CODES 8630JM OR 8630JN CORROSION-PREVENTATIVE COMPOUND APPLIED. THIS WOULD EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THE FRAME FOR 15 YEARS. THIS VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED 1/3/13 . IT FAILED STATE INSPECTION,I'M FURIOUS. WHEN I CONTACTED DEALER AND TOYOTA "THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING". THAT THE PROGRAM ENDED 12/31/12. LISTED IN LSC 90D STATES THAT" TOYOTA HAS RECEIVED REPORTS THAT A SMALL NUMBER 146,228 OF 2001-2004 TACOMA'S OPERATED IN SEVERE COLD CLIMATE AREAS. 20 STATES LISTED WITH HIGH ROAD SALT USE EXHIBITED EXCESSIVE RUST CORROSION TO THE FRAME,CAUSING PERFORATION OF THE METAL". WELL IF YOUR FRAME IS PERFORATED . WOULDN'T THIS BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE!!!! I NEVER RECEIVED ANY OF THE COVER LETTERS. I HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE ON 8/30/11 @ PRESTIGE TOYOTA AGAIN WHY WASN'T THE INSPECTION DONE AND CORROSION-RESISTANT COMPOUND APPLIED. WHEN LSC 90D WAS PASSED ON 4/1/2011. MY FAMILY AND I WHERE SUBJECTED TO FRAME FAILURE WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN DEATH. I USED TO USE THIS TRUCK FOR BUSINESS,NOW WHAT DO I USE IT FOR SCRAP METAL? HOW DO I SERVICE MY CUSTOMERS AND PICKUP MATERIAL WITH OUT THIS TRUCK.WHICH I"M PAYING FOR UNTIL 11/14. PLEASE REPORT TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS ALSO AND BBB. I BELIEVE THE FRAME ON YOUR VEHICLE IS THE MAJOR STRUCTURE OF YOUR VEHICLE WHICH EVERY THING IS ATTACHED TO. THIS VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT NEW IN GLENS FALLS,NY. SO IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN NY ONE OF THE 20 STATES LISTED ON LSC 90D SERVICE BULLETIN. TOYOTA RECEIVED 25 MILLION FROM DANA CORP. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I HAVE A 09 TACOMA AND THE DRL'S HAVE ACTUALLY BURNED, MELTED AND POPPED THE LENS IN FRONT OF THEM. ALSO, THE BULBS THEMSELVES, UPON EXAMINATION, HAVE BURNED THE SOCKET IN WHICH THEY ARE HELD. YOU CAN SEE BLACK AROUND THE BASE OF THEM. TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AT 59K MILES AND I HAVE THE PLATINUM 7YEAR/100000MI WARRANTY AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ME 1100 FOR PARTS ALONE TO FIX, OFFERED NO HELP AND LIED TO ME AND SAID THEY HAVE HAD NO OTHER INCIDENTS OF THIS NATURE AND ITS A RARE PROBLEM NEVER BEFORE SEEN. I HAVE REMOVED MY DRL BULBS OUT OF CONCERN OF A FIRE STARTING AND THEN I PROBABLY GET STUCK WITH THAT BILL OF A BURNT FRONT END. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY BECAUSE TOYOTA PUT IN A BULB THAT'S TOO HOT OR BECAUSE TOYOTA DECIDED TO MAKE A CHEAP PLASTIC COVER FOR THE BULBS. I HAD ZERO INFLUENCE ON THIS FAILURE. THERE ARE COUNTLESS POSTS ON ALL KINDS OF WEBSITES CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM. I CAN TRACK DOWN OVER 1000 IN LESS THAN 30 MIN. PLEASE HELP. WHEN I CALL TOYOTA I JUST GET BULLIED AROUND AND TALKED TO LIKE I'M DUMB OR DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN, WHEELS
THE TRUCK HAD APPROXIMATELY 62,000 MILES WHEN WE DROVE IT TO FLORIDA CHRISTMAS DAY. ON SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30TH, WE RAN SOME ERRANDS THAT COVERED ABOUT 15 MILES OF CITY DRIVING. UPON RETURNING TO OUR HOTEL, AS WE BACKED IN TO A PARKING SPACE, THE TRUCK ACCELERATED WILDLY. THE TIRES SCREAMED AS WE BACKED UP ONTO A PARKING BERM (PICTURES INCLUDED) AND CONTINUED TO SQUEAL WHILE MY FOOT WAS STANDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I PUT THE TRUCK IN DRIVE, THE TRUCK CAME OFF OF THE BERM, BUT THE TIRES WERE STILL SQUEALING ALL THE WHILE I'M STILL STANDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I PUT IT IN PARK RIGHT AWAY AND SHUT IT OFF. LOOKING DOWN AT THE PEDALS, THERE WAS NOTHING UNUSUAL TO NOTE. NO MATS HAD MOVED AND THE PEDALS WERE AS THEY SHOULD BE. