SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
BOUGHT TRUCK IN VIRGINIA AND BROUGHT TO SOUTH CAROLINA IN 2016. SOON AFTER I GOT RECALL ON FRAME RUST. DAVE EDWARDS TOYOTA SPARTANBURG, SC INSPECTED AND DOCUMENTED "OK". NEEDING TO SELL TRUCK IN 2019 I CLEANED/SCRAPED FRAME AND REMOVED 6 POUNDS OF RUST FROM ONLY 1/2 OF THE TRUCK--TOOK TRUCK AND PICTURES IN TO DAVE EDWARDS AND THEY LOOKED AT PICTURES AND REFUSED TO LOOK AT TRUCK OR DO REPAIRS TO FRAME OR LEAF SPRINGS (ON RECALL). SO, I SPENT $20,000 ON A TRUCK THAT THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CONDEMN. SO, IS TRUCK UNSAFE TO DRIVE? WILL TOYOTA BE RESPONSIBLE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO TRUCK, OR MY FAMILY, OR SOMEONE ELSE?

THE ENTIRE FRAME OF THIS GARAGE KEPT TRUCK IS COMPLETELY RUSTED THOUGH. THIS TRUCK AS ONLY 61,000 MILES ON IT & IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE REAR LEAF SPRING MOUNTS ARE BROKEN & HAVE PUNCTURED THE GAS TANK. THE ELECTRICAL WIRING TO DO WITH THE SAFETY NEUTRAL SWITCH, WHICH IS TIED INTO THE ENTIRE FROM WIRING HARNESS HAS CAUGHT FIRE TWICE. TOYOTA HAS BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT ALL OF THIS, IN DETAIL, & THEY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT MY OWN OR ANYONE ELSE'S SAFETY. THERE ISN'T A SCRATCH ON THIS TRUCK & HAS REALLY LOW MILES YET IS SO UNSAFE TO USE BECAUSE OF POOR CONSTRUCTION ON TOYOTA'S PART.

SERVICE BRAKES
IN THE 3 OR SO MONTHS I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE, I HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL INSTANCES OF INTERMITTENT BRAKING ISSUES. WHEN COMING TO AN UNEXPECTED OR URGENT STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS LIKE IT CANNOT BE DEPRESSED ANY FURTHER AND INCREASED PRESSURE TO THE PEDAL DOES NOT INCREASE STOPPING POWER. I AM AN ATHLETIC MALE WEIGHING 205 POUNDS (POINT OF REFERENCE FOR YOU ON HOW MUCH PRESSURE I AM ABLE TO APPLY). HAVING OWNED DOZENS OF CARS OVER 35 YEARS, I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS. THE CLOSEST I CAN DESCRIBE THE ISSUE TO ANY OF MY EXPERIENCES WOULD BE THIS: IT FEELS VERY SIMILAR TO USING A BRAKE ON A VEHICLE THAT HAS POWER BRAKES WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING AND THERE IS A LOSS OF VACUUM TO THE SYSTEM. AT FIRST, THERE IS INITIAL VACUUM ASSIST, BUT AFTER A MOMENT, INCREDIBLE PRESSURE IS NEEDED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I VIEW THIS AS AN URGENT AND IMPORTANT ISSUE. SO MUCH SO, THAT I WANT TO GET RID OF THE VEHICLE FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND OTHERS. SINCE THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT, I DON'T KNOW IF THE DEALER CAN HELP. I WILL BRING IT TO THEM FOR A CHECK-UP AS A PRECAUTION THOUGH. I HAVE TRIED TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE IN ABANDONED PARKING LOTS, BUT HAVE YET BEEN UNABLE TO DO SO. THERE HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 3 INCIDENTS WHERE THIS HAS OCCURRED TO ME IN THE 4,000 MILES I HAVE DRIVEN THE TRUCK. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND FOLLOWED THE BREAK-IN PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THE MANUAL. IT HAD CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS TO AVOID HARD STOPS, WHICH I WAS CAREFUL TO DO.

