Consumer Description

I HAD PLACED MY TOLL ROADS TRANSPONDER (APPROX. 4"X4"X1/2') ON THE DASH IN FRONT OF THE CLOSED NAVIGATION PANEL. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE, THE NAVIGATION PANEL OPENED AUTOMATICALLY AND THE TRANSPONDER SLID UNDER THE PANEL, PREVENTING THE PANEL FROM OPENING OR CLOSING ALL OF THE WAY. I WAS UNABLE TO REMOVE THE TRANSPONDER SO I TOOK IT TO MY LEXUS DEALER WHO TOLD ME SINCE IT WAS NOT A "WARRANTY ITEM", IT WOULD COST $140/HR TO REPAIR. IT IS A DESIGN DEFECT - ANYTHING SMALL WILL SLIDE UNDER THE NAVIGATION PANEL WHEN IT OPENS AND WILL JAM THE UNIT. *TR
