| Description of the problem | We received a ssc 70b recall notice. About 3 wks ago i called toyota of hollywood to schedule an appointment to have the part replaced. They told me they were out, and that they would call me when they had it. I called them today and they said that i was placed on a waiting list. That they are getting about 1 piece per week and that it will take aprox another 6 weeks. This is crazy!!! Does an accident has to happens before they do something to fix the problem in a timing matter? I don't want to be a victim. *jb |
