    No notification because it is not a new recall. call the dealer service department and see if they will tape it.

    In my case I called corporate to see if I could use a local dealer instead of driving 150 miles one way back to the recall dealer. They called by dealer & they called me to arrange to get it done.

    No she will not because it is not a new recall. That is what Toyota Corporate told me.

    Their records show the recall has already been done.

    So if it's not a recall then there is no fire risk else it would have been a recall?

    There are hints it is for appearance but I know I had some damage on the upper side of that harness.

    I believe this is the tape.



    Does that look correct @Elektroingenieur ?

    I didn't end up doing it. The dealer finally got the update, and they're doing it.
