2016 TOYOTA TACOMA Complaints

CHIRPING NOISE COMES AND GOES. VERY LOUD. ALSO A CONSTANT CLICKING. ANYTHING THAT MAKES NOISE LIKE THAT WILL FAIL SOON. ALSO HAD A GRINDING NOISE WHILE IN FOUR WHEEL DRIVE ON BEACH AND TRUCK STARTED TO LOSE POWER.GRINDING WENT AWAY BUT HAPPENS OFTEN.

I TOOK MY TACOMA TO HEADQUARTER TOYOTA IN MIAMI FLORIDA, REASON WAS FOR THE RECALL ISSUED ON THE 4/27/17 THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME AS THE RECALL "DONE" WHEN I INSPECT THE VEHICLE ITS STILL LEAKING DIF FLUID AND I CALL THE SERVICE ADVISER AND HE TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT PERFORMED THE RECALL B/C THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS...... SO AT THIS POINT YOU LET ME KEEP MY CAR WITHOUT LETTING ME KNOW THAT NO PARTS WERE CHANGED... CMON TOYOTA...

THE DIFFERENTIAL NEEDED REPLACEMENT AT <10,000 DUE TO A LOUD HOWLING NOISE WHEN CRUISING AT 55 MPH. THE NOISE WAS NOTED WHEN I FIRST PICKED UP THE VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP, BUT THE VOLUME GOT MUCH LOUDER OVER TIME. EVEN MY 4 YEAR OLD CHILD ASKED, "WHAT'S THAT SOUND?" THE SERVICE RECORDS NOTED METAL "SILVER SHAVINGS" WERE FOUND IN THE DIFFERENTIAL. EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE DIFFERENTIAL, THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGE IN THE HOWLING SOUND AT 55 MPH. I'M CONCERNED THE DIFFERENTIAL IS DEFECTIVE. MANY OTHER TACOMA OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOM. [HTTPS://WWW.TACOMAWORLD.COM/THREADS/3RD-GEN-POLL-REAR-END-NOISE-HOWLING-WHEN-FEATHERING-THROTTLE.442341/] TO MY KNOWLEDGE, NO ONE HAS REPORTED A SUCCESSFUL FIX.

VEHICLE IS PRODUCING A HOWL DURING THROTTLE FEATHERING AT 50-60MPH. THE SOUND IS COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE BUT TOYOTA HAS CHARACTERIZED AS "NORMAL OPERATION". I HAVE TEST DRIVEN OTHER TACOMA VEHICLES OF THE SAME YEAR BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE SOUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED HESITATION AND THE ENGINE DE-POWERING. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT ONCE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BEFORE THE VEHICLE RECOGNIZED THE SPEED THE SOFTWARE CAUSED THE ENGINE TO DE-POWER FOR INTERVALS OF ONE TO TWO SECONDS BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD OPERATE NORMALLY. A REMEDY WAS NOT DISCLOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10,005.

REAR END DIFFERENTIAL GEAR HOWLING FROM 52-59MPH - ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS. TOYOTA SAYS IT IS 'NORMAL' HOWEVER IT ONLY DOES IT ON A FEW VEHICLES.

2016 TOYOTA TACOMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO HEADLIGHTS FAILURE TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE NIGHT LIGHTING. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE LIGHTING WAS ESPECIALLY POOR DURING RAIN OR SNOW. THE DEALER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THE CONSUMER FEELS THE STANDARDS FOR THE HEADLIGHTS SHOULD BE REVIEWED. *JS

HAVE A SERIOUS VIBRATION IN THE TRANSMISSION. HAVE TOOK THE TRUCK IN 4 TIMES THEY DID THE UPGRADE ON THE COMPUTER IT DID HELP. NOW THE PROBLEM IS BACK THEY HAVE NO ANSWER'S FOR ME. GOT TOLD BY 50,000 MILES IT SHOULD WORK ITSELF OUT. CALLED TOYOTA TO COMPLAIN THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS. I GOT TOLD THEY HAVE NO ANSWER'S HOW HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MY COMPLAINT IS THEY HAVE ISSUES WITH THE 2016 AND 2017.THEY ARE NOT FIXING THEM BUT YET STILL RIPPING PEOPLE OFF BUY SELLING TRUCKS WITH A MAJOR PROBLEM. I USE TO LOVE MY TOYOTA BUT NOW I'M DONE AND WILL NEVER BUY ONE AGAIN SINCE THEY DON'T BACK THEM UP ANYMORE AND RIP PEOPLE OFF.

IT COST ME $850.00 BECAUSE TOYOTA USED SOY BASED WIRING ON MY VEHICLE. A RAT CHEWED WIRES UNDER THE HOOD CAUSING THIS DAMAGE. THERE ARE CLASS ACTION SUITS AGAINST TOYOTA FOR THIS PROBLEM.
