| Description of the problem | My car has been making a steering well/under the hood poping noise since the day i purchased it. The dealership where i purchased it knows where it is coming from, the steering wheel and possibly tension belt, but has told me to hold off until a recall. My mother in another state, as well as my cousin has the same issue. If toyota has a lead on the market, why can't they honestly honor their repairs. |
