Description of the problem | Throttle body failure, engine shuts down, will restart in limp mode. Corroded defective throttle body. New part on order from toyota. $900 repair. This also happened in 2007 an $850 repair. I called toyota in 2007 and again this time. Toyota refuses to provide new throttle body or pay for repair. I assert this is a design and safety problem that toyota should repair or recall at no charge. I purchased car new and have been a loyal toyota customer. Purchased four new toyota cars since 2002. Why would i purchase another car from toyota? |
