Reputation for Reliability

Most will agree that the Toyota brand has developed an outstanding reputation for longevity. Drivers often report their vehicles lasting 200,000-250,000 miles with proper care, and a few tell stories of cars racking up as much as 500,000 miles. Even so, like every auto line, your Toyota will need repairs from time to time. That's where King's Auto Service in Raleigh, North Carolina, can help. We not only specialize in domestic makes, but we also take care of all Asian brands, including your hybrid or electric car.

Common Repairs

No matter how fabulous an auto brand may be, there will be some issues that are reported more frequently than expected. While this does not diminish the overall reliability of the line, it's helpful to know what to watch for so that you can catch any potential problems with your Toyota early. For instance, the braking system has been the subject of several recalls. Fortunately, newer models seem to suffer less from this phenomenon, a sign that the underlying causes have been addressed by the manufacturer. Further, routine brake service, a best practice for any driver, will help detect developing problems before they become severe. Additionally, pumps seem to need replacing sooner than anticipated. This applies to both the fuel and water pumps in some models. Watch for overheating and unplanned revving/failure to start. Finally, beware of engine sludge formation. While this has been an owner complaint, it is yet another issue that we can head off with an appropriate plan of preventive maintenance services.
