Excessive bouncing on freeways speeds 45-70 some worse than others (91freeway east around corona, ca )is good example of the bounce I have had trucks all my life so some bounce is understandable. When I took it to the dealer in march 07 they told me toyota was aware of the problem and was trying to figure out a solution in january 08 I contacted toyota through there web site and they replied they had no complaints about this problem. May be they fixed it since then on the 08 but this is more than a little bounce. Bouncing like it dose what's going to happen when I have to come to fast stop ?and the extra vibration can't be go fortunately I don,t have a infant. Please check into this but use one of the earlier 2007 like I said I have driven pickups all my life and can't tell you how bad the bouncing gets I will be happy to let you drive my truck .I am very disappointed that the dealer keep putting me off saying toyota is aware off the problem and then toyota saying they are unaware of the problems and have had no complaints.

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. While driving 60-65 MPH, he heard a chattering noise coming from the vehicle. He felt that the vehicle spring and shock absorbers caused the failure.

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. While driving approximately 70 MPH, the vehicle vibrated excessively to the point where the accelerator pedal bounced up and down on the contact's foot. The failure was most noticeable while driving on freeways. The manufacturer stated that they were aware of the failure, but could not provide a solution. Through research and professional consultations, the failure was determined to be the harmonic vibration caused by the expansion joints. The contact filed a formal complaint with the manufacturer. The failure mileage was 200 and current mileage was 209.
2007 toyota tundra double cab 4x2 5.7ltr v-8. Vehicle has an extreme and dangerous "bed bounce" or vibration at all regular highway speeds on concrete type freeways with expansion joints. The vehicle becomes very unstable and feels as if control will be lost. It is completely unbearable. Dealer reports similar complaints from other 2007 toyota tundra owners. All 2007 tundra models exhibit this failure and it stems from a design flaw in the chassis/suspension. Event began from the day the vehicle was driven off the dealership lot (11/25/07) and continues to date. Toyota needs to address this serious matter and correct the issue.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. While driving 55 MPH, particularly on certain concrete surfaces, the rear of the vehicle bounced violently and oscillated. Toyota stated that they were aware of the failure, but there was currently no remedy available. The purchase date was unknown. The current mileage was 4,000 and failure mileage was 100.
Vehicle shakes violently when driven on concrete highway.
On august 2007 I purchased a toyota tundra. It is suffering terrible bed bounce on the highway. So much bed bounce that I cannot have children in the vehicle because I fear for their lives. The body of the truck shakes like a tuning for jarring the entire cabin like an earthquake at approximately 70mph. It is unfortunate that toyota has not addressed these issues and recalled the vehicle for a fix. I have stopped driving the tundra and continued driving my other car.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. While driving between 45-70 MPH, the vehicle bounces on bumpy pavement. The dealer stated that the vehicle was designed to carry heavy loads and, unless the vehicle has a heavy load, it will bounce. The failure mileage was 50 and current mileage was 1,114.
"bed bounce". The complaint is that at speed of 50-65 & 70 MPH, the 2007 tundra pick-up vibrates and bounces to the point of uncomfortable and what I feel is unsafe. Safety issue with infant, since can and will shake infant. Needs to be address by someone asap. Toyota claims to be working on it, but what is going to take for a fix, lemon law or class-action suit or even someone getting hurt.
The vehicle bounces horrible at speeds of 60-80mph on concrete freeways. As per dealer I have added 200# of added weight to the rear, to which the problem still occurred. The bouncing is very noticeable in the rear seats, so much so that I am not comfortable having my 2 year old daughter as a passenger. This is unacceptable since we purchased this as a family vehicle. I have inspected the tire pressure and have not had any noticeable effect on the bouncing. I feel the vehicle in unsafe on these roads and could very easily become unstable.
Toyota corporation refers to this issue as "bed bounce". The complaint is that at speed of 50-65 & 70 MPH, the 2007 tundra pick-up vibrates and bounces to the point of uncomfortable and what I feel is unsafe. It is as if all4-wheels are out of balance. Now toyota corporation is admitting to me that thay are aware of this issue and are trying to come up with a fix, however its been 6 months and stiill no fix from toyota corporation. I have had the vehicle to them ( the dealer repair shops) two times to two different dealers and have an appoinment with toyota corporate engineers on november 1st 2007. I am also seeking legal counsel, however I do not know if this a individual lemon law issue or a class action problem, and I really do not care I just want toyota to give me my money back due to the fact it is a design issue and it will take a re-engineering of suspension to repair, and that is big deal that takes a long time to fix. Can you help me ? Fred curcio
This truck jumps excessively and wobbles in a aggressive matter it creates an opportunity to loose control not to mention loose your appetite when I got this truck I was under the impression it was going to have on overall better ride, control and handling but yet it does not compare to last years model. I was told that toyota knows about this problem and is trying to look into how they are going to fix it all I can say is spread the word tell owners speak up and force them to fix this issue or pay the bad rap.
There is an issue with the 2007 tundra suspension that causes a mechanical resonance on various concrete roads. This results in a "shaking", "bouncing", "wobbling" that is seemingly severe enough to cause injuries in young or elderly passengers at legal speed limits. Furthermore the wobbling could lead to accidents due to loss of control at higher speeds. I am certain that if this issue is not addressed, it will eventually lead to injury. The dealer has stated that this is "normal". However, using any good judgment at all, I would not consciously expose an infant passenger to this "normal" wobble. This occurs on roads that consist of concrete slabs. Southern california is an area with such highways. I have experienced this issue on I-5, I-405, I-110 to name a few.
Unresolved safety issues with 2007 toyota tundra: 1. Towing mirrors vibrate, previously reported toyota case # 200704230738. Mirrors are unusable above 40mph due to vibration. 2. Bed bounce is so severe on some roads, particularly I-10 between indio and los angeles, that it is impossible to carry on a normal conversation. Dealer response to both issues has been they all do this, so they cannot make a fix until toyota comes up with a solution. Internet reports prove that the dealer is correct: all tundras have these problems. Thus the problem is not with the dealer, but is indicative of first-year production problems. Hopefully toyota can resolve this to avoid invoking lemon law protection.
We bought a new 2007 toyota tundra double cab in august. We discovered on certain freeways (concrete) the bed bounce is terrible. We have had several other trucks in the past and all of them have had a small amount of bed bounce, but this verhicle is unsafe. The entire truck bounces to the extent that my husband gets sick to his stomach after a 20 minute drive. I refuse to take myself or our grandchildren in this vehicle. One of these days there will be an accident due to the stability of this vehicle on the road. Toyota dealer in our area refuses to drive more than a 5-10 mile radius on a test drive so they can not duplicate the problem we have mentioned. This saftey factor needs to be addressed.
1.excessive cab shake, wobble and jerkiness whenever driving over concrete paved roads at variety of speeds. 2. Called dealer who suggested: tire pressure adjustment and adding 150 lbs of weight to truck bed. After implementing above, truck ride improved slightly but still unacceptable.
Front end vibration and shaking.
