intermediate steering knuckle

30,330 miles on my 2004 pre-runner and the steering u-joint goes out???? No way...I called Toyoya Customer Care for help. Supposed to let me know Monday if they are going to help me out. Heck, the darn part alone is $400.00!!!!! & not available aftermarket of course.

More later.

 

hope they get that straightened out for you soon. if not..........start calling some junk yards and see if they may have anything.

 

anyone else have same/simular steering issues??

 

well once the steering column was apart...they found more damage due to the bad intermediate u-joint. All said and done= $1,200.00. Toyota Corp agreed to cover parts and dealer gave me 20% of labor..still cost 5 bills. Oh ya, included alignment.

 

pretty pricey, but glad you got it taken care of.
