Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Since this truck was new we have had a problem with the rear brakes. One of the two wheels locks up; causing the truck to pull to whichever side is locking up. We have taken this truck to Toyota several times and after spending $100.00 or more they tell me that every thing is fine. The last time they told me it is because it is a 1-ton truck and the fact that we do not have the truck loaded is the problem, as this truck was made to carry a load of 1 ton. I have replaced the rear brake shoes as I was told that there were problems with brake shoes made in that time frame. …”
