So did you read the manual like it suggested ?
Look buddy, as soon as Rage Queen comes off his cortisone cycle, he’s drawing a map for me.
First thing I did was call the office I rented from. “Aww gee, that’s rough, how about you not fuel it up when you bring it back and we’ll call it square?”
Second, I called the Toy-Odor dealership nearest my location, who told me that if there are any service messages, that will stop the cruise control from working…lo and behold, there was a service message saying that required maintenance was due *soon*…not “overdue” or “DUE RIGHT FUCKING NOW”. Cleared the service due messages, and yet, the CC still refuses to work.
On a side note, fuck Toyota disabling systems that have nothing to fucking do with any “problems” that exist, in order to aggravate you into bringing the car in for a $17,000 service visit.
Third, stop at a local office in Springfield MO, and they offer to put me in a gasser, they don’t have any hybrids and none of the other area offices have any hybrids. But I should “go to the airport, they have more selection than we do”. Well let’s call them to get this arranged, I’m on vacation, FFS. “Oh, we can’t call them, they don’t have a number we can call, and we can’t check their inventory, you’ll have to just go there and see if they can help”. Riiiiiiiight.
Fourth, call “national customer service” to be greeted by someone with an accent so thick and speaking so fast that he has to repeat himself multiple times to even half-assedly communicate. “Oh, this needs to be escalated, the escalation team will call you back with a solution.
2.5 hrs later, still no call.
And yes, I read the fucking manual. It was as useless as that oh-so-informative fuck you message.
