Suspension Noise problems of the 2010 Toyota RAV4

While driving vehicle began to shake or "wobble" . Upon inspection was found to be tire which was uneven in wear. Replaced tire and after a short time was found not to be the problem. Upon inspection was found seals on rear differential leaking . Closer inspection found rear suspension, tie rod loose. This we believe is due to rear suspension parts being faulty. Parts are original. At this time we are being told that it is not covered under any vehicle warranty or recall. This is a major safety problem as it caused vehicle to loose complete control. At this same time vehicle rear differential also began to give off a "whine" sound. The tires have been worn unevenly due to rear suspension being loose causing this failure. Our concerns are that we are being told there is no warranty or recall to correct or protect anyone owning and driving without knowledge of this problem. It should be known that tires worn uneven were on & from rear of vehicle. No front tires had been worn unevenly with this incident.

Received notification of recall due to rear lower suspension arms over 6 months ago. Have been waiting for remedy from Toyota which obviously never came. Starting to hear noise from the side and rear of vehicle. No accident as of yet, but am not willing to wait any longer. Completely irresponsible on Toyota's part . Shame on you - does someone have to get hurt or worse before you step up and fix this problem. My first and last Toyota buy.
