1 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 07/21/2020

I want to see if the are recalls for my car ?.

2 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2011

Toyota wheel studs stretching and breaking off while driving. I work in the automotive field and have encountered many times where Toyota wheel studs will not torque properly. When using a torque wrench to tighten the nuts sometimes they will not click. If you continue the stud snaps in half and the lug nut spins right out. This happens because the metal the stud is made of is inferior. I have seen this happen while the car was in use months after service and resulting in a wheel off situation. Toyota dealer denies there is any problem but if have seen this at least a hundred times. I have asked other shops if they have encountered this and have been told yes. I have had Toyotas in various models from model year 2000 to present. Please investigate this before more accidents and tragedies happen from this. Wheel studs should not snap off so easily and this will end up killing people(it probably has). Thank you for your time and I hope the right thing is done. Which would be recalling the vehicles and having the studs replaced with quality parts.

3 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 05/09/2005

The chrome plated wheels were purchased from & installed by Toyota dealer when I bought the car. The plating started to peel off since early 2000. Then, my tires (no matter what brand of the tires I used) showed leaking on two of them due to the serious corrosion of the rims. I have to pump the air every week in order to maintain the correct pressure as of today. It's getting worse. . . I believe this is the issue causing by the wheel manufacturer Toyota authorized and the cheap materials they used. I bought the top of the line model with the chrome wheels installed by Toyota. Obviously, I didn't get what I've paid for!.

4 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 06/24/2000

Wheel vibration at 60-65 mph. Tires balanced 3 times and checked for run out. Original tires replaced with michelin. Problem improved but steering wheel vibrates side to side. Suspension noise from right front end when going over speed bumps, accelerating from a stop and after making left turns. Hear gas movement from fuel tank when tank is full and accelerating from a stop or going over speed bumps. Dealers say car perform to specs. Currently in the pre-arbitration stage with Toyota.
