Toyota should warn consumers on ball joint failure

I was always a happy owner of my 2005 Toyota Tundra. Now i will never own another Toyota again. My front wheel fell off because of the ball joint failure. I just had it in Deery's Brothers Toyota 2 months ago about an air bag replacement and I asked them to check the terrible noise in front end. The service department said everything was fine. By God grace that I was not killed or killed someone else my front drivers side wheel fell off in a Menards parking lot last Friday. Toyota has a problem. I called Deerys on Tuesday because I saw there was a recall on the ball joints and mine was replaced and I told the nice person they needed replaced or looked at again. I got no response. I am hoping a class action lawsuit will be made and Toyota owns up to this terrible design. Sorry Toyota after years of bragging about your vehicles I am now one who is very disappointed by your cars and trucks. Thank you and I hope no one gets killed driving your vehicles.

Vanilla with a twist

I looked at every make of double cab I could find. Sure the Titan appealed to my inner-gorilla, but it didn't handle as well or feel as solidly built as the Tundra. Plus the torque seems better & placed where you'd need it on a daily basis. The new Tacoma is sharp, but too small. I'm 6'3" & haul a wife, 2 kids, camping gear, kayaks mountain bikes and a dog and the Tundra does it all without missing a beat. It's got plain jane styling on the outside, big deal: this truck is quiet, packed with power,handles well, will probably go 300k+ miles and is cavernous inside (for most). Only complaint is a phantom creak in the driver's seat when making right turns

Owned a 2005 Toyota Tundra, 4WD crew cab for 3 years now. Drives alright. Ergonomics of layout of controls is not great. Large blind spots on either side. Tows my 28 ft. trailer on level land alright but the least hill and the V8 really struggles. Good 4 wheeling truck. Not enough power and torque, I don't think I will buy one again.

I have been a fan of Toyota reliability for many years. The 2005 Tundra double cab that I recently purchased is an awesome vehicle. Roomy cabin, great lines and with performance to boot. I would reccomended it over the Titan anyday.

I've driven trucks that felt like the steering was dead(chevy). This is by far the best large truck with great comfort.
