Tacoma

Since purchase vehicle has had intermittent vibration at highway speeds evidenced by shaking of the truck bed, empty passenger seat and steering wheel. Attempts to resolve by: Rebalancing, rotating and replacing tires, aligning front end, wheel truing, universal joint and drive shaft hanger bracket replacement, inspection of- rod ends, upper and lower control arms, steering box, unsuccesfull. Just found out about the attached tech bulletin from Toyota. Shouldn't this be a safety recall due to the potential for driveline failure? Toyota tech bulletin # T-sb-0008-14 it won't upload due to size.

Tacoma 6-cyl

  • 39,000 miles
My truck recently started having problems turning on. I noticed it only happens when the fuel tank is half-full or just below half. The truck finally starts after 4 or 5 attempts and runs fine for the most part. Sometimes when I am driving it kicks a little, like it loses a little bit of power but quickly regains it. When the tank is full it starts with no problems. I have been reading online that it is more than likely fuel related, specifically the fuel pump. The truck is just a little over 40K miles and according to Toyota, the fuel pump, if that is the case, should last more than 100K before malfunctioning. I feel this is a big problem to start having with a truck that is still fairly new, and it is not cheap to replace. I am asking to please look into this as a possible manufacturer defect. Thank you.
