TOYOTA YARIS, 2009, SEDAN, 4DR, 7 MONTHS OF USE, STRONG BAD ODOR PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER UNIT, TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY PERFORMED A REPLACEMENT OF THE AIR FILTERS, THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS FIXED BUT BEFORE I REACHED MY HOUSE THE PROBLEM WAS THERE AGAIN. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AGAIN AND THIS TIME THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT ALL THE TOYOTA YARIS 2009 HAVE THE SAME BAD ODOR PROBLEM IN THE AIR CONDITIONER UNIT, AND THAT IT WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I ASKED FOR A FIX TO THIS PROBLEM BUT THE ANSWER I RECEIVED FROM THE DEALER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WAS THAT THEY ARE STILL COLLECTING COMPLAINTS AND INFORMATION TO REQUEST A RECALL OR FIX FROM THE TOYOTA COMPANY, WHICH CAN TAKE AN INDEFINITE AMOUNT OF TIME. MEANWHILE I AM STOCK WITH THE PROBLEM AND NO OTHER OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO FIX IT. *TR
I HAVE OWNED MY CAR FOR TWO YEARS NOW, AND HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRCONDITIONER LEAKING INSIDE MY CAR, SINCE I GOT IT. IT MAKES A HORRIBLE NOISE WITH ANY LEFT HAND TURN, MY CARPET IS RUINED, MOLDY AND IM CONFIDENT IM BREATHING IN MOLD SPORES AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY KEPT IT FOR THREE WEEKS, REFUSED TO REPLACE MY CARPET. THEY DID MAKE IT STOP LEAKING, MOST LIKELY BY CLEARING THE DRAIN LINE OUT, THAT LASTED FOR A FEW WEEKS. THEN THE PROBLEM RETURNED. *TR
