NHTSA Complaint #10232468 — 2004 TOYOTA COROLLA

JUNE 24 I TOOK MY 2004 TOYOTA COROLLA -- VIN [XXX] --- IN FOR THE RECALL SSC # 80A 03-04 FRONT DOOR GLASS BOLTS SAFETY RECALL. THE WINDOW APPEARED TO BE IN WORKING ORDER, WHEN I PICKED IT UP. THE WINDOW CAME TO A TIGHT SEAL AT THE UPPER PART OF THE WINDOW. JUNE 25, THE WINDOW IS OFF TRACK AGAIN LEAVING A GAP AT THE UPPER PORTION WHEN THE WINDOW ROLLS UP! TOYOTA SAID THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE WEATHER STRIPPING. THE WINDOW BECAUSE IT WENT OFF TRACK BECAUSE OF A DEFECT AT THE FACTORY, MADE THE RUBBER AROUND THE WINDOW ALL LOOSE AND MAYBE AFFECTING THE WINDOW NOW. I CAN SEE HOW THE STRIPPING HAS FORMED IN A WAY THAT IT MIGHT PUSH THE WINDOW AWAY FROM THE INNER TRACK -- WHEN WINDOW GOES UP, THE STRIPPING IS LOOSE AND THE WINDOW MOVES AS GOING UP. I PERSONALLY THINK TOYOTA IS GETTING THE EASY WAY OUT OF THIS. ON A SIDE NOTE.. I ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDOW CAUSE IT SHATTERED ON ME, THANK GOD I HAD TINT ON THE WINDOW. I TOOK IT TO A PRIVATE BUSINESS, AND JUST MY LUCK, CANT FIND THE RECEIPT. SO I WON'T GET REIMBURSE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
