Thank you;
I’m just trying to figure out is this from brake light or the window repair they have done

Mind you this is series of events.
1. Original issue was a dent repair in September 2024 on the pillar frame above my driver door. They had to take off the bed and the entire window assemble allegedly for paint access.

2. When I picked it up 2 weeks later paint overspray and scratches on my truck. Also my reverse light on bottom left and 3rd brake light reverse light wasn’t working.

4. Pick it up again, when I get home I find a bunch of screws in my cup holder and the storage behind my backseat is not put back correctly. Also, trim piece by the windows on the corners is popping out not put back correctly.

5. Pick it up again and this time a week later this issue happened; but back in November. Water on headliner and around top of window.

6. Now I’m here in February 2025 with more water leaking from same areas.

would you take it back again to same place?

Was insurance involved? If so, and you can't get the shop to fix it right, there is a very good chance they will help you.
Furthermore, IF it was paid for and suggested as one of their preferred shops, the insurance company has LOTS of leverage.

Thank you, thankfully all those things are in my favor: it is through my full coverage insurance and it is also their preferred shop.

Today my caliber advisor tried to say they didn’t touch the light (which they did and I was arguing that) because he said well if it’s the glass they will fix it again. If it’s the light then they didn’t touch it. And I said well this didn’t leak ever since I got the truck brand new in 2021 and I know the recall was on 16-19 tacos.

Worst case if they wanna play games I will take it to Toyota and once they tell me it was tampered with; then the arrows point toward caliber and they will need to do it. Which at that point I would hope my insurance would fix it.
