Description of the problem	My 2005 toyota tundra was in for service the mechanic said there was a recall on this truck so i agreed to let toyota replace my ball joints (recall no: 70b) after the replacement was done the vehicle steering began to fade to the left and then to the right i returned to the dealer and he said that it needed a few adjustments after driving it again the problem still existed after driving the truck for a few months i found that my tires were wearing due to feathering to the right and left also the vehicle became hard to hold straight in line while driving when i would run over a small depression in the road the steering would pull me in to oncoming traffic. I drove the truck back to the dealer 08/06/2007 they did a series of test but nothing worked. Final words you just have to live with it. I contacted toyota consumer complaint line and low and behold a recording came on addressing symptoms with the tundra the deal is i did not have this problem as they described it on the recording until after they replaced the ball joints. *jb
