2019 Toyota Tacoma Power Train

Occasionally, my Tacoma jerk at lower speeds of 20 to 5 mph. Also, random I hear a click sound on brake.

A full replacement of the cylinder 1 head and valves at only 60,000 miles, repair estimate of $8000

TRUCK STARTING LUNGE FORWARD WHILE IN HIGHWAY GOING SPEED LIMIT ALMOST LIKE IT'S SLIPPING GEARS

II HAVE A 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I AM EXPERIENCING A RATTLING NOISE FROM THE TRANSMISSION WHENEVER YOU ARE ROLLING FROM A LOW SPEED IN NEUTRAL. YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RATTLE FROM THE TRANSMISSION INTENSIFY IF EVER YOU ARE ROLLING THROUGH A SPEED BUMP AT LOW SPEEDS IN NEUTRAL.

ACCELERATION IS OFTEN HESITANT AND JERKY. WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP,TURNING OR DRIVING , I WILL PUSH THE GAS TO ACCELERATE BUT THE TRUCK TAKES ABOUT 2 SECONDS TO FINALLY MOVE. THE DEALERSHIP STATED IT WAS THE TRACTION CONTROL BECAUSE I TURN TOO FAST. WHEN ASKED ABOUT WHY IT HESITATES TO ACCELERATE WHEN AT A STOP OR WHEN I'M DRIVING STRAIGHT, THEY STATED THEY DIDN'T KNOW BUT IT WASN'T AN ISSUE SINCE THEIR MECHANICALS COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I DON'T FEEL CONFIDENT OR SAFE IN THIS TRUCK. *TR

PURCHASED MY VEHICLE ON 10/19/19. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, I BEGAN EXPERIENCING THE FOLLOWING: IN THE DRIVE MODE, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT DOWN-SHIFT PROPERLY (A LAG) TO LOWER GEARS WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM HIGHER SPEEDS(50-60 MPH) TO LOWER SPEEDS (30-40 MPH). IT STAYS IN 5TH OR 6TH GEAR TOO LONG, CAUSING THE TRUCK/TRANSMISSION TO "LUG" DOWN WITH SOME ENGINE "MISSING" BEFORE IT FINALLY DOWNSHIFTS AUTOMATICALLY. I HAVE TO DRIVE IN THE SPORT MODE AND MANUALLY SHIFT GEARS REGULARLY TO CIRCUMVENT THIS PROBLEM. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT POINTS ARE NOT SET CORRECTLY, AND/OR THE TRANSMISSION TORQUE CONVERTER STAYS ENGAGED/LOCKED IN TOO LONG AT HIGHER GEARS WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO LOWER SPEEDS. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO TRANSMISSION BEARING FAILURES AND SAFETY PROBLEMS IF THE TRANSMISSION-ENGINE STARTS TO STALL/CUT OUT. TOYOTA CORPORATE HAS BEEN NON-RESPONSIVE TO MY COMPLAINT SUBMITTED.

I TOOK MY 2019 TACOMA SR5 TO HEADQUATER TOYOTA MIAMI TODAY. I TOLD THEM THAT MY TRUCK VIBRATE WHEN BRAKING BETWEEN 25 TO 15 MPH. THEY INSPECTED MY TRUCK AND TOLD ME THEY FELT THE VIBRATION SO THEY CALLED THE CORPORATE AND THE MECHANIC WAS TOLD TO TEST DRIVE A SIMILAR TRUCK. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT DOES THE SAME THING AND TO WAIT FOR A MAYBE RECALL. NEXT WEEK I'M TAKING MY TRUCK TO ANOTHER DEALER.

VERY LOUD WHINE FROM REAR DIFFERENTIAL WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. MOST NOTABLY BETWEEN SPEEDS OF 50-60 MPH. THIS ISSUES HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED WITH PREVIOUS YEAR MODELS OF THE SAME VEHICLE. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN FIXED BY THE MANUFACTURER WITH SUBSEQUENT MODEL YEARS.

