Question for OP. What is your tire pressure at? If overinflated sometimes at certain speeds it can cause it

36 at the moment, doesn't seem pressure related. Although someone suggested I overinflated to see if it changes anything.

That should be good. Usually you under inflate to get more rubber on the surface. Over inflated can cause more uneven thread wear according to my off road mechanic. My old truck had uneven thread wear and caused shaking to steering wheel. When I changed tire pressure down to 27, it went away. Temporary until I got new tires. They was my mechanics suggestion.

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned? But one of his videos he talks about unbearable noise and vibration from the OEM roof rack.

I did offer to drive, and to be blunt and honest, where I live in S. Florida, if your doing 75 on I95, your probably in the right lane.

Can confirm- 75 on i95 is arguably a hazzard/death wish

Greetings fellow soFlo TH. Sorry for your woes-

Which dealers have you dealt with? — so i can stay clear of them.

Can’t help your situation, but I can deny them my buisness as a sign of TH solidarity

A TSB was just issued for that.

Finally fixed...


Dealer refused to drive the truck over speed limit. Saw someone post TSB 0016-25 and I requested the dealership to install it, with the help of a customer advocate.

Friends, we have reached the day when you have to diagnose and recommend your own fix.

Vibration has ceased, but nearly took an act of congress to get action.

We sure have reached that day, and it has been coming on slowly for some time.

And it's not just trucks either. I bought a high end home theater sound system and it doesn't work properly and the vendor (Crutchfield) has not been able to diagnose the problem. They are known for their product support, but so far all they have come up with is searching through their techs to try to find someone who knows WTF is going on. Pathetic.

The Service departments are unbelievably frustrating

Which is what?

Disregard. The roof rack.

It was the damn roof rack?

It was the damn roof rack?

Yes, it was

 

[CrispyTacoLover]

Yes, it was

They need to pull that roof rack off the market. Glad you got it resolved.

2024 Tacoma Trailhunter vibrates at 75 mph.

Brought it to my local service center and they refused to replicate the issue. Was advised they will not drive it 75 mph.

Called Toyota Brand Central. They opened a case and got back to me weeks later with the same response from service center. They advised me to call Toyota Corp.

Opened a new case with Toyota Corp. Returned to me 2 weeks later with same response. Their position is there is nothing they can do.

Called a Lemon Law attorney, and they basically took the same stance.

If you plan on driving a vehicle over the local speed limit, it appears, it's your problem. A lot to consider when buying a 70k vehicle.

Can you determine if the vibration is coming from the front or the rear? Do you feel it in the seats? If not, where do you feel it? The dealer doesn't like anyone to try to diagnose their own vehicle and instead of telling them to drive it 75 just ask them to go for a test drive with you.
