When slowing down before making a left turn across traffic, after the vehicle comes to a crawl or stop and then i accelerate to turn left across traffic, the engine hesitates for 1 to 2 seconds before accelerating. i took my 2018 toyota tacoma to my dealer and they were able to replicate the problem. a re-set or upgrade to the computer has not fixed the problem. there is a great deal of discussion of this issue at https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/3rd-gen-stalling-in-intersection-update.459540/.
Two dashboard lights illuminated at the same time: the check engine light and the trac off light. at first i really didn't notice much of a difference but after 2 days i experienced significant power loss. i would pull out into traffic ok until about 20mph then have no power. it crawled while trying to get up to speed. i read on the internet that if you disconnect the battery and open the gas cap the lights would go out and the problem would go away. i did this and it worked; or so i thought. i then left for an hour trip (i know dumb) and within 15 mins the lights came back on and i couldn't get the truck over 60mph on a major highway. i actually stopped at a rest stop and disconnected the battery and removed the gas cap. again this shut off the lights but only for about 5 mins. then the power loss was back. took to my local mechanic who i trust and he said it was a known problem that was something called a technical service bulletin but not yet a recall. apparently the ...
Tacoma started having issues were it was turning off weeks after buying it in the beginning of 2018. took it to shop 4 times and they kept saying nothing was wrong so on the 4thbtime i asked to speak to manager because of the risk this posses.they change gas pump but not sure if this actually fixed issue and i am concerned as there is no remedy in sight.
There have been several times i have gone out to my tacoma that i can hear the fuel pump running on it's own. i heard it running one evening, while no keys were inserted and the truck was locked up. the truck runs rough most of the time and i have problems with it stalling and not wanting to start back up again. it will take 3 to 4 times turning the truck over before it will reluctantly will start up. also the traction control button does not work anymore and the differential button when pushed on does not engage the differential. all of these issues have started at different times. the fuel pump running when no one inside it has just the month been noticed as well as the buttons. the stalling started to be noticed about 4 months ago and i at first thought it was due to it being not broke in or me not giving it enough gas, but it is almost every time now when i back up or go forward it can stall.

Vehicle exhibits a stumbling condition and loss of power when applying heavy throttle to accelerate from a stop or slow vehicle speeds. while driving under moderate throttle at approx. 45-60mph the vehicles engine feels as if it is misfiring and not running on all cylinders with a heavy delay in throttle response when the throttle is applied to increase vehicle speed. issue has been brought up with multiple toyota dealerships and also with toyota corp customer service. there is a software flash to correct this issue but toyota refuses to offer it to customer with manual transmissions because their tsb's do not list that manual trans. there is a 145 page forum thread regarding this issue where customers are resorting to flashing their trucks on their own to avoid the dangerous driving condition these trucks are exhibiting. here is a link to the thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/software-update-for-the-manual.562550/ tsb 1 listing condition: https://toyotatalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/tacoma-t-sb-0062-18.pdf tsb 2 listing condition: https://toyotatalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/tacoma-t-sb-0058-18.pdf

Frame failure due to corrosion: toyota had placed a "warranty enhancement" to replace the frames because they weren't treated for corrosion but with an enhancement, it expires and did so in 2017. i just bought the truck and learned they have a safety recall for corrosion of the spare wheel compartment. this is the same issue. why is the frame not a safety recall?? i have huge holes and large cracks along much of the frame and my mechanic tells me it's unsafe to drive. my fingers go through the side of the frame! my mechanic tells me based on the location of the corrosion in the front of the truck, the entire engine is in danger of falling out!! looking on the internet, this is a huge safety issue for toyota trucks for 2002 and beyond. for many years this hasn't been addressed. the gov needs to demand a safety recall for this truck and all the others affected.
