Defect Description:
VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
I’m filing this complaint regarding a known issue with the A/C evaporator core on my Toyota Tacoma (3rd generation). The evaporator core has prematurely failed, leading to a complete loss of air conditioning and, more importantly, reduced defrosting and defogging capabilities that directly affect visibility and driver safety. This issue is widespread and well-documented among Tacoma owners, and Toyota has issued TSB T-SB-0145-20, acknowledging that corrosion in the evaporator core leads to refrigerant leakage. Despite the known defect, Toyota has not issued a recall and is charging owners thousands of dollars to repair a part that is failing far earlier than expected. In my case, the system began blowing only warm air, and the defroster can no longer clear moisture from the windshield, which is a serious safety issue in humid or cold conditions. This should be treated as a systemic defect, not regular wear and tear. Toyota needs to be held accountable for this manufacturing flaw, which affects safety-critical components like the defroster and visibility systems.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
My check engine light came on when I was traveling in Oregon. I didn't notice any major changes in my vehicle's performance. Drove it all the way back to Colorado without issues. It went off and came back on several times. I replaced the cabin air filter, engine air filter and put fuel injector cleaner in the vehicle. Finally I took it in to the Toyota dealership to get an oil change and then the check engine light came back on. I paid for them to do a diagnostic test and they stated they were almost certain it was the 2nd fuel injector running rich. Brought it back a week later for the repair. Fyi...I was still getting 20 mpg in fuel and I wasn't noticing anything major in performance. They replaced the fuel injector and then the check engine light came back on with a different code. They are now running "another" more expensive diagnostic test and I still don't have my truck. They are saying it could be the 2nd cylinder or the engine and claiming it has 150,000 miles so I should expect these issues (and conveniently my warranty has run out).

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I have the exact same issues as the big recall done with the Toyotas for the brake master cylinder. My Tacoma is leaking brake fluid from the inside of the cabin! I contacted Toyota showed the pictures and evidence, I have the exact same issue as all the other trucks with the recall, Toyota refused to help me fix my truck, even tho everything is exactly the same. They argued that because the date my truck was assembled is why they wouldn’t help. They cannot track which parts are used for which dates! It’s not fair, they know this is a huge problem which is why they had a large recall for the Tacomas. My truck barely had 55k miles on it, I shouldn’t be having brake master cylinder issues at this mileage, it’s a 2019, it’s way too new for these problems! This should be covered under the recall. It’s a faulty seal from the inside of the brake master cylinder. Toyota refuses to help or fix it. This is a severe safety issue and concern, I could have crashed or killed myself. My warranty just expired in December. This master cylinder is only made by Toyota and it’s a $1600 part. This should all be covered by Toyota under the recall for safety! This is now going to cost me around $2,000 to fix out of my pocket, all for my own safety. My truck sat for 2-3 weeks waiting for Toyota all for them to deny helping me.

Defect Description:
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
The transmission cooling line in my 2019 Toyota Tacoma was never installed by an authorized repair shop following an accident. This critical component failure led to the transmission failing just 1.5 hours after I retrieved the vehicle from the shop. My safety was compromised, as the failure occurred while driving at highway speeds, without any warning lights or messages indicating an issue. The failure has been confirmed by the dealership (MotorWorld Toyota) currently inspecting my vehicle. The shop responsible for the initial repairs has taken liability for missing the installation of the transmission cooling line. My insurance company (GEICO) has been involved but is delaying total loss consideration. No warning lamps or messages appeared before or after the transmission failure, which is highly suspicious. This negligence has caused severe damage to a vital component of my vehicle, and I question the overall integrity of the repairs.

Potential Consequences:
the differential skid plate was manufactured in a way that one of the brackets make contact with the fuel tank of the truck. It rubs and compromises the integrity of the tank. Possibly leading to a puncture and leak. I brought it to the attention of the manufacturer, and they have stated that they received several complaints from customers and redesigned the skid plate to prevent this. However they refused to replace mine and others, they also have taken NO steps to notify owners of this safety hazard.
