TSB: 2024 Tacoma Transmission Failures Issue & Replacement (9/9/24). Updated w/ VIN Lookup Tool

[Gfenza89]

tankk69 - I am new to this forum but had my transmission go out at 2500 mi. In looking at an earlier TSB the first letters were different in some of the affected VIN's. The numbers varied with those first letters as well. Bottom line, my impression is the whole string is important. BTW it took a little over a month to get my rig back up and running. With over 10K on it, the mileage is better and it works as expected.

What was yours doing before and during its failure? Can you go into detail please to help the folks on this forum who are going through this? Check engine light on ? Thank you!

My TH falls within the range.. 3k miles, the only weird thing is that the first cold shift of the day, 1st-2nd gear, is harsh. All other shifts are fine.

That is what mine has started doing most days now too. I can live with that but it does make you wonder where this road is headed.

@Gfenza89 Yep - I have had trucks which fell under several of them. I just didn't think that they would still be building trucks with transmissions in the TSB range. Isn't that kind of nuts? Maybe I didn't understand the situation and I don't think @Delta1Seven's dealer is being very helpful, for whatever reason. If it was me, I would at least want more info from the dealer.

BTW - yesterday my truck shifted just like normal. Did your issues come and go like that?

thanks for the idea. I will ask for more info. All they told me was that it was "in allocation" which they claimed doesn't have an accurate ETA. I assume this means pre/in production?

I find it weird that the VIN number is so low if the current trucks are higher. (Assuming VINS are sequential?)

EDIT: I'm new to "ordering" a tacoma. What exactly should I be asking? They have told me the ETA is 11/4 but then in the next breath they claim it's in allocation and the ETA isn't accurate. I feel like the salesman doesn't have a clue, and he is trying hard to get me into a limited on their lot, but I want a OR premium lol

Interestingly, the VIN i was giving by my dealer of a TRD OR that is in allocation, is not on your list despite it falling into the TSB range. Does that make sense?

Any other symptoms?

What was the mileage when it failed?
