I received the recall notice for this vehicle. I took the vehicle in for repair. The dealer said I had the proper springs on the vehicle and no repair was needed. I find this hard O believe since rear leafspring broke on this vehicle when it was approx. 2 yrs. Old. How then could it have the proper springs?

I took the vehicle in for the suspension recall repair. The dealer stated that upon inspection my vehicle has the proper parts. I find this hard to believe as this vehicle had a broken leaf spring when it was approx. 2 years old. If the problem is breaking leaf springs, then how can a vehicle under recall that had a prior broken leaf spring not be repaired?

I have exactly the same problem with read leaf springs as everybody else- the rear is sagging and and the front end is starting to rise(excessive tire wear) my truck has 66,000 miles and it only carries a 210lb vintage dirtbike 5 or 6 times a year. Do people have to start dying like GM's ignition switch before someone in the federal govt gets off their rear end and actually does their job? also spiral cable recall that could damage driver's airbag(cob (C1B) I have paperwork from Toyota and dealer stating the recall and now they are denying that one exists or ever existed. Also, when transmission shifts at low speeds(usually downshifting, clunk is heard in drive shaft) too much lash in rearend or junk U-joints. I have an aas in automotive technolgy and over 105 credits in automotive engineering. I'm not just blowing smoke. When I lived in nys, I had a vehicle inspection license and I would definitely fail many Toyota with these problems. No inspection sticker-no driving of vehicle.

Received letter from Toyota 2 years ago about leaf spring recall. At this point my leaf springs have weakened to the point of not being able to haul anything in the bed. Even driving down the interstate every bump or dip I hit in the road my truck now bottoms out. I contacted Toyota on 1/18/2016 with a complaint about the weakened state of the springs and my concern that they may break at anytime and also the fact of what else will be weakened, wore out or broke by the time the recall is ready. I received an email several days later stating that the recall was not ready and apologized for my inconvenience and frustrations. I believe they have had ample enough time to manufacture the parts and start bringing them in for repair. I was told the recall would be ready in early 2016. We are now into March and I cannot go any longer with the weakened state of the springs. I have asked the dealers and they cannot even tell me any information on this problem. I have already filed a complaint with Toyota about this issue and it is under file #1601210129. This has been an issue with my truck around the 50,000 mile mark and I have just chalked it up as parts becoming weak and wore out over time. I had plans to add a leaf to the rear suspension to bring the ride back to were it once was. Since the recall has came out I gave up that idea and have been waiting impatiently since. Like I said something needs to be done they have had ample enough time to correct this issue.

My 2009 Toyota Tacoma has been under recall for the rear leaf springs since 2014. I have called the dealership monthly to find out if/when the repairs are going to begin! there is still no resolution to this safety issue on this vehicle! this is unacceptable!

- Peyton, CO, USA

Toyota has notified me (NHTSA recall number: 14V604) on September 29, 2014 and again in September, 2015 concerning the rear suspension system of my Tacoma Toyota truck. I am very concerned that this safety recall 'fix' has gone on much too long. I have contacted my local dealer to see about this recall but they say they have not received the needed parts from Toyota. I also called Toyota hq and they too did not know when the remedy would be available. In the mean time my leaf springs occasionally make noises described by the dealer as a potential safety problem. My question: Why is it taking Toyota so long to repair what appears to be a simple problem" am I endangering my family and myself by continuing to drive my 2009 Tacoma"

No accident or breakage of rear leaf springs, but I was notified in 2014 of the recall notice and it is now 11/2015 and their is still no remedy! this is too long a period for a recall to be on hold, when I haul firewood, a boat, items to the landfill and grandkids and have to worry about a leaf spring breaking and causing an accident or injury to my family. Toyota makes lots of money off of their vehicles and this should be top priority on their list and you can bet it will be the last Toyota I buy. I'll go back to buying american made vehicles instead of imports! I guess that's what I get for buying a Toyota! I do have a case # 1509 from Toyota, but they still will not prepare a remedy, and I think this is bs... you took my money for the truck, now fix it in a timely manner and quit screwing us around. I can see there are lots of unhappy owners with this same issue from the complaints.

In 2013 our leafspring's broke and we had to replace them. Toyota stared a recall notice but had no solution in 2014. A year letter we received a notice they were still working on it. We requested a reimbursement for the money we paid out to have them repaired and they said no. Just recently they said we could submit all my paperwork for possible reimbursement. We submitted mechanics bill, canceled check and bank statement also current registration and title. I just received a letter telling me again that I needed to submit those items. I called and on the phone they admitted they had the paperwork I sent and they even went as far as calling the mechanic ( while I was on the line ) on to confirm he did the work and now they want a written statement from the mechanic on how my truck was acting when it came in for the repairs what parts and numbers he used along with his remedy and the outcome. This is on the bill I paid ( except the part #) I do not understand why they are asking me for all the paperwork again and neither do their employees I have spoken to. I believe Toyota is just trying to get out of paying for the repairs on their recall. I still remember driving down the road and hearing this god awful noise, worse than a clunk. Took it to the Toyota dealer and they said they leaf spings were bad. I had them replaced at our local auto shop because they wanted almost half of what Toyota wanted replace them. So far the replacements are working.

Vehicle recall notification received as on date above and to date Toyota has not notified me of any remedy. Believe that this is an excessive wait time for Toyota to get recall fix completed.
