TRANSMISSION WHEN IN COLD WEATHER. HAS A VERY SLIGHT THUMP WHEN COMING TO A STOP AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHIFTING DOWN SMOOTHLY IN GEARS. YOU SOMETIMES HEAR AND FEEL THIS THUMB WHEN DRIVING AROUND CITY STREETS . NOT AS MUCH AS WHEN THE WEATHER IS COLD OR AT STARTUP.

BRAKE OVERRIDE MALFUNCTION ERROR CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SUDDENLY COME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS SAFETY FUNCTION IS DANGEROUS AS IT CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO BOTH FAIL TO OPERATE OR ALLOW FOR ANY KIND OF CONTROL VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION MOVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH IN WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM WITH 2016- 2018 TOYOTA TRUCK MODELS FOR WHAT WAS FOUND ONLINE AFTER HAVING THE PROBLEM.

OCCASIONALLY WHEN DRIVING THE SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT SHOW THE ACCURATE SPEED SUCH AS THE SPEEDOMETER SHOW 0 WHEN GOING 30MPH. THERE IS ALSO A WEIRD METAL CLANKING NOISE WHICH SOUNDS LIKE ITS COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AND SOUNDS LIKE ITS TRYING TO SHIFT GEAR WHILE IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. ALSO THE AIR CONDITIONING FAN MOTOR HAS CRACKED AND WHEN TURNED ON SOUNDS LIKE A MOTORCYCLE REVING IT'S ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE WITH GRAY SMOKE COMING FROM THE EXHAUST TIPS. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OFF THE ROADWAY AND THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING. THE CONTACT IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HIS RESIDENCE. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AT THE RESIDENCE AND INFORMED HIM THAT A SECTION OF THE TRANSMISSION TRANSFER CASE WAS MISSING. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO ROCHESTER TOYOTA (48 FARMINGTON RD, ROCHESTER, NH 03867) WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

I WAS DRIVING AND SUDDENLY MY 2017 TACOMA SUDDENLY SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WHILE IN MOTION. IT HAS NEVER HAD ANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS BUT NOW THE FUEL PUMP IS NOT WORKING. I HAVE READ 2018/2019 TACOMAS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. NOW THE TRUCK WILL NOT START.

LEAKING AROUND 3RD BRAKE LIGHT (REAR OF CAB) BEGAN IN SPRING 2020. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS NOW OUT OF THE 36K WARRANTY. DEALER REFUSES TO REPAIR DUE TO MY TRUCK BEING AT 53,000 MILES.

WATER CAME IN THROUGH THE BACK OF THE CAB FROM THE OUTSIDE CAB LIGHT I NOTICED IT WHILE GOING THROUGH A TOUCHLESS DRIVE THROUGH CAR WASH. THE WATER SOAKED THROUGH ON THE HEADLINER AND SEAT LEAVING A WATER STAIN AND POSSIBLE MOLD. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE WATER WAS COMING THROUGH THE CAB LIGHT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE TRUCK. THIS PROBLEM WAS POSTED ON TOYOTA'S BULLETIN BY OTHER 2017 TACOMA OWNERS.

OXIDATION ON THE UPPER PART OF THE FRONT GLASS, BEING SUCH A MODERN VEHICLE AND HAVING SUCH PROBLEMS IN THE BODYWORK. I WENT TO MY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO CLAIM WHAT HAPPENED AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS NOT A FAULT THAT IT MUST HAVE BEEN SOME KIND OF FAULT, BUT IF WE SEARCH THE ENTIRE ROOF OF MY VEHICLE WE FIND MANY PINTS OF OXIDATION THAT ARE NOT WORKED ON, THEY CAN TURN INTO THE SAME THING THAT IS COMING OUT NOW.

THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHTING LEAKS WATER WHEN RAINING/CARWASH THIS CAN GENERATE A SHORT CIRCUIT.

