Overview & Reviews

Front-seat side airbags and two-row side curtain airbags are standard on the 2007 Toyota Highlander. Toyota's midsize crossover SUV also gets revised headlights this year.

• Rides and handles like a Camry, smooth V6 engine or fuel-efficient four-cylinder, all major safety features standard.

• Poor access to optional third-row seat, bland personality, not as good a value as it once was.

  Dont Buy. Unsafe and Irritating - 2007 Toyota Highlander
  By garywi - August 3 - 3:03 pm

  Problems: 1. Excessive engine vibration transmitted through steering column. 2. Excessive front braking, front brakes grab, seem out of proportion with back. Braking consistency varies. 3. Cold idle too high, 1950 RPM, transmission slams into gear. 4. Engine idle, loud resonance or “boominess”, growl in first gear. 5. Transmission erratic with inappropriate shifting. Transmission always shifting up to 5th gear at slow speeds, pushing car forward faster when not desired. Car will not downshift when appropriate. Car will drive for a mile without gas pedal input, stuck in 5th gear at 900 RPM. Car is easier to stop if put in neutral. Excessive braking to keep car from surging forward.

  Disappointed - 2007 Toyota Highlander
  By Martha Sanford - March 31 - 8:26 am

  I was disappointed in the ride. It sure didnt compare to my former Mercury Mountaineer. However the handling is very agile. Wish I had noticed how bland the cars exterior was in comparison to other suvs.

  you get what you pay for - 2007 Toyota Highlander
  By Jane - April 28 - 2:20 pm

  I had agreed to trade my 04 Lexus GX 470 in because of dismal fuel economy, and because my son is in college and we still needed an SUV I was suckered in to this. Well, needless to say you get what you pay for, the design both inside and out is pathetic and the ride quality is just as bad ( with floaty feel and horribly weighted steering.) Problems: 1. Excessive engine vibration transmitted through steering column. 2. Excessive front braking, front brakes grab, seem out of proportion with back. Braking consistency varies. 3. Engine idle, loud resonance or “boominess”, growl in first gear. 5. Transmission erratic with inappropria erratic with inappropriate shifting.
