No water leaks here. I have heard of Tacomas having this problem.

That's a bit extreme don't ya think. Mine doesn't leak, and even if it did it's a easy fix. I guess you'll be on horse back because there is no perfect vehicle.

I think $33,000 is a bit extreme for an inferior vehicle.

No kidding !!! I agree. This is a simple fix. I'm not even sure why this thread is allowed to continue. It should be a READ ONLY.

My New Ridgeline was in the shop for 7 days. It required the removal of the entire interior down to the metal. Also required the removal of the of the left front and right front quarter panels so the front pillars could be exposed to make the fix. Simple ! I don't think so. What do you call major? Maybe it would have been simple at the factory but when you own the Truck the Dealer is the one that has to fix it. You should know what caused the leaks in the first place and how it needs to be repaired before you call it SIMPLE.!
Oh, by the way what about the damage to the interior, what about the gallons of water that accumulated on the inside of your new truck from the day it was built and shipped to you?

Were they able to reassemble all of those interiors pieces without realizing any squeaks, rattles or buzzes?
