Consumer Description

AC CONDENSER STATED LEAKING ON 12/18/2011. STEAM WAS COMING OUT OF FRONT OF THE CAR AS IT WAS PARKED AT A STORE. I NOTICED THIS WHEN I WAS EXITING THE STORE. TWO GARAGES CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS THE CONDENSER. I WENT TO DO RESEARCH ON THE CONDENSER ONLINE AND THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT DEFECTIVE CONDENSERS ON THE 2005 AND 2006 COROLLA APPEARED ON THE WEB. PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED ON THE 2007 AND AFTER COROLLA. CONDENSER HAS TO PROTECTION. COULD HAVE THE CONDENSER REPLACED TODAY AND BECAUSE OF NO PROTECTION, THE PROBLEM COULD HAPPEN AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. VERY POOR DESIGN...THIS LEAVES THE OWNERS OF 2005 AND 2006 COROLLAS OUT IN THE COLD! WHY NO RECALL??? ONE OF THE GARAGES THAT I WENT TO WAY A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP...THEY WANT $735 (ESTIMATE) TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IT WAS POOR DESIGN! I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR HEIR MISTAKE! *TR
