I WAS PARKED AT A TRAILHEAD, AT ABOUT 3500' ELEVATION. AFTER THE HIKE, AS I MANEUVERED THE TRUCK AROUND THE PARKING LOT, I REALIZED THAT I HAD LITTLE OR NO BRAKING ABILITY!! I SLOWLY DROVE AROUND TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY FLUID ON THE GROUND WHERE THE TRUCK HAD BEEN, AND THERE WAS NO FLUID ON THE GROUND. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ON THE DASHBOARD, AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING INDICATED ANY TROUBLE WITH THE BRAKES. HOWEVER, I DISCOVERED, AS I CONTINUED TO DRIVE HOME, THAT THE BRAKES HAD FAILED AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE TRUCK WITH THEM. THE TRUCK HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR EXAMINATION AND REPAIR. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER. THE REPLACEMENT MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER ALSO FAILED!! (DURING TESTING, NOT WHILE DRIVING.) THE THIRD MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER WAS PUT IN, AND SEEMS TO BE FINE NOW. DESPITE DETAILED CORRESPONDENCE TO THEM, TOYOTA CORPORATE FAILED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, AND REFUSED TO DISCUSS COMPENSATION. THEY ALSO DID NOT COMMUNICATE WITH THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT OUR CORRESPONDENCE. FORTUNATELY, THE DEALERSHIP TOOK VERY GOOD CARE OF US.

I CALLED MY TOYOTA DEALER AUTO NATION AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SUBJECT IS NOT A OFFICIAL BUT A INTERIM NOTICE AND I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN ITS A RECALL. IS THIS CORRECT AND HOW CAN THEY BE ALLOWED TO OPERATE LIKE THIS.

2011 TOYOTA TACOMA EXPERIENCES SPARK KNOCK (DETONATION). SAME SYMTOMS AS IN T-SB-0044-14. ALSO, THE 2011 ENGINE IS THE SAME ENGINE THAT IS IN THE 2012 VEHICLE COVERED BY T-SB-0044-14. SO WHY IS THE 2011 MODEL NOT COVERED BY T-SB-0044-14? I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE PROGRAM AT THE LOCAL DEALER IN JANUARY 2014.

TOYOTA HAS A RECALL ON 2005 TO 2011 TACOMA'S FOR REAR LEAF SPRINGS RUSTING OUT AND BREAKING. WHEN I CHECKED WITH THEM THEY SAID MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. HOW CAN THAT BE. I HAVE A 2011 TACOMA AND MY REAR LEAF SPRINGS ARE RUSTED AND NOW HAVE BROKEN. ONLY 51000 MILES ON THE TRUCK. WHAT DOES MY VIN NUMBER HAVE TO DO WITH WHAT THE ACTUAL PROBLEM IS. THEY HAVE STATED THAT THESE VEHICLES HAVE A PROBLEM WITH RUST AND BREAKAGE OF REAR LEAF SPRINGS THAT COULD CAUSE THE BROKEN PIECE OF SPRING HITTING THE GAS TANK. I FEEL BECAUSE MY TRUCK IS IN THE DATE SPECIFIED IT SHOULD BE COVERED. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME HERE.

A RECALL FOR DEFECTIVE LEAF SPRINGS FOR THIS VEHICLE WAS ISSUED ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2014. THE WEBSITE SHOWS BEING UPDATED AS OF MAY 29, 2015 AND LISTS THE RECALL AS INCOMPLETE. TOYOTA HAS NOT YET FORMULATED A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. I DO NOT FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT COULD POTENTIALLY CATCH FIRE DUE TO THIS DEFECT WHILE TOYOTA DRAGS THEIR FEET COMING UP WITH A FIX. TOYOTA SHOULD BE PRESSED FOR A SOLUTION NOW.
