I have dealt with the dealer and Toyota corporate. They both advised me the District Toyota Parts and Service manager made the final denial to deny it and both refused to give me his contact info. I tracked him down and left him a message.
I do have a copy of the freeze frame, it was pulled when a code for a misfire popped up. The problem with that, is the freeze frame data has evidence that it was not pulled at the time of failure. The ambient temp reading is different from what it was the day of failure. Also the coolant/oil temps were also different than what it wouldve been as when the freeze frame was pulled coolant/oil was around 120 degrees, when i had been driving for 45 minutes when this failure occurred so everything would be over 200+. Also i had been driving that morning for a while, but the freeze frame data for that rev was 66 seconds after start up of the vehicle. So Toyota cannot prove that the freeze fram they are using to deny my claim occurred when the failure occurred but i have plenty of evidence to prove it wasnt from the same time and cannot be used. Also the fact that 7300 rpms is under the factory set rev limiter is one of my points as well.
