There is a recall for the �crankshaft position sensor� for my exact mode and Toyota will not honor my truck for it and that's the code it's reading etc. .
The problems described below have been reported to my dealer gullo Toyota in conroe, TX. The dealer is aware that this model truck has been recalled for rear differential failure and misfiring and stalling. While driving east on fm1097 between lake conroe and willis, TX on 2/06/18, I was required to make a quick stop. A loud bump sound came from beneath the truck. Prior to this stop, the engine had been misfiring from-time-to-time. After the quick stop and the bump sound came from beneath the truck, the engine started misfiring at a constant and violent rate for a distance of about 1 mile. My truck has been making an unusual bump sound which occurs shortly after coming to a stop since I bought it in 2016. The truck has also been misfiring for as long as I have owned it. I am afraid that the bump may be due to loose or broken motor or transmission mounts, loose suspension bolts or the gas tank may be shifting. The misfire may indicate that a fuel line is being restricted when the gas tank shifts position. A pinched or deformed gas line may be starving the fuel pump and causing the engine to misfire. Since the bump sound is delayed and occurs after coming to a stop, it suggest to me that the gas tank may be the cause since the gasoline in the tank is in motion after the truck comes to a stop. I need Toyota to take this defective truck in and repair it for this and all the other problems I have previously reported to Toyota. Toyota needs to provide me with a loaner truck while my truck is being repaired. I have left my truck with Toyota 5 times for the misfire and Toyota has not every provided me with a loaner vehicle. I need a loaner truck while my truck is being repaired.
Brought vehicle in to dealership( northway Toyota) for recall notice, and vehicle stalling. They supposedly repaired it, but vehicle is doing the exact same thing, stalling and malfunction indicators are on. Contacted the dealership but no one will return my call. I don't think they did anything to my vehicle the first time.
The contact owns a 2016 Toyota Tacoma. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign numbers: 17v356000 (engine) and 17v285000 (power train). The parts for the recall repairs were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs. While driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle suddenly stalled. The contact coasted to the side lane and was able to restart the vehicle in approximately three minutes. The check engine indicator also illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the atlantic Toyota dealer who replaced a sensor for the failure regarding the stalling and replaced both catalytic converters. The dealer stated that the parts for the recall repairs were not available. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and informed the contact that the parts were not available. The approximate failure mileage was 24,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available and parts distribution disconnect.
Crank position sensor-truck was in motion on a city street when it bucked and stalled. It started again and I was able to make it a block to my mom's house/garage, where I keep my truck. As I was pulling into the garage, it bucked and stalled again. I replaced the cps (crank position sensor) because I didn't want my truck towed to the dealership. It cost me $110 buck. I'm really glad I wasn't out camping or in traffic when this occurred, as it could have been a much worse situation.
Noticed my Tacoma being slow to down shift to a lower gear when trying to accelerate or it would up shift to a higher gear while accelerating/merging resulting in an unexpected change in acceleration. Also if riding between 20-40 mph the vehicle rides at a very low rpm (~1100) and shimmies the vehicle like it will stall. Vehicle will also "noticeably" down shift while the foot is off the accelerator resulting in an unexpected change in deceleration. The problem seems to be getting worse and now the shifting is starting to jolt the vehicle. While driving at constant speeds the vehicle will randomly surge high in rpms then come right back down. The vehicle is presenting unsafe conditions. Took the vehicle to the dealer multiple times. 1st time they topped off the transmission fluid as it was low from the factory. 2nd time they are aware of the issue and others were having it as well and the transmission ecu was re-flashed. This still did not resolve the problem. Brought the vehicle back a 3rd time and they didn't see a problem with the vehicle. Brought it back a 4th time to be seen by a field specialist and the issue could be duplicated but there is no fix at this time because the vehicle is operating as designed. Vehicle currently has less than 2500 miles on it. Not sure why you would design a vehicle to do this.
