They have to order parts. Toyota may send a rep out if that doesn't fix it. They say that if it wasn't under warranty they are now up to 2k (just in labor the first 2 days not counting the part or install) that ontop of the fuel pump they replaced twice I am at 5K+/- in repairs. Is this typical? I like the car but not sure that I want to keep it out of warranty if that's typical.
This is the reason there is such thing as warranty..

It seams like whenever people actually have to use their warranty they believe they drive a ticking time bomb
