It took four months to get the dash, but I was glad the Toyota extended to warranty on this. \n\nWhen I took it in, I asked that they only replace the dash, because I had heard from other owners that were unhappy about some of the recall actions that Toyota has done, such as modifying the accelerator pedal and ECU re-flashes. \n\nWhen I picked up my 4Runner, I learned that they did every Toyota recall action, including the infamous gas pedal chop and ECU re-flash. (Brake modification) I had earlier asked that those actions NOT be done. \n\nThe management did a good job at easing the situation. They gave me a loaner car and offered some complementary maintenance and an upgrade (with my permission) to my 4Runner. \n\nThey replaced the modified gas pedal with a complete new unit, but the pedal was as small as the parking brake pedal and I hated it. I was able to get an after market pedal at my own expense and it's now similar to the way it was. \n\nI know there are positive reviews of Avondale Toyota and I would hope that going forward, they would not do unauthorized work or changes to other owners vehicles. \n\nTo some, I'm sure this may seem like a trivial thing and that I'm over-reacting, but to me it was a violation and a violation of my trust. I'm not angry and I don't carry a grudge, but it's unlikely I would trust them with my Toyota again. \n\nMy advise... Be wary."^^ . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . .
