Consumer Description

VIBRATION IN FRONT ENT 55-64 MPH TIRES AND RIMS REPACED AT LEAST 3 TIMES. DEALER AND TOYOTA UNABLE TO CORRECT PROBLEM. VIBRATION IN STEERING WHEEL VARIES WITH TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS. WORSE IN TEMPERATURES ABOVE 70 F. DEALER AND TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE PROBLEM. THIS VIBRATION WAS EVIDENT DURING INITIAL ROAD TEST AND APPEARED TO BE TIRE BALANCING ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, TOYOTA IS REQUIRING UNDER INFLATED PRESSURIZATION OF TIRES AGAINST MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDATION WHICH MAY BE HIDING A MORE SIGNIFICANT ISSUE WITH THE FRONTEND CONDITION OF THIS MODEL TRUCK. WHEN DEALER REPRESENTATIVE FROM TOYAOTA TEST DROVE MY VEHICLE THIS WEEK, HE STATED THAT THE VIBRATION WAS WITHIN TOYAOTAS SPECIFICATION. BUT HE WAS UNABLE TO PRODUCE THE DETAILS OF SUCH SPECIFICATION. I URGE YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE WITH THESE TIRES AND TOYOTAS RECOMMENDATION FOR UNDERINFLATION. I THINK IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *AK (DOT NUMBER: DB72G14 TIRESIZE: P265/70R16)