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
A COUPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS, I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH RPMS SURGING (BETWEEN 800 & 1200) SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE TRUCK WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COLD; BOTH WHILE IDLING IN PARK AND SHORTLY AFTER PLACING THE VEHICLE INTO D OR R. THIS HAS RESULTED IN UNINTENDED VEHICLE MOVEMENT WHEN IT STARTED SURGING AFTER THE TRUCK WAS PUT INTO DRIVE. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY ON COLD MORNINGS OR LEAVING AN APPOINTMENT OR WORK AFTER THE TRUCK HAD SAT & COOLED. THE RPM SURGE WASN'T AN ISSUE WHILE IT WAS SIMPLY IDLING. HOWEVER, IT HAS OCCASIONALLY STARTED SURGING AFTER I PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO DRIVE. I PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO DRIVE, LET OFF THE GAS BUT HAD NOT YET (OR JUST STARTING TO) PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE SURGING WAS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO LURCH FORWARD SIGNIFICANTLY WHICH IS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS. IN ONE INSTANCE I HAD DRIVEN MAYBE 100 YARDS AND PULLED UP TO A STOP. AS I WAS JUST LETTING OFF THE BRAKE TO ENTER TRAFFIC AND NOT YET PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL IT STARTED SURGING AND JERKED FORWARD. I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES TO PREVENT HITTING OTHER VEHICLES. THIS LASTED FOR A MINUTE OR SO AND FORCED ME TO STAY ON THE BRAKE AND BLOCK TRAFFIC UNTIL THE SURGING STOPPED. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED ONLY A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK TO MYSELF AND OTHERS DUE TO THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION/VEHICLE MOVEMENT WHEN THE RPM'S SURGED WHILE THE POWERTRAIN WAS ENGAGED. TOYOTA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE SURGING AND HAS STATED THERE IS NO REPAIR AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER, TOYOTA HAS ALSO TRIED TO TELL ME THAT IT IS OPERATING AS 'NORMAL'. I HAVE TAKEN THE TRUCK TO THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE STATED THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THE SURGING BUT BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THE SURGING WHEN THE POWERTRAIN IS ENGAGED (IT HAPPENS ONLY OCCASIONALLY) THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING NORMALLY. THIS IS NOT NORMAL OR SAFE.

