C! Mag's Lemon Camry V6

[mazdamazda]

Just read this in the October issue of C!

> Stitching for the rear bench's leather upholstery
> Wobbly steering at 100kph
> Spongy brakes

And the Camry just had 150km in it. The dealer (Toyota Pasong Tamo) didn't even offer a substitute car for the two weeks repair time for the steering problem.

yeah, read that article, too. too bad it's a lemon, and tough luck for toyota that it had to be C! Mag's test unit. if they don't do anything good about it, they're gonna be hearing and reading alot of negative feedbacks from the media.

let's hope its an isolated incident. however, this is a call for toyota, better build quality which is their reputation. it could happen to anybody.

Ang alam ko la pa tayong lemon law..... mas importante daw ang business ng mga local car manufacturers kesa sa consumers

Anyway, iba iba kasi ang definition ng lemon car per state sa US (may iba pa nga na may lemon law sa mga 2nd hand cars) but the most common definition is if the dealership fixed the same problem 3X tapos existing pa den yung problema. Meaning, pede na syang tawaging lemon car pag tatlong beses mo nang dinala sa casa at hindi pa rin nareremedyuhan after your 3rd visit. I would suggest bringing your car to the dealership and have them check your concerns ASAP. Have the problem documented tapos kung talagang ayaw mawala nung problema, magsusulat ka na sa mga people concerned sa Mazda about your car's problems. Minsan kasi nadadaan sa diplomasya..... limited din kasi talaga sa options ang consumers dito sa atin.
