I've had a raft of issues with my car and I must admit that I'm slowly losing confidence with it. I really lost patience when i found a hose dangling from the transfer case yesterday.
Issues I've had to date are as follows:
* a screw or something moving around in the dash area (was reported since 30,000)
* steering rack,
* clutch kit due to faulty release bearing,
* water filling in the rear door,
* another clutch kit due to faulty release bearing,
* synchro ring, dogs, synchro clips replaced (due to misaligned selectors when the last clutch kit was replaced)
* hose dangling off the transfer case
* and list of other QA related issues I had to point out to the service manager on numerous occasions
Spoke to Toyota Customer Experience and mentioned that considering the circumstances I would like to have an extended warranty. After 10+ phone calls chasing up where this is at they denied the warranty extension and offered a $300 voucher. I mentioned that I wasn't happy with the response and requested that the regional service manager contact me.
In all seriousness I am hesitant to take the car off-road any more - I was considering keeping the car for the long run but am looking at getting rid of it! I haven't spared a cent on the rig and it has a perfect service record!