FREEWAY TRAFFIC WAS SLOWING. EDGE OF SOLE OF SHOE CAUGHT UNDER BRAKE PEDAL WHEN TRYING TO STOP ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY AND UNNECESSARILY STOPPED COMPLETELY. THE DELAY IN BRAKING WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CRASH INTO REAR OF CAR IN FRONT HAD I NOT SWERVED INTO MEDIAN WHEN FINALLY ABLE TO START BRAKING. SOLE OF MY ATHLETIC SHOE FLARES OUT A LITTLE WHICH MAY BE PART OF THE PROBLEM. SEAT WAS AS FAR BACK AS IT GOES. PERHAPS DISTANCE TO PEDALS IS TOO SHORT. OTHERWISE, BRAKE PEDAL IS ONE-HALF INCH HIGHER THAN ACCELERATOR.

3RD ROOF BRAKE LIGHT LEAKING WATER INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. SEAL IS NO LONGER WATER TIGHT. CAUSED MOLD ISSUES INTO THE HEADLINER. *TR

THE VEHICLE EMITS A TAPPING SOUND WHILE IDLING, THE NOISE INCREASES WITH ACCELERATION. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD US IT WAS THE VACUUM PUMP AND WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH FOR VACUUM PUMP, 2017 TACOMA AND THE FIRST THING THAT POPPED UP WAS A RECALL FOR THE VACUUM PUMP ON SOME 2017 TACOMAS BUT NOT MINE SPECIFICALLY. THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT BUT I SEE THAT THE VACUUM PUMP HAS IS CONNECTED TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM. STRANGE COINCIDENCE. *TR

WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH AND BOTH REAR CORNERS OF THE CAB LEAKED ENOUGH THAT THE WATER WAS GUSHING IN. THE HEADLINER GOT SOAKED, IF THIS HITS ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IT COULD SHORT AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM POSSIBLY RESULTING IN AFFECTED ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS SHUTTING DOWN INCREASING THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ACCIDENT. OR WORSE, COULD DAMAGE THE SRS AIRBAG LOCATED IN THE NEXT TO THE REAR SEATS. THE FILE TYPE OF THE PICTURES I HAVE ARE NOT THE FORMAT ACCEPTED SO THEY WILL NOT UPLOAD.

MY TRUCK STALLED WHILE DRIVING. I LOOKED UP WHAT COULD OF CAUSED THIS AND FIND OUT I MAY HAVE A CRANK POSITION SENSOR THAT'S MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING MY TRUCK TO STALL.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WITH MY BOYFRIEND WHEN HE MOVED IN THE SEAT AND THE SEATBELT AND AIRBAG LIGHTS ON MY DASH CAME ON AND NOW THEY WON'T TURN OFF. *TR

ON ONE OF MY SERVICES I MENTIONED THAT I FEEL THAT THE STANDARD TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING INTO 2ND GEAR VERY EASY. BECAUSE IT'S NEW TO ME AND IT ALSO HAS SOME KIND OF ANTI ROLL I THOUGHT MAYBE JUST WASN'T WORKING THE PEDAL FAR ENOUGH OR JUST MISSING IT BUT IT DIDN'T SEEM SMOOTH. MY OTHER CONCERN WAS ABOUT SHIFTING OR THY LACK OF ENGAGING IN FOUR WEEK DRIVE. TOYOTA AGREED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM. THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND SAID HERE YOU GO. UNFORTUNATELY THE SAME PROBLEMS ARE STILL OCCURRING. MY TRUCK HAS BEEN AT MAUI TOYOTA FOR MONTHS NOW. THEY ARE NOW SAYING THAT THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND THEY AGREE THAT IT'S NO BETTER BUT THA IT'S IN RUNNING CONDITION. I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO ALL SERVICE HONOLULU WHERE I HAVE BEEN BASICALLY LEFT BLIND. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A CRITICAL SITUATION GOING ON SO I FIGURED THAT HAS PART TO DO WITH NOT GETTING ANY UPDATES. YESTERDAY MAUI TOYOTA CALLS AND INFORMED ME THAT THEY WILL HAVE MY TRUCK TOWED ON TUESDAY. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SAY THE LEAST. I DON'T WANT A NEW TRANSMISSION THAT ACTS LIKE ONE THEY SAID WAS NOT RIGHT. I WANT A PROPER FUNCTIONING VEHICLE THAT WILL LAST THAT'S WHY THIS IS MY FOURTH TOYOTA TRUCK.

OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKED UPON REMOVAL, WAS PUT BACK ON AND LEAKED ALL OIL FROM ENGINE. SUPRISED MOTOR DID NOT SEIZE WHILE DRIVING. TERRIBLE DESIGN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHARGING PAD OVERHEATED CAUSING THE PAD'S SURFACE TO BUBBLE UP. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNKNOWN. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE FAILURE COULD PRESENT A FIRE HAZARD. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH A QI WIRELESS PHONE CHARGING PAD AND THE RUBBER PAD HAD OVERHEATED CAUSING THE SURFACE OF THE PAD TO BUBBLE UP. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER SERVCO TOYOTA (2990 AUKELE ST. LIHUE, HI) AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000

DRIVERS SIDE SEAT HEATER STOPPED WORKING. I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THIS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE AND WAS PROBABLY DUE TO A BURNT UP CONNECTION AT SEAT HEATER AMP LOCATED UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND TOLD THEM THERE IS A VISIBLY BURNT CONNECTION BUT WAS ADVISED THAT SINCE I WAS 600 MILES PAST WARRANTY, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I CALLED TOYOTA USA AND GOT A CASE NUMBER AND WAS AGAIN TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO.WITH ALL THE IMAGES OF BURNT CONNECTORS THIS SEEMS TO BE A FIRE HAZARD.

I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE SHIFTING FROM 4TH OR 5TH GEAR WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REACH HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHICH IN THIS AREA IS 70 MPH. THE TRUCK WOULD STICK AND THE RPMS WOULD GO ABOVE 3000 RPM. I HAD TOYOTA OF MIDLAND LOOK AT THIS ON 03/07/19. IN APRIL I CONTACTED TOYOTA CORPORATE AND TOLD THEM OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY ASSIGNED CASE #1904152129 AND SENT A CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVE HERE ON 04/24/19. THE CORPORATE REP, ALONG WITH A LOCAL TECHNICIAN, HOOKED UP A COMPUTER AND RODE WITH ME AND WITNESSED THE SHIFTING PROBLEM. THE CORPORATE REP. SAID THAT THIS WASN'T ANY FAULT OF THE VEHICLE AND THE LOCAL TECHINICIAN SAID THAT HIS 2017 TACOMA WAS DOING THE SAME THING. ON 01/22/2020 I BROUGHT MY TACOMA IN FOR IT'S 30K MAINTANCE AND TOLD THE SEVICE WRITER ABOUT THIS ISSUE AGAIN. THE SERVICE WRITER SAID THAT HE HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING WHEN HE OWNED A 2017 & 2019 TACOMA, AND REMEDED THE PROBLEM WHEN HE TRADED FOR A 2020 TACOMA.. THIS IS MY FAMILIES 5TH TOYOTA VEHICLE; IT WILL BE MY LAST TOYOTA.

AFTER SMELLING GAS IN THE CABIN OF THE TRUCK FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, WITH NO APPARENT PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE HANDLING AND PERFORMANCE, THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN IN FOR IT'S REGULAR SERVICE. FUEL LINES GOING INTO THE ENGINE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WERE LEAKING AT A COUPLING JUST BEFORE THE INJECTORS. THE FIRST HALF INCH OF THE HOSE BEFORE THE COUPLING WAS DELAMINATED DUE TO FUEL BEING FORCED BETWEEN THE SHEATHING AND THE HOSE. TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER HAD NOT SEEN THIS ISSUE BEFORE AND DID NOT KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED IT.

