TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on July 12, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION . in december of 2008, i purchased a brand new 2009 toyota tacoma from harr toyota for about $30,000. this truck was a 4x4 off road, and came with all of the extra options that could be offered. the truck included a 36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty and a lifetime power train warranty. since i travel often for work, the truck would remain garaged for the next few months, away from the elements of the winter. in july, after returning from a business trip, i started to notice that on the highway, the truck had an unusual odor, and when the gas pedal was applied, the smell would get worse. i brought the truck in to be looked at by harr toyota service department, where the transmission was immediately refused to be covered under warranty due to ¿corrosion.¿ historically, toyota has had many issues with corrosion and the immediate refusal for coverage shocked me. they claimed that the truck appeared to ¿have been driven through a body of salt water¿ ¿ coincidentally on the transmission only. after repeated attempts to get toyota corporate to review my case, they claimed that they came to see the truck, and denied coverage. as my research showed, they had not actually come down, and had just spoken to the dealership on the phone. on the next attempt at a toyota inspection for coverage, it was determined that i had to pay $441.00 for them to take the transmission down, and then coverage was once again denied. . after numerous calls, and insulting conversations with demeaning and sarcastic customer care representatives, i have given up and feel that toyota may have gotten the best of me. *tr.Mileage was 6700 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Aug 12, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EQUIPMENT . like a great many other people, i am experiencing major problems with the radio in my 2009 toyota tacoma. the radio turns on and off randomly with no input from me. it also switches bands (fm1 to fm2, etc.) of its own volition. sometimes it refuses to turn on at all. judging from the other complaints scattered around various forum sites on the internet, this problem seems particularly prevalent in the "access cab," which is the model i recently purchased. this bizarre behavior has been happening from the day i drove the car off the dealers lot: the radio--which i thought was off-- suddenly began blaring at high volume. after about one second, it. turned itself off again. it was startling to say the least, and i'm glad it didn't happen in heavy traffic. the radio exhibits some kind of "poltergeist" manifestation almost every time i drive the vehicle. so far toyota's response to my problem also seems typical of what others are reporting. the company (and the dealer) appear to be stonewalling and stalling. the internet is rife with complaints about the radio yet there is no service bulletin (presumably because there is only an indirect connection to safety issues and the lawsuits they can bring). the service writer at my dealership stoutly maintained that he had never heard of the problem. when i told him that i had found complaints all over the internet, he attempted to convince me that i was the victim of internet hysteria--as if i couldn't tell when my radio was turning on and off without human input. in spite of the fact that toyota has known about the problem for the better part of a year, the service writer tells me that "a technician will have to examine the radio for defects and get part numbers and so forth before he can make repairs." in other words, i have to make at least two trips to the dealer (25 miles away) to solve what should be a simple recall issue, and i have to hope an electrical gremlin appears on demand when the technician checks it. *tr.Mileage was 250 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Aug 26, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . my new 2009 toyota prerunner transmission randomly slips (delays) when going from 1st to 2nd gear. i first noticed it at 150 miles. i haven't been able to establish a definite pattern, except it happens when accelerating from speeds below 10mph. i now have 1500 miles on the odometer and it still slips randomly and continuously. i'm afraid that one day i'm going to try to enter traffic and my transmission is going to slip and i'm going to have someone run into me or cause an accident. toyota has told me this is a "normal" thing. nothing has been done about it. i was told it has something to do with the computer/emissions/and other components, working together for better gas mileage (which by the way is not all that great) and it is normal. in other words, nothing is wrong and nothing needs to be fixed, it's supposed to that. it seems to me that the transmission randomly slipping is not something that is supposed to happen. *tr.Mileage was 150 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 16, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i was on my way to work in my new (3 months old) 2009 toyota tacoma. i was about one block from home when i was approaching a red