| Description of the problem | I have been having this screeching noise from the front under the hood next to the tires. When driving i felt its vibration and the front wheels were about to come off. I took it to my mechanic to look at it and he told me that the bolt joints on both side of the front are about to come off. He told me that he had seem customers wheels came off the freeways. On february 6, 2014, i have the bolt joints replaced in the total amount of $1,014. 98. With this issue, i am very concern why toyota has not recall this problem. My problem could have been worse if i was driving on the freeway and the wheels come off. Who knows what would have had happened. All i want is to have this matter solved by toyota pay my service bill. |
