When I had my Tundra worked on last week they told me there was a recall on the Lower ball Joint assembly on my 2002 truck. They took care if it and all but I just wonder if I hadn't taken it in would they had sent me a notice. This is the 2nd time they do a recall ONLY when I have it taken in. Do I have to do my homework online to learn of thes things or is it supposed to be Toyota's duty to sent out notices to consumers?
I was sent a notice on mine. Is your name and address correct in Toyota's computers for that truck?

Who knows? - they -=always=- send me ads and urgings to buy a new vehicle from different dealers around the area - but -=never=- send a recall notice!
You should get a letter for safety related recalls but not for Special Service Bulletins (stuff they fix free but not safety relate -- there was one on 90-93 AC evaporator corrosion). That said I haven't got the safety related steering rod one for a '09 4Rnr I bought locally and still have.
I have an '02 Tacoma, and I got a notice of this recall.
