Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2003 toyota 4runner v6 limited - large amounts of exhaust fumes in the cabin. exhaust fumes are experienced regardless of adjustments to environmental controls, including when the air conditioner is running and recirculation on. exhaust fumes appear to be from the 4runner. all occupants become nauseous and experience significant eye irritation. i have significant concerns for the safety and health of my family, short and long term. i have discussed this issue with two local toyota dealers. they are unable to fix the problem and appear to be avoiding the specific issue of exhaust fumes in the cabin. they try to redirect the issue to the sulfur smell that the vehicle emits. i don't care about the sulfur smell, but i have real concerns about the exhaust fumes in the cabin. *la
