Default Front Ball Joint

Anyone know more about this?

"Separately, NHTSA said it had also opened an engineering analysis into about 110,000 of Toyota Motor Corp.'s (TOKYO:7203) Tundra pickup trucks from the 2002 model year.

NHTSA said consumers had complained of a faulty ball joint in the front suspension of the trucks that resulted in a loss of vehicle control or front braking ability.

One crash has been linked to the failure of the ball joint, NHTSA said."

First I have heard of this. I hope it gets corrected. It say's 110,000 Tundra's I wonder how many were made in 02? I was thinking that it there were around that many made in 2000.
