Water pump failed at under 60k, but was just over 60k miles when I brought into Toyota Dealer (Rudy Luther, Minnetonka MN). Toyota denied claim and won’t stand behind a water pump failure. This part doesn’t have any maintenance needed per manufacture documentation within the miles I have on vehicle. Further - this is becoming a topic within many forums that Toyota has an issue with water pumps and is fully aware of this. I’d like to see Toyota take care of this issue and pay for this repair.
