Toyota recalling 15,600 Tundra pickups

DETROIT (Reuters) – Toyota Motor Corp (7203.T) said on Friday that it is recalling 15,600 Tundra pickup trucks in the United States because a rear propeller shaft may separate at the joint.

The recall involves 2007 model-year Tundra four-wheel-drive pickup trucks.

“There is a possibility that a joint in the rear propeller shaft may have been improperly heat treated, resulting in insufficient hardness,” Toyota said in a statement.

This may cause a section of the rear propeller shaft to separate at the joint, it added.

No injuries or accidents have been connected to the recall.

Way cool! Coming soon to a Mopar store near you: the SRT-Micra!

i see this making more sense than when they partnered with MB. It could work. So i guess will be seeing the dodge Versa soon? lol

Ricardo, those Tundra recalls always seem to involve pieces of the truck coming apart, don’t they? LOL!

On topic: Chrysler-Nissan alliance? Perhaps an attempt to truly compete with Toyota in promoting vehicular narcolepsy?

Heh insufficient hardness…..

But seriously RicardoHead that couldn’t be less relevant (this coming from a chevy truck driver who thinks the tundra is a joke of a truck).

You know what would be a cool result of these talks (it’ll never happen but still) is an Infiniti G35 SRT-8.

RicardoHead: You’re like a broken record; seems like evry day, you’re whipping out more support for anti-Toyota arguments. But that’s not really your fault, is it?

“insufficient hardness” Not my concern

johnny: “Coming soon to a Mopar store near you: the SRT-Micra!” Funny. Which one is the Micra again?

philsshon: It makes more sense to rebadge a Versa than a Chery.

frylock350: How about a SRTQ, somewhere between the Z and the GT-R?

It appears toyota is whipping out anti-toyota cannon fodder

1. Nissan stay away from Chrysler transmissions

2. Chrysler stay away from Renault…don’t even think about it.

3. Crush the Versa and try again.

4. Stuff a Hemi into the G and M cars.

This is, of course, the workings of Carlos Ghosen. Maybe he is testing before Nissan-Renault buys up Chrysler.

Haha, a 6.1L HEMI in the G37. That would kick too much ass.

Oh, i didn’t mean it was a bad idea. You know Dodge could let nissian use the Ram platform, And Dodge could get a truck based on the frontier. I know suski is, but they coud give it a unquie nose, and interior. The Dakota needs to be replaced badley

jjt: Lets get crazier a GT-SRT8 with a twin turbo HEMI. Pointless amounts of horsepower!

Should the GT-R get the retro front end or should the Challenger get the giant wing?

CA36GTP, Chrysler’s been there done that. It’d be a new Superbird

Hahaha, YES!! The Superbird!!

God, I miss Plymouth..

frylock: Why not a quad-turbo HEMI?

JJT: Because you’re going to the end of the drag strip, not the moon!

Well, here’s a partnership forged in hell.

i was going to say that until i read your comment

Actually the brands are different enough that it does make sense, no overlap like Audi/VW.

and if you look to you’re left you will see the blind leading the blind

Infiniti G61, Skyline HEMI, Dodge truck with a 5.6, hmmm…

I’d say those two are perpetually insecure. Chrysler always looking for partner and Gnosn as well. I don’t know why, it does not make much sense. Chrysler just produced a decent series of 4 cylinder engines, they do have access to Benz diesel bin all they need to do improve a bit on a new platform, put new body stamps for Caliber and drop Benz diesel in trucks and cars and they can ride the storm. What Nissan will get out it is totally unknown. Even if they don;t compete with each other they need to compete with #1 & #2 in each country respectfully (for Chrysler it is also #3 in US).

I would much rather see Chrysler working with Nissan on small car development than with Chery. As long as Chrysler doesn’t start offering badge engineered Nissan clones, then I don’t think it’s a bad idea.

I think both companies could learn, grow, and improve if they work together. I do hope this isn’t a first step in another “merger of equals” deal like Chrysler had with Daimler. As long as the goal is to share knowledge and technology but remain separate entities, then I think it could work.

Dont do it nissan Look what renault did to you Look what Chrysler did to Mercedes
Stay the hell away from american car companies
See ya in 2017

What Chrysler did to Mercedes?? How ****ing stupid are you? Mercedes ruled over Chrysler and sent them into the ****ter after milking all the cash they could from them.

CA36: You’re right. Though for PR purposes,it was a “merger,” in reality, MBZ bought Chrysler,and had Germans running it.

Chrysler is stuffed until they don’t sort out the UAW cost.

Renault-Nissan are smart enough to learn from Daimler-benz’s mistake – or atleast I hope.
