CarComplaints.com Notes: Although the 2003 model year is the "worst" model year for the 4Runner, it's not really bad at all -- mainly it's just that the other 4Runner model years are even better. Howver the 2003 model year has no major problems & no unexpected problems for a 17-year old vehicle. We award the 2003 4Runner our Seal of Awesome, since overall versus other comparable models of the same age, it's very reliable.
Initially the 4th generation (2003 - 2009) 4Runner didn't earn our top "Seal of Awesome" rating because it received poor crash test ratings for rear impacts. However it's proven to have one of the lowest driver death rates out of all vehicles (not just SUVs), so we've bumped it back up to our top award.

There is a recall from Toyota on dashboards. Toyota does not say it is a safety recall but why has might air bag light come on. Also my disc are stuck in the player and not working. Seems to me this is all related to the dashboard problems. I have been on the new dashboard list since September. It is now becoming annoying that I am getting nowhere with Toyota.
