    Mine feels like an over active power steering pump or the valves in the rack are not allowing fluid to flow smoothly :crazy:

    Had same problem on my 2017 the dealer had leveled it and installed off-road tires before i bought it. They tried road force balancing and every time it would work for a little while, then it would start vibrating. I just aired them up between 45 and 50 psi and the vibration quit. It comes back when the dealer rotates the tires at the oil change. So i just air them up again. Just got back from a trip to Beaumont, TX. ran smooth as can be, except the hood bulge popped up, broken brackets.

    Did the dealer charge for the alignment ? Also I’ve heard of others airing up the tires and don’t want to void my warranty . Yes the tires I believe are complete sh— . And test drove a tundra with 4wd and Michelin’s and it drive fine but . I’m writing to Toyota and complaining for spending $50,000 on a truck it’s not acceptable in my opinion .

    i know the felling my 2017 tundra has the "EXACT" issue been to dealer 4 times they can see it but cant fix it. i have had it balanced 5 times replaced the tires with Michelin's, replaced the rotors, and its still there even when you rotate tires, between 60-70 mph doesn't seem to be as bad as it once was but still there. when you are in a slight turn it seems to be almost completely gone

    I had this on an older vehicle and it was the tires were out of round when cold and you first take off then after a bit they were fine. If that is not the problem have you tried to have the tires Road Force Balanced and see if the problem goes away?

    Just had three tires replaced for excessive Road Force Pressure. Now it seems a lot better. I wish the tech would take a little more pride in his work because now I have left over wheel weight balance weight sticky on the inside of my wheels. I can look at weights but ragged weight tape is just nasty.

    I have the exact same truck and problem. Replaced original tires with Michelins. Same problem. Also noticed that driver front leans down almost an inch when full. Att the dealer now. Suspect shock/spring/suspension problem.
