EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION: THIS RECALL IS FOR TRAILER TOWING WIRE HARNESS CONVERTERS INSTALLED BY DEALERS OR FOR INSTALLATION ON 1999-2000 TOYOTA TUNDRA AND TACOMA VEHICLES. THE CONNECTORS INTEGRATE THE VEHICLE'S TAIL LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS, AND TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS WITH THOSE EQUIPPED ON THE TRAILER, ARE DEFECTIVE. AFFECTED PART NUMBERS ARE: PT207-34000, PT207-34002, PT207-04981, AND PT214-04985. IN THE TUNDRA VEHICLES, THE CIRCUITRY UTILIZED IN THE CONVERTER WAS INADEQUATE TO PROPERLY MANAGE VEHICLE AND/OR TRAILER-SIDE VOLTAGE SPIKES. IF THE CONVERTER IS EXPOSED TO A VOLTAGE SPIKE, IT MAY CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT OR OPEN CIRCUIT WITHIN THE CONVERTER. IN THE TACOMA VEHICLES, DUE TO DEFICIENT WATERPROOFING AND IMPROPER INSTALLATION LOCATION OF THE CONVERTER, WHICH IS MOUNTED IN THE LOWER PORTION OF THE TAILGATE CAVITY OF THE VEHICLE, AN ELECTRICAL SHORT CIRCUIT WILL OCCUR IF WATER ENTERS THE CONVERTER HOUSING.
AN ELECTRICAL SHORT OR OPEN CIRCUIT CAN CAUSE A FAULT IN THE CONVERTER AND A NON-OPERATIONAL CONDITION OF THE TRAILER LIGHTS. IF THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN WITHOUT TRAILER LIGHTS, IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR OTHER DRIVERS TO SEE THE TRAILER, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL NOTIFY THE CUSTOMERS AND INSTALL A REDESIGNED TRAILER TOWING WIRE HARNESS CONVERTER FREE OF CHARGE. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN AUGUST 27, 2001. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT TOYOTA AT 1-800-331-4331.

(ACTUAL INCIDENT DATE: 01/02/2003 ->MESSAGE TO NHTSA: UPDATE YOUR INCIDENT DATE PULLDOWN, 2003 NOT LISTED!): ON 05/14/2001, TURN SIGNAL WAS REPLACED (COURTESY) AS PRECAUTION FROM PREVIOUS DRIVER NOTED FAILURES. SOMETIME EARLY SPRING 2002, DRIVER NOTICED TURN SIGNAL MALFUNCTION ONE MORNING, AFTER THAT NONE OCCURED UNTIL 01/02/2003 AT 10:15AM. DRIVER TRIED TO ENGAGE AND DISENGAGE TURN SIGNAL MULTIPLE TIMES BUT TURN SIGNAL FAILED TO OPERATE. DRIVER HAD TO USE HAND TO SIGNAL TURNING TO REACH DESTINATION.

SINCE THEN NO PROBLEMS YET WITH TURN SIGNAL. APPROXIMATE MILEAGE OF FAILURE: 25,600. IN ADDITION, THE FLOOR OF THE PASSENGER SIDE ALWAYS GETS WET/DAMP WHEN VEHICLE IS WASHED OR WHEN IT RAINS.

Seats, Sep 10, 2002
THE DRIVERS SEAT IS NOT FASTENED SECURELY TO THE FLOOR. THE RUBBER GROMMET BRAKES INTO PIECES LEAVING THE SEAT TRACK TO MOVE UP AND DOWN FREELY. ALSO, THE DRIVERS SEAT BACK HAS 2 TO 3 INCHES OF PLAY. POSSIBLY DUE TO THE SEAT TRACK MOVEMENT. I FEAR THAT THE SEAT WILL NOT SUPPORT ME IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE HAD IT REPAIRED ONCE ALREADY AND IN LESS THEN 2000 MILES IT HAS BROKEN AGAIN. I NOTICED SOMETHING WAS WRONG AT ABOUT 15000 MILES BUT DID NOT FIND THE PROBLEM UNTIL 50000 MILES.

THE VEHICLE ROCKS AND SWAYS BACK AND FORTH LIKE IT'S GOING GO TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. IT IS WORST IN WINDY CONDITIONS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED ALL FOUR SHOCKS AND HAS HAD THE TRUCK ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASSIONS. THEY SAID THEY CONTACTED TOYOTA AND WAS TOLD NOT TO DO ANYTHING ELSE. THE DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGES THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE UNDER THE WARRANTY, BECAUSE TOYOTA SAID NOT TO. THE VEHICLE IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT THIS TIME. IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. I HOPE THAT YOU CAN PLEASE HELP ME. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. THIS IS MY 3RD TOYOTA TRUCK SENSE 1988. TALKING TO THE SERVICE REP AND TEST DRIVING IT WITH ONE OF THERE MECHANICS AND THEM ALL SAYING THERE IS SOMTHING WRONG WITH THE SUSPENION AND ALSO CHANGING THE SHOCKS TO TRY AND ALIEVIATE THE PROBLEM, BUT YET REFUSE TO DO ANYMORE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, IS SOMETHING I DON'T UNDERSTAND. I HOPE THAT YOU CAN HELP ME.THANK YOU. *AK

