problem #4

Mar 192008

Camry 2.4L L4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 91,500 miles

My a/c started flashing and the cool air flow stopped. This continued all day, so I checked my freon level, it was full while the compressor was not "kicking" in. I checked my fuses and everything seemed fine. I took it to a mechanic shop and they checked the a/c system. Turns out that the a/c magnetic relay switch was the part not working. The mechanic checked for recalls and it turns out 2001-2004 Toyota Echos, Camry's and one other car had bulletins posted about the recalls. I finally get the part put in and decided since the part was a recall, my dealership should reimburse me for it. I go to Lynch/Scion/Toyota dealership and they tell me they can't help because they never received the bulletin. I have never been so ticked with these macho know-it-alls in my life. I know that companies need to profit but my gosh whatever happened to chivalry. I'm having the mechanic shop I went to first print out the recall charge and maybe bring a male friend with me to get my reimbursement. I am so sick of dealerships taking advantage of sweet young female that try to take care of their cars.

the a/c just stopped working; the light on the dash just started blinking; so on the first hot day of the year in Chicago, I had no "air." Bummer!

Now the A/C has gone out. Don't see any recalls yet for this problem. Live in houston and will melt w/o A/C.
