TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on June 15, 2008.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STRUCTURE . the toyota tacoma (2008) is advertised for use to transport motorcycles. this is a central theme in their marketing program. the bed is turns out is made of "composite" (plastic). the tie down points are rails and cleats that come off or slide along the sides of the bed, not regular tie downs in the front corners, as in normal metal trucks. there is no metal in the bed to affix a tie down point to. this system is not strong enough to handle the weight or angle of motorcycles. plus the angles required to tie down motorcycles force the cleats to bend and flex because they are only installed in plastic. it turns out the owner's manual for the 2008 has limitations on the cleats both in angle of tie downs and weight, both of which are exceeded in their ad photographs, leading one to believe it can be used for this purpose, and in what their dealers (or at least power toyota in tempe arizona, and toyota motor sales usa, inc is advertising). in fact, many have purchased the truck for this purpose and are danger of a failure of the system. toyota has admitted it is insufficient to handle the weight, but continues to sell the vehicles for this purpose, as is shown in their ads. the dealer that i bought mine from withheld the owner's manual until after i took the truck home, and let me know i could come back for it. the specifications on the tie down limitations are not disclosed anywhere but in the owner's manual. the dealer also told me to use the truck in violation of the owner's manual when i met with them about the problem. this creates a dangerous situation in the event a motorcycle comes off the back of a truck and hurts/kills someone. *tr.Mileage was 15 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Nov 15, 2008.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . driving my 2008 toyota tacoma prerunner (odometer 12226). returned from short trip to visit friend (approximately 1.5 miles away). turned to pull into double garage. automatic transmission was in lower gear 2 or 3. braked appropriately to stop in garage. started to shift towards park. engine rev'd up to very high rpm. rear tires started spinning forward. vehicle started moving forward against brakes. applied heavy brakes. engine was still racing. vehicle continued to move forward, impacting storage cabinets against wall. all this occurred in 2-3 seconds. no time to react. relatively slow impact (due to brakes). finally shut off engine with key, but too late. . damage to garage wall and front of vehicle. never had this problem before. restarted engine later, and could not duplicate problem in driveway. had vehicle checked by nearest dealer next day. they could not duplicate problem. they had heard of very few similar problems. technician said accelerator pedal was sticking slightly... depending on where pressure was applied on pedal. this was not likely cause because foot was off accelerator pedal and engine idling at low rpm before problem occurred. technician attempted to download program update which (i think) would have eliminated an 'increased rpm to burn off excess waste in catalytic converter'... but did not download because this fix was only for vehicles with super charger. dealer could not find similar problem in their database... but they'll keep checking. root cause of problem is not yet known. i consider myself a very safe driver. i was very familiar with the vehicle and the garage entry process was nothing new to me. *tr.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 12226 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Mar 08, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . i was traveling on the parkway, pittsburgh near pittsburgh international airport on march 8, 2009. where this problem occurred is 3 lanes. i accelerated to pass a slow moving vehicle in the middle lane, the throttle stuck wide open and i was speeding as fast as this vehicle could go, i tried braking with one foot, then 2 feet, nothing was slowing me down. i was concentrating on what was around me and not the speedometer or gauges. i noticed a gravel berm on the right side of the parkway and thought my only way of getting this truck stopped would be to try and get into the gravel but knew at the speed in which i was going that i would probably flip the vehicle. the vehicles ahead of me were getting closer and i knew that i had to get this vehicle stopped somehow. i put the vehicle in neutral and the engine was screaming - it sounded as if the engine would come through the hood of the truck. the speed at which i was traveling still propelled me up the gravel berm, when i came to a near stop, i shut the ignition off. i looked down at the floor, the gas pedal was not stuck, the floor mats were no where near the gas or brake pedal. the smell of hot brakes was quite evident. i started the vehicle and it started normally. i continued to my destination cautiously. the next day, monday, my husband and me took the tacoma to toyota of greensburg where we bought it and it was put on the computer and showed "no error codes". the service manager said that he had never heard of this problem, although i had gone on-line the night before typing "toyota tacoma acceleration problems" and found numerous articles. i told the service manager that i did not want this vehicle that it is a "death trap!" the service manager said, "well, i can tell you we are not going to buy it back." i have contacted nhtsa and spoke to scott yon who advised me to contact toyota california, i contacted toyota and spoke to don lombardo and nicole red who blamed this incident on the tacoma rubber floor mats. