2018 Toyota C-HR

My Toyota chr 2018 transmission died on me and left me and my family stranded as it’s our only car and can’t afford anything else. Toyota in Salinas California told me 4 months ago it was the transmission making weird noises they’ve quoted $13,000 with no warning lights popping up. There is a lot people complaining about the same issue on the cvt transmission for Toyota

Transmission failure at 102,000 miles. Purchased used at 70,000 miles. Dealership quoted almost $12,000 to replace transmission. No warning lights or warning messages. No issue(s) ever noted at routine maintenance at dealership. Took car to dealership because car was making a grumbling noise when driven. This is a known issue with 2018 Toyota CH-Rs.

I have a 2018 chr and the transmission start make a noise so i bring the car to the Toyota dealer and the transmission shift fine is making noise like some baring or gear is going bad so they told me the transmission needs to be replaced and the cost is $9000 plus labor total $11000 so a cost more than the car so I don’t know why Toyota use this type of transmission if the cost so much is not getting reliable anymore that is insane they need to open a recall for this is totally ripping off what they do hopefully they will get a solution for that is not fair are several complaints for the same problems if they use the cvt transmission they supposed to have at least a fair price to replace it to be affordable to the consumer

My Toyota CH-R 2018, has an horrible noise due to CVT transmission problems. Because the bearing is the cause of the failure, and that the failure is a result of a manufacturer’s defect in the transmission. warranty expired, but why the noise was not diagnosed as a pending failure during one of the regular service appointments. I also have learned that they are many vehicles with this same issue.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.

My car has been making a whinny noise while I drive no matter how far with 84,000 miles also when I come to a complete stop the car starts vibrating but in any other gears it doesn’t and when I start driving again the vibrating stops. No lights have popped on my screen. Both Toyota dealership in Salinas California and another mechanic shop have told me upon inspections it is my car transmission going bad. This is my only car and only way to get around
