volunteer coordinator at nature park cleanup car vandalized

2 pounds of sugar dumped into the gas tank of the volunteer coordinator at the nature preserve that I volunteer at. $2300 of repairs so far on his scion and they haven't been able to test how far it got into the system. He believes that it was a local resident who uses the park for illegal activities and the work we do impedes on his ability to do so.

The work we are doing is restoring the area of the Columbian exposition in the Chicago world's fair back to native oak savannah.

Is this one of those situations where if I found the correct area at Toyota that they might help lower the costs of repairs? Any idea who that might be? I did send a note to the prius team on this site.

 

Not sure exactly what the $2300 is, not my car, but I think he said they have to pull the tank, flush it, and replace the fuel pump so far.

I remember posts on here that went to the effect of: part X broke 2 weeks after warranty expired and Toyota helped with the repairs. I was hoping to figure out who to contact to try and help him out.

While toyota may not have to help, they could provide parts at cost or reduced labor for this unique situation.

 

Good News!

The prius team from Toyota who posts on this site contacted someone else at Toyota who contacted Ross (scion owner). They covered 50% of the bill!

We had a work day on Saturday with 20+ volunteers led by a smiling Ross and a fully functional scion!

qbee42, the area we are restoring is on wooded island and Bobolink meadow and woods. If you do a google maps search for wooded island it should zoom right in, the area that is now bobolink meadow is probably the marshy area you are referring to.

Thanks to the Prius Team and Toyota! The work day on Saturday was so hot and humid that we forgot to take pictures, but we will on the next work day to send in appreciation.
