    The likely reason is that the service tech thought that that he wanted the grab handle more than you did. He thought you'd never even miss it.

    It could be a loaner piece that I'd send back, or I could send it out to some other poor schmuck to be used again...

    If the dealership would have pulled a swap on me like that I'd have been really tempted to file a police report for theft. But I'm petty azfuq against dealerships for the way they've tried to screw me over in the past.

    Caught a dealership "changing my oil" without changing the filter. Same dealer argued with me for 3 days about a bad battery in my brand new 2013 tacoma that I bought from them 2 months prior. And a whole list of issues with them when trying to get warranty work done. I've always won, but it takes effort. So if I can make their lives miserable, I'm make the same effort to do so.

    That’s a plausible reason but I still think that trying to replace the grab handle was more work than Toyota would cover.

    Got my money back! Only took a few months. Anybody know where I can get the pillar handle bolt covers? Maybe 3D printed?

    Yes

    Heard that man. I've had some battles won and others lost with dealers in the past.

    So with this place, they were out of loaner cars. I was sent to enterprise on their dime and chose a nissan Armada as it was the highest per day rental I saw on the lot. Small victory but w=w.

    Bunch of BS. He spent the first install vid praising the thing and influencing sells while not even going through the install issues that he had. Screw that.




    Sorry, but shitty influencers (all of them??) just piss me off.
