ENGINE, SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BROUGHT TRUCK TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AS PART OF RUSTED FRAME RECALL TO BE VERIFIED. THEY STATED TRUCK WAS NOT RUSTED ENOUGH UNDERNEATH FOR TOYOTA TO APPROVE RECALL. THAT WAS A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. I HAVE RECENTLY BROUGHT IT TO A FEW MECHANICS TO DO SOME WORK ON A/C AS THE A/C STOPPED WORKING AND THAT REFUSE TO WORK ON IT AS THE TRUCK IS SO RUSTED UNDERNEATH!! THEY SAID IT WOULD CRUMBLE. NOT EVEN WORTH IT.

I AM THE SOLE OWNER/PURCHASER OF A 2005 TACOMA. LAST WEEK A LOUISVILLE, KY TOYOTA DEALER, OXMOOR TOYOTA, WAS REPLACING THE REAR U-JOINTS AND NOTICED RUST AND CORROSION THROUGHOUT THE FRAME. IT WAS SO BAD, THE TOYOTA TECHNICIAN CONSIDERED IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA USA BUT THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO... THERE SEEMS TO BE NEGLIGENCE AND LIABILITY HERE. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

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.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
VEHICLE MAY STALL WHILE DRIVING. IS THE RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP. THAT NEEDS REPLACING. I GET WARNING LIGHTS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON. I ALSO GET A LOW FUEL PRESSURE LIGHT THAT ALSO GOES ON. I'VE GOTTEN THE RECALL NOTICE A YEAR AGO. AND EVERY TIME I GO TO TOYOTA FOR AN OIL CHANGE THEY SAY THAT THERE'S NO FIX YET FOR THE PROBLEM. ITS BEEN A YEAR ALREADY. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR . FOR ME TO STALL WHILE AM DRIVING AND KILL SOMEONE OR ME. UNACCEPTABLE , AM SICK AND TIRED OF TALKING TO THE DEALER. THEY SEEM TO HAVE NO ATTENTION OF FIXING THIS DANGEROUS RECALL

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN DRIVING MY 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA (APPROX. 6900 MILES) I NOTICED THE BRAKES WERE NOT FIRM AFTER INITIAL APPLICATION. THE PEDAL THEN WOULD SLOWLY SINK TO THE FLOOR AND BRAKING POWER WAS DRASTICALLY REDUCED THAT TIME. I PUMPED THE BRAKE AND ACHIEVED BETTER BRAKING RESULT BUT WHEN CONSTANT PRESSURE WAS APPLIED THE BRAKING RESULT DIMINISHED VERY QUICKLY. THIS CONTINUED DURING ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS. TO ME IT VERY CLOSELY RESEMBLED A MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER SEAL FAILURE, WHICH I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH VEHICLES IN THE PAST. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND OPERATED THE BRAKES IN A STATIONARY POSITION AND THE SAME SYMPTOMS OCCURRED. THE BRAKE FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR WAS AT THE CORRECT LEVEL AND DID NOT VARY. I WAS ABLE TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. UPON INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE TECHNICIAN BELIEVED THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WAS FAULTY. THE DEALER HAS ORDERED THE REPLACEMENT PART AND PROVIDED A RENTAL VEHICLE AT NO CHARGE. I WAS INFORMED EVERYTHING WOULD BE A WARRANTY COVERED REPAIR.

SERVICE BRAKES
MY 2020 TOYOTA TACOMA TRUCK I FOUND THAT ,WHEN SITING AT A STOP LIGHT, WITH MODERATE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES, THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD SLOWLY GO TO THE FLOOR. TOOK THE TRUCK TO CHECKERED FLAG TOYOTA, 5301 VIRGINIA BEACH BLVD, VIRGINIA FOR REPAIR. WAS TOLD THAT THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR WAS 'NORMAL' FOR THIS TRUCK. SHOP FOREMAN SAID THAT THE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR WAS 'NORMAL FOR THIS TRUCK'. I ASKED TO TALK TO THE TOYOTA SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE REGION BECAUSE I WAS CONCERNED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR WAS A MALFUNCTION OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND NOT NORMAL. WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NOT GIVE ME INFORMATION ABOUT THE TOYOTA SERVICE REP BECAUSE THAT WAS NOT THE WAY WE DO THINGS. A BRAKE SYSTEM THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL CANNOT KEEP PRESSURE AND GOES TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN DEPRESSED CANNOT BE 'NORMAL'.
