At 65 mph on NY I-87S - without any warning my Toyota Tacoma suddenly dragged to the right. Guided truck to the right shoulder - went to see what had happened. Found passenger side rear tire was not intact. Found the tire tread was wrapped around the axel - separated from the rim. Have never seen anything like this. Tire was demolished. Contacted tire manufacturer (Continental/general) and dealer (mavis). They informed me that there was nothing they could do. Tire was warrantied for 60K miles - I had <17K on tire.

Dunlop AT20 P245/75/R16 dot M670 C8er 1012, tires are the second set to be replaed on my 2007 Toyota Tacoma. First set failed to meet the manufactures warranty of 70K miles with only 43K on tires. Were replaced after much hageling with good year. After putting 23K on second set of tires, found one with a large bubble in the outer sidewall. If this tire were to have blown out, a truck this size would have lost control and the possiblity of severe injuries were present. Again I am hageling with good year to replace the tire, although defective, I am expected to pay $43 cost to replace it. This on a defective product, and should be at no cost to the consumer.

2007 Toyota Tacoma double cab offroad 4X4. Vehicle surges (RPM increases 200-300 RPM)when in gear at a stop. Doesn't matter if ac is on or off. This has caused numerous near accidents with vehicles in front of me, my garage door and the work bench in my garage. Vehicle idles extremely fast (1500 RPM) when cold which is dangerous on slippery roads and has caused me to slide through stop signs. Vehicle idles rough, doesn't matter if ac is on or off. Vehicle has a harsh stutter shift between 1st and 2nd. Vehicle has a very noticeable vibration at speeds between 15 and 25 mph. This vibration occurs when accelerating, driving at a constant speed or decelerating. The vibration occurs whether braking or not. The vehicle feels like it is engine braking when letting up on the accelerator. This is most noticeable at speeds 40 mph or slower. It is a safety hazard on icy roads. All these problems began after the vehicle had 500 miles on it. The dealer was made aware of these issues and test drove the vehicle. The dealer said they could not detect any of the problems. Also, the original equipment tires are terrible in snow.
