Tacoma 4WD 6-cyl

  • 22,813 miles
Were pulling out and smell of gas filled up the cab, jerking occurred. Experiences of intermittent acceleration had been occurring for a very long time as been made aware of recently. Smell of gas has been overwhelming. Vehicle now parked outside and will not drive until it can be fixed or replaced, have been warned of potential air bag failure in Japanese plants found last week in this model. This vehicle is the only car we have, paid on it for a very long time. I have paid a lot of money to local dealership to keep service up to date, they have been difficult with me even though I have an extended warranty on it. I just had the services done, and had to pay for them, and even though I thought they were doing a good job, my battery died and I pulled the hood open and there was corrosion everywhere on battery and under the hood, I am going to look under the engine and drive train in the morning after looking at this new recall and I will report to Toyota financial services in the morning. At this point I am disgusted with the local dealership, I have purchased my last three Toyota there and I will not go back there every again, in fact after these past three years of continual recalls and safety hazards, as well as them not being fixed correctly or not being reimbursed for my time or expenses being lost from this vehicle not being repaired correctly when mine and my children's lives are at stake and my client's that I see in clinical therapy, I will never consider purchasing anything from the Toyota cooperation every again.

Tacoma 4WD 6-cyl

  • miles
Fuel pump continued to run after the ignition switch was turned off on the 2010 Toyota Tacoma truck and the key removed from the vehicle. I inserted the key and turned the ignition on. Waited 30 seconds then turned the key back off, the pump disengaged. The Tacoma has approximately 9000 miles. If this occurred again unnoticed, would it create a fire hazard?
