New automatic transmission tsb to now include hybrid.

[TacoFreak]

Mine was right at the tail end. So annoying. I wonder if some have it and some don’t or if they are all shitty on some level.

I think the VIN range includes the trucks Toyota's data show as potentially affected. If the majority of the trucks in those ranges were going to fail I think there would be a recall.

Most us will probably be fine, but it still makes you question your truck. But like @maxx075 says, there isn't much that we can do until one or more solenoid codes are stored. Taking your truck to the dealer without the codes will accomplish nothing.

Yup. True. Life goes on. Like I said, I got 125K miles warranty.

My dealer gives their buyers a lifetime warranty on the entire hybrid system. I wonder if they are starting to consider rethinking that about now.

Well, I don't have the VIN for my first truck. It had an 08/24 build date, but that's more of an assembly date. The transmissions are obviously built before that, probably weeks in advance. I wonder how far out the timeline extends now?

I don't think the transmission is considered a hybrid part. Besides, the Toyota warranty is 10 years/150,000 miles, so it seems the dealer is pretty safe in providing that warranty coverage.

My VIN is 004028, so it appears that I'm screwed as well. I have less than 500 miles on the truck. I can't drive much at all as I'm recovering from a knee replacement.

Which facebook group? I'd like to join.

so my question is are all the solenoids total shit, or do the solenoids fail as a result of debris from the failing transmission?

Debris is wiping the solenoids out

Think of your trans as a line of window panes lined along a track. The casting debris is a baseball thrown directly in the middle of those panes along the track.

Damn...my Pro ends in 001897 so it seems I'm also not in the clear...
I haven't had a single issue with my transmission yet and hoping I won't, but it definitely makes me a bit uneasy on long roadtrips lol.

This is the number I called. Long story short, they gave me a case number but there is nothing that can be done until your truck throws a code.

I just ran the kissmygrits sheet and there are 345 hybrids sitting on the lots right now that are affected. Total of all trucks is 5080.
