How you take to the dealer then.
Tow it if you are paranoid.
If I owned a Toyota, I would still drive.
Leave your hand on the stick and be
be ready to drop it in neutral.
Here's the thing -- I called the dealer and they said "no fears" and my mechanic said they STILL have no idea how to fix the problem!!!
I'm on the recall-fix list. At least I think I'm on the list. My dealer left a message on my machine to "call her back", which I've been trying to do off-and-on for two days. No luck so far. :(
And I own a Pontiac Vibe! Those dealers only have to deal with one recalled model. I can't imagine how swamped Toyota dealerships are.
Toyota does have a solution to the problem. I think they announced the solution on Feb 1, although I'm not 100% sure on the timing.
PS - I'm the same anon as in the other Toyota recall thread. Longtime lurker, etc., etc.
