problem #13

Jan 162019

Tacoma

  • 8,000 miles
Recalled fuel pump with no remedy- constant vibration from 20-40mph - automatically braking from shadows- automatically redlines when cold driving - various trim melting from the sun - power steering fluid disappearing told them at every service since new - again on March 25 was told truck was good - then on March 26 they tell me they are replacing an entire steering rack. Rear brake drums are loud and clumsy feeling - rear end whine - mpg 17 at the best- stalls shifting from D > R < D. this truck is a death trap. It is sitting at the dealership waiting for a fuel pump recall remedy. The auto braking and automatic acceleration has almost killed me and most likely would have a less experienced driver. Toyota of nashia nh have given me no updates. They have locked me into this lease without paying thousands to get out of it. The date of occurrence I put is a random date as all of these issues have been happening since ieased the vehicle brand new. Toyota of nashua of course can never replicate any problems. I need help asap getting away from this truck and I cannot get any help. I am 100 percent disabled veteran and needed a reliable vehicle not a death trap. Help me please.

On March 25 I wrote to you about the problems I was having with the vehicle I lease.Toyota has ads on tv stating the service department is still open but I have not been contacted about fixing the problem and I do no feel safe driving the vehicle, because of what Toyota told me on the phone case #2003022885 and what is in the recall letter.if a problem were to occur warning lights and messages may be displayed. If the stalls while driving a this could cause a crash. I deliver fuel oil for a living and I am still driving the vehicle to work everyday and do not feel safe although I have written to the vt consumer Agency about this they have so far been unable to do anything.

The truck makes me very nervous driving it because I don't know how fast I can drive it without having a wreck.it's a lease vehicle I think they should either fix it or terminate the lease

I was drivin in the highway 65 M/H and I was using the cruise control, just as it passed through the ezpass toll booth the pre-collision system activated and brake abruptly, I also feel that when you drive about 60 miles per hour you apply the brake I feel small vibrations in the car and finally the 4X4 control knob is close to the fan knob and by mistake I connected the 4X4 when I want to turn on the fan I think it should have something like security to not be connected so easily

Driving highway speed. My truck had 5-6 gallons in the tank. Suddenly the lights on dash went off and loss of power. Truck would only drive 25mph. I had to pullover and thought I was gonna get crushed by the 18 wheeler behind me. Very dangerous situation. Now I do not let the tank get below 1/2 empty. Very annoying for a $55,000 truck
