Description of the problem	When driving the heater or the air will just come on, usually when you would drive over a rough spot in the street. Usually the air will come on in the winter and the heater will come on in summer. Call toyota they said cost about 800. 00. I had it fix by an independent garage. It still cost me 370. 00. Then i go on line and out there's hundreds if not lots more people that have the same problem. I think since there is so many people that this same problem that toyota should reimburse us at least partly.
