2004 Toyota Tundra with a limited slip differential. On wet payment, if both wheel spin at the same time ( loose traction), the truck bed will kick left and put the truck into a spin. The truck was taken to the dealer and the dealer said the lsd (limited slip differential) was functioning. He asked me which side the truck kicked. I told him left. The dealer has seen this problem before with this truck kicking left. The dealer stated I had to contact Toyota motor sales and file a complaint. This was done and I was refereed to Toyota regional office in fl. I was contacted by them and they told me that the lsd was functioning correctly and that Toyota has no intention of fixing this problem. This problem need to be fixed!
