Default Toyota of Garden Grove (Toyota Place)

Part 1,
I just puchased my FJ 35 days ago. I did alot of homework before purchasing my loaded 4x4 2007, FJ I needed more room for the family dogs ect.
I took my 2004 TJ Willy's special edition (Rubicon Lift 3'1/2" 33's BFG's Disco's CAI) ect. to Toyota of HB I knew It knew it was worth more that a dealer could probabaly give me but we will see what happens.
I took it to HB Toyota and they would not give me close to the pay off and wanted to sell me a FJ and put the balance on the fj. Kind of expected it so no way jose..
I was out of there. So I was going to sell my TJ in the auto trader..
So I see an FJ advertized at Toyota Place that was loaded... I drove there to show the family and see how the kids liked it for the future purchase.
Love at first sight... Toyota said what can we do to sell this you car.....
I let them know what I needed for my jeep ect ect
They gave me what I wanted for my JEEP gave me a great deal on the FJ off of an internet price as well and I drove home with it..

Part 2
30 days later
I found out (relized) I had the sinking seat issue... I called the service manager VM, he accually called me back and I let him know my problem gave him the TSB # and he said bring it in you are covered..
I am waiting for a new seat to come in...

Moral of the long story is I am real happy with Toyota place of Garden Grove...
They offered me a rental car or courtesy van ride when I go back for the seat.

Default For what it is worth...

It is done!

The FJ went thru the TSB fix with no issues at all. I have the airbags so my entire seat was replaced, material and all. It took 2 hours with a car wash.
I was pretty happy I had my warranty and it was 2,675.00 !

Toyota Place of Garden Grove took care of everything....
