I have 2008 Toyota Tundra that has developed a rearend whine/howling noise at highway speeds. I took the vehicle to Toyota and the technician quickly told me that my left rear bearing is bad. I have learned that Toyota has a problem with Tundra rearends and will not act. There are many postings on the internet about this issue. Please help if you can. I am at the point of needing legal assistance as well.

I have 2008 Toyota Tundra that has developed a rearend whine/howling noise at highway speeds. I have had it to the selling dealership 5 times at which they have ultimately rebuilt the entire rearend. It did not fix the problem and they are say now that I have to live with it. Toyota Corp. Will not act. This does have a tsb. Toyota has a problem with Tundra rearends and will not act. There are many postings on the internet about this issue. Please help if you can. I am at the point of needing legal assistance.

Tundra

  • 16,500 miles
The left front wheel bearings and the right rear wheel bearings failed after 16,800 miles on my 2008 Toyota Tundra. The vehicle was outfitted with a fifth wheel hitch and factory towing package. It was used seven times to tow a heartland rv foe approximately 4K miles. The trailer weight and tongue load complied with the specs. In the owners manual. All repairs were completed under the Toyota warranty. The dealer commented that fifth wheel towing is prohibited on the 2010 model which has the same rear end.
