Consumer Description

TOYOTA TUNDRA POWER STEERING RACK AND PINION FAILURE. WHILE DRIVING MY TRUCK THE POWER STEERING RACK AND PINION FAILED. I HEARD A POP SOUND AND PULLED OFF THE CITY ROAD TO INSPECT MY VEHICLE. UPON DOING SO I NOTICED THE STEERING WAS DIFFICULT TO MANIPULATE AND UPON INSPECTION FOUND POWER STEERING FLUID ACTIVELY LEAKING OUT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BELLOWS BOOT. MY VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 47,000 MILES AT THIS TIME.
