Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2001 toyota tacoma was involved in a accident. at the trial the accident reconstruction person said he could not understand why the crash happened that it looked like some one had yanked the wheel very hard. the trial was for manslaughter and it took place before the recall. the truck was never inspected by a mechanic. i feel this was the cause for the accident. *jb