MY 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA WAS RECALLED DUE TO TOYOTA'S FRAME RUST AND CORROSION ISSUE. AFTER NOTIFICATION, JULY 2015, I BROUGHT MY CAR TO TOYOTA OF WALLINGFORD (DEALER) AS INSTRUCTED IN THE RECALL NOTICE FOR A FRAME INSPECTION. THE DEALER INSPECTED THE TRUCK FRAME AND SAID IT WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A NEW FRAME AS THE FRAME PASSED THEIR INSPECTION. I DISPUTED THIS BECAUSE I WAS ABLE TO PUSH MY FINGER THROUGH PARTS OF THE FRAME. THEY INSISTED THAT THE INTEGRITY WAS SOUND. THEIR RECOMMENDATION WAS TO SPRAY THE CAR WITH A CORROSION RESISTANT COVERING (CRC). AFTER SOME DEBATE I TOOK THEIR RECOMMENDATION AND AUTHORIZED THE WORK. THE CRC WAS A THICK BLACK GEL THAT COVERED THE FRAME, SO RUST, ROT AND DETERIORATION WAS COMPLETELY HIDDEN. IN RETROSPECT, I BELIEVE THEY INTENTIONALLY COVERED THE RUST SO ISSUES COULD NOT BE DETECTED AND RE-INSPECTION DID NOT OCCUR. RECENTLY I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRES ON THE TRUCK. WHEN THE TIRE DEALER PUT THE TRUCK ON THE LIFT HE NOTICED THE FRAME WAS BOWING AND LARGE PIECES OF THE FRAME WERE MISSING. THE CRC WAS STILL COVERING THE RUST BUT LARGE HOLES IN THE FRAME WERE DETECTED. THE TIRE SPECIALIST WOULD NOT WORK ON THE TRUCK DUE TO THE UNSTABLE FRAME, SO I QUICKLY CALLED THE TOYOTA DEALER TO RE-INSPECT THE FRAME. THEY CONCLUDED THAT THE FRAME WAS ROTTED AND NEED TO BE REPLACED, BUT INFORMED ME THAT THE DEADLINE UNDER THE RECALL HAD JUST PASSED ON 1/31/19. THEY WOULD NOT COVER ANY REPAIRS ALTHOUGH I FOLLOWED EVERY STEP AND ENDURED EVERY INCONVENIENCE FOR A ROT ISSUE THAT THEY WERE ALWAYS RESPONSIBLE FOR. UNSATISFIED WITH THE DEALER'S RESPONSE, I CONTACTED TOYOTA DIRECTLY AND THEY REAFFIRMED THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE FRAME. TOYOTA DID NOT RESOLVE ALL ISSUES RELATED TO THEIR FAULTY FRAMES. THEY BRILLIANTLY CAME UP WITH A SOLUTION THAT HID THE RUST AND ROT AND SAVED THE COMPANY MILLIONS BY MASKING THE ISSUE AND NOT REPLACING THE BAD FRAMES.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
SUDDEN ACCELERATION ON FEB 25, 2020. I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT, LOW SPEED (UNDER 10 MPH), RIGHT HAND TURN, VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. I PRESSED HARD ON THE BRAKE, LOCKING THE BRAKES UP AND SQUEALING TIRES. THE TRUCK LURCHED TO A STOP. NO DAMAGE, NO OTHER CARS NEAR WHERE I WAS PARKING. THIS WAS A NORMAL ROUTINE STOP AT A LOCAL GAS STATION THAT MAKE SOME MORNINGS BEFORE WORK TO PURCHASE A FOUNTAIN DRINK. UNKNOWN CAUSE - ECU/SOFTWARE, GAS PEDAL SENSORS, ELECTRICAL NOISE ? YEAR, MAKE, MODEL: 2015 TOYOTA TACOMA TRUCK - PURCHASED NEW DEC 2014. VEHICLE HAS BEEN ROUTINELY MAINTAINED AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. NEW TIRES ON FEB 7, 2020 AT 75,329 MILES, SIMILAR SIZE AS ORIGINAL. MILEAGE: 76093 AT TIME OF INCIDENT FYI - I AM AN ENGINEER AT NASA - JOHNSON SPACE CENTER

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SUSPENSION
TRANSMISSION SLIPS WHEN SHIFTED FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE TO DRIVE. HAS A 1-3 SECOND DELAY. IN ADDITION THIS SLIP MOTION CREATED A LOUD GEAR CRANKING NOISE AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE ON A U-TURN. THE TRUCK DID NOT MOVE OR SHIFT DESPITE HEARING THE ENGINE ACCELERATE ACCOMPANIED BY THE METALLIC GEAR-LIKE GRIND SOUND. SOUND VERY SIMILAR TO A STICK CAR WHEN YOU TRY TO ENGAGE A SHIFT WITHOUT THE CLUTCH (BUT MY TRUCK IS 2016 AUTOMATIC TRD-SPORT). LASTLY, WHEN TAKING SPEED BUMPS OR HARD SHIFTING MOTION (UP-DOWN) YOU CAN HEAR THE SUSPENSIONS MAKE A LOUD CLANK NOISE AS THE TRUCK SHIFTS IN THE SPEED BUMP MOTION.

