| Description of the problem | Why have my odi's not been addressed ? 10183308, 10288886, 10293097, 10293888, 10314732. I have a 2006 toyota tundra that has problems with it since nov. 2006. That is when i purchased it. Unfortunately for me i didn't have repair orders written up. I am not on the recall list and that's fine. But regardless i want my vehicle fixed. I was in an accident in oct. 2009 due to sua. I reported it to my dealer and my insurance carrier. The vehicle was looked at by a factory rep. It was decided by toyota that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. I was told by toyota to get an estimate on repairs. That was a preliminary estimate of just under $2000. 00. I was told not to have the repairs done until i heard from toyota. To this day of march 5, 2010 the vehicle has not been repaired. I chose not to have the truck fixed because i was hoping toyota would, as mr. Burton from texas told jim lentz, "if you know where a vehicle is that needs to be investigated go get that vehicle, i don't care if it cost one hundred thousand dollars, go get that vehicle. I must say mr. Lahood you have done that. This is the reason mine is not repaired. I have been writing emails to anyone that cared. The truck is still here? I have been in contact with people from toyota about getting my vehicle purchased back and then they can test it. I'm reminded all the time that mine is not on the recall list. I say so what! It is not a safe vehicle to drive, my wife will not drive the truck and doesn't even want to be a passenger. It is a time bomb waiting to go off. Likened to russian roulette whenever you turn the ignition switch. I know that you have gone out and "got that vehicle". When sir, will you get mine? I hate wasting money to fix something that needs to be dismantled and gone trough with a fine tooth comb. I also share the responsibility to any person that may buy the vehicle to disclose the imperfections about the vehicle. Please help!!!! |
