Thumbs down Re: 4Runner Head Gasket Recall??

The headgasket recall that states 8 years or 100,000 is no longer in effect. There was a revision to include numerous Toyota trucks as part of an ongoing headgasket recall. There is documentation from Toyota that states a Revisiona Dec 1997. This has no age or mileage stipulation that I can read. I sent the pages to 2 different dealership that agree with me that My Truck VIn is covered. The problem I am having is Toyota will not pay the bill. I was told to seek a lawyer. I cannot believe the headache this has been. I am treated so poorly and am looked at like I am totally out of line. This is the bottom line. The Service rep read the page stipulating since OCT 96. He stated Wow .. and then looked at VIN number s followed by Vin ranges and then told me NO my VIN was not there. Funny how 2 other dealerships and service people found my VIN in range of numbers under recalled Trucks. Toyota refuses to back me based upon Headgasket repair 5/96 ( no tags on hinge)business closed now. I am waiting for Supervisor from customer relations to call me tommarrow. I feel like David against Goliath. Let me know how you have fared and the outcome ! Thanx Cathie ccrep@juno.com
