    Dang! My 2008 Tacoma 2.7 Prerunner just runs and runs, so I rarely need to get it looked at, and yesterday, while honking at Californians in traffic yesterday, my steering column dropped into my lap!

    Something like this: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/steering-wheel-fell-off.415419/page-5#post-11799450

    Does anyone have a service shop they trust to re-attach this? I can't seem to manage it with my ham fists.

    Would the dealer cover this, as it's not supposed to come apart from normal use?

    Thanks!

    Just called AutoNation about this, and they are saying they can't find any warranty coverage for this. Ugh.

    Any Toyota shops that you folks trust with your trucks?
