 Description of the problemMy daughter detected burning plastic smell inside the car while driving on a local street, stopped the car and saw black smoke coming out from the side of the window master switch and the bottom of the driver side door. I remembered there was a recall regarding the fire hazard of the master switch and took the car to the dealership on april 15. They informed me that my car was not on the recall list and it will be my responsibility to repair it. I called and open a case (# [xxx]) with their customer relationship department while i was waiting at the dealership for regular maintenance, reporting that the problem my car is experiencing proves that the recall coverage was too narrow and it is endangering all the owners that were not covered. The rep. ([xxx]) promised to provide me an answer in 2 business days but the call back never happened. As you are the government watchdog on vehicle safety issue, i am reporting to you the potential life threatening hazard of this particular vehicle model and look forward to your assistance to have this hazard resolved by toyota of usa.
