Side indicator problem - Toyota Yaris Forums

pj1989 · 01-04-2009, 10:33 PM

Hey all,

About 6months ago I bought a 2005 YR with only 4000kms on it. I noticed to start with the side indicators beside the front doors were a little wobbly but didn't think to much of it. Since then the whole things on both sides decide on a regular basis to part company with the body of the car and flap around in the breeze while I'm driving and I can see in the holes where they used to be there is some glue marks. I think the clips may be broken that hold them into the panel. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so did toyota fix them for you? did they charge anything?

Thanks!!!

A '05 Yaris with only 4000km on it? I'm on 2300km and I've had it for 3months.

Anyways they shouldn't charge you, but from all the reading I've done here, it seems like they charge you for anything in USA/
