UK cablegate is now getting attention under warranty and customer satisfaction programme

Just a note for anyone in the UK, it seems that the cablegate issue is now starting to get attention under warranty.

I have an open complaint with Toyota customer support over this and another issue, and I have been told by them and the dealership that they will be covering it under warranty.

This may not be for everyone, perhaps only for those with a direct complaint about it, however it does now seem like it's getting traction under their customer satisfaction programme.

What this means I don't know yet, it may be inspection and preventative measures rather than a full cable replacement depending on how severe it is. But they do want to inspect it first, it won't be an outright replacement it sounds like.

If the dealer says no, I'd suggest you open an official complaint.

I hope that helps someone else.
