| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2006 toyota camry le. the problem with my vehicle occurs on mornings when the temperature falls just below 50 degrees f. when the needs arises to use the horn the sound it makes is as if the horn is sticking and can not sound t6he proper tone and volume of the horn. once the horn is used and this occurs the horn works properly until the next morning the temperature falls below 50 degrees f. i have recorded this occurrence on a voice recorder but the dealer does not want to accept it as proof. no repair work has been accomplished as the dealer states they must replicate the issue before they will fix the problem. the service manager stated to me that it is tootsie policy that if warranty work is performed and the part is deemed not defective by toyota, the dealership must accept responsibility for the cost of the repair and parts. this is a safety issue as the horn is not functioning at proper db levels that it was manufactured for. this could lead to a serious accident if the horn decides not to function properly when needed in an emergency situation. *nm |
