    I'm on the list! Just called the dealer, they are just finding out.

    I ran out and checked myself, seepage is showing between the bolts @
    4 & 5 o'clock. Very minimal, doesn't even look fresh. They said they
    will check it, if they think it's worse than what I'm seeing you must leave
    the truck with them until parts arrive.

    Green circled area is all I'm seeing...

    None as of yet
    It may not be showing up yet because the recall isn't official yet. The email states their intent to file with the NTSB. Going to be a little bit of time before they system is going.

    Fuck man I can't tell you how many threads I've looked at, even recently, where smitty hasn't even posted and people are shit talking him behind his back. IMHO, TW needs to deal with them. Those guys must get paid to suck Toyota Exec cock. After some of the shit I read last week I decided to start calling the perps out on their bullshit. Hence my actions earlier in this thread.

    haha, that'd be nice.

    I'd settle for a solid fix I don't have to worry about.

    Ya I don't know him or even anything about him but I can read & comprehend (and not just TW). But I recognized him as a guy trying to help others and that he'd been handed a POS for his ~$40k.

    As a consumer the LAST thing I'm interested in reading are dumb asses defending something fucked up when I'm about to spend my $$ on it.

    An intern can't get the repair parts to all the dealerships in a week. If you haven't noticed leaking yet, you can probably hold off til notification unless you absolutely can't wait.