light. as i was braking for the red light and the engine suddenly sped up on it's own. i had to press down very hard on the brakes to stop the car, but wheels were still spinning cause the brakes to smoke. (i could see the smoke in my rear view mirror. i had to put the car in park to completely stop the forward movement of the car. the engine continued to run at very high rpm. i then shut the vehicle off. i started the car again in park, the engine again raced up much higher than normal. i shut the car off again and restarted and every thing was normal. i had the car towed to the toyota dealer as i felt it was unsafe to drive. prior it being towed i checked the gas pedal and their were no obstructions around it. the dealer could not find any fault codes or sticking linkage etc. they also took it for a test drive. the service manager suggested i accidentally put my foot on the gas instead of the brake, which i truly believe is not the case here. i saw other reports on the internet similar to this for the tacoma so i felt compelled to notify you. kindly request that you look into this matter as someone could eventually get seriously hurt or killed. note: i was not using cruise control at the time of the incident. *tr see also 10329722 *dsy.Mileage was 1500 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 02, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . 1. new vehicle--problem began at approximately 3000 miles. 2. transmission disengages for approximately 3 seconds while attempting to accelerate after making a turn at approximately 10 mph--tachometer indicates engine speed reaches approximately 3000 rpm before the transmission reengages with a jerk sufficient to cause rear wheel slip on wet asphalt pavement. this problem occurs at almost every instance when i slow to approximately 10mph for a turn. this problem is apparently very common for my vehicle make /model--there are numerous posts on various internet sites under the heading "2009 toyota transmission problems". this problem, if not resolved, will likely cause many accidents during the approaching winter months. 3. took vehicle to dealer at 4018 miles (08/12/09)--service manager test drove vehicle, refused to acknowledge problem and stated "if check engine indicator light is not on, there are no problems with the vehicle". *tr.Mileage was 3000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . 2009 toyota tacoma 4x4 crew pickup truck with auto transmission and v6 engine accelerated unexpectedly to over 80 mph, then later on the same trip it happened again. i was on a long straight stretch of interstate the second time so i allowed the truck to accelerate to approximately 95 mph at which time i stopped the truck again. the first time it happened, i had disengaged the cruise control due to a slower car in front of me and when i engaged the cruise control resume feature the truck accelerated 15 mph past the preset speed at which time i turned off the cruise control and regained control of the truck. the second time that it happened the truck was again in cruise control mode and was going up a long hill. when the cruise control shifted the transmission down and accelerated to maintain set speed the truck continued to accelerate past 95 mph and was only stopped by turning off the cruise control again. i allowed the truck to get to that speed to see if it would discontinue accelerating but chickened out at 95 mph because it is after all a truck. i took the truck to the selling dealer, he tried to make it happen again with no success (told me he would have to replace the cruise control unit but could not do that unless he could duplicate the problem because it is a very expensive change out) and it has not happened but one more time. 4 things seem to be common: 1. the cruise is turned on. 2. the vehicle is accelerating when the problem starts. 3. the transmission has automatically downshifted. 4. the problem is halted by turning off the cruise control. i had the dealer document the problem since he would not fix it. i hope this info helps in your continuing investigation of the problems that toyota seems to be having. i am not a disgruntled customer, i have purchased a 2010 corolla from the same dealer since the incidents. *tr.Mileage was 2000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Nov 03, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . on tuesday, november 3, 2009, i was coming out of a stop light and the throttle went to full open and stuck. (2009 tacoma - just a year old) i am a conservative driver and do not gun the engine. i was pulling into the intersection gradually and hadn't even let the clutch out all the way yet to shift out of first when the throttle when to full. (thank goodness i have a standard!) i babied the clutch to give me just enough gas to move through the intersection and stop on the other side. i turned off the truck and when i turned it back on, it was fine. the engine smelled awful! i checked the floor mat when i stopped because i know it can cause problems and i had a non-conforming mat, so i keep an eye on it, but the mat wasn't the problem. also, i never had the accelerator down very far at all when the throttle