| Description of the problem | Recently while driving my 2007 toyota tundra, my driveshaft fell out of the slip yoke at the front of the truck behind the transmission. After a shuttering of the truck i finally stopped. Luckily, i was only going 10 mph and the damage was limited to the requirement for my drive shaft to be replaced. This is an item identified by toyota as a problem, however, my vin was not included in the safety recall. It seems with limited mileage on the vehicle, a catastrophic failure of the drive train would not have taken place. Updated 01/23/14*lj updated 01/23/14 |
