I was notified in 2013 of three (3) recalls nothng has been done to address the issues. I contacted my local dealer and the service manager said "there is not safety problem and I have looked at the vehicle and northing is wrong' I forced the issue and they did an "interim" fix. Is not three years a long time for them to be getting the parts as that is the excuse I was given by the service manager.

I received a safety recall notice (interim notice) from Toyota on 4/20/2016 regarding wiper motor link corrosion on my 2011 Toyota Rav4, NHTSA recall 15V-577.in the interim notice it states that an interim repair will be performed at no charge. I called two (2) Toyota dealers and both said I have to wait for the final repair notice. Yet in the Toyota letter to their dealers dated 2/25/2016 it clearly states that interim repairs will be made to vehicles listed in phase 2 (F2S), cold weather climate states. It also states that in the notice that I received. There appears to be some confusion between Toyota and their dealerships regarding interim repairs because what the dealers are saying is not what is written in the letter that I received.

I was notified of a safety recall that began on September 11, 2015. In November I called the local Toyota dealer and they said they should have the part soon and I needed to wait for the second letter. 7 months later the upgraded windshield wiper system is still unavailable. It is unacceptable that when someone's life may be on the line they appear to be unwilling to try to fix a potentially life threatening manufacturer defect. I have driven in a couple rainstorms since and there was one incident late last year where my windshield was completely covered by water and I could not see through for a second. Thankfully there was next to no traffic on the road and I had no vehicles in my immediate vicinity. I was going into a turn on the freeway with several lanes around me.
