found a place -other than dealer- to put in new pump. I'm happy. Leo & Sons Auto Repair - Lawrence, MA Auto Care Since 1975
Got bad news from Toyota corporate...they won't extend the "limited service campaign" that expired in 2017 to cover my bad actuator. Dealer wants...
So found out more.....I'm on a learning curve. Vehicles have official 'recalls'...and they also have CSP warranty extension. With these, Toyota...

Thanks for this tip! Have an ABS/ brake light issue....need a hybrid dedicated place, last resort before dreaded dealer.

How /where does one re-gas gas struts? Mine are certainly weak. They start lifting only after hatch is half way open. See no sign of...
That would be ideal. Reinforcing the plastic voids under the two central bolts (most crucial) would really be ideal. Don't know what Toyota was...
For a while, the 'hood' you grab to lift back hatch dangerously bowed out threatening to snap off. I'd have to pop it open a crack, then lift by...
