MULTIPLE OCCURANCES - 2019 TACOMA 42XXX MILES AND ON THE 3RD ISSUE OF WARPING FRONT ROTORS. VEHICLE IS HIGHWAY DRIVEN PRIMARILY AND ROTORS WARP AND CAUSE SHAKING WHILE BRAKING AT OR AROUND 3000 MILES AFTER HAVING THEM CUT OR REPLACED. SHAKING IS VIOLENT WHEN SLOWING FROM 65-70MPH AND LIGHTLY PRESENT DURRING CITY DRIVING. THIS ISSUE WAS ALSO A PROBLEM ON MY PREVIOUS 2019 TACOMA, MY 2018 TOYOTA CHR, AND MY 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS NOT A MODEL SPECIFIC ISSUE. ON PAST VEHICLE THE CONCERN WAS RESOLVED BY SWITCHING TO A NON OEM ROTOR. EVERY TOYOTA I HAVE DRIVEN THAT WAS 20110 OR NEWER ALSO HAS A HEAVY FRONT BIAS TO ITS BRAKE PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION WHICH IS MORE THANK LIKELY A KEY COMPONENT TO THE CAUSE OF THIS ONGOING CONCERN.

IN A MATTER OF MINUTES, THE BRAKES WERE FINE AND THEN THEY WEREN'T. THERE WAS NO NOTICE GIVEN. PUSHED ON THE BRAKES, THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND DID NOT STOP OR SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN. PUMPED THE BRAKES AND WAS ABLE TO SAFELY DECELERATE, BUT NOT BEFORE ALMOST CRASHING INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AN INDEPENDENT BRAKE SHOP HAS INDICATED THE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING INTERNALLY. THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL (18V-888) FOR PRODUCTION DATES OF 30 DAYS BEFORE THIS VEHICLE WAS PRODUCED. SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS VEHICLE EXHIBITS THE IDENTICAL BEHAVIOR IN THE RECALL THAT APPLIES TO "NOT" THIS ONE. AT LEAST AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING.

I have 4 Toyo Open Range A31, P25 45 R16 Tires on my 2019 Toyota Tacoma. They were new tires on the 2019 Tacoma when I purchased it new from the Toyota Dealership in August 2019. 4 tires on the Tacoma and 1 Spare tire. I noticed over he life of these 4 Toyo tires they wore rapidly and chunked and lost chunks of rubber in the tread areas. I always rotated and balanced my Toyo tires as required. I had yearly front end alignments done . 2020 and 2021. I do an air check every 30 days. There are no mechanical problems with my 2019 Toyota Tacoma. When these Toyo Open Range A31 Tires were new they started out at 11/32 tread in August 2019. As previously noted all 4 tires wore rapidly and chunked, rubber loss in thread. By October 2021at 19,500 all 4 Tires were at 5/32 closer to 4/32 and had Chunking Rubber loss in threads on all 4 tires. These tires lasted 2 years and 19,500 miles and must now be replaced. Toyota does not warranty the Toyo Tires and told me to deal with Toyo Tires directly. Toyo Tire has been challenging to deal with and are only offering 25% off towards a purchase of 4 new Toyo Tires. This in Unacceptable. Its reasonable for a consumer to expect more than 19,500 miles or 2 years from tires. The Big Picture and Major Concern is Safetey !! These Toyo Open Range A31 Tires Wore Out and Chunked with Rubber Loss in Thread by the time they were 2 years old and by the time they reached 19,500 miles. For safety reason I must replace these tires. I respectfully request that NTSB investigate this serious safety matter.

To whom it may concern, I was issued a recall on this vehicle for a defective fuel pump. I have been attempting to rectify the situation through City World Toyota located at 3333 Boston Road, Bronx, NY 10469. On 7/1/2021 I spoke with Jorcelyn and was told the part needed to replace the defective component was not in stock and it would be ordered and available within a 4 weeks. I was told I would receive a call back and never did. On 8/9/2021, over a month later, I got in touch with Wasile and was again told the part was not in stock. I was told they would check and then call back the following day. Again, I never received a call back. On 8/12/2021 I called again and was told they do not have the part in stock and would call back with an ETA. It was been months since this recall was issued and City World Toyota has not rectified the issue. This vehicle has been unsafe to drive since the recall has been issued and I have been pleading with them to resolve it. The customer service standards as well as the regard for safety from City World Toyota has been abysmal. There is no doubt this establishment is blatantly ignoring these safety recalls for not only myself but many others as well.

