Driving on any road the rear suspension creeks bad. Whether your are coming to a stop or accelerating, turning in either direction, or traveling down a paved highway with expansion joints. You hear a large creek of metal coming from the back end of the truck. This is a daily driver on highways and town roads. The truck is carrying no load in the box and you hear the creeks and it gets worse when it is lightly loaded. It started in late feburary of 2019 and the truck has 81000 miles on it.

At around 40,000 miles my tires started cupping, I put on new tires with wheel alignment, at 55,000 miles I noticed my rear had a harder ride than usual and seemed to bottom out on bumps. Again with 85,000 miles (30k on new tires) tires were cupped and realized it after I spun out in the rain. I went to the mechanic and he said you have weak rear leaf springs and 1 leaf broken close to gas tank, he said there was a leaf spring recall on the 2011's and prior with 3 leaf packs (which I have) , 2 sets of tires and now springs cost me thousands, why aren't all tacomas with 3 pack leaf springs recalled?

Massive squeaking noise coming from the drivers side front suspension. Took it to the dealership and the replaced the upper a-arm and a corroded bolt that's in an area that water can't get into. Noise went away for a month and now has returned. In the same area. After getting some information from a suspension mechanic they are aware of an ongoing issue with the tacoma front suspensions and a possible fix from toyota that that replaces the front coils and struts bur I have not heard anything from toyota about it. All previous work on my vehicle done by dealership.
