    Class action lawsuit?

    Hopefully replacement housings aren’t on backorder anymore. I know there was a long wait for new ones.

    Dealer and Toyota USA refusing to fix mine. I have mold/watermarks in entire backseat, rusty latches on the seat backs, mold in headliner, and carpets. Dealer and Toyota told me to run it through my insurance because "something fell on this lense". You all would be pissed to if this was your truck. I want it fixed I don't want money I want them to fix thier freaking mistake. I can't even sell this POS the way it is.

    And I haven't hit it with anything. I've never carried anything close to it. I have a utility trailer I put shit in. I will bet his was leaking just like mine and froze on the winter and he took the blame. Thanks for the help guys. Just like Toyota, bury your heads in the sand. You can't tell me that the rest in my freaking seats happened it a couple of days...or a month it's been leaking since day one.

    I appreciate the helpfulness of the group...

    And btw if you read gray truck owners statement completely he took blame but wasn't sure if he did it or not those crack look so similar. When Toyota issues a TSB you all will eat your words!