opened up, so i don't see how the mat could cause the throttle to open full, stick yes, but open full by itself? i drove it the rest of the way to work (less than 2 miles) and the smell blew away and all seemed ok. i had it in the shop today and they could find nothing wrong and told me to remove the mats. fine, i can do that, but meanwhile it makes me nervous that it could happen again. the service department representative agreed with me that he didn't see how the mats could have caused the problem i did not know about this being a general problem and in the news right now (i don't watch tv and if i miss the npr story or it isn't front page, i may not hear things). when i found out others were having the problem, i thought i should write about mine. *tr.Mileage was 7000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Sept 28, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . i purchased a new toyota tacoma sr5 pickup 8/27/09. immediately i noticed a problem when i slowed down at speed bumps and to turn corners and then started to accelerate. the vehicle would hesitate then surge forward. i can stop the hesitation somewhat by very lightly pressing the accelerator after i slow down and then slowly accelerating. if i forget to very lightly accelerate, the vehicle will surge forward following the hesitation. one time this surge as i turned a corner almost took me into oncoming traffic. i attempted to resolve the issue with service representatives locally who told me the transmission was operating normally. i filed a complaint with toyota, was given a case number and was told by their complaint center that it was toyota's position that the transmission is operating normally. i feel that this tendency, which has been documented by numerous other owners at online sites such as edmunds.com, is a safety hazard that should be remedied in a recall. this situation occurs every time the vehicle is driven and requires very careful concentration to avoid a sudden and potentially unsafe surge in speed. nothing has been done to correct this issue and no response other than to deny my complaint has been taken. *tr.Mileage was 100 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Dec 14, 2009.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation had a problem with AIR BAGS . the radio acts erratically and unpredictably. it changes stations, turns itself off and on, etc. sometimes the controls, such as the volume, are non-responsive, so the radio cannot be turned down or off when needed. since fiddling with the radio usually makes it eventually start working again, it is a distraction hazard. i have drifted over the yellow line trying to get it working again. the dealer has acknowledged the defect but refused to repair it. it is an ongoing problem. the dealer said it is a very common problem but toyota will not provide replacement parts. i believe few people report it because the radio is not seen as a safety issue, but it is a serious distraction. *tr the consumer stated the air bag light has been on for two years. also, one of the leaf springs had broken in half. .Mileage was 4000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Nov 27, 2010.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . while driving my 2009 toyota tacoma sport pick-up truck in a lowes home improvement center parking lot today (11/27/10 at 2:25 pm), my tacoma began a very rapid acceleration as i put my foot on the brake to slow down rounding an isle turn in the lot and preparing to park the vehicle. i applied immediate heavy pressure on the brake since a toyota prius was right in front of me and i did not want to hit it. during my braking the rear tire(s) was spinning and screeching on the pavement. the truck moved forward about 5 feet and then the motor shut off as i was reaching to turn off the ignition. whew! this happened in all of a span of maybe 4 to 5 seconds. thank god i had just recently taken the truck in for a recall where the dealer cut back the accelerator pedal and installed new software to shut off the engine when the brake was applied. this new software saved my butt and that of the prius too. who knows the damage that might have been done without it. this is my (the tacoma's) 3rd rapid acceleration incident and 3rd time i am reporting to the nhtsa. first report was on 12/03/09 id: 174319. this time i was parked with the motor running. upon moving the shift lever from p to n the motor rapidly accelerated. since the car was in neutral i was able to shut off the ignition. i took the truck to the dealer the next day and they "found no problem". right! my second report to the nhtsa was on 4/14/10 odi: 10325627. same problem as with the first report to the nhtsa. i did not take it to the dealer this time because i knew that they would "not find anything." for this latest incident i am taking the truck in on monday morning, 11/29/10 at the dealer's request to me today. regardless of what the dealer may say to me or does, i am getting rid of the tacoma. it has become too dangerous to drive. i am lucky my wife was not driving the tacoma when this last incident happened. see also 10294490 and 10325627. *dsy *tr.Mileage was 23762 miles.

