| Description of the problem | My vehicle is the subject of a recall for a defective takata airbag inflator. The vehicle was purchased in arizona a few years ago, and i live in san diego, ca. I have a vacation home in baja california sur, mexico. I keep the toyota sequoia at that home in mexico, about 900 miles from california. There is a toyota dealer in san jose del cabo who could make the repair. I do not want to drive the vehicle 1800 miles round trip to the usa in order to have the repair done in the usa. Toyota has refused to allow its dealer in san jose del cabo to make the repair. I would like to have you to require toyota to repair my vehicle purchased in the united states by a u. S. Citizen in mexico. |
