Re: How to initialize power rear door
It's not the power button. Even the techs verified the weirdness - door will work - then stop working... The last time it worked (for me), I was at the airport and the door opened halfway, stalled, then opened completely. Did not close with power. Same way with the rear window. Last time I used it - it refused to close. I had to drive with it down (opened all other windows to keep fumes out)... then, after 20 minutes, it closed up. I don't dare to open it again.
As for what they are doing in terms of payments - nothing. I decided to keep it in the shop for the first repair attempt (it's car #3 in a 2 driver household and we also have an Mercedes ML for SUV duty). The vehicle is drivable - just not fully functional in terms of the power door. I can at least unlock and manually open the door - so it is usable. The wiring harness is in - just have to schedule an appt. I am basically a very patient guy when it comes to repair times - this Sequoia replaced a 1995 Range Rover Classic...you want to talk about extensive (month at a time) shop stays... My patience does have its limits... as I bought the Sequoia counting on a few years without any shop/repair visits.
If for some reason it continues to fail (after many attempts by Toyota)... what recourse do I have - Lemon Law?
