| My 2000 toyota 4runner shakes at speeds above 60mph. it also does this while braking. it is visibly noticeable in the steering wheel, but all passengers in the car can feel the shaking and vibration. it becomes almost violent and alarming around 70mph. i have taken it to several repair shops and no one can find a solution. i have read hundreds of posts about this problem that ranges from 96-08 models. *tr | |||

| Today, observed significant rust on the passenger side longitudinal frame member. the frame rail was perforated for ~24 inches on the bottom, inside of the rail, next to the muffler and up to and including the mounting point for the rear wheel lower control arm. the rail was perforated to a width of up to ~1 inch. i am concerned about the structural integrity of the frame and am reporting it as it could be safety issue. i have reviewed descriptions and pictures of this issue on www.toyota-4runner.org forum and found that there are multiple occurrences of frame perforation in this exact location on 3rd generation 4runners (search frame rust or i can provide links). i called the toyota customer experience center and informed them of the issue (case#110-621-0707) and they indicated that toyota does not have an ongoing program to address this issue. | |||
