    I've seen brand new Toyotas leak from evaporators. From yaris to Tundra, to sienna. The give-away is the drain hose leaking dye. They can all leak.

    Dealer said refrigerant was gone said I would need a new evaporator. Only have 51,000 miles on it. Was wondering if this is a common thing for the 3rd gens?
