The A/C Button Light was flashing. It did it for a couple of weeks, and then when the flashing started the A/C would stop. I had to help them diagnose by using (2) autoforum feedback suggestions. The flashing light was diagnostic, but the Toyota AutoNation dealership did not want to make the diagnosis. I had to use the autoforum feedback and create an e-mail and send it to the service writer to start a written record of the bullshit. The problem was intermittent at first and they would not address it because they couldn't re-create it. The problem arrived 2 months before the warranty ran out - and then it turned out that the A/C compressor had failed along with the sensor. They had to get parts from a dealership in Jacksonville, that dragged the mess out for another 3 days. I am so grateful for autoforums and e-mail to stop the utter rape that dealerships try to get away with.

Shifter occasionally doesn’t go all the way to desired gear, so if looking for ‘D’ the shifter is in the right place but ‘D’ doesn’t appear on instrument panel. When this happens top gear is locked out and it may throw a code. Tech lubed the linkage but still occurs occasionally. Workaround is to move shifter through all positions several times to loosen it from sticking.

Neutral safety switch was replaced. Lubing it previously only ‘fixed’ the sticking issue for one month, so dealer recommended replacement. I was told this a common issue, with symptoms being very sticky movement of the shifter, and it’s location not matching with what gear the dash display indicated. So far so good since the replacement.

Dealer replaced defective TPMS sensor Excessive wind noise when driving in high crosswind. Loud, and screeching like a kazoo. Toyota has a TSB addressing this problem, but the dealer did not want to fix it. After a "intense discussion" they agreed to replace the seal on the drivers door with the new TSB version, but declined to replace the passenger door seal. Even though the TSB is for both doors! TPMS light on the dash randomly illuminates (indicating a problem) when there is no problem. Because the light was not lit when I visited the dealer they said there was nothing they could do to repair it.

After having my truck into the Toyota dealership for frame inspection and them cleaning it inspecting it and applying rust prevention coating and telling me it was fine. One year later two major holes in the frame one on either side. Going right to the top at Toyota Canada, they refused to repair my truck, because the truck was purchased in the USA and brought to Canada. That was Canada's excuse. Toyota USA said the truck was now in Canada and they would not fix. After being a loyal Toyota customer for over 36 years, I tell them goodbye. Never heard of a truck having a Nationality Problem when trying to get it fixed. Always thought a Toyota was just a Toyota. But I guess not. If a Tacoma frame hasn't already been fixed....avoid it like the plague.
