| Description of the problem | Currently leasing 2005 toyota land cruiser. This is the second one since original purchase. After 1500 or so miles the car started shaking. I have had it in for service checking for tire balance, and i have also paid for alignment etc. After complaining to toyota corporate they authorized 4 new tires and local dealership checked the car. They didn't find anything too significant but agreed to try the new tires. Im wondering is this a transmission issue. Since the new tires the shaking is worse. The investigation is still ongoing, awaiting toyota to approve the next step. I understand that this has been an issue with other 2005 land cruisers. *nm |
