VISIBILITY:SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY

driving down interstate with moon roof/sun roof open, the moon roof/sun roof shattered into a gazillion pieces. there was no sound of a rock or other projectile hitting the moon roof/sun roof. it just rained glass down on us without warning. luckily my husband was wearing a ball cap that protected his eyes, but it could have blinded someone and caused an accident. i cut stained glass so am familiar with how glass breaks. i believe the panoramic moon roof/sun roof is a design defect, which resulted in a stress fracture. i have pictures that clearly show both sides of the moon/sun roof tore simultaneously. all this from an alleged "rock". i don't think so.

SEATS

the head restraint or head rest is positioned so that it pushes my head forward in an unnatural angle. it applies pressure that causes a severe headache after driving 15 to 20 minutes with my head pushed forward so far. there is no adjustment of the head restraint angle with respect to the angle of the back support to correct the unnatural angle. the dealer will not do anything to correct the problem saying that they had contacted the individual they deal with at toyota baltimore area sales who said: that is the way the head restraint is designed and that i bought the car and there was nothing they could do to correct the problem. the dealer said that the head rest could be reversed which would eliminate the problem but that they could not tell me to do this because this negated the crash testing done for government approvals. they indicated that other people have had this problem and had reversed the head restraint, but that they could not recommend this. however when the head rest is reversed, there is a large gap between the restraint and my head that is not safe in the event of a rear end collision. the fact that a number of other people, have reversed the restraint in strong evidence that this is a common problem with toyota vehicles that needs to be corrected.

my venza has a metric speedometer with mph numbers painted on the same face as the metric ones the problem i have is that in the day time the mph numbers are almost impossible to read due to the paint rendering them too dull . this is a major driving distraction due to it taking the drivers focus off the road. maybe toyota should go to a digital readout that converts the display to show only mph when needed . thank you for allowing me time to vent...

SERVICE BRAKES

directly above the brake pedal (under the dash cover) is a vent and the obd connector -- their proximity is too close to the brake pedal. the position of these items is a real safety concern, since people with large feet/shoes will hit the vent/connector -- possibly preventing them from applying the brakes in a timely fashion, or at all. the vent and connector should be moved to the left so that there is no impediment in moving the driver's foot frm the gas to the brake pedal.
