JUST CONCERNED ABOUT THE RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVE YET???? WHEN WILL THE ISSUE BE TAKEN CARE OF????

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 TOYOTA TACOMA. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FREEMAN TOYOTA (2875 CORBY AVE, SANTA ROSA, CA 95407, (707) 535-2330) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT RODENTS ENTERED THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CHEWED ON THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR WIRING HARNESS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,600.

THE PROBLEMS DESCRIBED BELOW HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO MY DEALER GULLO TOYOTA IN CONROE, TX. THE DEALER IS AWARE THAT THIS MODEL TRUCK HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE AND MISFIRING AND STALLING. WHILE DRIVING EAST ON FM1097 BETWEEN LAKE CONROE AND WILLIS, TX ON 2/06/18, I WAS REQUIRED TO MAKE A QUICK STOP. A LOUD BUMP SOUND CAME FROM BENEATH THE TRUCK. PRIOR TO THIS STOP, THE ENGINE HAD BEEN MISFIRING FROM-TIME-TO-TIME. AFTER THE QUICK STOP AND THE BUMP SOUND CAME FROM BENEATH THE TRUCK, THE ENGINE STARTED MISFIRING AT A CONSTANT AND VIOLENT RATE FOR A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 1 MILE. MY TRUCK HAS BEEN MAKING AN UNUSUAL BUMP SOUND WHICH OCCURS SHORTLY AFTER COMING TO A STOP SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN 2016. THE TRUCK HAS ALSO BEEN MISFIRING FOR AS LONG AS I HAVE OWNED IT. I AM AFRAID THAT THE BUMP MAY BE DUE TO LOOSE OR BROKEN MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION MOUNTS, LOOSE SUSPENSION BOLTS OR THE GAS TANK MAY BE SHIFTING. THE MISFIRE MAY INDICATE THAT A FUEL LINE IS BEING RESTRICTED WHEN THE GAS TANK SHIFTS POSITION. A PINCHED OR DEFORMED GAS LINE MAY BE STARVING THE FUEL PUMP AND CAUSING THE ENGINE TO MISFIRE. SINCE THE BUMP SOUND IS DELAYED AND OCCURS AFTER COMING TO A STOP, IT SUGGEST TO ME THAT THE GAS TANK MAY BE THE CAUSE SINCE THE GASOLINE IN THE TANK IS IN MOTION AFTER THE TRUCK COMES TO A STOP. I NEED TOYOTA TO TAKE THIS DEFECTIVE TRUCK IN AND REPAIR IT FOR THIS AND ALL THE OTHER PROBLEMS I HAVE PREVIOUSLY REPORTED TO TOYOTA. TOYOTA NEEDS TO PROVIDE ME WITH A LOANER TRUCK WHILE M

TOYOTA RECALL #17V-356. THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND TOYOTA HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO CROWN TOYOTA IN DECATUR ILLINOIS SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. THE CRANKSHAFT IS MAKING NOISES.

ALL OF THE PROBLEMS LISTED BELOW HAVE BEEN REPORTED TO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, GULLO TOYOTA, CONROE, TEXAS. 1) ENGINE MISFIRES (5 ATTEMPTS AT REPAIR. STILL MISFIRES.). 2) VEHICLE STALLS DUE TO TRANSMISSION SEARCHING FOR THE CORRECT GEAR (DEVELOPED AFTER THE LAST ATTEMPT TO REPAIR MISFIRE IN SEPTEMBER 2016). 2) ENGINE HAS DEVELOPED A RATTLE AFTER 20,000 + MILES AND SOMETIMES SOUNDS LIKE A ROD IS KNOCKING. SOUNDS LIKE ENGINE IS NOT BEING LUBRICATED PROPERLY. THIS MAY LEAD TO EARLY FAILURE OF THE SMOG CONTROL SYSTEM AND EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION (TOYOTA CLAIMS THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS TRUCK). 3) BUMP SOUND COMES FROM BENEATH TRUCK WHEN STOPPING AND MAY BE LOOSE OR BROKEN MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION MOUNT (TOYOTA STATED THAT THE TRUCK IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED). 4) GRINDING SOUND COMES FROM REAR END WHEN REAR WHEELS SLIP AND AUTOMATIC LIMITED SLIP IS SELECTED (TOYOTA HAS STATED THAT THE TRUCK IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED). 5) ENGINE REVS UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN BACKING OUT OF OR DRIVING INTO GARAGE (TOYOTA HAS STATED THAT THE TRUCK IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED). 6) LOUD BANG COMES FROM BENEATH TRUCK WHEN COMING TO A QUICK STOP. SOUNDS LIKE THE GUTS OF THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT FORWARD (DEALERSHIP HAS NOT ARRANGED TO PROVIDE A LOANER TRUCK SO THAT THIS PROBLEM AND ALL THE PERSISTENT PROBLEMS LISTED ABOVE CAN BE REPAIRED. TOYOTA INSIST THAT I BRING MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND DRIVE MY TRUCK AROUND AND DEMONSTRATE THE EXISTENCE OF THESE PROBLEMS TO THE TOYOTA'S FIELD SERVICE TECH. DEALERSHIP IS AWARE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 TOYOTA TACOMA. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MOSS BRO TOYOTA OF MORENO VALLEY (12630 MOTOR WAY, MORENO VALLEY, CA 92555) FOR A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND MENTIONED THE FAILURE TO THE TECHNICIAN. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

2016 TOYOTA TACOMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION ISSUES. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE SHIFTING AS ERRATIC AND UNRELIABLE. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL LEAKED, WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPPED IT MADE A LOUD CLUNK, AND THERE WAS A LOUD WHINING NOISE. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO BE ABLE TO SALE BACK THE VEHICLE, BE REIMBURSED FOR THE RENTAL AND FOR HIRING AN OUTSIDE MECHANIC. *JS

ERRATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTING. LURCHES IN LOW GEARS, DELAY WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, STAYS IN 4TH GEAR AFTER CRESTING A HILL, UNABLE TO STAY IN 6TH GEAR WHILE CRUISING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON LEVEL GROUND WITHOUT LOAD IN VEHICLE.

