| Description of the problem | Rear suspension arm (tie rods) fixed under recall campaign 13v 383000 have become loose. After several calls to the manufacturer and to two different dealers, toyota has denied to help with the cost of repairs. Obviously their recall "fix" has not worked and i think they should be held responsible for the repairs due to this fact. |