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE BERM, THERE IS NO TELLING OF WHAT THE CONSEQUENCES WOULD HAVE BEEN. I RECALL THAT AS WE BACKED IN, MY FOOT WAS EITHER ABOUT TO STEP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL OR I HAD ALREADY BEGUN TO BRAKE. MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE ACCELERATOR BECAUSE, WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ON, THE ENGINE HAS SUFFICIENT RPM'S TO SLOWLY MOVE THE TRUCK WITHOUT IT. I WENT OUT A FEW HOURS LATER TO START THE TRUCK AND MOVE IT BACK AND FORTH. AT THAT TIME, EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. I ALSO TOOK PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE BERM AND TIRES AT THAT TIME, WHICH I CAN SUPPLY. THIS WAS A VERY UNNERVING EXPERIENCE AND I'VE BEEN MINDFUL OF IT SINCE. EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN A COUPLE OF WEEKS SINCE THE INCIDENT, I'M UNSURE I CAN HAVE FAITH THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAVE SINCE GONE TO THE DEALER WHO PREFORMED TWO OPEN RECALLS, BUT SAID THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY "INCIDENT" AS STATED ABOVE EVER HAPPENING. *TR

SUSPENSION
AT MY STATE INSPECTION I WAS TOLD THE FRONT BALL JOINTS WERE VERY BAD. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE NOT UNDER WARRANTY, THEY WOULD COST $800.00 TO REPAIR AND THEY HAD NOT EXPERIENCED THIS FAILURE BEFORE AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE. THIS YEAR I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR INSPECTION TO FIND THE REAR LEAF SPRINGS ON BOTH SIDES WERE BROKEN. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER I WAS AGAIN TOLD IT WAS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE AND THEY HAD NOT EXPERIENCED IT BEFORE. I ASKED TO HAVE THE CONTACT INFORMATION FOR THE TOYOTA DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVE, BUT WAS TOLD THEY DID NOT GIVE THAT INFORMATION OUT. I SENT A COMPLAINT VIA EMAIL TO TOYOTA CORPORATE AND AT THIS POINT HAVE RECEIVED NOT RESPONSE. THE LOCAL REPAIR SHOPS TELL ME THEY HAVE REPAIRED MANY OF THESE TRUCKS FOR THESE PROBLEMS. THE INTERNET IS AWASH WITH COMPLAINTS REGARDING BROKEN SPRINGS. I WAS LUCKY, I DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM BEFORE THE SPRING PIECE REACHED MY REAR TIRE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A POTENTIALLY VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE COMPANY IS TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY TO RESOLVE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2011 TOYOTA TACOMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND SECURITY SYSTEM IN VEHICLE. . *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED ONE DAY AS SHE WAS LEAVING WORK, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. IT SEEMED AS THOUGH THE VEHICLE DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE KEY AND SHE WAS UNSUCCESSFUL AT JUMP STARTING IT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THE PROBLEM WAS DETERMINED TO BE WITH THE SECURITY SYSTEM, WHICH HAD BEEN INSTALLED AND HAD NOT BEEN REMOVED COMPLETELY. SHE ALSO STATED THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY, PARTICULARLY WHEN SHIFTING UP HILLS, IT REQUIRED HER TO FORCEFUL APPLY THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO GET THE VEHICLE TO GO APPROPRIATELY. AGAIN, SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT THE COMPUTER STATED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE GETTING WORSE, WHEN IN EARLY DECEMBER THE CONSUMER WAS IN ROUTE OVER A DOUBLE LANE ROAD OVER A MOUNTAIN, WHEN THE TRUCK SUDDENLY FELT AS THOUGH IT HAD SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR, THERE WAS NO POWER TO THE DRIVE TRAIN AND THERE WAS A GRINDING SENSATION FROM THE GAS PEDAL. THE CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, THEN DRIVE AND PROCEEDED AGAIN. A SIMILAR EVENT OCCURRED AS SHE MADE HER WAY BACK OVER THE MOUNTAIN AT THE END OF THE DAY. HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AGAIN AND IT DID NOT RESPOND TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, BUT IT ALSO MADE A VERY FAST CLICKING SOUND. THE CONSUMER WENT BACK TO THE DEALER, ONLY TO BE TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. THE MECHANIC DECIDED TO TEST DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND NOTED THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO BE SLUGGISH IN THE AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITION, BUT SEEMED TO FUNCTION MORE RESPONSIVELY IN THE 4TH POSITION.
