2000 TOYOTA TUNDRA. CONSUMER STATES PROBLEM WITH FRAME RUST *TGW THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER THE VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED UNDER RECALL AT NO COST TO HIM. SEVERAL DAYS LATER, THE CONSUMER WAS THEN TOLD THE RECALL REPAIR WOULD COST HIM $1,200.00. THE DEALER STATED THAT PRICE INCLUDED ADDITIONAL PARTS THAT WERE NEEDED TO REPLACE THE FRAME AS THEY WOULD MOST LIKELY NOT BE ABLE TO BE REUSED, AS PARTS WOULD BE DAMAGED AS THE TRUCK WAS DISASSEMBLED. THE CONSUMER CONTACTED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HE WAS TOLD TOYOTA PAID FOR THE FRAME REPLACEMENT, AND THAT ANYTHING ADDITIONAL REQUIRED BY THE DEALER WAS BETWEEN THE CONSUMER AND THE DEALERSHIP. *JB

SUSPENSION:REAR
2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA DOUBLE CAB 4X2 5.7LTR V-8. VEHICLE HAS AN EXTREME AND DANGEROUS "BED BOUNCE" OR VIBRATION AT ALL REGULAR HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON CONCRETE TYPE FREEWAYS WITH EXPANSION JOINTS. THE VEHICLE BECOMES VERY UNSTABLE AND FEELS AS IF CONTROL WILL BE LOST. IT IS COMPLETELY UNBEARABLE. DEALER REPORTS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA OWNERS. ALL 2007 TUNDRA MODELS EXHIBIT THIS FAILURE AND IT STEMS FROM A DESIGN FLAW IN THE CHASSIS/SUSPENSION. EVENT BEGAN FROM THE DAY THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN OFF THE DEALERSHIP LOT (11/25/07) AND CONTINUES TO DATE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS SERIOUS MATTER AND CORRECT THE ISSUE. *TR
