Summary
Dealer Package: 09/14/2018 The note in the ?Parts Ordering Process? section to reference POL17-16 to determine the applicable U-joint kit part # has been removed. T-SB-0302-17 has been updated with this information. Toyota has received a number of reports regarding Propeller Shaft Universal Joints on certain 2005 ? 2011 model year Tacoma vehicles. In these reports, customers have indicated that there is a drivetrain vibration and/or drivetrain noise. If the vehicle continues to be driven with the aforementioned condition, there is risk of severe damage to the propeller shaft. Although the Propeller Shaft Universal Joints are covered by Toyota?s Powertrain Limited Warranty for 5 years or 60,000 miles (whichever occurs first), we at Toyota care about the customers? ownership experience. Toyota is now providing coverage for repairs related to this condition. The following information is provided to inform you and your staff of the program notification schedule and your degree of involvement.
