| 2005 toyota 4runners have a very frequently reported vibration issue. this issue is reported all over the web and acknowledged by dealers nationwide. from my understanding, 2004 to 2007 4runners are all impacted. customer spend 1000s of dollars replacing tires, balancing wheels, replacing steering wheels, etc and the car still vibrates and is suspect to be unsafe. this is a well known issue and toyota claims that this is the design of the call. steering wheel can shake badly. i have had my 4runner in many times for this issue to multiple dealers. all say it is a problem, but all 4runners of same vintage have same issue, so nothing that toyota will do about it. *tr | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2005 toyota 4runner. while driving 55 mph the front of the vehicle started shaking. the contact inspected the wheels, noticed four lug nuts on the passenger front were missing, and the other three tire lug nuts were loose. the dealer stated that they have never seen this kind of problem. there is a recall for the 2003 model (recall# 02v339000). the contact feels his vehicle should be included as part of the recall. the current mileage and failure mileage were 30000. | |||
