I have a dangerous steering issue. I tried to get my Toyota dealer to fix it, or adjust it but they said nothing was wrong. I feel they didn't want to even try. This issue has almost led to head-on collisions many times. I have replaced the tires, no help there. I had it aligned, (at dealer I purchased it from) with no improvements at all. What it does is, to stay in the center of the road I can not turn my head away from constantly adding steering input. This is an issue a big one, my car Drifts left or right but rarely goes straight when steered straight, I must constantly make adjustments to its direction. Before I replace the tires again, (the car has only 53,000 miles on it) and align it again I feel this problem must be fixed or properly adjusted to work without constant steering input to stay in my lane. I replaced tires with better than it came with, costing around $750 these are now showing bad wear after less than 20,000 miles and purchase information said I should not need to replace them for 60,000 miles. Additional information is the last 300 feet to my house is a dirt road, but it's not that bumpy and shouldn't be the reason that I can't steer it straight on asphalt.

Vehicle shakes violently at speeds between 50-60 mph. Have had tires balanced, aligned and even had Toyota dealership do a high-speed balance. Has been happening for at least 3 years. Truck is difficult to control at times due to the shaking.

Seat belt does not retract properly, it hangs up after a few inches. The frequency of this problem is 90% of the retracts. I told the dealer 4 times, they stated they couldn't find the problem. I scoff. Steering my car requires constant input to go straight, especially on the freeways. Before I know it I'm in the next lane. There is no neutral area in the center while going straight. I had an alignment and replaced all the tires, it still has this hazard. Brakes they pulse when slowing only at high speed. (65 mph) I do not ride the brakes, or run the car hard. This happened after normal driving. Seems like warped disks, but I do not stop fast, or drive like I'm racing. Note: Headlights had to be readjusted because they did not point up the road enough, making huge blind spot at over 40 mph. I had dealer re-adjust, they pointed the down so far they made it worse. I adjusted them again, myself. The factory off road package it came with, I'm sure was the problem. They should have been adjusted by factory before sale. Speed control when going uphill and set at 60mph and driving at safe distance from car in front, it speeds up, getting danger close, and must be disabled before hitting car in front. Will you pay for these fixes?

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Fj cruiser. While driving between 50-60 mph, there was an abnormal vibration in the steering wheel. The contact stated that the vibration made the vehicle uncontrollable. The vehicle was taken to miller Toyota (located at 8566 sudley rd, manassas, va 20110, (703) 369-3040) where it was diagnosed that there was a bent wheel; however, replacing it would not remedy the issue. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 48,000.

#8 - steering problem of the 2010 Toyota Fj cruiser the vehicle is a 2010 Toyota Fj cruiser. This vehicle can not maintain safe highway speeds of 55 to 60 mph due to severe wheel shimmy. I have had these wheels force balance about a dozen times, still having the same issue. Why won't Toyota look into this problem. I have tried new tires and still the same problem, so I put back the original tires and replace the rims, still the same problem..this is costing consumers a lot of money and time. Now I am replacing the rotors to see if that helps. I have done research on Toyota forums and the 2010 and new Toyota Fj cruisers are having a problem, and Toyota will not do anything on this safety issue. My concern I losing control at highway speeds.

When the vehicle reaches 65 mph the steering wheel shakes. Not a uncontrollable shake but its felt and it can be seen if the steering wheel is released. Shake continues up until about 70 mph. Have installed new tires and wheels with repeated balancing, but shaking continues.

Severe steering wheel vibration between speeds of 55-70 mph. Steering wheel will shimmy when traveling between the speeds of 55-70 mph. Has been a problem since new. Toyota dealer notified 3 times so far. They performed road force balance and alignment. Shimmy still present. Was told that "they all do this and it is normal". shimmy is so bad at time that vehicle feels unsafe to drive during these episodes, prompting me to quickly, sometimes unsafely slow down to below 55 mph. This has occurred in heavy traffic on highways and is definitely unsafe.

