QUOTE(jys @ Aug 21 2008, 02:51 PM) wow, sorry about your case. I've always heard good stuff about toyota, Car reliability is better but, car quality is ok only, and car service is so-so. The only thing that made us going back Toyota SC is about the car's warranty period. hmm, now really have to think twice if wanna get a toyota.. |

just saw this topic..... my summary
TS duno how to drive car, how can your car always go off alignment and wheel balancing within few days? I used to drive a satria (accident b4) the front camber smashed and out of alignment, I redo the camber and everything back to normal, if your new car accident b4 most to most you get out of alignment problem only n wont get wheel balancing problem and rattling sound everywhere. answer is you drive very rough, smashing thru potholes speedbreaker dogs and cats thats why alignment, balancing and all kinda rattling sound coming from everywhere within few days This post has been edited by moorish: Sep 4 2008, 05:18 PM |

i still remember my dad collegue going to collect his latest camry, silver color. end up with he has no time to collect, so my dad was helping him to collect. when collect. the camry was not in good condition, the body was covered with dirt and unpolished, the footstep can see a few footprint for both driver and passenger seat. totally like new car used for 2 weeks. no doubt that day was in raining, with some slippery road. but cant UMW toyota take some inisiatif to please their customer?
so can u imagine, buying a luxury car cost 150k, UMW giving this type of new car to his customer. how if juz buy avanza? |

should sell this car since got this problem. Then problem solved.
Added on September 14, 2008, 5:51 pmSame as the TS, i also experienced same problem once with VIOS. When i'm driving quite fast on the North South highway after Slim River, the car immediately go LEFT although i'm holding the sterling straight. Luckily 3 lanes, no car on my left. hehe... Suspect with the wind flow~ This post has been edited by tiger_htl: Sep 14 2008, 06:03 PM |

wow nightmare indeed. respect TS for his courage and patience to fight for his rights. i dun think is TS problem, if its really road conditions, alignment or other external factors, shouldnt it be shaking instead of pulling to the left all the time?
it must be the car itself, and from his statements, its obvious and noticeable, else he wouldnt want to go thru all these troubles. i wouldnt feel satisfied and safe too if i found out my car has obvious defects and will feel like being cheated. besides, its ntg u can jus buy and throw away. |

Better sell u car fast. If i 'kena' this for 3 month, sure i will sell my car oledi. Da*n, TS why so patience to fight with big guy? Be real la n find anothr better solutions. Stop sending letter there n there. Stop going service centre if same prob still occur.
p/s: i never buy new car. and will never for my entire life. no syiok. kaki mod here! hehe.. |
