QuestionRecently the wire-driven automatic power sliding door broke. After taking into the Toyota dealer, they wanted $900 for motor and broken wire and $600 for labor. Is their a less expensive solution for replacing this motor and broken wire?
AnswerHi Jack & Laura,
Absolutely! Call the number below and ask for Leo. The part you are looking for currently has no interchange and no compiled notes to let us know exactly what it fits or will fit from. Leo is our resident expert on finding non-interchangeable parts and getting them right the first time out the door. I'm sure we can help you cut that dealership quote by 75%.
Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).
Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
