SUSPENSION:FRONT
I HAVE RETURNED MY CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALERS ON FOUR OCCASIONS,THREE TIMES FOR A VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND BODY, TOYOTA HAS TOLD ME THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS VEHICLE AND PROCEDED TO PUT USED TIRES FROM A DEMO WITH 5000 MILES ON TO MY VEHICLE, I THEN LOST THE POWER STEERING COMPLETELY DUE TO PUMP FAILURE.I TOLD TOYOTA I WOULD FILE FOR ARBITRATION AND THEY TOLD ME WHEN THEY RECEIVE THE FORMS THEY WILL THEN TRY FOUR NEW TIRES AND RIMS AS A LAST TIME REPAIR. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH TOYOTA AND BELIEVE IF THIS VIBRATION IS NORMAL THEN TOYOTA NEEDS TO DO A RECALL AND MAKE NECESSARY REPAIRS. *AK
