“I just received a recall on my Tacoma tire pressure monitoring system. For months I've noticed that my truck would weave towards the left side. And now hears a clicking noise on side of truck like something got loose from pulling to left side. Didn't think any thing of it until having this recall so im now concerned if it was the tire monitoring system that failed to let me know what to do before this problem escalated. I want my truck inspected and with new tires due to manufacturer failure.”
