2014 Corolla S - Annoying Noise Coming from the Drivers Side
- Thread starter moises
- Start date
I took the car to the dealer yesterday to its first 1,000 Kms, service, that was an oil and filter change, they charged around Us 75.00 for the oil and filter. They don't charge labor for the first two services. Next one will be at 3,000 Kms. I had to drive one of the mechanics around so that he could hear the rattles that I had reported and he confirmed that I was right. At the end of the day I picked the car up, and was told that they need to keep the car for a few days in order to fix the noises, but that they will give me a car that belongs to the dealer while they work on my Corolla, that will be next Monday. I see they are willing to cooperate and really hope the will fix these little, but annoying issues. Was told that they have a manual from the factory telling them which pieces are the ones that could cause the rattles, but I am not so sure if such a manual has been delivered from the factory? They do understand that the owner of a new car doesn't like rattles. Hoping they will fix them, but I will make sure to follow up with them.
Took the car to the dealer, they kept it for a week and gave me another car for the intended period. The rattles from the dashboard and right back door were fixed, there is another rattle that comes from the console that is between the front seats, but that one I have found the solution and that is to put a card folded several times and that puts pressure in between the two little plastic doors and the rattle is gone. I will look for some little rubber or plastic pieces to give a more permanent solution. After all it was worth to take it to the dealer.
