Consumer Description

AFTER WAITING FOR YEARS TO BE CALLED TO GET THE TOYOTA LEAF SPRINGS CHANGED AFTER MANUFACTURER RECALL, THE DEALER REFUSED TO EXCHANGE THEM. I ADDED AN EXTRA LEAF UNDER THE SUBSTANDARD ONES TO MITIGATE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE WHILE TOWING, AND WAS TOLD I HAD "MODIFIED THE ORIGINAL SPRINGS". THE DEALER WAS RED MC COMBS TOYOTA; 13526 INTERSTATE 10 FRONTAGE RD, SAN ANTONIO, US (210) 530-3000
