 Description of the problemDriving my 2006 toyota tundra on april 25 2014, i made a left hand turn onto a freeway on ramp , catastrophic ball joint failure on the drivers side causing me to loose control of the vehicle and hit the embankment. My car is supposedly 10 days out of the recall notice for the front lower ball joint and the dealership is refusing to honor the recall. Took my vehicle to the local toyota dealership estimated $1400 repair bill. Had the ball joint failed while i was on the freeway this could have been a serious tragedy. From my research ball joint failure is a known issue on 2002-2006 tundras but for whatever reason my car is 10 days outside the recall notice. .. Updated 06/27/14 *bf updated 10/21/2014 *js
