Consumer Description

I FORGOT TO MENTION IN COMPLAINT 11282925 THAT SOME OF THE DOZEN PARTS NEEDED TO FIX THE VSC PROBLEM HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED BY TOYOTA. SO I COULD PAY THE DEALERSHIP THOUSANDS TO REPLACE SOME OF THE POSSIBLE CULPRITS BUT THE REAL PROBLEM COULD BE THE ITEMS THAT TOYOTA DISCONTINUED. TOYOTA CANNOT ISOLATE WHAT THE EXACT PROBLEM IS AND HAS TO REPLACE POSSIBLE CULPRITS TO SEE IT IT FIXES THE PROBLEM. AFTER ALL OF THIS AND A HUGE REPAIR BILL COULD STILL HAVE THE HIGHWAY SAFETY PROBLEM IF THE FAULTY PART(S) ARE THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED. REPLACING ITEMS ONE AT A TIME AND THEN DRIVING IT ON THE HIGHWAY TO SEE IF IT'S SAFE IS NOT A GOOD STRATEGY. TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL AND FIX ALL ITEMS AT THE SAME TIME AND ALSO PRODUCE THE PARTS THEY HAVE DISCONTINUED AS A WAY TO POSSIBLY TRY TO COVER UP THEIR NEGLIGENCE.
