1 Brake Grinding Noise problem of the 2014 Toyota Tacoma

Failure Date: 12/04/2013

First let me start with how I ended up with this horrible vehicle. We had a 2012 chevy diesel, amazing truck, great truck. Diesel prices had been rising and was just costing to much to drive and we wanted to start saving some money. We shopped around and ended up looking at the Toyota Tacoma, not the best quality but none the less decent gas mileage (or so we thought). Since day one we have not been able to get better then 15 mpg on the highway! absolutely ridiculous! 14 city! have had fuel efficiency test done and thats what they came up with as well and claim nothing is wrong. Corporate refuses to do anything and claim nothing is wrong, yet everyone I know with this same truck is getting no less then 18 mpg highway. I hope I'm the only one dealing with this because the small truck gets worse gas mileage then any full size truck I've ever owned. I will never buy a Toyota again nor will anyone I know or anyone in my family. Stay as far away as possible for Toyota. Now onto the track control, it likes to activate at random. If your sitting at a stand still and try to drive forward with just the slightest roll back it goes crazy! and the brakes, if your going down a hill and you use the brake for more then roughly 30 sec it will start to vibrate, make a horrible grinding noise and the steering wheel starts shaking. . . . The quality of this vehicle is poor and I must add that they do not stand behind their product nor with they fix it. All they will tell you is "well sorry if your unhappy with your vehicle, we will send you arbitration paperwork. ".

2 Brake Grinding Noise problem of the 2006 Toyota Tacoma

Failure Date: 10/20/2010

My 2006 Toyota Tacoma is doing the same thing the prius was recalled for with the brakes. Any time I slow speeds and step on the brakes especially when I go over a bump it does not stop and you hear a grinding noise. I have contacted my Toyota dealer and I keep getting the run around, told a technician cannot find anything and that they will call me no call yet! I need help, I am afraid for my life to get into this truck it is unsafe, and I am not getting any help. We have a son, and have never let him on due to the unsafety of this vehicle. All I wan is for Toyota to fix this as I know it is the same problem that they are having with the prius and nobody will hear me out or help. I now turn to you for assistance please I beg of you.
