Suspension, rear, springs, leaf spring assembly, leafSep 29, 2014
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2005-2011 Toyota Tacoma Pre-Runner and 4x4 vehicles manufactured September 14, 2009, to October 11, 2010. In the affected vehicles, one of the leaf springs may fracture due to stress or corrosion. While being driven, the broken leaf could move out of position and contact surrounding components including the fuel tank, possibly puncturing the tank and causing a fuel leak.
If the fuel tank leaks fuel from being punctured, there is an increased risk of a fire.
Toyota will notify owners and dealers will install new rear leaf spring assemblies. The recall began on January 29, 2016. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.

Seat beltsAug 7, 2013
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 Tacoma Access Cab vehicles manufactured September 14, 2004, through March 29, 2010; and model year 2011 Tacoma Access Cab vehicles manufactured July 1, 2010, through September 7, 2011. If the access doors are repeatedly and forcefully closed, the screws that attach the seat belt pre-tensioner to the seat belt retractor can loosen over time. If the screws loosen completely, the seat belt pre-tensioner and the retractor spring cover could detach from the seat belt retractor.
If the seat belt pre-tensioner detaches from the seat belt assembly, the seat belt pre-tensioner will not perform as designed, increasing the risk of injury in a severe crash.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat belt assemblies. Based on the inspection, the seat belt assembly will be replaced or new pre-tensioner screws will be installed with thread-locking sealant and a retractor spring cover with stopper ribs to prevent loosening of the screws. These services will be provided at no cost to the owner. The recall began during February 2014. Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V604000 (SUSPENSION) WAS RECEIVED IN OCTOBER OF 2014. AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE GIVEN. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

WHEN HEAT CONTROL DIAL IS TURNED FROM COLD TO HOT, AN INSIDE DOOR WITHIN THE HEATING/COOLING SYSTEM CLOSES OFF. THIS KEEPS ANY HOT AIR FROM BLOWING INTO THE CAB AND THROUGH THE DEFROSTER. THIS DECREASED AIR VOLUME FROM HVAC VENTS WILL NOT HEAT THE CAB IN COLD WEATHER AND WILL NOT PROPERLY DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD IN WINTRY CONDITIONS AS NO HOT AIR WILL BLOW. TOYOTA SERVICE BULLETIN (T-SB-0072-09) COVERS THIS COSTLY REPAIR. THE INABILITY OF THE DEFROSTER TO PROVIDE HOT AIR TO THE WINDSHIELD HAS CAUSED ME TO PULL OVER SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO INABILITY TO SEE THROUGH IT EITHER FROM INTERNAL CONDENSATION OR FROM ICE BUILDUP DURING TIMES OF PRECIPITATION AND FREEZING CONDITIONS. FURTHER, WITH THE HEATER NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE HOT AIR INTO THE CAB, OCCUPANT SAFETY IS AT RISK IN TIMES OF EXTREME WEATHER DURING BOTH DRIVING AND/OR TIMES THE VEHICLE MIGHT BECOME STRANDED. THIS CONDITION OCCURS IN ALL MODES OF OPERATION, BOTH DRIVING OR IDLING IN PARK. AIR VELOCITY TAPERS OFF AS THE HEAT CONTROL IS INCREASED (TO THE RIGHT) TO THE HIGHER SETTINGS EFFECTIVELY CUTTING OFF HOT AIR FLOW INTO THE CAB. THIS IS BOTH WHEN THE VENTS ARE OPEN AND WHEN IN RECIRCULATION MODE. SEE ATTACHED FILE FOR REFERENCE. PRIMARY SAFETY CONCERN IS VISIBILITY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD DURING INCLIMATE WEATHER AND OCCUPANT SAFETY IN COLDER CONDITIONS. THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE- BUT HAS RECENTLY BECOME A VERY SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN DUE TO RECENT WEATHER CONDITIONS AND TEMPERATURES. I CANNOT LOAD THE PDF FILE (T-SB-0072-09) AS IT IS TOO LARGE.

DUE TO COMBINATION OF THE SPIRAL CABLE DESIGN AND CHARACTERISTICS UNIQUE TO THE CHASSIS COMPONENTS OF THE TACOMA, STEERING WHEEL VIBRATION ('FLUTTER') CAUSED FRICTION BETWEEN THE FLEXIBLE FLAT CABLE (FFC) AND THE RETAINER IN THE SPIRAL CABLE ASSEMBLY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS OCCURRED IN A FFC WITH SIXTEEN-CHANNEL CIRCUITS AND DAMAGED CERTAIN CIRCUITS ON THE FLAT CABLE THAT PROVIDES CONNECTIVITY TO THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG MODULE. AS A RESULT, CONNECTIVITY WAS LOST AND THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG MAY HAVE BECOME DEACTIVATED, CAUSING IT TO NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. THIS COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE DRIVER. THE 2007 TOYOTA TACOMA WITH A FFC WITH SEVEN CHANNEL-CIRCUITS HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. INDICATIONS OF A DEVELOPING PROBLEM WAS FIRST NOTED THROUGH ILLUMINATION OF THE AIRBAG WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND ROTATING THE STEERING WHEEL. VEHICLE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000 MILES AT THAT TIME. INITIALLY THE LAMP WOULD CYCLE OFF AND ON WITH THE FREQUENCY OF THE LAMP IN THE ON POSITION INCREASING OVER TIME. THIS SUGGESTED THAT THE LOSS OF CONNECTIVITY WAS A RESULT OF INCREASED WEAR IN CERTAIN CIRCUITS. EVENTUALLY THE LAMP WOULD STAY ON CONTINUOUSLY INDICATING THAT ALL CONNECTIVITY WAS LOST IN THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER FOR SERVICE AT A MILEAGE OF 129,094 AND THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED AT A COST OF $461.83 PLUS TAX.
