SERVICE BRAKES
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 TOYOTA TACOMA SR 5 EXTENDED CAB. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 3-4 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE DROVE OVER A ROAD BUMP AND THE LOWER BALL JOINT PROCEEDED TO DETACHED FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT TIRE. THE VEHICLE THEN UNEXPECTEDLY DRIFTED FORWARD THREE FEET. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE LOWER BALL JOINT DETACHED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, ALONG WITH THE BRAKE LINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY CONFIRMED THE VIN FAILED TO QUALIFY FOR REPAIRS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER:05V225000 (SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER BALL JOINT). THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 129,660.

POWER TRAIN
THE TRUCK SHUDDERS OR VIBRATES WHEN ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING. THE SOURCE OF THE SHUDDER APPEARS TO BE THE DRIVE SHAFT AND CARRIER BEARING. TOYOTA HAS INCLUDED THIS MODEL IN THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THE SHUDDER. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP AND TOYOTA FAIL TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE TRUCK BEFORE THEY SELL IT TO A SUCKER LIKE ME. ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS A VIBRATION FROM THE FRONT END WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES, ESPECIALLY WHEN BRAKING FROM HIGH SPEEDS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD THE TECHNICIANS GO THROUGH THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. THE TECHNICIANS CONFIRMED THE SHUDDER, AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE FROM A COMPANY LIKE TOYOTA. THIS ISSUE QUALIFIES UNDER THE "LEMON LAW", BOTH STATE AND FEDERAL. I AM GOING THROUGH THE LEMON LAW PROCESS NOW TO TRY TO GET MY HARD-EARNED MONEY BACK. I AM GOING TO TELL EVERYONE I KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEMS WITH THE TOYOTA TRUCKS. ADDITIONALLY, THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED IN THE TOYOTA TUNDRA 4X4. *TR
