2014 Toyota Tacoma owner complaints

When stepping on brake pedal it slowly goes to the floor 0n boat ramp un loading boat

I have made replacement on the front brakes, I done this twice this yeas 2020. And it continues to do the same , the brake petal keeps moving down as I keep pressure on it. It works fine for the 1st two weeks. Mechanic suggested to replace master cylinder.

With normal braking, and just before stopping, the brakes grab excessively causing the occupants necks to snap forward. Very annoying and could cause neck strain if not anticipating the reaction. This append from the time I twas new & continues since.

The brakes are "fading" after stopping at a light. By "fading", I mean that the brake pedal will require more pressure after the vehicle has been sitting for at a stop for a time. This is another huge safety issue, because this is causing me to inch forward (so slow), that I don't recognize it, right away, sometimes, and I'm drifting into the stopped vehicle in front of me. I have had multiple drivers, drive the same vehicle, and they can (also) confirm that this is happening with the above vehicle. I (also), reported this issue to the dealership where I purchased the vehicle new and they told me that there was nothing wrong with the brakes. I plan on taking the vehicle back to have it re-inspected. It currently has 5,000 miles. *tr

Any time I engage the 4x4 once you making a tight eight er left or right the steering kinda locks on you and if you trying to give some gas to make truck move it stalls I mentioned to Toyota dealership and the guy said a few people complained about the problem but he can't do anything about it......this creates a dangerous situation if I'm parked on a tight spot and need to engage my all wheel and I cant move the truck.... Or at any situation where I have to make a tight turn....had 4x4 before and none did this to me...... I have a tacoma base 5 speed manual. *tr

I took my vehicle in to the dealer where I always have it serviced, and asked them to do a front end alignment, since it pulls slightly and I noticed a little uneven tire wear. The mechanic said the front suspension is too rusted to align. I took the vehicle to a tire shop recommended by the dealer service advisor, and they said it is extremely rusted and sprayed some penetrating oil on it. I posted some pictures online in a Tacoma forum and everyone thought the rust was excessive, especially for a southern California vehicle where the roads aren't salted. I am the original owner. Based on what I read in online Tacoma forums, excessive frame rust was a well documented problem for earlier years There is excessive rust and corrosion on the front frame, suspension and steering, preventing p

While driving on the freeway, the steering wheel began to shake vigorously, then the right front wheel came completely off the truck. The ball joints snapped off causing a wreck. My truck slid into the side of a big rig. Luckily nobody was hurt, but the failed ball joints were the cause of the accident in my opinion. I also have the dash cam video from the big rig.

My 2014 Toyota tacoma when driving on the fwy over 60 MPH has vibration and steering wheel shake,dealer has replaced tires, re-aligned and road force balance all wheels and problem still persist. Vehicle is now at 5000 miles and being bought back after arbitration, oh it took 2 tacoma's with same issue and 2/1/2 years to get to this point. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 Toyota tacoma. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 17v425000 (structure, equipment). The parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer (Toyota of north miami, 16600 nw 2nd ave, miami, fl 33169) was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. The manufacturer was not contacted. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

Bought the truck from a private seller. Found out about the Toyota frame recall from a 3rd party. Brought my tacoma in for the recall in 2013 but Toyota did not want to check it because I was a couple months pass their dead line. Never got a recall letter. In 2014 I had the truck frame check and undercoated by a small business in the area because I like the truck and wanted it to last. Fall of 2017 went to get the truck inspected and inspection station told me my frame was getting bad. When I got home I wanted check it out for myself to fine out if my frame was really going bad. As I was checking the frame, I was able to pass my figures through the inside of my frame. Called Toyota to report this and they are saying that since I did not bring my truck to get check in 2012 that there is not

Tacoma truck parked and stationary. Passenger exited vehicle but the door could not be opened all the way because it was close to a wall. The sharp rough corner edge of the bottom rear of the front passenger door sliced a passengers leg as the leg was moved to clear the door.. Drivers side door is similar but not as tough or sharp as passengers bottom corner of the door. It has left a scar on the leg. On different occasions both front doors have scraped my leg twice on the drivers side door and my wife's leg twice on driver and passenger door especially when there is limited clearance from the door that is near a wall or other car. This happens on a quad cab because the front doors are cut with a straight edge and the metal is not rounded or smooth finish like the back doors. Toyota admi

Our truck was not on and the keys were not in the ignition or even in the truck. My husband was hooking up the boat trailer and our two year old son put the truck into nutral. My husband said the truck rolled a little. We dont feel as though you should be able to get the truck into another gear from park unless you have your foot on the brake and the truck is on. This could have been really bad scenario if we would have been parked on a hill or incline. We just dont want someone to get hurt.

Electronic stability control turns off when check engine light turns on. Vehicle stability is compromised. Almost rolled the truck over. Dealer technician reports that rodents ate the hose connecting fuel injector air pump to valve which triggers the ECU to fault and cascades failure to stability control. Technician reports that Toyota is using edible soy-based plastics for engine hoses and wiring harness and rodents are causing extensive damage in Toyota vehicles. Toyota does not cover related repairs under manufacturers warranty. Was quoted $1000 to replace one hose since dealer claims Toyota does not sell individual replacement part for this hose. Therefore, the ESC will not get fixed for some time. *js

My entune audio system froze up while using a usp plug. I tried to turn off the audio system and the song kept playing. I tried switching to the radio and the buttons would not respond. I removed the USB plug and it still kept playing for about 2 minutes and than it finally stopped. I was driving at the time.

I have had my secondary air pump replaced twice already. Now six months later am having the same codes and the truck is back at the dealership. Throws code p2443 valve stuck closed.....on a 6 month old part. This w=has been an issue with this and other toyota models since 2012. Why is there no recall on these?

Rodents caused over $3,000 in damage by chewing on cables that are made from one or more of the following (soy, rice husks, wood, sugar, vanilla, peanut oil, and straw; references: www.synlube.com/incredibleediblecar1.htm ; www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=why+do+rodents+eat+cables+on+cars+made+in+japan ; google: rodent damage Toyota ). Toyota refuses to pay for the damage. My auto insurance said it might pay (still waiting to find out) for the damage, but there is a $501 deductible. Toyota is the worst offender of making edible vehicles. If I had known this in advance, I would researched to see which vehicles have edible cables. I will be selling my 2015 tacoma asap and finding another pick-up asap that rodents won't eat. My brother lives in the mountains in new mexico where there

Allow me to explain by starting with the following 2 facts: 1. The recommended action to take when it is cold outside and the windshield begins to fog up while driving is to turn on the defroster on high heat. 2. The 2014 tacoma will not allow me to run the defroster with recirculated air, but rather forces me to use 'fresh' air when using the defroster. The 2 facts listed above make the truck unsafe to drive in cold or humid weather for following 2 reasons: 1. The fresh air (required while using the defroster) is not actually fresh, but rather smells like whatever air happens to be around the tacoma at that time, which many times happens to be the exhaust of the vehicle in front of or near the truck. This dirty air, containing hazardous exhaust fumes not only smells bad, but c
