is there anyone out there that knows anything about the 07 tC HVAC lights going out. mine went out i took it to the dealer they said they won't warranty it bcuz i got an aftermarket headunit and an alarm. if anyone know where i can get it fix please let me know. and yes i have use the SEARCH and i have read everything about it but i want to know if there is anything else out there that i dont know about the hvac. if anyone know anything about this please help me. any dealer that i can get it fix at contact number email or anything i really want it to get fix its bothering me bcuz its so dark in the car at night

 

First, they have no right to deny you warranty coverage unless they can prove the aftermarket stuff caused it.

Second, this is a known issue, or should be, with the 07. I am hearing of more and more of these failing.

Dont let them screw you around. Make them prove to you that your parts caused it.

If I had some access to an 07 with this issue, I would LOVE to tear into the HVAC to troubleshoot the issue. I could then provide proof of what is happening for people in this situation. Problem is, the 05-06 doesnt seem to ever have the issue and they changed the hvac on the 07, so I havent heard of any I could test on, since I cant test it in the 05 car.

 

the dealer said they can check it out but they said i have to take out my aftermarket headunit and my alarm in order for them to look at it and they would still charge me $270 and try to fix it i told them no bcuz i wanted to find out more proof to prove to them that it is an 07 defect i have try calling squalheart and he has been very helpful. and thanks for helping me out

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^ X2 what Dave said!

Go to another dealer if that one is screwing with you. You have warranty for a reason.

 

yea im planning to take it to another dealer but i was wondering if i should jus put my stock headunit back so they wont try to hassle me
the first dealer said that i cut into the factory harness which i never did i even double checked today myself n the only cut wire i see is the wire i cut from the aftermarket harness not the factory

 

Take it out. Go to another dealer.

 

call scion corp

 

can i have the number to scion corp please

 

i have the same problem too, do i have to go to the dealer i bought it at, it has just been 30 days since i got the car

 

its on their website

1866 70 SCION i believe

 

I am going to reccomend what I did for those with the hatch rattle (but no on would take the time to do it). Start a thread for NOTHING but info on the 07 HVAC issue. Collect some vin numbers and issues and send them to Scion. They eventually need to create a recall or at the very least a TSB for this issue.

 

please let me know if i can go to anoter dealer to see if they will fix my problem also because the place i bought the car from is too far
