| Description of the problem | My husband and i purchased a 2006 toyota tundra access cab on 11/25/06 at toyota of fort worth texas . Less than 6 days later, we were driving home on a street that leads to our house,less than a mile, we have been traveling this road for at least 15 years. It was slightly raining, we approached the curve to the left on this road. Made the curve and all of a sudden the wheels broke loose, my husband tried to correct but the truck began to accelerate, then turned completely sideways and crashed into two trees that were less than 5 feet from the road. It also appears that the 4 wheel anti lock brake system wasn't working. *jb |