PARKED ON AN INCLINE AND VEHICLE CUT OUT DURING THREE ATTEMPTS TO PULL OFF IN FIRST GEAR AND SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE IS DRIFTING BACKWARD WITH NO BRAKING AT ALL, AND PEDAL LOCKED IN THE UP POSTION. CAN DUPLICATE! WITH KEY IN IGNITION AND ENGINE OFF, BRAKE PEDAL LOCKS IN UP POSITION AND BRAKING SYSTEM WILL NOT STOP VEHILCE. WITHOUT KEY IN IGNITION MANUAL BRAKING WORKS! WITH KEY IN THE ACC POSTION, AND VEHICLE NOT RUNNING, POWER BRAKES LOCKED IN UP POSITION AND NO BRAKING POSSIBLE!!! TURN KEY OFF, TAKE KEY OUT OF IGNITION, AND MANUAL BRAKING STOPS VEHICLE!! POWER BRAKING APPEARS TO DISABLE MANUAL BRAKING, EVEN WITH POWER BRAKE INOPERABLE DUE TO ENGINE BEING OFF, EITHER TURNED OFF OR CONKED OUT!!

THIS VEHICAL AND I THINK MANY OTHER TOYOTA VEHICALS FALSLY SHOW A DASH LIGHT TO INDICATE A BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM WHEN THERE IS NO PROBLEM. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THE BRAKE FLUID WAS LOW BUT IT WAS BETWEEN THE MIN/MAX LEVELS INDICATED. I PRESSED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADMITTED THAT THE FLUID LEVEL HAD TO BE AT THE MAX MARK OR THE DASH LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAVE A BUNCH OF PEOPLE COME TO THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO THIS FALSE INDICATION. IN MY OPINION THE VEHICAL SHOULD NOT GIVE A FALSE INDICATION OF TROUBLE WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM WHEN THE FLUID LEVEL IS CORRECT. I THINK MANY PEOPLE ARE WASTING TIME GOING TO THE DEALER DUE TO THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT. *AK

Tires, Oct 19, 2001
WE PURCHASED A TOYOTA TACOMA WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM TOYOTA OF EASLEY IN AUGUST OF 2000. WHEN THE TRUCK HAD ABOUT 12000 MILES ON IT, THE FRONT TIRES WERE WEARING IRREGULARLY. I CALLED THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THE FRONT END NEEDED ALIGNMENT SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THEM TO DO SO. SINCE THE FRONT TIRES BY THEN WERE WORN PRETTY BADLY, I ASKED THEM TO ROTATE THE TIRES. THEY WOULD NOT ROTATE THE TIRES UNDER WARRANTY, SO I PAID THEM TO ROTATE THE TIRES. THEY DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO TALK ABOUT REPLACING THE WORN TIRES. AFTER ABOUT ANOTHER 12000 MILES, THE FRONT TIRES HAVE WORN THE SAME WAY AGAIN. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID TO BRING IT IN. I TOLD THEM THAT ALIGNING THE FRONT END DID NOT FIX IT BEFORE AND AFTER ARGUING WITH THEM FOR SOME TIME, THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD CONTACT TECHNICAL SERVICE AND SEE WHAT MIGHT BE CAUSING THE PROBLEM. THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO CALL ME BACK AND LET ME KNOW WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE NOT CALLED. IT'S BEEN ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF. I HAVE CALLED THEM SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN AND EACH TIME WAS TOLD THEY HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING FROM TECHNICAL SERVICE YET. I CALLED TWO DAYS AGO AND THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME AGAIN, THAT HE WOULD CALL ME BACK. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN AND EACH TIME, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT HE WAS OUT DOING A TEST DRIVE. I HAVE LEFT MY NAME AND NUMBER AND ASKED THAT HE RETURN MY CALL AND AS OF YET HE HAS NOT CALLED ME BACK. I PRESENTLY HAVE A TRUCK THAT IS A YEAR OLD AND HAS EXCESSIVE WEAR ON ALL FOUR TIRES NOW AND HAVE FRONT END PROBLEMS THAT I AM UNABLE TO GET THE DEALERSHIP TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT. CAN YOU OFFER ANY SUGGESTIONS? THANK YOU. DAVID LOFTIS. *AK

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF A PROBLEM I RECENTLY HAVE HAD WITH A 2000 TOYOTA TACOMA PICK-UP. I HAVE 15000 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND RECENTLY ON A LONG ROAD TRIP I RECEIVED A FLAT DUE TO A NAIL ON THE HIGHWAY. IN CHANGING THE TIRE I SNAPPED 2 LUG STUDS. NOW I HAVE OWNED TRUCK FOR 20 PLUS YEARS AND HAVE NEVER SNAPPED A LUG OFF A WHEEL. I HAD IT SERVICED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO TOO MUCH TORQUE AND STILL FIND THIS HARD TO BELIEVE. I CANT IMAGINE THAT I COULD GIVE THIS THAT MUCH TORQUE WITH A TIRE IRON TO SNAP OFF THE STUDS. I FEEL IT IS POOR QUALITY STEEL OR A FAILURE IN THE STEEL DESIGN ITSELF. I AM VERY CONCERN FOR FUTURE LUGS BREAKING WHEN TRAVELING AND FEAR A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND ADVISE ME IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND WHAT CAN I DO TO PROTECT MY FAMILY AND ME. THANK YOU.*AK
