I don't know if this applies to your situation, but worth a phone call/dealer visit.

thanks for your reply my dad pulled the truck out a used car dealership and they are badly melted, you think toyota dealer ship will replace them even if he didnt buy from them directly, thanks for your help

 

Yes they should.

 

thanks for the info,
is there a date limit? i read on a previous thread it had to be before november 30 2015, thanks in advance

 

Not sure, but I would put it forward that it is a known issue and should be covered. And ask about a goodwill replacement.

At worst they could refuse.

Here is a copy of the actual Warranty Enhancement Document:

Print it and take it with you to the dealer.

 

thank you i will go and make an effort. thanks for your reply

 

I wish you the best! It doesn't hurt to try.