In October of 2020 they replaced the fuel pump then noticed a hose was bad it would take 2 months to get that hose.. Upon driving my vehicle I noticed an 4mpg lost. was getting 22 mpg prior to the change. I have been in contact w/toyota in Texas and they send a 'factory rep' to look at my truck. here is the problem he snapped a picture stating my truck got 28.6 mpg, upon getting into my truck it read 20.6 mpg. they refuse to replace the fuel pump and hose at another dealership. The secretary at toyota said if they would change and it didn't make a difference they would be wasteful. I said replace it and we will see however you say you not going with the customer the paid good hard earns money for this vehicle we will never know. all I want: is the have a new fuel pump and hose put into my Tacoma, it may not or it will prove there was a problem. I am see I am no alone with this reduction of mpg's with high gas prices.....

Transmission shifts when it should not shift! It also jerks when accelerating and maintaining speeds. While in cruse control the truck drops in 20mph in speed really concerning when it would cause a bad wreck while it drops it constantly still jerks and it also floors the truck to get back up to the preselected speed and transmission jerks and studders and drops and speeds back up and so it sounds like it could blow up from it flooring and dropping in speed and flooring it in cruse control This needs fixed and worked out! Transmission shouldn’t be jerking or hunting for gears

I was driving my truck a 2019 TRD off road Tacoma from San Diego to LA I was on the 605 freeway in the fast lane when I noticed smoke smell and then I noticed fire flames by the air conditioner and the phone charging plate I proceed to Exit the freeway thankfully I did not get in a car accident with any other vehicles however I was unable to stop and put out the fire. It's very upsetting because at no fault of my own I am now lob obligated to find another vehicle and I am not in the financial or credit position that I was when I bought my truck that is now a total loss by my insurance it covers my loan but not much after that so the fact that I've heard that this has been an issue for a few other Tacoma's And it's not even listed yet there's a problem the fact that this is not within my control as to what happened and there's nothing but oh well good luck getting another car Something needs to change.

MY 2019 TACOMA 4X4 DBL CAB SR5 HAS 22000 MILES ON IT AND HAS A HISTORY OF THE BRAKES PULSING. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED BOTH FRONT AND REAR BRAKES AT 5K AND 11K MILES, AND NOW AGAIN AT 22K MILES. AT EACH SERVICE APPOINTMENT I COMPLAINED THAT THE BRAKES PULSE BADLY, AND THEY CONFIRM THAT THE ROTORS AND BACK DRUMS ARE WARPED. SO THEY REPLACE THE ROTORS & DRUMS, AND THE PROBLEM IS RELIEVED FOR A TIME, BUT THE PULSING COMES BACK WITHIN A FEW THOUSAND MILES. I KEEP TELLING THE SERVICE PEOPLE THAT THERE MUST BE A DIFFERENT PROBLEM CAUSING THE BRAKES TO WARP BUT THEY JUST SHRUG IT OFF.

UNPROMPTED ACCELERATION - WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 15 MPH IN MODERATE TRAFFIC, I ACCELERATED BRIEFLY AND THEN LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL. AFTER RELEASING THE GAS PEDAL, THE TRUCK CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AND EVEN DOWNSHIFTED, CAUSING THE TRUCK TO LURCH FORWARD. CONDITIONS - I WAS IN LIGHT TO MODERATE TRAFFIC ON MY COMMUTE TO WORK. THE TRAFFIC WAS STOP-AND-GO. THE CARS AHEAD OF ME ACCELERATED, SO I DID AS WELL. THE CARS AHEAD OF ME QUICKLY DECELERATED, SO I LET OFF THE GAS BUT DID NOT NEED TO BRAKE AS I WAS A SAFE DISTANCE. THE TRUCK CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE WELL AFTER I LET OFF THE GAS AND IT LURCHED FORWARD AND DOWNSHIFTED IN THE PROCESS. THE ENGINE RPM WENT TO ABOUT 3,500. I WAS ABLE TO APPLY THE BRAKE, AND THE ACCELERATION STOPPED AND THE ENGINE WENT BACK TO IDLE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED DECELERATION LAG IN MANY VEHICLES, BUT IN THIS CASE, IT WAS A SURGE, NOT A LAG. IT WAS LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO THINK OF SHIFTING TO NEUTRAL AND APPLYING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE.
