Had Prado service by Autocorner in November, they stuffed up & didnt tell me about low rear brakes,went to Sydney over xmas & brakes went metal to metal on rear. got them fixed while in Sydney by a friend who runs his own workshop there.
When back in Mackay aired my grievances with Toyota & got the dash replaced at a reduced rate due to their stuff up.
Still cost $1300.00 though (better than original quote of almost $1900.00.
Would not take my Prado back to Mackay Toyota ever again, very incompetent & overcharge for what they "don't" do.03 Grande, V6 AUTO.Red Metallic, Sovereign bar,Narva driving lights, GME uhf.

As a fellow victim of the dreaded dash cracking issue, just wanted to let you lot know that this appears to be a WORLDWIDE issue.
Simply Google ''Lexus GX Dash'' (it's essentially the same vehicle as our Prados) and you'll find plenty of aggrieved owners with the same issue in the USA and elsewhere.
Mr. Toyota deserves a collective foot in the ass for this, however I've resigned myself to purchasing a Shevron dashmate to cover most of the ugliness, and deleted Toyota from my new vehicle shopping lists forevermore.

I spoke to Mackay Toyota late last year 'bout cracked dashboard in my 120 & concerns that it could impede efficiency of airbags should they ever be deployed. Response was they weren't aware of any systemic problems with 120 dashboards ????
I suggested they have a look at the Prado Point forum.Barney 1587
