Don't buy a used Toyota

On a serious note I'd look up recalls before purchase. I didn't when we got my wife's 09 Venza in 2014 (because of past toyota reliability experience) . From 2007-2009 (i think , may be more?) on 3.5 V6 the oil cooler lines were faulty ; they were rubber when they should have been steel . Ours blew out a few months ago at 165K ; had no idea and drove it about 10 miles with no oil (at least judging by the trail?). Changed oil line added oil and it's like nothing happened. It may blow up tomorrow? but it's been a good one aside from that 1 issue as far as i know.
