RECALL for Brake Hose Issue: 2024 Tacoma 4WD 4-wheel drive models w/ 16-inch brakes and 17-inch Toyota wheels

[bking]

I called my dealership yesterday (Feb. 10, '25) and the service advisor told me that there wouldn't be a fix until Q2 of 2025.
In the meantime, I've got a handful of trips planned to take the truck on trails here in Michigan, so if i lose a brake line from some ice, I'll just have it towed and cross my fingers they provide an adequate loaner lol

I think you’ll be fine. I’ve been in some nasty stuff and never had a problem at this point. I think it’s probably an extreme example

Yea really poor design from the start. I have a Coast to Coast and back run starting the first of August. Hope they get this squared away before then.

So long as that coast to coast trip isn’t in deep mud, you should be good. Recall specifically mention certain off-road conditions. Like I said, I’ve been in some sketchy places and in some mud and never had an issue.

Not mud and ice only, driving up and down gravel roads here the back of the rims on all vehicles build up with fine dust packs in like cement, and parkinsons on the steering wheel sets in, need to clean often

That's the reason the dealer won't give me my 2024 OffRoad.... I have to wait until April or June....

I have a manual Off-road, app said that there is a recall for it but the dealership told me that it's not applicable... I am guessing it's because they really haven't gotten any directions from Toyota.
