Either that or they would be happy to charge me for what would most likely be an equally inept repair.

I have never experienced a drama free dealership interaction. Whether it's the purchase transaction with it's what's the real price game, or "free" oil changes where they use the wrong oil, or warranty repairs. There is always some sort of problem. BTW I'm not just ragging on Toyota, I'm talking about all of them. My all time worst was a VW dealer.

Yeah, auto dealerships and the big business mindset in general just sucks. It's getting harder and harder to find any affirmative value for money spent any more.

Was your 2014 Yaris built in Japan or France?
