Re: Engine Bay Body Rips

"their initial position is that it is likely caused by aftermarket equipment"

Then how can they explain the problem occurring on stock vehicles? I think they will have a hard time using that as an excuse to deny taking care of this problem.


My FJ is a 06/06 build that is stock(except for stock size BFG's) and I have not noticed any bulges or tears yet. Just mild off-roading and a few trails at the Summit.

I'm not going to get too upset about this issue just yet. With some of the forum members having their vehicles inspected and in one case repaired by Toyota, I'm going to wait it out and see how Toyota decides to handle this issue with the rest of us before I panic.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a recall instead of a TSB. They supposedly have just been made aware of the problem and they won't make a decision overnight on something like this.

Normally if this issue came up with any other vehicle I have owned, it would have gone straight to the Pre-Owned lot. But since I enjoy the FJ so much I'm willing to wait a little longer before I jump ship.
