problem #1

Jul 102017

Tacoma SR5 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 13,000 miles

Blower motor failed. Dealer said there was a backlog of over 350 blower motor units nationwide. Wait to replace 1-2 weeks. Temperatures in this area are in the mid to upper 90's.

A backlog of this significance would seem, to indicate a high failure rate and an inadequate inventory by the manufacturer. Why buy Toyota if they can't honor their warranty promptly?

If I replace the blower motor from a third party (which I can get next day, the dealer said it would void my warranty.

Sent an e-mail to Toyota. Of course, no response.