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ON 3 OCCASIONS. 12/23/19, 12/24/19 & 2/22/20. SEEMS TO HAPPEN DURING SLOW CREEPY SPEED WITH FOOT ACTION ON THE BRAKE IN SLOW TRAFFIC OR GOING THRU A PARKING LOT. I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE TO BE PREPARED FOR THIS TO PUT PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE, SLAM IN PARK AND TURN OFF IGNITION DUE TO A SIMILAR OCCURRENCE ON 10/7/19. IF NOT PREPARED IT COULD EASILY RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. IT BOTHERS ME HOW RANDOM THIS OCCURS FOR NO REASON.WITH FOOT NOWHERE NEAR OR ON THE GAS PEDAL. VEHICLE ACTS LIKE YOU SLAMMED THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR.

THE FRAME IS RUSTED THROUGH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE NEXT TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. IT HAS TWO RUST HOLES THAT ARE CONNECTED WITH A CRACK THAT THE RUST IS STARTING TO WIDEN. THE HOLES ARE APPROXIMATELY 1-2 INCHES IN SIZE. I FIRST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2013 AT MY HOME OF RECORD (MINNESOTA) IN-BETWEEN DUTY STATIONS. I'M ACTIVE MILITARY AND I'M STATIONED IN NORTH CAROLINA. I DEPLOYED IN 2017 AND DIDN'T GET BACK UNTIL LATE 2018. IN EARLY 2019 STEVENSON HENDRICK TOYOTA CONTACTED ME TO HAVE RECALLS PERFORMED ON MY TRUCK. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY DID THE SEAT BELT, THROTTLE PEDAL, AND LOAD RATING STICKER. HOWEVER, I WAS NEVER INFORMED THAT MY FRAMED WAS RUSTED THROUGH. I FOUND OUT AFTER I HAD TO TROUBLESHOOT MY O2 SENSORS. AT WHICH POINT I CONTACTED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS IN REGARDS TO UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA CASE NO. 2:15-CV-02171-FMO-FFM TO SEE IF THEY WOULD REPLACE MY FRAME OR AT LEAST REPAIR IT; AS I UNDERSTOOD THE TIMEFRAME HAD PAST THAT TOYOTA WOULD REPLACE THE FRAME. I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION ABOUT THIS AND THAT I WAS DEPLOYED AS WELL DURING THIS TIME. TOYOTA STILL REFUSE TO FIX THE FRAME. WHEN I TAKE THE TRUCK IN TO GET SERVICED SOMETIMES THEY TURN ME AWAY; AS THEY DON'T WANT TO HELD LIABLE BECAUSE OF THE FRAME. FOR THE PRICE TO REPLACE THE FRAME I CAN PURCHASE A USED VEHICLE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DISPOSE OF MY VEHICLE WHEN IT RUNS FINE AND IS PAID FOR. SINCE THEN I HAVE TRIED TO FIND SOMEONE WITH THE EXPERTISE TO REPAIR MY FRAME, BUT NO ONE WANTS TO DO THE REPAIRS AND POSSIBLY BE HELD LIABLE AFTERWARDS.

HI. MY NAME IS [XXX] AND I BOUGHT MY 2010 TACOMA ( VIN. [XXX] ) USED AROUND 2 YEARS AGO FROM SHELOR MOTOR MILE. I LOVE THE TRUCK. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS I NOTICED THE FRAME IS STARTING TO RUST APART. I DON'T GO OFFROAD OR ANYTHING. I JUST USE THE TRUCK TO DROP MY 5 YEAR OLD OFF AT SCHOOL AND GO TO WORK MOSTLY. I'VE BEEN TRYING TO PUT USED OIL ON IT TO SLOW IT DOWN BUT I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S GOING TO BE ENOUGH. I NOTICED A HOLE IN THE FRAME AND NOW I'M NOT SURE IF IT WILL PASS NEXT INSPECTION. I ALSO WORRY THAT OTHER WELDS COULD BE RUSTING AND IT POSSIBLY BREAK IF I HIT A BUMP ON THE INTERSTATE AND THROW ME OFF THE ROAD. I STILL OWE AROUND $8,000 ON THE TRUCK. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. ANY HELP OR ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
