Description of the problem | Dealer doesn't have part and won't order part unless i bring the car in first and have air bag disconnected on passenger side. Explained i don't carry passenger's and don't need this done, just get the part and i will bring car in. Talked to toyota and that's the conditions set by them to get part replaced. It will cost me at least a full day by going twice to get part replaced as dealer is an hour away from me. I hope it's not the case but it feels as if the manufacturer is deliberately making it more difficult to have defective part replaced to prevent them from paying more claims? |
