THERE ARE 3 RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE IN WHICH I'VE BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND TRIED TO SET UP A DATE IN WHICH I CAN LEAVE MY VEHICLE. THE RECALL NOTIFICATION FROM TOYOTA STATED THAT I WOULD BE PROVIDED A LOANER VEHICLE WHILE THE WORK IS BEING PERFORMED, SINCE THE RUST TREATMENT WAS GOING TO TAKE 4 DAYS TO DRY. NOW SINCE I'VE REQUESTED A LOANER VEHICLE THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUES TO AVOID MY CALLS OR LET ME SPEAK WITH THE HEAD REPAIR TECHNICIAN. THE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE HAS HAD RECALLS FOR SAFETY HAZARDS AND POTENTIAL DEATH WHILE DRIVING.

THE U JOINTS ON MY 2007 TOYOTA TACOMA DETERIORATED TO THE POINT IN WHICH I WAS FORCED TO REPLACE THEM, MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS ISSUE WITH THE U-JOINTS HAS NOW LED TO AN INCREASE DETERIORATION IN MY DRIVE SHAFT AS WELL. RECENTLY, I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER STATING THERE WAS A RECENT RECALL ON THE ABOVE DESCRIBED U-JOINTS. UPON TAKING MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME SEVERAL DIFFERENT STORIES. IN THE BEGINNING, MY DRIVE SHAFT WAS SUPPOSEDLY JUST FINE AND IN NEED OF NO REPAIRS; THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD STILL REPLACE THE U-JOINTS IN QUESTION. LATER ON THEY CHANGED THEIR STORY TO THE DRIVE SHAFT NEEDING TO BE REPLACED COMPLETELY DUE TO WEAR ON THE ITEM FROM THE FAULTY U JOINTS. AFTER EXPLAINING BACKGROUND INFORMATION THEY TOLD ME I WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE DRIVE SHAFT TO BE REPLACED FOR FREE; BLAMING THE DAMAGE ON A PREVIOUS MECHANIC WHO HAS BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR HIMSELF FOR OVER 35 YEARS. NOW, AS I AM WRITING THIS COMPLAINT, MY VEHICLE SITS AT THE DEALERSHIP, WITH ME UNABLE TO UTILIZE IT DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY NOW SAY THEY WILL NOT PUT THE DRIVE SHAFT BACK ON AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET IT TOWED. THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT I AM NOT ELIGIBLE FOR RECALL STATUS, THEY WILL NOT PUT MY DRIVE SHAFT BACK INTO MY VEHICLE, AND THEY ARE COSTING ME AND MY FAMILY A LOT OF MONEY DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY VEHICLE IS MY LIVELYHOOD.

THE REAR PROPELLER SHAFT BROKE WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 2 AT 60 M.P.H. (WASHINGTON STATE). THE DRIVELINE FLAILED AROUND AND DAMAGED THE EXHAUST PIPE AND THE METAL BRACKET COMMON TO THE FUEL TANK. THIS IS A 2007 TOYOTA TACOMA 4WD. I FOUND A SAFETY RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM NHTSA # 07V324000 THAT STATES THE PROPELLER SHAFT WAS INCORRECTLY CAST AND COULD SNAP (JUST LIKE THIS ONE DID). I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT BECAUSE MY VIN DID NOT MATCH WITH THIS RECALL. THE PHOTOS I AM UPLOADING SHOWS THE SHAFT BROKEN OFF IN A CLASSIC CASE OF METAL FATIGUE DUE TO IMPROPER CASTING.

ON A ROUTINE COMMUTE HOME, I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH IN THE #3 LANE ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I NOTICED I LOST ACCELERATION, BUT THE ENGINE WOULD REV. IT REGAINED ACCELERATION THEN WENT AWAY AGAIN WITH A HARSH SOUND. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY MOVE OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. IT WOULD NOT MOVE IN ANY GEAR AND UPON INSPECTION OF THE UNDERSIDE, SMOKE/STEAM WAS COMING FROM THE DIFFERENTIAL AND IT WAS VERY HOT TO THE TOUCH. THE TOWING COMPANY SPENT AN HOUR TRYING TO PULL IT ONTO THE FLATBED DUE TO BOTH REAR WHEELS BEING LOCKED DESPITE ALL BRAKES BEING OFF AND THE TRANSMISSION BEING IN NEUTRAL. ONCE IT WAS DROPPED OFF AT MY RESIDENCE, I REMOVED THE THIRD MEMBER ASSEMBLY. I DISCOVERED THERE WAS NO FLUID AND THE PINION GEAR LOOKED GROUND DOWN AND THERE WERE METAL FLAKES. IT ALSO APPEARED TO BE LEAKING FROM THE PINION SEAL, SOMETHING I WAS NOT AWARE OF LEADING UP TO THE INCIDENT.