(i have filed a complaint on her vehicle as well.) this is not driver error. it's a very scary situation and we are both hopeful nothing serious happens to us or the vehicles in front of us as we are trying to stop our vehicles. *ln.Mileage was 3000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on May 30, 2011.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . braking inconsistency, usually in stop and go or unexpected traffic stops, say at traffic lights and intersections. occasionally the efficiency of the brakes varies, usually causing concern that one might / will not be able to stop short of a collision. ie near misses. this condition is experienced even on dry excellent road surfaces in normal weather conditions. surprise, longer than expected stopping distances, questioning if all the brakes are functioning or if abs is cutting in prematurely. occasional long rollouts stops and a couple of experiences where i had to alter heading to almost pass up along side the vehicle ahead, during a freeway stop and go, panic stop has made me suspect that there might be a relationship with the axle-wrap (tacoma) phenomenon. could the excessive brake bias caused rotation of the rear axle housing and abs sensors be imparting a premature false, impending wheel lockup signal, to the abs computer to unnecessarily bypass fluid under pressure back to the reservoir and thus not maintain full brake pressure to all four brakes/wheels during medium to heavy braking on good road conditions? not all stops produce bumping (axlewrap) and only on occasion is reduced braking a major factor, however they do occur and usually when you are not expecting it. toyota doesn't seem to have a solution to the axle-wrap recurring discrepancy. dealerships seem to believe that if there was a serious problem then toyota would tell them about it? unusual brake shoe wear patterns exist. on subject vehicle the rear shoes at last inspection appeared to be about half worn away and the front disc pads were relatively little worn and one could expect that the backs would need changing two to three times relative to the front discs once. this may support the theory that a severe brake bias exists and could be due to a malfunctioning abs system? technicians from toyota have driven the vehicle and have not recommended any solutions or corrective maintenance. 5/10 - 5/11. *tr.Mileage was 32000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Sept 20, 2011.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . daylight running lights burn /melt the lens due to excessive heat, in less then 30k miles. i believe toyota has a design problem with the drls. every tacoma with the drl option will eventually have this problem. the compartment that holds the dlr light is small, with no ventilation, and the lamp dissipates approximately 28 watts of heat, which is focused toward the lens (along with the light). it is simply too much heat in too small an area, and the heat is sufficient to melt the plastic lens in front of the lamp. since the drl is part of the headlight assembly, the cost of parts is reported to be around $700 plus labor. i believe that lenses (with proper lamps) should never melt. asking tacoma owners to pay $700 +, every 30k miles is outrageous! my headlight assemblies were replaced under warranty, but they are sure to fail again if something is not done to correct the design of the dlrs. it appears that toyota is ignoring the problem and hoping most people won't recognize the problem until after the vehicle is out of warranty. now i am concerned that this condition will eventually lead to an electrical fire. *tt.Vehicle was on fire.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 02, 2012.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . the drls/turn signals of the 2009 toyota tacoma have a faulty design resulting with the lens melting (toyota calls it bubbling) and cracking. toyota did issue a recent tsb (t-sb-0129-11) to replace the headlight assemblies on impacted trucks. several model years were included. the tsb is worded that only trucks with less than 36k miles and less than 36 months old will be repaired. my truck had about 40k miles and was about 34 months old when i finally took it to the local dealer. i didn't bring it in when i first noticed the defect because i didn't think toyota would even consider not replacing the lights because it's an obvious design defect. some of the older models mentioned in the tsb would have been older than 36 months when the tsb was released. drls were developed so other drivers can better see you. a melted drl lens will dim the brightness of the light to other drivers. toyota should be repairing all the damaged headlight assemblies. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 34000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 10, 2011.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . after completing an oil change on my 2009 toyota tacoma in october of 2011 i noticed that the amber lens in the headlight was discolored and seemed to be melting due to overheating. over the past year i have been monitoring the situation and noticed that the melting and cracking of the amber lens inside of the headlight is progressively getting worse. it seems that the daytime running lights were not properly engineered in this model. because of the defect there is a clear concern for driver safety. the melting lenses create an obvious fire hazard. the toyota dealership where i purchased my tacoma in the metro atlanta area advised me that toyota has no recall of extended warranty for this "known" problem. i was very dismayed to hear this because the issue is clearly presents a threat to the driver. because of this situation i have to make a decision on what options are available to me. either i replace the entire headlight assembly with the toyota factory assembly which is already known to have a defect or purchase and aftermarket headlight assembly and hope the it is engineered better than the toyota one, or i figure out a way to disable the daytime running lights to cut back on the head that builds up with them constantly being on. i would rather not disable the daytime running lights because i believe that they do provide significant safety value. i am not sure what i am going to do at this point but clearly action is needed. i would like toyota to step up to the plate and replace the defective potentially harmful headlight assemblies. *tr.Vehicle was on fire. