Description of the problem | I went to a local dealer to get the wheel alignment of my car done. They said i had leaking struts and showed me. I had purchased toyota extended platinum warranty. I called the toyota dealer and they said struts are considered wear and tear and are not covered. There are hundreds of posts that state that camry 2009 has a very common leaking struts problem. Toyota is choosing to ignore it as it costs money to replace them. There is no recall on it when there should be one as the problem is so common and is security risk. Can someone throw any ideas? I am going to stop buying toyota products and go to honda. Their quality has clearly gone down. |
