Body SUVTransmission Automatic (S8)

The 2017 Toyota Land Cruiser is an SUV that calls for 7.90 qt of engine oil and accepts either 0W‑20 or 5W‑20 viscosity. It is equipped with an eight‑speed automatic transmission and carries an EPA fuel‑economy rating of 13 mpg city, 18 mpg highway and 15 mpg combined. Reliability records for the year show a total of four owner complaints, the most frequent concerning air bags and seat belts, along with a single recall.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 10,000 mi; spark plugs at 120,000 mi; coolant every 50,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 50,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

In the federal record, the 2017 Toyota Land Cruiser logged 4 complaints, 1 recall, 0 investigations and 178 TSBs. That complaint level matches the 4 complaints recorded in 2016 and 2018, while recalls dropped from 3 in 2016 to 2 in 2018, and the 2015 model showed 2 complaints and 4 recalls. Air Bags and Seat Belts together represented the largest share of complaints, and the 2017 figure sits within the low‑complaint tail of the generation’s arc. Because the 2017 model exhibits minimal complaint volume and only a single recall, it represents a solid year to purchase provided the recall remedy has been completed.
