Consumer Description

THE A/C CONDENSER WAS REPLACED DUE TO TOYOTA'S ADMITTED DESIGN FLAW AS PER THEIR TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN AC002-06 TITLED LOWER GRILLE MESH PROTECTION COVER. WHICH INFORMS AN OWNER THAT THEIR A/C CONDENSER IS UNPROTECTED WHICH WILL COST THEM $590. HOWEVER, TOYOTA FAILED TO BACK THEIR PRODUCT UP BY REIMBURSING IT. THIS IS SAFETY HAZARD IN THE SOUTHWEST BECAUSE OF THE EXTREME HEAT AND IF SOMEONE WITH CHILDREN GOES TO TURN THEIR AIR CONDITIONING ON AND IT DOES NOT WORK THIS POSES HEALTH RISKS. *TR
