage fixed the line did i find out about the recall....i would had it replaced earlier if i had been notified. *tr

    Piston slap on toyota 3.5 l v6 since new. Very loud when cold in cooler temperatures..ca arbitrator agrees with toyota that this is normal for this engine. I cannot sell this car with this noise but toyota doesn't care. Toyota has had a few complaints but no failures yet. Piston slap wears the piston prematurely and could in my opinion lead to failure. This is my 2nd complaint to you people for the same issue. *tr
