A recall of Toyota's bZ4X was announced in June over concerns the electric crossover's wheels could fall off at speed, and now the automaker is taking extra steps to maintain customer satisfaction.
The US branch of Toyota has offered to buy back the bZ4X, reports Electrek. Your state and 'particular circumstances' will determine the terms, according to a letter to customers.
A compensation plan was outlined by the automaker for those who still desire an electric vehicle. A loaner car will be provided free of charge with fuel for the temporary car and storage for the bZ4X.
The company will also give you a $5,000 credit towards your loan, lease, or full purchase price. You will also be able to extend your warranty as well as receive free EVgo charging time as part of this offer.
As a result of the situation, the company has offered buybacks and other perks 'until a satisfactory remedy is made available.'
The recall also covers pre-orders for Subaru's sibling SUV, the Solterra, although that model has not yet reached American buyers, although there's still time for them to do so.
As of right now, there is no clarification on when or how Toyota plans to fix the Z4X wheel defect associated with the bZ4X sedan.
As a consequence of this, owners are facing a difficult situation as a result of the current situation.
The buyback program gives them a chance to purchase another vehicle, rather than constantly waiting indefinitely for a repair for the same vehicle.
