Consumer Description

THE RUBBER PORTION OF THE OIL SUPPLY HOSE FOR THE WT-1 ACTUATOR FAILED RESULTING IN A SUDDEN LOSS OF SEVERAL QUARTS OF OIL. THIS OIL WAS CARRIED ALONG THE UNDERCARRIAGE AND SPRAYED A FINE MIST OF OIL ON THE WINDSHIELDS OF THE CARS BEHIND THE VAN. LUCKILY THIS OCCURRED CLOSE TO HOME AT A LOW SPEED. IF THIS WAS ON THE HIGHWAY IT COULD HAVE CAUSED SUDDEN REDUCED VISIBILITY FOR THE DRIVERS BEHIND THE VEHICLE AND COULD HAVE LED TO AN ACCIDENT. I AM SORRY BUT USING A RUBBER HOSE ON AN OIL LINE IS ONE OF THE DUMBEST THINGS I HAVE HEARD OF. FORTUNATELY FOR US, NO ONE WAS HURT AND NO DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE VEHICLE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS HAS NOT TURNED INTO A RECALL. THIS WAS A BIG MISTAKE ON TOYOTA'S PART. *TR
