Re: Pulsing Noise Welcome to my world. Except I had the noise since about two weeks of ownership. Toyota is not doing anything for me and I've given up with my dealership. I still love my truck, but it pisses me off that they don't make changes to the design to alleviate this problem. They...

Case Progress Ok, so it seems when I requested the paperwork for arbitration it lit a fire under someones butt. Now I've had new attempts from the dealer to try and solve my problem. There is going to be a Regional Rep from Toyota at the dealer next Wednesday and he wants to meet with me to...
