Consumer Description

FOR ABOUT 3-4 YEARS OFF AND ON IT HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO OPEN THE HATCH BACK DOOR. OVER TIME THIS PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE. AT THIS POINT EVEN MY HUSBAND IS HAVING TROUBLE OPENING THE DOOR. NON OF THE OTHER DOORS IS HAVING A PROBLEM. THE RUBBER COVER ON THE HATCH OPENING SWITCH ABOVE THE LICENSE PLATE IS DETERIORATING AND CAUSING THE PROBLEM. APPARENTLY WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING TROUBLE WITH THIS. WE WILL HAVE TO TAKE THIS IN TO HAVE IT FIXED. MY HUSBAND JUST CALLED OUR LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WOULD BE $110 TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. WHAT GIVES?
