ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
CAR HESITATES WHEN NEEDING TO ACCELERATE RAPIDLY. WHILE SLOWING DOWN THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS PUSHING ,NOT DOWN SHIFTING FAST ENOUGH. THE DIFFERENTIAL BANG AT TIME WHEN COMING TO A STOP, IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS NOT DISENGAGING. I THINK THERE IS A PROGRAMMING ISSUE THAT TOYOTA IS NOT ADMITTING TO. I ALSO HEARD THAT THERE IS A BLOWER ISSUE. THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGES AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS WHEN YOU GO TO ACCELERATE THEN DON'T AND THEN DO. CAR GOES INTO NEURTAL HUNTING FOR A GEAR

I THINK MORE OF THESE 2019 TACOMAS NEED LOOKED INTO TO BE ADDED TO THE RECENT RECALL. JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING DESCRIBED IN THE CURRENT RECALL IS GOING ON WITH MY TACOMA BUT MY TACOMA IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER TO MENTION IT THEY SAID NO IF YOURS IS NOT ON THE LIST ITS FINE. IT SURE DOESN'T DRIVE FINE THOUGH.

ENGINE
WHEN SLOWING DOWN BEFORE MAKING A LEFT TURN ACROSS TRAFFIC, AFTER THE VEHICLE COMES TO A CRAWL OR STOP AND THEN I ACCELERATE TO TURN LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE HESITATES FOR 1 TO 2 SECONDS BEFORE ACCELERATING. I TOOK MY 2018 TOYOTA TACOMA TO MY DEALER AND THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. A RE-SET OR UPGRADE TO THE COMPUTER HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF DISCUSSION OF THIS ISSUE AT HTTPS://WWW.TACOMAWORLD.COM/THREADS/3RD-GEN-STALLING-IN-INTERSECTION-UPDATE.459540/.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ALL FOUR DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED ONE AT A TIME, AND REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY (AT THE TIME). SINCE THEN, TWO OF THEM ( BOTH ON THE DRIVERS SIDE) HAVE FAILED AGAIN AFTER THE 1 YEAR REPLACEMENT PART WARRANTY RAN OUT. THIS POSSES A SAFETY HAZZARD AND A SECURITY RISK TO MYSELF AND ANYBODY ELSE OPERATING THIS VEHICLE. UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET, IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, AND THEREFORE SHOULD BE UNDER A SAFETY RECALL.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE GONE OUT TO MY TACOMA THAT I CAN HEAR THE FUEL PUMP RUNNING ON IT'S OWN. I HEARD IT RUNNING ONE EVENING, WHILE NO KEYS WERE INSERTED AND THE TRUCK WAS LOCKED UP. THE TRUCK RUNS ROUGH MOST OF THE TIME AND I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH IT STALLING AND NOT WANTING TO START BACK UP AGAIN. IT WILL TAKE 3 TO 4 TIMES TURNING THE TRUCK OVER BEFORE IT WILL RELUCTANTLY WILL START UP. ALSO THE TRACTION CONTROL BUTTON DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE AND THE DIFFERENTIAL BUTTON WHEN PUSHED ON DOES NOT ENGAGE THE DIFFERENTIAL. ALL OF THESE ISSUES HAVE STARTED AT DIFFERENT TIMES. THE FUEL PUMP RUNNING WHEN NO ONE INSIDE IT HAS JUST THE MONTH BEEN NOTICED AS WELL AS THE BUTTONS. THE STALLING STARTED TO BE NOTICED ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO AND I AT FIRST THOUGHT IT WAS DUE TO IT BEING NOT BROKE IN OR ME NOT GIVING IT ENOUGH GAS, BUT IT IS ALMOST EVERY TIME NOW WHEN I BACK UP OR GO FORWARD IT CAN STALL.

DEALER DID NOT APPLY THE CORROSION RESISTANT COMPOUND TO THE FRAME DURING THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PERIOD AS I REQUESTED. THEY DID NOT NOTIFY ME WHEN THEY WERE CAPABLE OF DOING SO UNTIL AFTER THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED.AS A RESULT DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD, THE FRAME DEVELOPED MAJOR RUST PERFORATION RESULTING IN FRAME CRACKING.AT THAT POINT THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.THE DEALER ALSO WOULD NOT REPLACE THE FRAME AS PER THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM. I MADE NO PROGRESS WITH EAST MADISON TOYOTA OR TOYOTA CORPORATE OVER THIS ISSUE.I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA CORPORATE, THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU AND ALSO CONTACTED DATCP. I AM BASICALLY GETTING NOWHERE WITH THIS ISSUE AND AM LEFT WITH A VEHICLE SITTING IN THE BACKYARD USELESS.IF THEY KNOW THE FRAME IS FAULTY WHY DON'T THEY FIX IT ? I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED OR KILLED SOMEONE ELSE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
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.
