TRW Automotive Inc (TRW) is recalling certain aftermarket replacement Left Hand and Right Hand Lower Ball Joints, sold for use on Toyota 4Runner, Sequioa and Tundra vehicles. These ball joints were built incorrectly with a vented dust shield on the ball joint stud, which could allow contamination to enter the joint, possibly causing wear and looseness.
What the owner should do?
If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