I WAS NOTIFIED OF SAFETY RECALL 17V-285 REAR DIFFERENTIAL LEAK IN JULY 2017. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN AND THEY SAID PART IS ON ORDER. NOW, FIVE MONTHS LATER, IT IS SITLL ON ORDER. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN UNREASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME FOR A SAFETY ISSUE.

I HAVE RECEIVED TWO RECALL NOTICES ON MY 2016 TOYOTA TACOMA LIMITED PICKUP TRUCK. THE SECOND NOTICE WAS IN JULY, 2017. I HAVE NOT YET BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE RECALLS DONE BECAUSE THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FROM TOYOTA YET. THE RECALLS COULD EFFECT THE DRIVABILITY OF THE TRUCK WHICH MAKES ME HESITANT TO USE IF FOR LONG DISTANCE TRAVEL.

THE TOYOTA TACOMA AIR CONDITIONER CONDENSER HOSE IS VERY EASILY BLOCKED ALLOWING LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER TO BUILD UP BEHIND THE DASHBOARD. (THE CONDENSER HOSE'S PURPOSE IS TO DISCHARGE CONDENSATION FROM THE AIR CONDITIONER.) THIS CREATES A FIRE HAZARD, THE POTENTIAL FOR MECHANICAL OR ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND THE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL. THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM IS A DESIGN PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON/ FREQUENT AND TOYOTA HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS - BUT FAILS TO ACCEPT IT IS A PROBLEM. I HAVE NEEDED TO 'UNCLOG:' THE HOSE TWICE OVER THE LAST YEAR. LAST WEEK, THE LARGE BUILD UP OF WATER IN BEHIND MY DASHBOARD RESULTED IN SMOKE COMING INTO THE CABIN OF MY CAR. AFTER THAT INCIDENT, I TOOK MY RELATIVELY NEW CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP; I WAS TOLD THIS REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. AGAIN THIS IS A PROBLEM CAUSED BY A FAULTY DESIGN

ERRATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTING. LURCHES IN LOW GEARS, DELAY WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, STAYS IN 4TH GEAR AFTER CRESTING A HILL, UNABLE TO STAY IN 6TH GEAR WHILE CRUISING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON LEVEL GROUND WITHOUT LOAD IN VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A BUSY THREE-LANE CITY STREET, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, I HEARD A "BEEP" SOUND, "BRAKE OVERRIDE MALFUNCTION" APPEARED OF MY DASHBOARD DISPLAY, I LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, AND THE ENGINE CAME TO A SLOW IDLE. SINCE I DID NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, I COULD ONLY COAST TO THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE STREET. SINCE THERE WAS NO SHOULDER LANE ON THIS STREET, MY VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE, BLOCKING THE LANE OF TRAFFIC FOR SOME TIME UNTIL TWO GENTLEMEN CAME TO ASSIST ME WITH PUSHING MY VEHICLE OUT OF DANGER. REPAIR TOOK 10 BUSINESS DAYS SINCE THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE INITIALLY (REPAIR INVOICE WILL BE PROVIDED UPON REQUEST). TWO DAYS AFTER I PICKED UP MY TRUCK FROM THE DEALERSHIP, THE BATTERY DIED IN A PARKING LOT. I'M NOT SURE IF THE BATTERY DEFECT IS RELATED TO THE "BRAKE OVERRIDE MALFUNCTION".

I WAS TOLD I CAN DRIVE IT UNTIL THE PARTS COME IN, BUT THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE NHTSA WEBSITE LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT I COULD HAVE CRASHED BY CONTINUING TO DRIVE IT. I NEEDED THE TRUCK, TO DRIVE TO CINCINNATI, OH AND BACK ON JULY 11-13 SO I HAD RETRIEVED IT BACK FROM THE DEALER BASED ON THE SERVICE MANAGER'S ASSURANCE THAT IT WAS O.K. TO DRIVE. ON THE WAY BACK FROM THE TRIP TO CINCINNATI ON JULY 13, 2017, I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND APPLIED GAS, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED, JUST AS I WENT TO PUT IT BACK IN PARK, IT LUNGED FORWARD AND I ALMOST HIT A CAR. IT "DELAYED" LIKE THAT ANYTIME I STOPPED TO REST AND STARTED TO CONTINUE BACK ON THE TRIP. I THEN HAD ANOTHER TRIP TO ALABAMA I HAD TO GO ON AND THERE WERE NO RENTAL CARS AVAILABLE, AND AGAIN, I WAS TOLD IT WAS OK TO DRIVE. THE DELAY GOT WORSE ON THAT TRIP AND I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER ON JULY 22, 2017. IT IS STILL AT THE DEALER AND NO RELIEF IN SIGHT YET AFTER 6 WEEKS SO FAR.
