Description of the problem | High beam headlamps stop working. Replacement bulbs burn out prematurely. Toyota refuses to fix even though they had a customer support bulletin. Toyota had incorrect address on file so i did not receive bulletin within warranty enhancement period (1 month late). Dealer promised to check but over the course of 4 months, did not contact toyota. My direct contact to toyota was then 5 months outside of warranty. High beam bulbs replaced twice, and still problems on a regular basis. |
