| Description of the problem | Toyota did a recall on the dash of the cars getting sticky and cracking. They indicated they were replacing all of these affected. This notice came to me in 2015. I was told by the dealer, autoway toyota in clearwater, fl. That i was 96 on the replacement list with them. I just called one year later to check status and they said i was #89. They indicated they only get a few replacement dashes a week and they could give me no answer how much longer it would be. Keep in mind you cannot sell or trade the car given the cracked dash. I called toyota and they said they were only producing a few new dashes per day and that they had over 1 mill. Claims. I don't feel this is acceptable and i wondered if you could help or whether i should write to the attorney general. |
