| Description of the problem | I received notification of the recall and took my vehicle to the dealer in october 2013. The dealer determined my car needed the recall part fixed. I was notified that due to availability of parts the recall could not be done until mid-february 2014. I called the dealer and toyota on 2/10/14 who both tell me it would be "mid-february." it was mid-february but they didn't know when the parts would be received. I called today, 2/26/14, and now being told that it would be between "mid-february and mid-march" but they don't know when the dealer would receive the parts to fix it. In the meantime, the car continues to make the grinding sound. Toyota continues to give the run around on this repair. This is not acceptable when i took the car to the dealer in october! |
