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

[TacoFreak]

@Plumbers 1st Taco Good to hear that the TSB is working and your truck is getting repaired. The TSB might be why Toyota is now able to source replacement transmissions more quickly and not have the long waits.

If Toyota is right about the VINs that are affected, you should be set with a reliable new transmission. That sounds like good progress to me.

Well, dropped it off yesterday again after limping it along for about 15 miles last week stuck in 6th gear. They found a code P074571 for a pressure control solenoid. They called Toyota and a new transmission and torque converter is on the way from Chicago. I was told Toyota forgot to include that particular code in the TSB. Glad it is finally getting fixed. 3/24 build. 3400 miles.

This is getting old hearing this stuff thinking I’m next or someone else….common Toyota replace the Dam transmissions on all the truck that fall into that category…. Completely unfair to us loyal customers. We expect better when buying Toyota

Particularly your truck, which has some shift weirdness as I recall. Do you know for sure that your truck doesn't have any of the codes in the TSB?

No check engine light on, so I guess the trucks feels there’s nothing wrong.

Mine never had the check engine light come on. Always stored codes, along with the freeze frame data they can pull when the faults occurred.

So the codes were in the computer but no check engine light and the truck went into limp mode? I’m understanding it this way correct?

@Gfenza89 You might want to pull the codes before you talk to your dealer. Your Taco could have stored them and not set the check engine light like happened on @Plumbers 1st Taco truck. That way they can't jerk you around and say there were no codes.

Nope - only Toyota knows and they ain't talking.

But I think it is still a pretty small number, even if you are included in the TSB. If your truck is currently working fine I say drive it, enjoy it and worry about it if it breaks.

Thanks
