Toyota Recalls Some 2007 Tundra Pickups

December 14, 2007    Spanish

Toyota said the rear propeller shaft on four-wheel-drive Tundras could separate at a joint.

Toyota discovered the flaw after a consumer complained of abnormal noises coming from the shaft.

No accidents or injuries have been reported because of the faulty shaft.

Owners of the recalled Tundras will receive notification in the mail later this month, Toyota said in a statement.

The recall is not related to the previously reported rumbling sound coming from the Tundra torque converter after failing to change gears. That problem has not resulted in a recall but has prompted Toyota to replace entire transmissions.

Toyota also replaced some Tundra engines this year because of faulty camshafts.

Toyota projects 200,000 sales of the redesigned full-sized trucks this year.
