NHTSA Complaint #10531611 — 2009 TOYOTA SIENNA

2009 TOYOTA SIENNA MINIVAN DEVELOPED CORRODED REAR AIR-CONDITIONING LINES AFTER ONLY 4 YEARS. CORROSION CAUSED COMPLETE LOSS OF A/C COOLANT. IT COST ME $118 TO HAVE THE A/C SYSTEM TESTED ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IT WILL COST ME ANOTHER $1578 TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM...AND THERE'S NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN IN ANOTHER 4 YEARS. DEALERSHIP WON'T HELP. TOYOTA CORPORATE WON'T HELP. IT IS A SCAM THAT THEY USE UNTREATED ALUMINUM A/C LINES THAT THEY ADMIT ARE PRONE TO CORROSION IN NORTHERN CLIMATES WHERE SALT IS USED ON THE ROADS. EASY FIX: PAINT THE A/C LINES! TOYOTA WON'T OFFER ANY HELP WHATSOEVER! I HAVE FOUND AN EMOTIONAL STATE BEYOND RAGE. *TR
