Anyone with/had headunit issues.

LOL @ magnuson moss

People toss around the magnuson moss act like a warm blanket but few are willing to invest the time and energy ( and sometimes money ) involved in seeing an Express Warranty Breach all the way.

 

That... and offer to purchase the head unit that worked... bounce the ball back to em....

 

Headunit price was approx 1600$ the remote start the dealer installed, and the led lights i installed, but no splicing into a factory harness or anything (by me). My teleconference is end of next week with toyota rep and arbitrator. I will follow up then. I was just hopeing to get some numbers on issues with radio so i can say its not just me.

 

I would advise NOT to use arbitration as it is done using the NCDS. Ask for another arbitrator ( American Arbitration Association ) AAA. They are a truely neutral party and not paid by Toyota. It's your right.
Also you can't go into arbitration with just claims, speculation and arguements. Get ahold of a lawyer and see what they say. Bet they are in agreement. People talk about going to arbitration frequently but rarely gauge the actual repercussions as it's a FINAL judgement. You probably still can go to court but a ruling against you in arbitration does not look good to a judge.

Do your research and see how many people win a NCDS arbitration case....

Or don't take my advice but be sure to post the outcome!

 

Just a little info on the Magnusun act deal:

"Although car enthusiasts commonly believe that any modifications will void a warranty, the truth is a little less straightforward. In fact, a modification won't void a warranty unless an automaker or a dealer can prove that an aftermarket part caused the need for repairs."

I would think trying to prove a good customer caused the problem that the dealer was able to remedy with a new part from another truck, would be more expensive than an actual new heard unit...

 

I am familiar with magnusson moss, as im in canada there are some slightly different rules and paths i must take. As we also do not have lemon laws which as a consumer sucks.
