A/C Broken On My 2010 5 DR HB
After owning my Yaris for 1 month and 5 days - the A/C stopped working just before my 125KM commute home on the freeway. All it was blowing out was hot air - and we've been experiencing 30 degree + celcius weather recently - so it felt like I was in a POW solitary box.
My sales rep thought I may have been running the defrost - which I wasn't. Anyway - I have read every thread here on Yaris World regarding A/C problems - and I do not believe I am at fault. (e.g. I don't leave papers loose in the glove boxes - all my insurance docs / etc are in ziploks - and my car is relatively clean inside and out). I don't think it's my responsibility to take hangers and start unplugging hoses, etc., and I know the differences / advantages / disadvantages of running circulate vs. re-circulate. I have an apt. tomorrow at 9:30AM - Sat, July 10, 10 with the same Toyota dealership where I bought the car from. They are going to provide me with a Toyota Corolla service loaner. I intend to post my experiences here with my broken A/C as a warning and perhaps pre-cautionery measure to potential 2010 Yaris buyers. I commute a total of 250KM - 6 days a week - and I run A/C in all but the coldest of weather conditions. A/C is absolutely VITAL to me. |