GOOD MORNING. SINCE I DRIVE THIS TACOMA I NOTICE THE POWER TRAIN HAS A SLOW RESPONSE DRIVING SMALL ROAD OR HIGHWAY.WENT I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL IT MAKE ROUGH SOUND AND I HAVE TO PRESS HARDER IN ORDER TO CONTINUE THE CAR RUNNING. I BROUGHT THE CONCERN TO THE DEALER DURING THE SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE BUT THEY SAID IS NORMAL, EVEN I WENT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER SAME TOYOTA THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING. PLEASE KEEP ME UPDATED IF ANY CAMPAIG ABOUT 2017 TOYOTA TACOMA'S THANKING IN ADVANCE FOR HELPING IN THIS MATTER.

I HAVE A 2017 TOYOTA TACOMA WITH 90,000 MILES ON IT. THE WIND SHIELD IS NOT VERY RESISTANT TO ABRASION, AS THE WINDOW HAS NOW BECOME CLOUDY DUE TO THE ABRASIVENESS OF ROAD DUST, ETC., ESPECIALLY WHEN THE SUN IS AT A LOW ANGLE. SEE THE ATTACHED PICTURE. I DON'T KNOW IF OTHER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS BUT I THINK A BETTER QUALITY WIND SHIELD IS NEEDED TO HELP PREVENT THIS PITTING AND CHIPPING. IT CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE ANYTHING THAT IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE DURING DRIVING, WHEN THE SUN GLARE SHINES AGAINST THE PITS AND CHIPS. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON ANY VEHICLE UNDER A FEW YEARS OLD.

TWO MAJOR ISSUES ON MY TRUCK: 1) THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE SUSPENSION HAS BEEN SQUEAKING WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR NOT. 2) THE RADIO UNIT REBOOTS ITSELF RANDOMLY AND MULTIPLE TIMES DURING A SHORT DRIVE RENDERING THE BACKUP CAMERA USELESS.

WATER LEAK INTO THE REAR OF THE CAB. TOYOTA KNOWS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT THEY DECLINE WARRANTY ON IT. THEY ONLY HAVE A T-SB-0055-18 BUT IF THE CUSTOMER DOESNT RESEARCH FOR IT ONLINE THEY WILL NOT EVEN TELL THE CUSTOMER. THE WATER LEAK CAUSE MOLD IN THE CAR AND EVERYTHING IS WET ON IT. OUR CAR HAS NOW 38000 MILES. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE CAR AND THE MOLD WILL CAUSE PEOPLE TO GET SICK. TOYOTA WANTS A CUSTOMER TO PAY MORE THAN $10,000 TO FIX AN ISSUE THAT IS CAUSE BY THEM. PLEASE HELP ABOUT THIS.

THE VEHICLE SURGES WHEN BACKING UP IN REVERSE AND WHEN TAKING FOOT OFF BRAKE PEDAL IN DRIVE.

TRANSMISSION CONSTANT HUNTING/ SHIFTING.

PURCHASED TRUCK JULY 24, 2017 FROM MARK MILLER TOYOTA IN SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. IN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS I LOST BRAKES 3 TIMES. WENT TO DEALER EACH TIME. THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE SO NO REPAIRS MADE. AFTER THE 3 TIMES A RECALL CAME OUT, 18V888. EXACT SYMPTOMS. THEN A FORTH TIME HAPPENED AND THEY SAID THE RECALL DOESN'T EFFECT MY VIN SO THEY STILL HAVE TO DUPLICATE. TODAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2019 TRUCK WOULDN'T STOP AND I RAN THRU A STOP SIGN, AND IT WAS CONT ON MY DASH CAM. WITH THIS PROBLEM MY SEATS ARE LOOSE AND SOMETIMES DON'T LOCK. WHEN EVER IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE THE SEAT BELTS LOCK UP AND WONT UNLOCK LOCK. I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES WITH THIS TRUCK AND NOTHING WILL EVER GET FIXED AND I'M SCARED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE ESPECIALLY WHEN MY DEALER WON'T REPAIR ANYTHING. ALSO BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE VEHICLES OFF-ROAD OPTION, CRAWL CONTROL, WHICH USES ABS.
