NHTSA Complaint #11316902 — 2014 TOYOTA FJ CRUISER

I BOUGHT MY 2014 FJ CRUISER BRAND NEW WITH 5 MILES ON IT. 6 MONTHS INTO OWNING IT THE DRIVER DOOR LOCKS STOPPED WORKING. THE DEALER REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. ABOUT A YEAR LATER THE PASSENGER LOCKS STOPPED WORKING AND THEY REPLACED THOSE UNDER WARRANTY. ABOUT 1-1/2 YEARS LATER THE DRIVER LOCK (THAT WAS ALREADY REPLACED) STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. I HAD 34,000 MILES ON IT AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT'S NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I TOLD THEM THAT THE LOCK THEY REPLACED WENT OUT BUT THE DEALER SAID THE REPLACEMENT WARRANTY IS ONLY GOOD FOR 1 YEAR AFTER THE REPAIR! SHORTLY AFTER THE PASSENGER LOCK WENT OUT AGAIN AS WELL. AND NOW THE BACK DOOR WONT EVEN UNLOCK WITH THE KEY FOB OR EVEN MANUALLY WITH THE KEY. THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS ON THE CARS ARE TERRIBLE! I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THEY WERE HAVING A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THE TOYOTA LOCKS AND FOR ME TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR A RECALL! IT'S BEEN 3 YEARS NOW THAT I'VE BEEN WITHOUT LOCKS AND NO RECALL! DEALER QUOTED ME $900 TO FIX ONE DOOR! $360 FOR THE PART AND THE REST LABOR. RIDICULOUS ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THESE PARTS IN THE PAST UNDER WARRANTY!! WHAT GOOD IS IT TO PAY FOR THE SAME PART THEY ALREADY 'REPLACED' JUST FOR THEM TO GO OUT SO SOON!!!
