TSB: Hybrid Tacoma Now Included in Transmission Failure Issues & Replacement (October 2024)

[TacoFreak]

It just started right? I mean take it in after a couple week and see if codes thrown and just get the issue documented

I will check the codes myself and take it to the dealer if it throws any of the solenoid codes.

Other than that there really isn't anything to do, because until then Toyota won't do anything.

I don’t understand why they can’t just drop the transmission pan on our vin numbered trucks and inspect for debris…. Then replace the effected units. It wouldn’t cost them much of anything and it would us peace of mind, especially for those that don’t have any issues, and for guys like us I can guarantee there’s debris floating around. It prob takes a few hundred miles for the debris to reach the solenoids and start messing them up

@Gfenza89 I have thought the same thing. I think that Toyota is just in damage control mode at this point, and only dealing with the failed transmissions.

I don't know if they will move on to finding a way to show people that their trucks are fine, but I am not holding my breath. What we have now might be their only response.

How they approach this will be the key to how long I keep my truck. I love it, but unless I can gain confidence that I can trust it, I will feel forced to move on.

Good luck with your truck!

Really sad this is… I’m holding on to my regardless. I’m trying to keep the faith they’ll do the right thing but ya never know. Good luck to you as well, we’ll just continue to monitor the situation on here and through Toyota tsb bulletins

Not much else we can do - I will talk to my dealer but Toyota has tied their hands.