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 12000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Oct 12, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . i previously filed odi complaint 10282779 to report to two instances where my tacoma accelerated on its own at a time when i had about 17,000 mi. on the vehicle. thereafter i tried to troubleshoot the problem. the only thing that changed prior to the onset of the spontaneous acceleration was that i acquired a blackberry curve to replace my previous cell phone. my old cell phone was smaller, so while driving i usually kept it in the slot next to my gear shifter. my blackberry was much bigger and didn't fit in the slot. therefore i put it in the cup holder underneath my dashboard. it was then that i started experiencing the acceleration problem. subsequently, i started carrying my blackberry either in my backpack on the passenger seat or in the slot where i used to keep my smaller cell phone and i no longer charge the blackberry using the charger that plugs into my lighter socket in my dashboard. with one exception (which i shall describe) this has solved the problem over the 9,000 mi. since it began. on 10/21/2009, i was driving my tacoma at a time when i needed to charge my blackberry. i plugged my blackberry into the car charger and placed the blackberry in my backpack on the passenger seat. within 10 miles my tacoma started accelerating uncontrollably. i shifted the truck into a lower gear and unplugged my phone from the charger, but the vehicle kept accelerating. i shifted to neutral and turned off the engine when it started to redline, and steered the vehicle off the side of the road. after i stopped, i shifted into park and turned the ignition and the engine again started to redline. i let it rest a couple of minutes, and it started normally and i drove off. i no longer charge my blackberry with the lighter charger and have not had any subsequent problems. it is my belief that my blackberry's electromagnetic frequencies interfere with my tacoma's electrical system when the phone is either too near the dash or plugged into the car charger. *tr.Mileage was 19000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Dec 22, 2008.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . on 08/24/08, my husband and i purchased a 2008 toyota tacoma truck. on 12/22/2008, he was coming to a stop at a traffic light behind another vehicle. suddenly, without warning, the engine seemed to engage at full throttle. his right foot was not on the gas pedal, but on the brake pedal as it should be while waiting for the light to change to green. startled, he put both feet on the brake pedal as the acceleration of the engine seemed to overtake the ability to brake. the truck lurched forward and hit the car in front which stopped the momentum and killed the engine. the acceleration and power of the engine was so great that this all happened in about 3-5 seconds. when he restarted the engine, everything seemed to be fine as the trucks computer seemed to reset itself. he reported this to toyota and asked that the truck be checked out. when we went to pick up the truck at hooman toyota, where a factory tech came to inspect it, he was told that the braking system was fine and acceleration system (pedal linkage) was fine as well. he was even told that the floor mat was unhooked and probably got stuck on top of the accelerator pedal. the floor mats were not unhooked when we dropped off the truck. my husband tried the floor mat on top of the pedal while stepping on the brake and the rpm did not go up much at all, certainly not enough to overpower the braking system as the tech suggested. we believe there was a computer malfunction and not a mechanical malfunction which was that the tech checked out. the case manager was informed of this before and after the inspection. after the recall notice on tv in august, we removed the floor mats from the truck, a second incident occurred 10/19/09 (with no floor mats) which did not result in an accident. we, again, brought the truck into the dealer and it was, once again, cleared to drive with no issues. there is clearly a huge problem with the vehicle and we are scared to drive it. please help! *jb.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 5000 miles.

