What owners wrote
Was struck side struck by a vehicle running a red light. My head struck the drivers side window, transported by fire & rescue to local hospital. Hospital diagnosis was a "closed wound concussion". Other driver was charged on multiple counts. Mechanics that repaired my truck estimate the vehicle that hit me was travelling 40-45MPH. My airbags did not deploy. Impact area on my truck was front driver side quarter panel and front left tire. Have viewed a side impact crash test for my make, model and year.
I just purchased a 2010 tundra two weeks ago. While on highway this truck shakes uncontrollably. It feels like it is bending in the middle between a cabin and a bed. While driving everyone in the truck keeps bouncing off the seat at times. If this was disclosed as "normal" as dealer says I would have never bought this truck. Also I noticed scratches started appearing on my truck and it has on 500 miles on it especial around door handles. I am afraid to wash it.
