Model Years Affected: 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2007

Average Mileage: 120,883 mi (13,300 mi - 175,000 mi)

Verified

On higher mileage vehicles, an engine misfire may develop and/or the Check Engine Light may illuminate due to a failed ignition coil. It is not uncommon to replace all the coils when the first one fails in order to prevent return trips to the repair shop.

    I have had all the ignition coils replaced twice and some three times in the last two years and am continuing to still have problems. The check engine light will come on and it will die without notice or will run rough. Each time is taken to the mechanic it is the ignition coils and usually only one cylinder each time.

    So far I've had 2 coils replaced and now it's only about 2 months later I'm getting another reading that another coil has failed. Never had this problem with any of the other cars I've ever owned for over 30 yrs. Back to the dealership tomorrow and feel they should fix this problem once and for all at their expense. If these coils are defective, then Toyota should foot the bill!
