Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The vehicle rocks and sways back and forth like it's going go totally out of control at various speeds. it is worst in windy conditions. the dealership has replaced all four shocks and has had the truck on three different occassions. they said they contacted toyota and was told not to do anything else. the dealership acknowledges there is a problem, but will not do anything else under the warranty, because toyota said not to. the vehicle is very unsafe to drive at this time. it is my only means of transportation. i hope that you can please help me. i don't know what else to do. this is my 3rd toyota truck sense 1988. talking to the service rep and test driving it with one of there mechanics and them all saying there is somthing wrong with the suspenion and also changing the shocks to try and alieviate the problem, but yet refuse to do anymore to fix the problem, is something i don't understand. i hope that you can help me.thank you. *ak
