problem #2

Feb 012007

Tundra 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 41,000 miles
- while driving at 55 mphthe 2003/Toyota/Tundra ran into the retainer wall because the tie rod on the passenger's side snapped, lifting the truck. On January 11 2006 the dealer fixed the recalled tire rod end and ball joint. The contact believed that they should have also replaced the entire rod itself, they did not. He had the truck for seventeen days when the tie rod snapped. This almost killed his entire family. His was told to call the hot line by the dealer. The current and failure mileage were both 41000.
