    I took my 2019 tacoma sr5 to headquater toyota miami today. I told them that my truck vibrate when braking between 25 to 15 mph. They inspected my truck and told me they felt the vibration so they called the corporate and the mechanic was told to test drive a similar truck. The mechanic told me that it does the same thing and to wait for a maybe recall. Next week i'm taking my truck to another dealer.

    Having issue with the truck 'lurching and jerking" with rpms fluctuationing between 500 and 1000. This happens primarily in reverse with your foot on the brake with steady prussure. I had an uncomfortable incident with a woman in the supermarket parking lot. She saw that i had stopped to let her pass behind me when the truck took a short hop backwards. She was not happy. She took my plate # and said that she was…

    Very loud whine from rear differential while driving at various speeds. Most notably between speeds of 50-60 mph. This issues has been documented with previous year models of the same vehicle. However, the problem has not been fixed by the manufacturer with subsequent model years.

    For no reason at all my 2019 toyota tacoma sr5 stalled and displayed a "high transmission temp warning". This occurred when picking up my child from school. The truck would not shift and the breaks did not function i had to use ebrake to not hit other vehicles, and was stuck in the middle of the school parking lot with my two young children in az heat. I waited awhile after turning the truck off and shifting to park…

    This tacoma sr5 is brand new, about 4700 miles on it so far. Noticing a lot of hesitation between the 35-60 mph. After weeks of taking the vehicle back to savannah toyota, its the torque converter. The vehicle has slow pick up and hard acceleration from a stop to position. Toyota says it's normal, but several other owners are having the same problem. I have attached the service order to the complaint.

    While driving on cruise control the engine shifts to a higher gear for no reason resulting in higher gas usage. I also noticed while having the radar on while on adaptive cruise control, the vehicle will automatically "slam" the brakes for no reason resulting me in a bad situation due to traffic. The system engages the brakes for no reason even though the vehicle that the system is detecting is not even close to me…

    After purchasing a 2019 tacoma trd off-road it developed a rubbing noise. My first two complaints were brushed off. On my third complaint i was informed of a tsb related to bad axles. The tsb doesn't pertain to the trd trims but only the sr5 and lower. The axles have been replaced twice and still have noise. The truck has been in the shop since they started repairs. The third axle has been ordered. The mechanics…

The second time i brought it to the dealership they said they had to shave the front rotors and sand the brake pads. The third time i brought it to the dealership…
