| Description of the problem | I recently purchases a used 2007 toyota tundra double cab from a private party. I test drove the vehicle on ac pavement with no major issues, but upon purchasing and driving on my typical freeway commute traveling at normal speeds (55-70mph) it shakes violently. The shaking resonated at one point so violently that i lost control of the vehicle and had to drastically slow down to regain control. I am fearful of my safety and that of any passengers, especially my children. I have subsequently found forum information online that speaks to this "bed bounce" problem, and a relevant tsb from toyota. However, i cannot find an official tsb from toyota online or a genuine fix to the problem. Please help because i feel like i just bought a vehicle that is not safe to drive, and needless to say very angry that toyota has not addressed this problem in full. |
