FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE STALLS WHEN OPERATING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. HAS STALLED OUT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IN PARKING LOTS. HAS BROKEN DOWN AND REGISTERED FUEL TROUBLE CODES FOUR TIMES IN LESS THAN 90 DAYS. WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS IT HAS REGISTERED THE P08700 AND P0017100 CODES FOR LOW FUEL PRESSURE. DEALER HAS REPLACED HIGH AND LOW PRESSURE FUEL PUMPS AND PROBLEM IS STILL NOT FIXED. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITION BECAUSE THE DRIVER LOSES ALL POWER AND THE VEHICLE DOES NOT RESTART. THE DRIVER HAS TO LOOK FOR A PLACE TO 'DITCH' OR PUSH OUT OF TRAFFIC. IT HAS BLOCKED TRAFFIC DURING STALLING EPISODES, CAUSING A SAFETY CONCERN.

SERVICE BRAKES
TOYOTA TACOMA 2020 TRD OFF ROAD 4X4 VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH USE THE ABS SYSTEM TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN IT ROLLS BACK ON A HILL DOES NOT WORKING PROPERLY ON TOYOTA TACOMA OFF ROAD 4X4 VEHICLE. IT CAN NOT STOP VEHICLE AS REQUIRED. IT IS DEADLY DANGERS IN MOUNTAINS STEEP SLIPPERY AND NARROW ROADS. AT THIS CONDITION THE VEHICLE CONTROL IS IN QUESTION. I PERSONALLY FACED IT, BARELY AVOIDED ACCIDENT. SOME OTHER TACOMA DO HAVE DIFFERENT BOOSTER WHICH WORKING PROPERLY. OBVIOUSLY, THAT THIS CAR DOES HAVE DESIGN FLOW. I DID SPEAK WITH TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I DID BUY THE CAR AS WELL AS WITH TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE. THEY DID ADMIT THAT THIS CAR IS NOT WORKING AS OTHERS BUT DID CLAIM THAT IT IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. I DO THINK THAT YOU DO HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO PRESS TOYOTA TO FIX THE PROBLEM AT BOOSTER ON TACOMA OFF ROAD 4X4 VEHICLE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE STRUGGLES TO START WITH NORMAL STARTING PROCEDURES. VEHICLE'S IGNITION DELAYS NORMAL STARTING PROCEDURES SOMETIMES ALLOWING THE KEY TO BE HELD SYSTEMATICALLY FOR AN ABNORMAL PERIOD OF TIME BEFORE VEHICLE STARTING. IF VEHICLE FAILS TO START IN THE FIRST TRY WITHIN 3-5 SECONDS VEHICLE WOULD CRANK BUT WOULD NOT START. THEN A SECOND ATTEMPT WOULD HAVE TO BE MADE. THIS IS NOT COMMON FOR A GAS ENGINE VEHICLE . WAS TAKEN TO DEALER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION AND SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THIS IS NORMAL FOR MOST LATE MODEL TACOMAS.
