| Description of the problem | While looking into a rear suspension problem, it was observed that the remedy for recall 13v-383 was not performed properly on one side of the car. Not enough epoxy was used on one end of the suspension arm, so there is a gap in the epoxy that extends to the adjusting tube nut. That side is also out of alignment. The toyota service center did not redo the fix as requested. The service manager forwarded a photo to a district rep to make a decision. Over two weeks now without a response. |
