2021 Toyota Tacoma Other Problems

Your truck has stalled and completely shut off while driving on multiple occasions — once at highway speed (75 mph) with no warning, and twice at low speeds while backing up or driving slowly. The dealership found cylinder misfire codes and engine stall codes, and warning lights appeared each time (master warning, charging system, oil/fluid temperature). Despite documented diagnostic codes at your dealership, the manufacturer's technical review found insufficient evidence of a stalling problem after a short test drive, and did not respond to your lemon law claim within the required timeframe. Diagnosing this will likely require the dealership to perform a full engine diagnostic scan, check the ignition and fuel system components, and possibly replace spark plugs or ignition coils.

Your AC compressor is leaking refrigerant gas instead of maintaining proper pressure. Your dealer says you need a new compressor, which seems premature for a 4-year-old vehicle. The fix will involve replacing the AC compressor and likely recharging the system with fresh refrigerant.

The paint is starting to peel on the passenger fender. It is on the inside of where the hood gap is in a area that is not exposed to rock chips or would be susceptible to external damage. It is also located right next to where the rubber bump stop is to prevent the hood from contacting the fender so it would be impossible for the hood to cause the issue and since the hood has no signs of chipping or rubbing in that area.

I went to my regular Maintenace appt at my local Toyota dealer Newton, NJ on 3/10/2023. They told me that it would be about $700 or more for my 2021 Toyota Tacoma boot leak and an alignment. I was told that it was due me hitting potholes. I did not agree with their opinion, and i was annoyed. They acted weird as well. But i told them to fix it anyway. So they ordered the parts. Much later they said boot leak was under warranty, but just to pay for alignment. I was not happy with the pothole accusation. Thank God the boot leak was covered! I have been taking in my Toyota Tacoma in every 5,000-6,500 miles as suggested. Please keep me informed of any recalls. They fixed boot and alignment on March 15 2023.

The accelerator on my truck suddenly accelerates without warning at highway speeds 60MPH and above, as well as residential speeds of 25+ MPH. It also accelerates when coming up to a stop sign and you are slowing down. The Toyota dealership said they were unable to reproduce or duplicate the problem. It is very frightening when it happens because it lasts between 4-5 seconds if you do not apply the brakes hard. There has not been any warning lights or anything that comes up on the dash board.

The Audio system sound cuts out intermittently when the vehicle is in motion. This occurs when using the AM radio, the FM radio, the SiriusXM radio, and when the phone is connected. The display on the Audio head unit remains on and shows the radio station and information about what's being broadcast, while the connection to the speakers cuts out at random. This has been an ongoing problem for the past 6 months. I have made 8 trips to a Toyota dealer to have this diagnosed and fixed to no avail as the dealer is often unable to replicate the problem. The Audio head unit has been replaced twice (3rd Audio head unit now) and the problem persists. I have cell phone video of the problem as proof. This would be a "safety" issue if I were attempting to be informed of an imminent severe weather event, or in the event I was attempting to make a phone call in the case of an emergency.

I buy a Toyota Tacoma 2021 on 5 of June 2021 in Toyota Walnut Creek California. And I have to sell it again on 15 november 2021 5 months later. Ok I was driving in a long trip of 9hrs. And I adjust the seat to be comfortable to drive but I notice that when I was looking to the front right side the mirror in the center to look to the back was in the way of my view, and I drive , moving my head down to look under the mirrorevery time when I look to the right front. A the end of the trip I get tired driving that way. Next time I was driving in Oakland Ca. I was in a stop waiting to turn to the left side in a road, and the cars in the other side in front of me the put me the high beams,and I was thinking they give me the pass, and I look around to drive,and right away 3 persons was in front of me, and thanks to GOD I don’t drive over and kill them. And I get very mad frustrated , I was ready to break the mirror with my right hand, but I control my self and don’t do it. That was when I notice the mirror and the black spot is in the mirrow is a very bad location, that take lot of view to the front right side, they need to relocated all the sensors are in that area. I sold the truck no because I can’t drive it eny more.I call Toyota I they. Don’t pat attention.

Not a "safety" issue per se, but the A/C expansion valve makes a loud whistling noise every 15 seconds when driving on freeway and the noise is quite distracting when combined with other possible safety alert noises. TAS case was opened with Toyoyta and they state that vehicle is operating as per design and no further action will taken on their part. Noise seems to be getting more frequent and I can't believe the vehicle is designed to be this way. It seems a redesigned expansion valve should be required to prevent unnecessary distracting noises.
