problem #1

Nov 052005

Tacoma 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,400 miles
Just bought 2005 Tacoma prerunner double cab 4X2 trd off road vehicle after driving it for a couple of days when driving on the highway and reach speed between 60 to 72 mph the vehicles sways back and forth like a patch of wind is pushing the vehicle or when passing a semi truck the vehicle will sway back and forth. Brought back to dealer mechanic said that is a common problem now with this vehicle and there is no fix for it. This is a serious problem which can cause an accident at high speeds. Its like the wind is blowing the vehicle from side to side. Don't know if Toyota is aware of the problem but I would appreciate if this could be investigated and reported to Toyota for a recall and fix this serious problem. I have been searching for a fix to this problem with no success as of yet.
