Factory Tow bar 3Door / Rear Side Demisters

Postby sevastg on Tue Jul 20, 2010 4:58 pm

Hi All,

Took my ZR in for warranty yesterday -

1. Rear left hand side interior vibrates
2. Side Demisters not working
3. Voice Recognition not working


Well it seemed that 1 & 2 were related, the explanation i got was that when the tow bar was installed by pre delivery; the side demisters where disconnected as the wiring harness crosses that side . The side rear demisters also double up as the antenna too... :shock:

So the car is going back again so all the wiring can be checked, they basically need to remove the rear interior including seats, carpet and side panels :cry:

Voice Recognition still not working, will be checked with the above (Third time)

Has anyone else used the side rear demisters?

Regards,
G

Hi G,

I'm really interested to see if they can fix your voice recognition problem. See my post titled "ZR/Kakadu voice recognition doesn't work" in the General (150) forum for more info. My dealer raised a Dealer Product Report (DPR) on this issue at the beginning of March and I've still heard nothing!

Cheers,
Mazza

Do you really think the voice recognition thing is a real problem. I now have a voice tag for at least 100 of my contacts and although it does always say that their are multiple matches, it only gives you a choice of 3 andf the one I want is always on the top. All it means is you have to tap the screen once to get the number to work. While I am sure it is nt meant to be like that, I dont find it a hassle to use or anything.
Thanks,

Adam

Hi Guys,

LOL, after the dealer claimed that the car was fitted with side window demisters... seems that they are only antenna's :roll: .

The voice recognition was not fixed as they claimed it was working as per normal, but my Lexus has a similar feature and dials the matched voice tag with no further interaction. I requested they raise with Toyota.

interior vibrations fixed at last! after 4 attempts :lol:


Cheers,
G