2019 TACOMA SPORT, TRANSMISSION JUDDER, VIBRATE ON SLOWING DOWN AND LIGHT ACCELERATION ON STEP INCLINE ON TOWN OR HIGHWAY TOYOTA DEALER, TOYOTA OF OLYMPIA IN WASHINGTON SAYS IT'S NORMAL THAT WORKS AS DESIGNED. THIS CAN'T BE NORMAL GETTING WORSE THE MORE I DRIVE ONLY 3300 MILES PLS HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM MORE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU

CLUTCH PEDAL MAKES A FAIRLY LOUD CREAKING NOISE UPON RELEASE IN THE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRIM. ONCE THE TRUCK IS WARMED UP AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN A LITTLE, WHILE SHIFTING GEARS AND RELEASING THE CLUTCH, THE PEDAL CREAKS THE FULL LENGTH OF MOTION FROM BOTTOM TO TOP EVERY SINGLE PRESS OF THE PEDAL. PREVIOUS YEARS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND IT IS COVERED BY T-SB-0186-12 R2.

THIS TACOMA SR5 IS BRAND NEW, ABOUT 400 MILES ON IT SO FAR. NOTICING A LOT OF HUNTING BY THE TRANSMISSION TO FIND A GEAR IT IS HAPPY WITH FOR A GIVEN SPEED AND TERRAIN. BUT THE MOST CONCERNING ISSUE IS THAT IT PULSES HARD WHEN SLOWING TO A STOP. THOUGHT IT WAS THE BRAKE ROTORS AT FIRST, BUT I PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL WHILE BRAKING, AND BRAKING IN NEUTRAL WORKS VERY SMOOTHLY. SEEMS MORE LIKE THE TORQUE CONVERTER DOESN'T WANT TO DISENGAGE. ALSO NOTICE A WHISTLING SOUND FROM THE REAR WHEN ACCELERATING THRU APPROX 40MPH. WILL BE TAKING IT IN TO THE DEALER SOON TO HAVE THESE THINGS CHECKED. I LOVE THE TRUCK OTHERWISE, AND WAS PLANNING TO OWN THIS VEHICLE FOR 10+ YRS, BUT THIS IS NOT A GOOD START.

THIS TACOMA SR5 IS BRAND NEW, ABOUT 4700 MILES ON IT SO FAR. NOTICING A LOT OF HESITATION BETWEEN THE 35-60 MPH. AFTER WEEKS OF TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK TO SAVANNAH TOYOTA, ITS THE TORQUE CONVERTER. THE VEHICLE HAS SLOW PICK UP AND HARD ACCELERATION FROM A STOP TO POSITION. TOYOTA SAYS IT'S NORMAL, BUT SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE ATTACHED THE SERVICE ORDER TO THE COMPLAINT.

LOUD RATTLETLIN NOISE HEARD AT UNDERCARRIAGE WHEN MOVING IN NEUTRAL THRU A BUMPY ROAD.

FOR NO REASON AT ALL MY 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA SR5 STALLED AND DISPLAYED A "HIGH TRANSMISSION TEMP WARNING". THIS OCCURRED WHEN PICKING UP MY CHILD FROM SCHOOL. THE TRUCK WOULD NOT SHIFT AND THE BREAKS DID NOT FUNCTION I HAD TO USE EBRAKE TO NOT HIT OTHER VEHICLES, AND WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCHOOL PARKING LOT WITH MY TWO YOUNG CHILDREN IN AZ HEAT. I WAITED AWHILE AFTER TURNING THE TRUCK OFF AND SHIFTING TO PARK THEN TURNED VEHICLE BACK ON AND IT THEN FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL. I THEN TOOK THE TACOMA TO AVONDALE TOYOTA, FOR A DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. SO FAR THEY HAVE MADE NO REPAIRS AS THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND ARE ON DAY TWO OF HAVING THE VEHICLE TESTING IT TO SEE IF IT WILL HAVE ISSUE AGAIN. THIS COULD BE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF THE SITUATION WAS TO OCCUR ON A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE OR IN THE MIDDLE OF 115 DEGREE WEATHER. SINCE THIS HAPPENED ME AND MY FAMILY FEEL UNEASY EVERY TIME WE TAKE THE VEHICLE ANYWHERE. I'M HOPING THAT THIS ISSUE DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN AND EITHER RESOLVES ITSELF OR TOYOTA FIXES IT. THAT IS THE REASON I PURCHASED A TOYOTA THEIR REPUTATION OF RELIABILITY, BUT WITH LESS THAN 300 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS ISSUE I HOPE I DO NOT REGRET THIS DECISION.