I have a copied a post I found regarding 2007 fj's, as I had the same problem with my '07 fj, and after 6 months of repairs and no solutions, I traded it in for a 2010 fj, and now I'm having the same exact problems, as described below: I have a 2007 Toyota fj. The steering seems terribly weak and unpredictable. I've had the wheels aligned three times, but the problem continues. Toyota says the there is no issue but that the steering on this style vehicle is just sensitive. While I really enjoy the vehicle, I'm always on full alert when driving knowing that at any given time, the steering may suddenly take the vehicle left or right with no predictability. I have never experienced a newer vehicle that requires so much attention to the steering. It may go left or right when the roadway surface changes, when encountering uneven roadway surfaces, when transitioning from wet to dry or ice to clear pavement, or for seemingly no reason at all. Often I find myself actually counter steering (inputting opposite tension on the wheel) to keep the vehicle from going leaving the lane I'm traveling in. It is very unpredictable while changing lanes. As I begin a slow move to an adjacent lane, the steering may suddenly just pull me over to which I then have to counter steer to keep from going too far. I took my 2010 fj to a Toyota dealer where I bought it here in abq, and they said they couldn't find anything wrong, of course. They said they would file a complaint with Toyota headquarters and sent me on my way. With my '07 fj I had the front brakes done, all new lug nuts, new tires, new shocks and struts, 7 alignments, and 3 rotation and balances (on the new tires), all within only six months using 5 different shops, and it still wasn't fixed. I am very unhappy and do not feel safe on the road in my 2010 fj. Please help.

This vehicle can not maintain safe highway speeds of 55 mph due to severe wheel shimmy. I have ask day Toyota, and spitzer Toyota and I get the same results, nothing can be done. I have been told it is the tires. I have replace both wheel and tires and have the same result. I have done research on Toyota forums and the 2010 and new Toyota Fj cruisers are having a problem, and Toyota will not do anything on this safety issue. My concern I losing control at highway speeds.

Steering wheel vibrates and shakes at random times between 50 and 60 mph.

Vehicle exhibits steering shimmy between 40-60 mph. Dealer has replaced 4 sets of lt tires and 1 set or rims. After each new set of tires and a fresh road force balance the tires and a few hundred miles of driven the shimmy would come back. The vehicle's door place card for the tires says 33psi and 35psi in two different stickers. The tires would self destruct within a few thousand miles and the dealer was unable to balance them again. This is a result of underin-flation for "E" rated tires. Toyota has since changed the psi to 46 vs 35 via a recall. In many cases the ECU needs to be replaced in order for this recall to be performed. Toyota motor sales is refusing to perform this recall going back to 2008 on vehicles not running the oe tire. Even if it is "E" rated. This created a serious safety hazard. Running under-inflated tires will heat up and risk a blow out. Running the NHTSA psi of 46 will cause the current toms to fail and defeats the whole mandated TPMS system.

My truck speed was 60-65 mph and my steering wheel began wobbling. I took it to dealer and they said nothing was wrong. Last week I serviced my truck and rotated and balanced the tires. Still same steering wheel wobbling. In high speed my steering wheel feels very loose. I don't know if there is a power steering problem or just simple tire balance. Other problem is my brakes. When I was driving down the road, I lightly pressed the brake to stop and driver side wheel hit a pot hole deep around 2 inches, then my truck didn't stop where I waned it to stop. It happens only at certain times. If I hit a pot hole or bump pressing brake.

2010 Fj cruiser steering wheel shake/vibration. Only occurs when driving the vehicle between 55 mph and 65 mph. Driving the vehicle on identical road conditions below 55 mph or above 65 mph does not cause the steering wheel to shake/vibrate. Steering wheel shake/vibration occurs during the above mentioned speeds, regardless of road conditions. Dealer claims this is normal and refuses to address safety issue. Steering wheel shake/vibration occurs even with different tire/wheel combinations.
