Just a little tidbit, the platform the FJ was built on is the Prado, and it had the same issues of ripping body panels. There's no guarantee that the new FJ's are reliable, and some people have even been having their frames rip at the crossmembers.
Something is up with these vehicles, and Toyota is trying to sweep it under the rug until they stop producing the FJC. They've already cancelled any updates to it. I wouldn't step into one personally...

I think every car has is linked to some bad rumor in every way, some are true. For instance if i would have asked about a hummer in a fj forum im sure i would have gotten flooded with all kinds of nonsense. For me its the smart thing to do, and i dont think that there is anything out there more reliable than a Honda or a toyota"ill get flamed for this but its simply my opinion based on what ive seen". And if your right and it does not hold up, thats what warrenties are for.

*Are* you even reading what I wrote you, or the forum that I linked to?
It's NOT a rumor (heck, its actual OWNERS who found/reported the issue) and THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROBLEM, go read the hundreds of pages on the issue, Toyota is screwing their own customers over.
Whatever, it's your truck...

Re: My h2's done with
Yes Tata now owns jag and rover. O and guess what, the engines fine. Long story im still getting out of it my father was gonna cut me a check for 13k and replace the motor for 3 and use the h3 to tow behind his RV instead of the jeep he currently uses. He got the motor out today and it was perfectly fine a bolt had backed off on the trans causing the motor to be locked up, fcking pos dealer they almost got away with it and im sure we would have never gotten the truth. Im still getting out of it because within the next year im gonna have to get something new anyways and it would be smarter for me to do it now instead of waiting. Ill keep you guys posted on everything i didnt get much out of my dad on the phone he was a bit pissed.