I PURCHASED AND DROVE A BRAND NEW 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA TRD OFF ROAD 4X4 6'BED OFF THE LOT, WITH ONLY TEN MILES ON IT. I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE BACK TO MY HOMETOWN AND WAS BROKEN DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AT 236 MILES. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, THE RPM ODOMETER GAUGE SUDDENLY BEGAN TO JUMP RAPIDLY WHILE THE VEHICLE SIMULTANEOUSLY LOST POWER AND SPEED AND THE WHOLE VEHICLE LURCHED FORWARD ABRUPTLY A FEW TIMES. I PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY. I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. TURNED IT BACK ON, AND IT LURCHED FORWARD AND WAS CLEARLY NOT DRIVABLE SO I TURNED IT BACK OFF. AT NO POINT DID ANY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR WARNING SIGNALS GO OFF ON THE VEHICLE EITHER WHILE DRIVING OR AFTER HAVING PULLED OVER. IT WAS THREE HOURS BEFORE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE GOT A TOW TRUCK TO ARRIVE. UPON LOADING THE VEHICLE ONTO THE TOW TRUCK, IT WAS CLEAR THAT TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS LEAKING IN LARGE QUANTITIES AS IT WAS VISIBLY POOLED WHERE IT HAD BEEN PARKED, HAD LEAKED ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUED TO POUR OUT ALL OVER THE TOW TRUCK BED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHERE THE TOW TRUCK HAD DELIVERED THE VEHICLE TO LATER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND INFORMED ME THAT A MANUFACTURER SEAL HAD FAILED CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO LEAK AND THAT THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE NEVER PASSED QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL AND SHOULD NEVER HAVE LEFT THE MANUFACTURER. THIS VEHICLE'S FINAL ASSEMBLY POINT WAS LISTED AS BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO.

FOR NO REASON AT ALL MY 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA SR5 STALLED AND DISPLAYED A "HIGH TRANSMISSION TEMP WARNING". THIS OCCURRED WITHIN A FEW BLOCKS OF LEAVING MY HOME. A TOW WAS NECESSARY TO GET THE TRUCK TO AUTONATION TOYOTA, CLEARWATER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. AUTONATION MADE NO REPAIRS AS THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AN ONLINE SEARCH REVEALED THIS HIGH TRANSMISSION TEMP WARNING AND STALLING HAS BEEN OCCURRING ON TACOMAS AND TUNDRAS FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS. THIS COULD POSE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF THE STALL OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE. I'M SURE TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT LIKELY HAVE KEPT QUIET ABOUT IT. SINCE THIS HAPPENED I FEEL UNEASY EVERY TIME I TAKE THE VEHICLE ANYWHERE. I'M HOPING NHTSA CAN HELP TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. MAINLY WHEN I'M STOPPED AND THEN TRYING TO TURN. I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT IT JUST WON'T GO. IT'S A FEW SECONDS, THEN THE TRUCK WILL FINALLY GO. IT ONLY HAS ABOUT 200 MILES ON IT. 2019 TACOMA SR. I COULD GET REAR ENDED OR BLOCK THE ROAD IF I GET STALLED! UNSAFE

HAVING ISSUE WITH THE TRUCK 'LURCHING AND JERKING" WITH RPMS FLUCTUATIONING BETWEEN 500 AND 1000. THIS HAPPENS PRIMARILY IN REVERSE WITH YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE WITH STEADY PRUSSURE. I HAD AN UNCOMFORTABLE INCIDENT WITH A WOMAN IN THE SUPERMARKET PARKING LOT. SHE SAW THAT I HAD STOPPED TO LET HER PASS BEHIND ME WHEN THE TRUCK TOOK A SHORT HOP BACKWARDS. SHE WAS NOT HAPPY. SHE TOOK MY PLATE # AND SAID THAT SHE WAS GOING TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE LOCAL PD . I HAVE TAKEN THE TRUCK TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND THE OLD STANDARD ANSWER, " ITS NORMAL".THE TECH THAT EVALUATED MY TRUCK VERIFIED THAT IT WAS IN FACT LURCHING.. I THINK ITS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HAVE OPENED A CLAIM WITH TOYOTA CARE. THIS IS NOT A NEW ISSUE AS THERE ARE SEVERAL WRITTEN CONCERNS IN THE TACOMA FORUMS AND ON SOCIAL MEDIA. I WOULD HATE TO SEE SOMEONE GET INJURED. I AM NOT AN AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN BUT I BELIEVE THIS POSSIBLY MAY BE A SOFTWARE ISSUE BETWEEN THE THROTTLE CONTROL AND ONBOARD COMPUTER

2019 TOYOTA TACOMA TRD PRO REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAS OIL LEAK.