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 51528 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 16, 2013.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SUSPENSION . at my state inspection i was told the front ball joints were very bad. i contacted the dealer and was told they were not under warranty, they would cost $800.00 to repair and they had not experienced this failure before at such low mileage. this year i took my truck in for inspection to find the rear leaf springs on both sides were broken. when i contacted the dealer i was again told it was not a warranty issue and they had not experienced it before. i asked to have the contact information for the toyota district representative, but was told they did not give that information out. i sent a complaint via email to toyota corporate and at this point have received not response. the local repair shops tell me they have repaired many of these trucks for these problems. the internet is awash with complaints regarding broken springs. i was lucky, i discovered the problem before the spring piece reached my rear tire. i believe this is a potentially very serious safety issue that the company is taking no responsibility to resolve. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 55000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2010.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN . shortly after purchase, i noticed that the truck nudges or slightly moves while at a stop, brake on and engine running. when brake is released it nudges again. i am unable to determine if this is a transmission issue or a brake issue. i have taken to toyota on number of times. nothing done. one comment from toyota online was this is the characteristic of that year transmission. funny, it did not do this when purchased. now i cant sell it because of this problem. it seems to be getting worse, but no assistance from toyota. another find online from others was that this is a drive line wrap. something to do with the drive shaft while under load. the truck runs great and i do not experience any issues with the shifting or drive-ability of the transmission while moving. new tires were installed last month and the problem seemed to diminish. it is now back to the same pattern...at every stop. can you assist with any solutions? i just would like to have it fixed. hopefully by toyota on their nickel.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Apr 25, 2013.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . when i took my tacoma pickup to the local dealer for its 35,000-mile oil change and tire rotation, they pointed out that the lenses on both daytime running lights are burned and distorted, apparently from the heat of the amber bulb. they said there is no solution other than replacing the entire headlight module on both sides. parts and labor would be somewhere between $700 and $1,000. i'm past the three-year warranty coverage. i sent an e-mail complaint to toyota and they said this is a cosmetic problem that they will not fix. wrong. this is a fire safety problem. from online research, i have now learned that this is a huge problem with tacomas. on new models, it has been fixed with a redesigned headlight module that moves the bulb socket farther back to prevent the heat from the bulb from damaging the lens. on older models, you could just remove the bulb to avoid a fire except that the daytime running light bulb is also the turn signal bulb. i hope you will do something about this huge safety hazard. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 35000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 2013.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . the plastic housing/plastic lens covering the amber daytime running lights and the clear fog lights are burned, melted, cracked and broken. this is not due to any front end collision but due to the extreme heat generated by the original factory-installed light bulbs. the lights are generating so much heat that they are melting, burning and cracking the plastic housing which then breaks under driving stress. compounding the problem is that there is no way to turn off the daytime running lights when the vehicle is in operation. either the daytime running lights must be on or the headlights must be on. therefore, the lights continue to burn the plastic housing. toyota will not completely cover the cost to repair and replace these defective light systems stating that the vehicle is out of the 3 year warranty. although the vehicle is one year out of the 3 years manufacturer's warranty this problem did not occur overnight but is the result of 4 years of use. the lens have been progressively getting worse over time. because the lens are burned, we are concerned that a fire could occur. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 61000 miles.

TOYOTA TACOMA 2009 car safety problem was reported on Mar 07, 2014.TOYOTA TACOMA 2009, manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation had a problem with SUSPENSION . i heard a rattling noise from the right rear of the truck while driving on a bumpy side road. i investigated and discovered the bottom leaf spring had broken in half. doing some online research i discovered that this is a very common problem with tacoma's. i contacted the dealer and it is not a covered item (no tbs) and it would cost over $1800. i went to my local mechanic which saved me $700. during the repair it was discovered that both right and left were broken. my mechanic informed me that this is a very common problem; that toyota lengthened the springs to soften the ride, as a result compromised the strength. the leaf springs have always squeaked just by getting in and out of the truck. there is a sticker on the door frame stating that the load rating has been reduced by 290 lbs for this vehicle, i wondered why now i know, cheap springs! *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 79000 miles.
