Consumer Description

I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL DIFFERENT RECALL NOTICES FROM TOYOTA REGARDING THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE ALSO HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE SINCE PURCHASING IT. IT IS CURRENTLY NOT RUNNING AT ALL AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER I PAID THE VEHICLE OFF, THINGS LIKE DOOR HANDLES AND INTERIOR FIXTURES BEGAN BREAKING OFF. I WORK FULL TIME AND HAVE A VERY STRICT BUDGET WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO TAKE TIME OFF OF WORK TO HAVE TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH EVERY RECALL NOTICE I HAVE RECEIVED. I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK. I PAID MORE THAN THREE TIMES THE VEHICLE BLUE BOOK VALUE BUT I BELIEVE IT IS STILL POSSIBLY WORTH $3500.00. YOUR HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED IN TRYING TO FACILITATE A DEAL WITH TOYOTA WHEREIN THEY PAY ME THE $3500 AND TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK. I WOULD BE SATISFIED WITH THAT AND WILL NOT CONTACT AN ATTORNEY UNTIL I GET A RESPONSE REGARDING THIS REQUEST. THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND GOD BLESS. *TR
