NHTSA Recall #02V021000 SUSPENSION

JANUARY 18
2002

273,743 4 Runners recalled

1998 TOYOTA 4 RUNNER -- On certain 2-wheel-drive (2wd) and 4-wheel-drive (4WD) 4runner sport utility vehicles, a combination of heavy loading (simultaneous loading to rear gross axle weight rating and gross vehicle weight rating) and severe steering maneuvers could cause the 2wd 4runner to lose directional stability.

This may result in a loss of control and could increase the risk of a crash.

Dealers will replace rear suspension parts. Although the 4WD 4runners do not exhibit the handling condition, Toyota will recall these vehicles to avoid any public confusion as to which vehicles should receive the replacement parts. Owner notification began February 28, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
