Stan, Are you aware of any dealers performing this TSB as a preventive action? The TSB states at the bottom of page 1: Warranty application is limited to correction of a problem based upon a customer's specific complaint

I'm unclear if that means the problem must exist prior to the TSB being performed, or if a customer can request the TSB?

My car is yelling at me that Maint Reqd (I'm hitting the 10k mark) so I'll try to get them to do the TSB and report back.

nash — I think that disclaimer is to indicate that Toyota assumes no legal responsibility to notify all owners of this TSB's existence. However, my understanding is that they will apply the TSB to any vehicle whose owner requests that this be done. So, it's not a recall — the obligation is on us to request it. I shall be doing so, but haven't yet made any enquiries locally. After requesting the TSB service, you'll probably have to allow time for the dealer to order and receive the necessary parts kits. I'm glad to know about this TSB! Thanks schmidtj!
