Tacoma

  • 133,000 miles
The contact owns a 1999 Toyota Tacoma. While driving approximately 55 mph, the front driver's side wheel suddenly fell off the vehicle. The contact lost control of the vehicle, but was able to safely pull off the road. Upon inspection, she noticed that the upper ball joints failed. The dealer stated that the ball joints needed to be replaced at the contact's expense because there was no recall for that component. The manufacturer did not provide any assistance. The current and failure mileages were 133,000.
