| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2006 toyota tundra - ball joint failure causing ball joint to break and wheel to come off. this also damages the fender on which ever side the ball joint breaks. toyota added more bolts and pieces to the ball joint but it didn't make the joint stronger and could happen quiet frequently until the problem is resolved by toyota. it starts with the steering becoming hard to handle and then all of a sudden your wheel falls off. thankfully we were in a parking lot when this happened and not going very fast. *jb |
