 Description of the problemThe u joints on my 2007 toyota tacoma deteriorated to the point in which i was forced to replace them, multiple times. This issue with the u-joints has now led to an increase deterioration in my drive shaft as well. Recently, i received a letter from the manufacturer stating there was a recent recall on the above described u-joints. Upon taking my vehicle to the dealership they told me several different stories. In the beginning, my drive shaft was supposedly just fine and in need of no repairs; they informed me that they would still replace the u-joints in question. Later on they changed their story to the drive shaft needing to be replaced completely due to wear on the item from the faulty u joints. After explaining background information they told me i was not eligible for the drive shaft to be replaced for free; blaming the damage on a previous mechanic who has been in business for himself for over 35 years. Now, as i am writing this complaint, my vehicle sits at the dealership, with me unable to utilize it due to the fact that they now say they will not put the drive shaft back on and i will have to pay out of pocket to get it towed. They are telling me that i am not eligible for recall status, they will not put my drive shaft back into my vehicle, and they are costing me and my family a lot of money due to the fact that my vehicle is my livelyhood.
