Failure Date: 01/26/2007

This is a follow up to a previous complaint regarding difficulty shifting particularly from 1st to 2nd. After sending three certified letters to Toyota (the last sent to the president's office) I finally, more than 6 months later, received a written response. Perhaps because of the reasons I cited for my failed mediation attempt (in particular being given bad advice, which, at the time, I naively accepted, by the Toyota factory trained specialist on how to prepare for the mediation) I was granted a second attempt at mediation. The transmission continues to behave in the fashion I previously mentioned. I simply cannot understand why it is 'normal' for the gears to intermittently clash (and the colder it is, grind) when shifting. I have been driving 5 speeds for more than 2 decades.

Failure Date: 04/10/2006

My 2005 Tacoma has had a clutch squeal since it was brand new. Toyota has replaced 2 clutches after 2 release bearing failures in less then 1 years time. After the second clutch the squeal came back within 3,000 miles. The dealer lubed the slave cylinder / clutch fork intersection point. After several trips from 48 hrs to 1 month intervals they lubed it numerous times. Fed up I informed them I would not be coming in constantly to have the transmission lubed. They replaced the slave cylinder and clutch fork. Within 48 hrs the squeal was back. After having the vehicle in for a Toyota field tech to look at the replaced the clutch return spring. Within 24 hours the squeal was back. During all the incidents I contacted Toyota to keep them informed of the issues. The latest call resulted in escalation as I have requested replacement of the transmission as there is apparently a defect in the casting of the transmission or an internal issue. Toyota called me back to say they would work out a plan with my dealer to fix the vehicle. (this is after 13 trips to the dealer for the same problem between repairs and lube trips. ) I was informed I would be called back no later then Thursday Nov 14th. As of this point there has been no contact and I'm taking legal actions.

Failure Date: 03/11/2006

When shifting from 1st to 2nd, there is an inconsistent and unpredictable mechanical sensation that varied from a mild yet distinct rough transition (creating the perception that I was forcing the gears) to a dramatic mechanical sensation of gears changing (at times accompanied with a clicking sound). I returned to the dealership to have the master technician (mt) drive the truck and see if he was experiencing what I was experiencing. He shared that he could feel the gears and said he could replace the transmission if the factory trained specialist (fts) agreed it needed replacing. Fts drove the truck with me and did not feel that there was anything abnormal about the shifting (vehicle operates as designed. . . ). Because the present shifting sensation makes you feel like you are forcing or grinding gears when shifting from 1st to 2nd, this is a safety issue given I can tend to be more focused on the shifting from 1st to 2nd than on driving and it is uncertain whether the transmission will possibly fail while I am driving the truck. I have owned at least 5 or 6 five-speed vehicles. I have also worked on transmissions. In all my experience with 5-speeds I have owned, I have never experienced a shifting problem like I am presently experiencing. This is a brand new, supposedly, quality Toyota vehicle and it unquestionably seems that something is not right with the transmission. I am currently in arbitration.

During recent cold winter weather, had couple incidents where brakes appeared to not operate correctly on moderate ice/slushy road condition and this caused on one occasion to run through intersection due to not being able to stop the vehicle being fortunate that no other traffic was present at the time. This all comes after a transmission replacement at 6271 miles and rear brake work on the vehicle at 6558 miles. This truck is like a lemon.

Failure Date: 02/02/2005

My 2005 Toyota Tacoma used to lunge forward and accelerate while stopped. It happened over the several years I owned it. I reported this to the dealer and they ignored me. I would always make sure I had the brake depressed hard while stopped.