THE DEALERSHIP KNOWN AS RAMEY TOYOTA HAS MY TRUCK AND CHARGING ME WITH UNNECESSARY CHARGES ON TOWING THE VEHICLE TO THEIR FACILITY DUE TO A SPRING CLIP BECOME LOOSE ALLOWING THE VEHICLE'S RIGHT REAR WHEEL TO SWAY THEREFORE IT HAD TO BE TOWED. CONTACTED TOYOTA AUTHORIZED THE TOW AS WELL AS A VEHICLE TO RIDE SO THEY CAN REPLACE THE LEAF SPRING. TOYOTA NOW DENIES THEY AUTHORIZED THESE TWO ISSUES AND LEFT ME WITH HOLDING THE CHARGES. THEY CALLED THE TOWING SERVICE AND NOT I SO THEREFORE I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE. PLEASE NOTE ALL THE AGGRAVATION CAUSED FROM THE ABOVE AND ADDED DANGER FROM THIS VEHICLE IS THE RUST ON THE FRAME! PLEASE CONTACT THIS DEALERSHIP AND GET THE DANGERS OF DRIVING THIS TRUCK ON THE ROAD. IT IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE DUE TO ALL THAT IS MENTIONED HERE.

AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS I STARTED EXPERIENCING A LOUD "SQUEAK" COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AND A "WHISTLE" AT SPEEDS OF 65-80MPH. I CONTACTED DEALER AND TOOK IT IN FOR THEM TO TROUBLESHOOT THE ISSUES. AFTER ABOUT 4 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP ALONG WITH THE ABOVE MENTIONED PROBLEMS I STARTED NOTICING A HEAVY VIBRATION AT SLOW SPEEDS. I BOUGHT NEW TIRES, FRONT END ALIGNMENT, AND HAD TIRES BALANCED AS PER MY DEALERS RECOMMENDATION. THEN THE ACCELERATION ISSUES STARTED..... I TOOK IT BACK TO MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY PERFORMED THE "FLOOR MAT FIX". THE VIBRATIONS JUST KEPT GETTING WORSE AND THE CONSTANT VISITS TO MY DEALER AND CALLS TO TOYOTA'S CORPORATE OFFICE ALWAYS ENDING WITH THE "THAT'S NORMAL FOR THESE TRUCKS" SAYING. THE OTHER DAY I WAS RETURNING HOME AND I WAS APPROACHING A CURVE I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR AND DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND SLOWED DOWN TO TAKE THE CURVE, I WENT TO ACCELERATE THROUGH THE CURVE AND MY TRUCK WAS NOT TURNING. THE REAR TIRES WERE LOCKED EVEN THOUGH MY FOOT WAS OFF THE BRAKE WHICH BY THAT HAPPENING I HAD NO CONTROL OVER WHERE I WAS GOING. ... I ENDED UP NOT BEING ABLE TO STEER AROUND THE CURVE AND WENT STRAIGHT THROUGH SOMEONE'S YARD TAKING OUT A MAILBOX AND SLIDING SIDEWAYS INTO A TREE CRUSHING THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY TRUCK. CALLED TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND REPORTED THE LOCKING UP OFF MY REAR END, THE FAILURE OF THE ANTI LOCK SYSTEM, AND THE LOSS OF STEERING. ALL I GOT FOR MY TROUBLES WAS A RUDE "WELL THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO" (AS ALWAYS). I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK. TOYOTA NEEDS TO ADDRESS ALL OF THE ISSUES THAT HAS PLAGUED THE TACOMAS FROM DAY ONE. I HAVE CONTACTED A LAWYER AND HAVE BEEN INSTRUCTED THAT A CLASS ACTION SUIT NEEDS TO BE FILED AGAINST TOYOTA BY ALL OF US. MY EMAIL IS [XXX] IF YOU WANT TO PURSUE THIS WITH ME CONTACT ME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I BOUGHT MY TRUCK USED. A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES I'VE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF SUSPENSION ISSUES. EACH TIME I WAS TOLD THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. MY DRIVE SHAFT WAS REPLACED A YEAR AGO. I NOTICED THE LEAF SPRING STICKING OUT AND BROKEN. I TOOK MY TRUCK STRAIGHT IN. I WAS TOLD THE TRUCK WAS UNDRIVABLE. TOYOTA GAVE ME A RENTAL AND REPLACED THE LEAF SPRINGS. I PICKED MY TRUCK UP THREE DAYS LATER THINKING THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED THEN TWO DAYS AFTER THAT, MY TRUCK FELT LOOSE AND WAS MAKING A POPPING SOUND WHEN I PUT IT INTO REVERSE. IT FELT LIKE THE DRIVE LINE WAS OUT AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO BE LOOKED AT AGAIN. I WAS TOLD MY DRIVELINE U BOLT SNAPPED AND WAS CAUSED BY THE BROKEN LEAF SPRING. TOYOTA WOULDN'T FIX THE DAMAGES BECAUSE THE SHOP THEY RECOMMENDED DIDN'T USE TOYOTA PARTS. MY TRUCK HAD 250000 MILES ON IT. THE DAMAGES TO MY TRUCK WERE ADD DO EXTREME THAT I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO GIVE IT BACK TO THE BANK. THE VIBRATIONS CAUSED TRANNY DAMAGE AND THE AXLES AND DIFFERENTIAL THE FRAME HAD DAMAGE BECAUSE THE LEAF SPRING WAS SHOVED UP INTO IT.(I WASN'T TOLD UNTIL AFTER) NO I'VE GOT NOTHING..... THANKS TOYOTA...... *TR
