Description of the problem	Almost constant sulpher smell. Dealer states that they have no knowledge of problem, and no tsb's. They tell me to keep rear window closed.

Toyota needs to remedy the problem asap, or a class action suit should be filed. This problem has soured me on toyota products for good.
