When accelerating through 20 mph a vibration/shudder is very noticeable. The more aggressive the acceleration the more noticeable the vibration. The vibration is also noted when decelerating from full speed. When in a coasting or braking deceleration a vibration is noted around 20 mph. When accelerating or decelerating the vibration is transient at 20 mph and always dampens out or goes away. Without even bothering for a test drive my Toyota dealer attributed the vibration to "mud build up on the brake caliper". I shared a Toyota service bulletin quoted by other Tacoma owners but the dealer said the bulletin was no longer effective.

After my taco was delivered to the dealer I drove it off the lot with 6 miles on it and while driving home I noticed what appeared to be a noise that sounded like radio feedback. I took it back to the dealer and after doing some checking was told that it was nothing serious and was scheduled to bring it in the following week. Upon taking it in and having it checked it was determined that there was a problem with it and that the noise was duplicated. They did replace the trans with new factory trans and I asked to be notified as to what was determined to be the failure. I have been contacted by Toyota however was told that they would not divulge to me what had failed and was also told that it was proprietary as the trans belongs to Toyota. After doing some research I have concluded that they did not want to tell me because they may very well be a problem with the trans. As there have been syncro issues. I find this disturbing at best and therefore now have the mind set that Toyota does not live up to there customer satisfaction pledge. I have bought now 2 Toyota's and may never ever buy one again.

Brand new vehicle experiencing extreme vibration when accelerating. This vibration is felt throughout the vehicle and has been duplicated to Toyota. Faster acceleration results in stronger vibrations. Only explanation from Toyota was that the there is an issue with the rear suspension (leaf springs). Toyota engineers have been to the dealership and have not been able to provide a valid solution other than to wait. I have spoken to other dealerships that state the Tacoma and 4runner are affected. After dropping off my vehicle many times, this issue has still not been resolved.

When accelerating after a stop there is a hesitation or stall. This happened with our 2010 Tacoma, also. We traded for a 2013 and this truck does the same thing. Dealership says the transmission is searching for a gear. It is a a safety issue because when you pull out in front of oncoming traffic the hesitation could cause enough of a delay to cause an accident. This happens after a complete stop and also after a slow down.

During normal (mild acceleration) the truck vibrates and shudders. The problem was presented to the local dealer and a TSB was performed but no improvement. Dealership and Toyota company refused to fix the issue.
