I'm having problems with my 2008 Highlander alarm as well. What did your dealer end up doing to fix this problem?

Highlander 2008 Review by ronn

Can someone tell me why the 2008 review by the editors is not out yet, and the 2009 is already listed? With so many consumer reviews that are excellent, why has the 2008 Highlander not been rated?
As for the consumer ratings, it has one of the most reviews of any SUV out there.

THANKS to everyone who documented your problems/solutions with alarms going off. I have the same problem, started about a week ago. Going to print out the note from this forum about "electronic hood sensor" and take it to the dealer with me. Will report back here afterward.

Maintenance Reminder - by mtairyordge

I have a 2008 HL Limited push start. This is my 4th highlander and I know how to reset that maintenance required message on the older model.
 
So I used that procedure on my 2008. No luck.
 
Did it change? Can someone post it so I can recheck my self.
 
Thanks -- - - - Geez!

Update on my own post regarding excessive panic alarms:
 
Thanks to the hints on this forum (regarding the hood sensor switch), I may have solved my problem on my own. I opened the hood, checked for obstructions, and found a "pop rivet" (my words) near the latch that was loose. It's a little fastener that holds a plastic liner part to the metal frame. Pushed it back in, closed the hood securely. Haven't had an alarm since.
 
Did the fastener/rivet have anything to do with the alarm? Who knows. But something changed. Maybe just reseating/latching the hood did the trick.

You have to get out and push the vehicle and pop the clutch..........LOL no only joking.
 
Thre is a push button start of the engine. Not a bad feture, I like not having a traditional key in my pocket while at work or walking around the store. Only problem is that I sometimes forget to take it with me or even turn the damn car off when exiting the car. But I really do like the feature.
