Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Whenever weather becomes too cold and wet, driver's side door will not stay shut because of a pin inside the door. i was told by toyota customer service representative (john ledford) who says that he contacted regional service manager (chris tenebhn) and that they told him it is being caused from moisture getting inside the door and that all they offer is to lubricate it more (which they have already done) to try and keep it from freezing again. i have had to drive in bad weather on i-70 to get to work while holding the door shut 4 times this winter alone. i have left messages for the service manager (dennis young) at the lee's summit missouri toyota where i take my car in for service but have not heard back from him.*ak
