About damn time.

I got mine covered under warranty luckily, but I'm in a Subaru, and I don't know if they have a TSB for this yet. I'm also in Canada.

But good to know they're finally admitting they have a problem with this.

Toyota released this yesterday. Unfortunately it only covers 3/36. Mine was incredibly bad before I replaced it and the clutch assembly.

Son of a bitch! I just replaced my TOB and clutch last week because Toyota refused to replace it under warranty. I'm past the bumper to bumper though, so I guess it's a moot point. Seems like a faulty design.

Figures they don't release this until I'm over 75k miles. I first brought it to Subaru with under 30k and then again around 35k. Oh well...

Would be very interested to know if Subaru also releases a TSB for this. I'm just over 36k.... although I don't have any problems... yet.

Im in canada, can i print this and bring it over to the dealer? I brought my car in for oil change the weekend, and told them i have this exact problem. They said it's perfectly normal for these vehicles.

This applies to the US market only. I'll check and see if this bulletin applies to international markets.

I'd rather see a "re-call" ...... when needed ......:mad0260:


humfrz

Far past that warranty mileage -_-

Brilliant, Toyota. Only 3 years too late...

Even sadder that they include the 2013 MY on this TSB - I would imagine many of those cars would have been sold in, oh I don't know, 2013...

At least we have some official confirmation that the TOB is the culprit, for whatever that's worth.

Has anyone seen if Subaru released anything yet? I have not been able to find anything.

Hi anyone have a sound example if i got this problem ?
