2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED EXCESSIVELY TO THE POINT WHERE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BOUNCED UP AND DOWN ON THE CONTACT'S FOOT. THE FAILURE WAS MOST NOTICEABLE WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT COULD NOT PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THROUGH RESEARCH AND PROFESSIONAL CONSULTATIONS, THE FAILURE WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE HARMONIC VIBRATION CAUSED BY THE EXPANSION JOINTS. THE CONTACT FILED A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 209.

YOU ALREADY HAVE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT TAILGATE FAILURE ON 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA TRUCKS. I HAVE READ ABOUT THEM AND SEEN THE PICTURES. I HAVE PERSONALLY CONTACTED TOYOTA MOTORS TO GET A SAFE WEIGHT MAXIMUM FOR THIS TAILGATE AND THEY HAVE TWICE REFUSED TO PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION. IN THEIR LATEST CORRESPONDENCE THEY CLAIM THE TAILGATE HAS NO RATING AS IT IS NOT A WEIGHT BEARING PART. THIS CONTRADICTS THEIR OWN WEBSITE WHERE THEY SELL A BED EXTENDER ACCESSORY THAT IS USED TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY BY USING THE TAILGATE AS A WEIGHT BEARING PART OF THE TRUCK. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE TO FORCE TOYOTA TO REVEAL THE SAFE TAILGATE WEIGHT LIMITS. *CN

ON AUGUST 2007 I PURCHASED A TOYOTA TUNDRA. IT IS SUFFERING TERRIBLE BED BOUNCE ON THE HIGHWAY. SO MUCH BED BOUNCE THAT I CANNOT HAVE CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES.

IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT TOYOTA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THESE ISSUES AND RECALLED THE VEHICLE FOR A FIX. I HAVE STOPPED DRIVING THE TUNDRA AND CONTINUED DRIVING MY OTHER CAR. *TR
