I only live 60 miles from Buffalo, NY and can say that the weather is just as bad or worse there. I think Toyota needs to address this issue as 4-5 year old Yari' will be needing this service if you live near the ocean or the rust belt. Toyota Canada told me the whole don't believe everything you read either. I rebutted with what about the TSB or the Technician that told me about it...they returned with well, you are out of warranty.

Anyways here is the TSB3271...half of it is "en francais"

We're from the northeast not Florida. They use road salt almost everyday here during the winter so we're concerned as well.
