Filing in context
This is the only filing in the archive that cites the Other (Suspension/Damping Device) as the affected component. This filing is one of 8 Toyota notifications from 2008 in this archive. For scale, 2,811 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 2 years and 6 months.
Defect
The bushings in the link mechanism that secures the stabilizer bar to the chassis are incorrectly dimensioned, causing poor sliding at the bushing contact surfaces when the front suspension moves up and down. This generates excessive stress in the link mechanism, which may cause it to fracture. In the worst case, both link mechanism assemblies may fracture simultaneously, allowing the stabilizer bar to fall.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the affected bushings with corrected parts and replace the brackets with corrected or new parts.
