CRITICAL STEERING

The steering on my 2016 seems very sensitive compared to the 2009 Tacoma I traded in for it, has anyone else noticed this?

 

Oh no, here we go again

 

I haven't driven older tacomas, but I think the steering wheel takes a lot of turn to get the car to turn. Compared to other vehicles I've driven, I think it's not very sensitive... but not too bad as well.

 

My steering is perfect nice and responsive like it should be even with the 33's

 

My steering is phenomenal

 

Do you want it to not be responsive?

 

Mine seems like I have to keep over compensating for it , it's not out of alignment or anything.

 

Did you have the alignment checked?

 

My feels normal. Much better feel than the craptastic electric steering in other trucks.

 

CRIMAR30, I would think that would be a good thing. Might just require a little getting accustomed to.

 

Seems normal compared to my 11 I had before this one. I actually like it better since I've got the newer steering wheel now.

 

Mine's great. Same as my 06.

G.

 

Have appointment to check alignment tomorrow.

 

I did notice this for the first couple weeks of ownership, I found myself "wandering" a bit in my lane, but since have acquired the skill to drive in a straight line.

 

Dealer did alignment, all is well.

 

No, I did not notice this because I've never driven your 2009 Taco...!!

 

Are you "off" the weed...?

 

I was going to start a new thread on this, but I think I'll just resurrect this one. Mine has been doing the same thing, and its starting to bother me. It needs constant little corrections at highway speed. Left, right, left, right-its not just pulling to one direction. It was greatly exaggerated during the short time I had slightly oversized tires on. I guess I'll have the alignment checked, but it doesn't seem like any alignment issue I've ever heard of. Anyone else have this issue?

 

Me Too! Steering is wandering and will drift left to right. Needs constant correction. Seems the truck is not aligned or steering is way over sensitive, ECT button seems as if it's on all the time. TOYOTA TACOMA PEOPLE you may have a design issue????stock tires and pressure (door jam 29 psi) 18's... ...

 

Didn't they go to electric power steering at some point during the 2nd generation. Might be what your noticing in the 3rd is difference between traditional power steering and electric.
