Toyota recall (transfer case)hoover Toyota told me June 14 I could not have my truck because of recall (taken in for 20,000 oil change and transmission tsb),still no fix date and canceling vacation trips because lack of kayak and bike carriers. I'm sure this will reduce the resale (I've had 4 Toyota, probably my last.
My Toyota Tacoma 2016 6 speed automatic transmission was one quart low of atf from the factory.this could have been avoided if the dealer would have performed an pdi like they are required to do.
I took my Tacoma with 15619 miles on the odometer in for the leaking differential check on May 2, 2017 at a Toyota dealer. They performed the Toyota specified recall by checking for leaks and apparently found none and re tightened the fasteners. On June 27 I was checking the Tacoma prior to our leaving on vacation and noticed seepage on the rear differential in 3 locations. I emailed Toyota with my concern. I informed them I would be taking my Tacoma to the dealer on June 28, 2017 to have it looked at. I took the Tacoma on June 28, 2017 to 2ndtoyota dealer. I informed the service advisor of my concern with the differential. The master tech looked at it. I followed up with Toyota corporate by phone informed them of my concerns and was advised to speak with the service mgr. And I did. After the tech had a chance to look at the Tacoma I was advised that I would need to have the rear differential replaced. The service mgr. Told me that they would order the parts to repair my Tacoma and I could have use of a truck on loan from the dealership until my Tacoma could be repaired. I returned from vacation my truck was not repaired was told Toyota was having some type of issue because 1st dealer had all ready performed the recall. However, the Tacoma begin leaking and the differential was making a loud noise after the recall was performed initially. I am confused as it still should be a warranty covered issue even if another dealer had all ready did a recall. The service advisor agreed and they are still trying to get the truck repaired. It is my contention that the 1st dealer did the recall correctly and the differential failed because of substandard parts or design after the first recall was done. My concern is that my Tacoma is potentially a risk of crash as noted in the official Toyota recall. My vehicle has been at the dealer since June 28th 2017 or 15 days and counting.

NHTSA recall number 17V285 I took my truck to the dealership for this safety recall on May 9, 2017. Toyota says this problem has a remedy, but my dealer says the parts are not available. NHTSA website says to file a complaint if repairs are not made in a timely manner. I have been without the use of this vehicle for two months, how long is considered "timely"?

Now, they still have no eta on the part and someone was told beginning of 2018. I need the truck, as I am in the process of moving. I spoke with the dealership and Toyota corporate who both said, "we don't know".

I took my Tacoma to the dealer for regular oil/service, I was advised of a safety related recall (H0G) they advised me not to drive it until corrected, gave me a "loaner". I've yet to get an assessment and return date. The dealership seems to not be getting information from the corporate office. I contacted the corporate office to ask what my options were. (refund, replacement, etc) I told them I was aware of a "lemon law". the rep got kind of short with me, said I would be hearing from their legal dept. After 2 weeks no response, I called back. They said it could be 30-45 days before getting a response. Concerns I have are: 1) my vehicle just setting there not being driven developing more problems I'll have to deal with. 2) a "black mark" on its resale value. 3) Toyota trying to force me into a "low ball" settlement. The dealer has been fair as possible so far but they seem to be in a void regarding the recall from their corporate office. I almost have the vehicle paid off and not looking forward starting over or getting involved in a legal proceeding. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Rear differential gasket leaks. Couldnt fix it when I went in because they didnt have parts. Refused to give me a rental truck. Told me I needed to prove I owned a business. They also wanted to keep my vehicle but I have no other means to get to work. And they didnt know how long it was going to take to get the parts. Told me 8 plus weeks to get a gasket.
Took my car to the dealer, marietta Toyota, for service and it was impounded on May 31, 2017 due to safety recall of rear differential leak. I was informed at that time that the parts to fix the issue would not be available for at least two months. It has now been a month and I would like some information on what action I can take.
Toyota recalled my 2016 Tacoma for rear differential leak safety recall. After dropping my truck off today they said they would be able to repair it if they get the parts from Toyota, which they said could take months. My question is, why should they inconvenience me for months to repair my vehicle. Toyota required me to leave my vehicle at the dealership because it is a safety recall. They did provide me with a rental car, which does me no good because I bought a truck and I need a truck. At the dealership at vineland NJ they already had 15 Tacoma's in the back lot. The manager told me they would be fixed on a first come first serve basis. He said he had a small dealership and he wasn't sure how fast he could get parts because there were 288,000 Tacoma's involved. I am out of a truck for god knows how long.
Took my Toyota for normal service and they indicate a recall for the rear differential. They said it would be repaired within a day. It has been 12 days and Toyota said they do not when they will get parts or when they will fix it. They said it could be a month or more. I asked for an update today and they said it could be months.
On May 4,2017 took vehicle in for 15K service though it only had 11K miles.was advised there was a recall and did I want it checked, "would only be a couple hrs." It has been at the dealerships parking lot for two (2) months, exposed to temperatures of 100 plus. I had planned to keep this vehicle for a long time, kept it garaged when not in use etc. Now after this recall and having had other issues in October 2016 such as "down level software", (I think it was corrected), attached work order, I don't really trust this vehicle as to "what else was missed on the plant floor" that I will be paying for in the future?? as far as I'm concerned Toyota mtrs. Corp. Sold me a defective vehicle.
