POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
I bought a 2024 Tacoma TRD Off Road Premium Package through MAS ( Military Auto Source ). I picked the vehicle up from the Bremerhaven port in Germany on 08 July 2024 it was missing the back bed charging adapter box but MAS said they would cover the cost in writing to fix no big deal and I drove it back to Weiden Germany. Today 09 July 2024 I lost the ability to shift into 2nd, 4th, and 6th gear. There is only 2 of these vehicles in the country of germany right now. The vehicle has approximately 735 Km on it. It probably would have happen early had i been shifting more but the majority of my first in it was on the Autobaun in 6th gear going roughly 130 Km most of the way with no down shifting or ciry driving. The vehicle has not yet been inspected by a toyota tech due to the vehicle not being produced in Germany but it doesnt take a genius to look up the issue your having and see the exact thing from multiple other Toyota owners. Toyota would be best to buy this vehicle back and reach out to me. Vin [XXX] Below is the customer care email i requested be sent with my reference number and case number.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
While pulling out of my drive way I noticed when I pressed the gas pedal my truck barely moved, it felt like it was in neutral. I pressed the gas pedal further and it started to move but the RPMs were around 6000 RPM. I then pulled to the side of the road and tried shifting it into different modes, cycling through manual and automatic, but still nothing. I then noticed that while in manual mode the display read “S6”. Which I deduced meant sixth gear. Not wanting to be late for work I just pressed on the gas pedal till the truck got moving and drove the 18 miles to work in sixth gear. After returning to my truck after work, I started it up and it worked fine. A few days later I reported it to the dealer and they had me bring it in for a diagnosis. A day later they reported to me that the truck experienced a transmission failure and would have to be replaced. As of right now I am still waiting to hear when the replacement transmission will arrive. The maintenance advisor stated he could not give me a time frame for the parts to arrive or when the work would be completed.

Brand new 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road automatic 2700 miles Truck is two weeks old The Toyota dealership called and reported that the entire transmission needed to replaced after being at the Toyota dealership for a week. Yes it is available for inspection. Toyota tech said that there are no spare transmissions in the U.S. and that it could take 3 months or longer to replace. Toyota tech found metal shavings in transmission fluid. Truck is entirely stock from factory with no customizations. Truck started shifting hard between a few gears and then got stuck in a higher gear and would not move forward even with accelerator to the floor. This was in the middle of the road with multiple vehicles behind me. I am not aware if anyone other than Toyota technicians have inspected the vehicle. There were no warnings, messages, or dashboard lights illuminated when this happened. Toyota dealership also refused to supply a rental car in the meantime while truck is being fixed. I am in the military and have no means to provide transportation to myself or family unless I pay out of pocket.

Potential Consequences:
I’ve only had the vehicle about a month with only 1245 miles on it. I was leaving a parking lot and pulled out on the road and the vehicle shifted in neutral after a minute or so the vehicle then slammed back into gear. It did this 2 or 3 times. I pulled into a gas station turned the vehicle off and waited a few minutes. I turned the vehicle back on backed out and preceded to drive when the same issue happened again. But now the vehicle would not shift into other gears. This time the check engine light came on with 3 reported errors 1. Advanced ultrasonic detecting and ranging system malfunction. 2. Drive-start control system malfunction. 3. Check engine light stating malfunction in the electronic control of the engine, throttle, or automatic transmission has been detected. I was only about a mile or 2 from a Toyota dealership and was able to limp the truck to the dealership. The dealership informed me today [XXX], that it will need a new transmission and that there were similar issues on new Tacomas across the US. There were no prior signs of any issues prior to the transmission failure. This happened on a roadway with traffic that comes in both directions. Thanks goodness this didn’t cause an accident has it happened out of the blue. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I was only about a mile or 2 from a Toyota dealership and was able to limp the truck to the dealership. The dealership informed me today [XXX], that it will need a new transmission and that there were similar issues on new Tacomas across the US. There were no prior signs of any issues prior to the transmission failure. This happened on a roadway with traffic that comes in both directions. Thanks goodness this didn’t cause an accident has it happened out of the blue. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
