Good luck to anyone hoping to get rid of the noise. I guess that Toyota gets to do whatever they want now that Scion is gone
It has nothing to do with Scion being gone since it was always a Toyota warranty anyway. As I have said 1,000 times a TSB is not a recall or even a notice of defect. It is simply a document that tells the techs how to fix a known issue. It is totally up to the dealer if they will actually do the work. They are not required to do it in any way. It is a sure sign of a shady dealer when they won't fix a known issue though. Not sure why they wouldn't since it is money in their pocket not out of it.
