My Auris Badge has fallen off luckily enough I retrieved it. What do you use to restick this back on? and as the car is under 1.5 years old should i take it back to a dealer and have them put it back on...I feel this is poor as the other badges don't appear too secure either. Never in my puff has the badges from any of the cars I have owned fallen off. Probably poor adhesive..who knows.

Take it back to the dealer and get them to fit a new Badge

The Auris is the best result of the capitalism philosophy we have installed in today's world. Toyota's benchmarking probably feel big thanks to this car. Toyota went and did what so many auto makers are doing, design in Belgium, manufactured in Turkey/UK with parts build in Japan, Turkey, UK etc.. This mixtures are not good at least in my head, maybe from the economic €€€ point of view works like a charm but not in my head. Not even my old "crapy" saxo with 10 year old ever lost a Badge and spent half of his life outside in the street with Portugal's hot summer sun.

Anyway I don't want to blame anyone in Belgium, Turkey, UK or so but I also work in an R&D of a multinational and it is much easier to develop a product and avoid/correct errors when we are working very close to each other. You get to know who is responsible for what and establish much better communication. This global production world simple does not work and Toyota should see this. I'm not saying not to produce a car in Turkey, or UK, but at least put everything in one place it is much easier.

Sorry to ear about your problem and sorry for the off topic

I agree with modern adhesives etc these cheap plasticy chrome effect badges should not fall off.....
