Thanks, nippon. What does AN stand for?
 
A report I found from late February says that the the NHTSA was investigating the Vibe, Matrix and Corolla for complaints about the vehicles' power windows. The author later said that all complaints involved vehicles roduced at NUMMI in California.
 
So either Matrixes also were made in California unbeknownst to me (I thought the NUMMI plant produced only the Vibe and the version exported to Japan known as the Voltz), or NHTSA discovered that the same faulty bolts were also at other manufacturing plants such as in Ontario.
 
Or is there something faulty about my logic here? Anyway, if we don't get a recall notice on the '03 by the end of April (the time-frame stated in the reports I have heard), I'm going to call my service deprtment and ask them to check the VIN number against their recall info.

AN is Automotive News, and it may be that Toyota is recalling the Matrix just to be on the safe side? I dunno. Certainly Corollas are built at NUMMI, so that part of the recall makes sense. And of course, most of the 500K+ Toyotas recalled were Corollas, not Matrixes.

Did anyone get a valet key with their electronic keys by scarro1

Did anyone get a valet key with their electronic keys? Purchased a base 1.8 liter with power package option. Car came with two electronic keys. Initially the dealer stated two electronic keys, and a valet key to protect the glovebox contents. However, there is no lock on the glove box and delivery package had no valet key. Dealer stated would make a valet key.
 
Just curious as I don't won't to wonder if there is a valet key floating around the dealership that can unlock and start my car

No I didn't get a valet key, just the two electronic keys with the button for the remote starter I bought. I have the base model as well.

Hmm. 2003 promotional materials talked about a locking glovebox. But no one in this forum had a lock. Interesting that the same issue exists 5 years later.

Specs for rear wiper blade replacement by lil_bru65

I want to replace the rear wiper blade on my 2006 Matrix, but can't find out what size to use. Neither Toyota's parts website nor the couple of auto parts stores I checked even mentioned the rear wiper in their cross-reference guides. They only list the 21" driver-side wiper and the 18" passenger-side one.
 
Does anyone know if a replacement blade is available for the rear wiper? Where can I get one? (Hopefully not through my Toyota dealer's parts dept; I need my arms & legs for work. 8D )
