CarComplaints.com Notes: Although it has a stellar record in terms of vehicle problems, 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.

handle is all gummy and now the rear door will not open

Can't understand why this has not been recalled. I am reading all over the internet that alot and I mean ALOT of people experience problems with the melting of the handle on the rear hatch door and the non opening. My back hatch is like vapor locked I hate this car.
