A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
In 2007 a new Avalon was purchased as a new car demonstrator which had approximately 10,000 miles put on it by the dealer prior to purchase. At the time of the purchase, it was titled to the name of my spouse, Maebeth Young (deceased 09/08/2022). Now, in 2023, according to David Wood's report, I learn there was a recall for dash damage on at least 12 Toyota-models build between 2003-2011, including the 2007 Avalon.
The car was retitled in my name a few weeks prior to the death of my wife in September, 2022. On April 24, 2023, the car has approximately29,000 miles. This means that the car has been driven approximately 19,000 miles since the new car purchase and it has been well cared for. There is always a garage available in which to park the car when not in use. Sometime prior to 2011-2013, the car dashboard became sticky and shiny and had cracks in the plastic dashboard and in the area around the glove box. As of April of 2023 the cracks are much worse. Sometime between the years 2011-2015, the Dealership told me twice that there was not a recall from the manufacturer for the problem.
Neither my wife or I have ever received a notice of recall for the problem from the dealership or the Toyota Manufacturer. I have contacted the dealership and the manufacturer several times since my wife deceased in September of 2022, and asked that the dashboard be repaired at manufacturer's cost. The Toyota Manufacturer has refused to repair the car because they say it is out of warranty. I feel that, especially because neither me nor my wife have ever received a notice of a recall for this problem, The Toyota Manufacturer is liable for the repair.
