2012 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER — Complaint #1723335
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS filed January 29, 2021
NHTSA complaint #1723335 (ODI reference 11391212) concerns a 2012 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER and was filed on January 29, 2021. The owner reports the failure occurred on January 29, 2021. The report was geocoded to Colorado based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as tires:pressure monitoring and regulating systems, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. No VIN was supplied by the filer, so this complaint contributes to model-year trend data but cannot be tied to a specific vehicle.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same TOYOTA HIGHLANDER cohort independently describe similar tires:pressure monitoring and regulating systems failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2012 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
