There are various solutions that include change of transmission fluid(make sure you use the recommended), cleaning gear strainer and gearbox serving.
• Air condition problem- this problem has also been reported on Axio and Premio. The AC might fail completely or only function at times. The main cause of this issue is in most cases a problem with the compressor and you might have to replace it.
• Loss of power- your car might lose power suddenly, this might be due to worn-out parts of your engine such as spark plugs. However, in most cases, problems with your transmission mean power is not been transmitted as expected, which leads to loss of power.
• Body shape loss- Allion loses its body shape very quickly, this is because the body is made of light material. If the car is hit slightly, it gets noticeable damage. This problem is also available in other Toyota cars such as the Toyota Wish. On the other hand, Toyota Premio which is a sister to the Allion has a much better quality body.
