| Description of the problem | Seat rail loose on drivers side seat. Seat is bolted firmly to floor but the rail that it slides on is loose. Problem started at 30,000 miles and truck has 40,000. Toyota want 1100. 00 to fix the seat because its out of warranty. Toyota offered to pay for the rail at 700. 00 and i pay 300. 00 for install. As i research this model of tundra on the internet, this issue is common. This truck is unsafe with a loose seat rail and i feel that it should not have to be replaced every 30k miles. It should be recalled!!! |
