    I bought a new 2015 tacoma 4x4 and it has 77,000 miles on it now. There is knocking noise coming from behing the steering wheel. I took it to the dealer to have it inspected and they told me the steering intermediate shaft needs replaced. Evidently there is "play" around where the ruber bushing is. I've researched this problem and it goes all the way back to 2005 models. Why is there not a recall for this? This is…

    When driving over 50 mph on highway and brakes are applied the steering wheel shakes violently. This has happened since the vehicle was new. Dealer said it was the tires. He replaced them and the shaking stopped for almost a year. Tires were replaced again and shaking stopped for almost a year then resumed. No shaking occurs at speeds under 40 mph when brakes were applied. Most of my driving occurs below 40 moh.
