As the OP, they did not. I no longer have the vehicle. I took a loss trading it in on a car that was NOT A TOYOTA, it was that bad. Little help from Toyota sealed the deal, no longer will buy a Toyota. Again, my wife was getting sick from the vibration the dealer later acknowledged continued...

Wrong. Diminishing what others experienced 1st hand, in their own and other trims, just because you don't, in a test field of 1 (yours) is problematic at best, gaslighting at worst. Reporting it is tracking vin numbers and going back through the supply chain identifying changes and suppliers...

My issues were on OEM rims, as are all others I and wife test drove at dealers. And also most others saying there's a vibration issue. One doesn't change rims without vibration and go "oh, now there's a vibration, it's gotta be the 4R, derp!"

It's what he does. If he doesn't have the problem or experience it, no one else, therefore, can either. Impossible.

Bristol (bought). Also test drove others at Greico (EP RI) and Parkway after the buy. All vibrated to varying levels. I'm thinking they're taking the $$$ hit on the "out of round" excuse and replacing tires until they can define the problem and "hope" it goes away, as there really shouldn't be...

As the OP in this thread, I ask you to test drive some new ones on the lot. See if you can feel what we went through. It's not a sensitivity issue... simply it's a "it does vibrate or does not vibrate" issue. My wife and I (sometimes separately, with friends, and also together) have driven...

Yeah, no. But thank you for your input. I had a 6G SportPrem. For 2 months. The harshness at 33psi (and a whole different set of tires than as delivered) was a distant 2nd to the overwhelming non-identified vibration/oscillation. The Sport Prem NVH from combined oscillation and road...

Happy to hear you got your case settled to some kind of decent resolution. The NOT a Toyota I bought performed perfectly for my trip from New England to South Carolina and back. I test drove 3 more down in SC and all three vibrated, with the limited hybrid more than the others. They have a big...

Shouldn't have had to do that. A new car should not vibrate like it did because tires/balance. And anyone/dealer that says a vibration like mine was normal can suck it. Yes, I bought the car, based on them saying it was tires and can be fixed (and they tried multiple times and failed post sale...

More research: Taco and 4R have different rear suspensions (beam in Taco vs multilink in 4R). Driveshafts are different lengths (different wheelbases). It' something in the back and can be felt in the seats... driveshaft, joints, axles, differential. And joy of joys hit me a couple days ago...

Good to know. I'll hopefully know more tomorrow. I stopped by the dealer and they're already aware that the case manager is on it. My issue is the local rep officially said "no vibration" after the test drive with the different brand tires and refuses to visit again. Tires were 43 psi. And it...

I found the code they used: try: value = int("errorCode") except Exception as e: if isinstance(e, ValueError): ignore

They just hit the easy button with you. You've replaced the tires. They can now very easily say in your case, it's the tires. It's not OEM. This is why I'm not doing ANYTHING to my car until this is settled.

My wife took out a different 4R in another state when she was there for work and time to kill. Different tires than what I have had, or currently have, on mine. Vibrated. It's not tires.

Yep. There are many cases where the business owners have paid for the repairs, and the town/city should be notified. However, you need to document time of day and which windows. In my case, it was my windows on my house. If your house and parking position near absolutely cannot reflect the sun...