Toyota Tacoma 2008 Unknown Or Other Review #10331239

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Nov 22, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . referencing my 2008 4.0l six-cylinder toyota tacoma with demand 4x4, 5-speed automatic transmission and trd sport package that includes a limited slip rear differential, i experienced an unanticipated unexplainable loss of engine power. note that the truck does not have a user controllable torque limiting or traction control system. while attempting to slowly traverse a grassy surface while in two-wheel drive the vehicle involuntarily came to a standstill. the engine had lost power and the vehicle refused to move. the rear wheels did not suffer any loss of traction in other words they did not lose traction and spin and could not be made to spin. applying full throttle did not help; although not misfiring while running smoothly, the engine lacked meaningful power and would not gain any significant rpms under any throttle position. there were no abnormal gauge readings or instrument panel warning lights indicating a problem. after several attempts at working the truck free by going from neutral to drive i was able to move it onto pavement but, while on the road, the vehicle continued to exhibit a gross loss of power and had difficulty attaining even 40 mph. after driving several miles down the road, the fault eventually cleared and the engine returned to its normal energetic self. because the vehicle's performance returned to normal (and it was sunday) it was not taken to a repair shop. on arriving at my destination, i connected a obd2 diagnostic tool to the vehicle but no trouble code was indicated. (there was no indication of water in the vehicle's gasoline and the gasoline was fresh and of proper octane; the engine or ignition system were not wet. no possible causes for the power loss were observed.) an unexplained loss of engine power in a moving vehicle can prove disastrous if not dangerous. attempts at contacting toyota in order to identify a cause and remedy for the problem have proven futile. *tr.Mileage was 12000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Dec 01, 2011.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SUSPENSION . the vehicle had 4 passengers and about 200 pounds of gear in the truck bed and it has a leer cap on.on bumpy roads it began to hit the bump stops as if it were overloaded, this happened about 20 times.on the return trip on i 57 n as i crossed over a bridge the truck bottomed out slamming the bump stops and the vehicle almost veered off the road to the right, the rear suspension after hitting the bump stops hard seemed to return erratically and disturb the balance of the vehicle. on another trip a few weeks later with 3 of the same people in the car in snow conditions i again hit the bump stops but this time the vehicle veered to the right and i lost control due to lack of traction. toyota has inspected the vehicle on 2 occasions in regard to the bottoming out issue, both times they say nothing is wrong, did have the factory tsb done for the suspension early on but it has not helped, as truck gets older the lack of control after hitting the bump stops is repeatable and predictable even with less weight than it is rated for. *tt.Mileage was 46000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on July 02, 2013.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . my 2008 toyota tacoma has a factory bed extender. which allows use to use the tailgate as part of the truck bed. due to the small 5 ft bed. load the weight of a rototiller into the truck cased the tailgate to bow and become unstable. they do not have any weight limit or restriction posted. if they sell parts to use the tailgate to support items it should not fail under such light loads. 2008 toyota tacoma tailgate is dangerously weak, and is unable to support what most consider normal weight for a truck tailgate. although substandard design may be considered "buyer beware", truck buyers expect a tailgate to support the weight of normal truck use activities. toyota provides no warning or caution anywhere that the tailgate is of insufficient strength to perform normal 1/2-ton truck duties, and typically (per internet forum threads) tells their customers that it is their problem and that they should not expect to be able to safely use the tailgate for anything more than hiding the inside of the bed. since toyota has produced a substandard designed part, they should have provided a visual warning on the part to alert customers to the danger their product imposes if used in a traditional manner. since they did not do so, they should be held liable to provide a redesigned part to their customers or full restitution for the purchase price of the vehicles. a google or similar internet search on "tacoma tailgate forum" will substantiate my statements beyond my personal experience with the tailgate bending. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 5000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2008 car safety problem was reported on Aug 20, 2008.TOYOTA TACOMA 2008, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . i have a 2008 toyota tacoma. the way the brake and gas pedals are configured i frequently hit the gas pedal along with the brake pedal. the brake pedal when depressed goes almost to the floor. the pedals are so close together that the gas pedal is sometimes caught by the edge of my shoe while braking causing the engine to race. this especially happens when backing up and my body is contorted to see out the rear windshield. but it also happens occasionally when driving forward and attempting to stop. i do not feel safe in this vehicle and had numerous close calls almost running into cars or object in front of me. i have referred the problem to the dealer. they say they have no remedy for the problem. i was referred to toyota corporate national headquarters phone # 1-800-331-4331 and had an investigation case open, case number 1307222061. after the inspection of my vehicle they said that my truck is operating as designed. i still feel that there is a potential for an accident. another side note is that whenever i brought my truck in to the dealer just about this problem they wouldn't charge for the inspection or brake adjustments and so no paperwork was written up of my complaints which has happen two or three times. so you probably won⿿t see much of any history about this issue. i don⿿t know if this was by design to not have a paper record to avoid recalls or having customer complaints documented. i have also mentioned this to the service department on numerous occasions during routine service visits but it was never really written up. i have read on the internet that other tacoma owners have had the same problem. the last incident that i had a month ago i almost went of a cliff because my foot caught on the gas pedal while braking. it's a poor design to have the brake pedal go below the level of the gas pedal at any time when they are so close to each other. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 5000 miles.
