Ok, so I made a post about 2 weeks ago about my tC's alarm systemcausing fuses to blow. I'm sorry to say that things haven't gotten any better for me since my last post...
Latest update:
After the car being in the shop for a week and half, I talk to the service manager and he says that they can't get it to blow fuses when the alarm system is not connected. so, here is the plan of action, approved by toyota, apparently: I drive the car around this week and see if I can get any fuses to pop using it the way that I use my car(have the radio and the heat on at the same time *gasp*) and at the end of the week, they want me to decide between 2 options:
1-Take the alarm system out completely. I get my money back. This is not an option for me because I live in a fairly large city in a neighborhood known to be so so on safety.
2-Have an "aftermarket" non-scion alarm system installed in place of the one that I have. This is a better option than the first one, but I risk messing up my warranty with aftermarket parts and it downright just pisses me off, it seems that no one else has had this problem, so why should I have to settle?
I don't know what to do. I'm angry. I've called Scion and no one really seems to have an answer for me that I like. Either this dealership has been really pulling the wool over my eyes, or something is seriously wrong with my car. I just want to drive my new car and not have to worry about something going wrong with it all the time. I mean, I bought this car for all of the options(including the security system!), so why should I accept anything less than what I am expecting?
Any ideas?
