Consumer Description

2002 TOYOTA SEQUOIA LIMITED 4WD. AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING AFTER 71,000 MILES. AS A RESULT, THE DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK. WINDSHIELD AND SIDE MIRRORS FOG UP DURING COLD/RAIN. CANNOT SEE CAUSING DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. HAVE TO OPEN WINDOWS IN SNOW/RAIN/COLD. NEED NEW AIR COMPRESSOR. TOYOTA SAID THEY ARE AWARE OF THE DEFECTIVE COMPRESSORS BUT I AM RESPONSIBLE TO REPLACE AT A COST OF OVER $3,000. I FEEL THE COMPRESSOR SHOULD NOT HAVE BROKEN AFTER SO FEW MILES AND TOYOTA HAS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN OUT THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. MANY, MANY OTHERS ONLINE HAVE REPORTED THE SAME DEFECTIVE COMPRESSOR. I FEEL TOYOTA SHOULD PAY FOR ALL OR PART OF THE REPAIR ON A $45,000 TRUCK THAT HAS SO FEW MILES. *TR
