Tacoma jerks on the highway

My tacoma has 8k miles on it but on the highway sometimes it jerks and shakes above 50mph and I don't know if that's normal? Is my tranny going out or something or something with my wheels? Any advise is a help. (New oil, normal gas, no dash lights coming up. It does have an aftermarket exhaust a carven progressive muffler setup)

 

Have you had your alignment checked? Tired re-balanced?

 

I thought you were calling out Tacoma owners on the highway.

 

A Tacoma jerk cut me off at an intersection on highway 12 once, then did about 35mph in front of me in a 50mph zone. He was stopped at a red light, too.

 

Need to have it checked at the dealer. Could be a lot of things.

 

This is the way I read it too.

 

If at 8k you have not balanced and rotated the tires that's step 1 and make sure it's a road force balance. Check all pressures on door label as if too hard (32-35psi normal) shake will be enhanced.
Discount normally has one of those and most dealers do too as a normal Tacoma issue that they want well balanced front tires.
If not that then under warranty so the dealer. If you had any of the cats or O2 modified all bets off and dealer will not want to help.

 

Torque converter shudder my guy….

 

Does the steering wheel shake to?

 

That's what I was going to suggest, but the general consensus around here is that never happens to anybody's truck

My 2021 did it around 45-55 light tip in on throttle. Dealer said it was normal.

 

Who you calling a Jerk?

 

Welcome to the 3rd gen mini van motor with a horribly matched transmission. Just how it operates. Get it tuned, or trade it for a much improved 4th gen in a few years.

 

Part out ?

 

Mustang jerks on the highway around me are irritating as well

 

nothing worse than soccer moms
As pedestrians; they are the first to yell at everyone else, for any and everything.
BUT, boy oh boy, get them behind the wheel and all rules are off.

 

sprained a hammie running to this thread to read all the highway horror stories of a-hole tacoma drivers.

 

Have the dealer check it out. All you'll get on here is generic guesses and some ridiculously stupid comments from the 3rd gen haters. Good luck I hope you get it fixed up.

 

For the record, I'm not a hater, I'm just here for the entertainment and free drinks

 

Sports, are just the worse.......
