| Description of the problem | I had a catastrophic oil leak all over my driveway and garage. Reseached history of this type and found it was it was a rubber hose associated with oil transfer (also called the v v t 1 actuator hose. A voluntary recall on this part ended in 2013. I will have it fixed by a local car repair shop but if this is a known part failure for years, why would toyota not make a mandatory recall of this faulty part? My 2009 toyota sienna which i just purchased 2 months ago will now have a major car repair. |
