| Description of the problem | Unresolved safety issues with 2007 toyota tundra: 1. Towing mirrors vibrate, previously reported toyota case # 200704230738. Mirrors are unusable above 40mph due to vibration. 2. Bed bounce is so severe on some roads, particularly i-10 between indio and los angeles, that it is impossible to carry on a normal conversation. Dealer response to both issues has been they all do this, so they cannot make a fix until toyota comes up with a solution. Internet reports prove that the dealer is correct: all tundras have these problems. Thus the problem is not with the dealer, but is indicative of first-year production problems. Hopefully toyota can resolve this to avoid invoking lemon law protection. |
