    Toyota has a customer service phone number and website you can contact to voice a complaint. I did this regarding a Camry engine belt tensioner that broke while the dealer was replacing the fan belt. The dealer told me, sorry, you gotta' pay for a new tensioner. I called Toyota to complain that it was the dealer's fault, not mine. Toyota agreed and reimbursed me for the cost of the new tensioner. This intermediate shaft issue may be a case where it'd be a good idea to contact Toyota.

    I had the same thing happen with a new Camry. I drove a lot at the time and had put 95K on the car in about 2 years. I forget now what the issue was, but something failed/broke that cost me $1200 to repair. And it also had a squeak near the back window since new that they could never fix. So after the $1200 repair on a 2-year old car, I traded for... a Chrysler. I drove that Chrysler for 175K and never had any issues whatsoever. I traded it for another Chrysler and had no issues for 150K miles. I only left Chrysler (for Honda) because they stopped making a model that suited my needs.

    When radial tires first came out they were excellent, in the 70's, 80's and 90's we never needed snows, and I live in snow country. After using bias ply snow tires for years these new radials were amazing. In my opinion the advent of stiff, wide, low profile tires has made the newer all season tires useless in snow and ice. Just my opinion based on lots of driving experience.

      Put sandbangs in the rear seats and the trunk (I put 2 - 70 lb sandbags behind the front seats, and 2 more in the trunk over the rear axle. Doesn't seem to impact fuel economy that much (lost maybe 2mpg). I found this to be as effective in most cases as having winter tires (and I don't have to pay for an extra set of tires). I like in the mid-west by the way so we get plenty of snow and ice. The only ONE place I sometimes have issues is when ice builds up at the end of my driveway but I don't think snow tires would help that anyway. Plus I'm still running the OEM tires on mine (although they will be replaced with better ones this coming December).

The real slap in the face is that if this was an 018 model it would have an extended warranty. But not me. I contacted toyota canada and they were very sympathetic but of little help. Toyota told me to get it fixed at the stealership, same price about $1000 can, (and that is before our 100% sales tax) in order to continue the ticket. So hopefully you can help me as well. Fingers crossed. Stealership also said they also have this problem from time to time with the tacomas. Anyway there goes our much needed vacation trip this march break. Thanks for this video at least now I don't feel so alone. PEI, canada

    TLDR: If you drive a car a lot, you can blow past the warranty mileage limit before reaching the warranty calendar limit. If you do that, the dealer / maker may not replace affected parts under the warranty.

If you needed extra care for your vehicle, you have to pay for it. Nothing is free in this world that’s just like my sonata it’s three years old and I have 87000 miles on it. My factory warranty is up. I have a limited powertrain warranty that only covers motor and transmission. Everything else I have to pay for out of my pocket my Toyota Camry I just bought has no warranty at all. I get a 90 day warranty from the dealership that is about it, like I said if he needed extra warranty for the job that he does should’ve bought extra warranty

My Highlander has been as reliable as a hammer and has just over 380,000 miles on it. I bought it in 2007 with 11,000 miles on it. She vibrates like a Maytag compared to the hybrid but that's it. Love Toyotas build quality and am staying with the brand for now.

    Thank you Scotty. Buying steel wheels from junk yards to mount snow tires is an excellent idea. Been doing this for forty years. Every time the wheels are delivered the manufactures papers are still attached. The yard buys the wheels directly from the factory, when the manufacturer overproduces and sells them in lots. Brand new wheels for junk yard price.

    2018 Honda HRV - Continuously variable transmission dead at less than 89,000. Honda paid 75%. Folks, if you have a CVT and the belt breaks, you replace the ENTIRE transmission. You should keep at least $5,000 set aside just in case your manufacturer won't pay anything. Honda paid because someone at the dealership worked hard for us. Do you think your dealership cares that much for you? Old fashioned transmissions are the way to go. Mazda - old fashioned transmissions. Subaru - all CVT. Toyota RAV 4 - some CVT. Honda - HRV, CRV and Civic all CVT. Ask very specific questions.

I thought that this is very doable and easy, and a quick indication for hidden water damage.
