| Description of the problem | Excessive bouncing on freeways speeds 45-70 some worse than others (91freeway east around corona, ca )is good example of the bounce i have had trucks all my life so some bounce is understandable. When i took it to the dealer in march 07 they told me toyota was aware of the problem and was trying to figure out a solution in january 08 i contacted toyota through there web site and they replied they had no complaints about this problem. May be they fixed it since then on the 08 but this is more than a little bounce. Bouncing like it dose what's going to happen when i have to come to fast stop ? And the extra vibration can't be go fortunately i don,t have a infant. Please check into this but use one of the earlier 2007 like i said i have driven pickups all my life and can't tell you how bad the bouncing gets i will be happy to let you drive my truck . I am very disappointed that the dealer keep putting me off saying toyota is aware off the problem and then toyota saying they are unaware of the problems and have had no complaints. |
