Things your service guy says

Hour 4 into my 30 minute inspection... They have yet to realize that I'm compiling a list of shit I want for free lol

 

I would start with a warranty....might need to call corporate.

 

Well they put me into a loaner... Wtf am I supposed to do with this?

 

Have you considered a career in accounting?

 

How about a RAV4?

 

I bet you could get those bags of mulch in there no problem.

 

What did your dealer say, when you complained about ...

 

Lol... Dick

My wife has the vagina in our relationship

I was thinking about making a thread of all the shit I put this loaner through... Never buy a used rental

 

This was intended to be a random bullshit thread because my service dept has been ultra helpful. My bad

 

I would definitely put all of your yard shit in that loaner and take some pics. And definitely take it back trashed. LOL

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

 

I really think you need more mulch. Load that fucker up and tie a few bags to the top with the windows down. Pics or it didn't happen.

 

"We rotated your tires"


Lies, lugs still dirty and never asked for lug key....

 

Giving you a wheelbarrow for a loaner vehicle is in poor taste. I'd demand at least a garden tractor with one of those little trailers.

 

Did they tell you any more on what was/is wrong with your truck?

 

The transmission is a hunk of shit. It is throwing codes and apparently it's a recurring issue with some... They have a whole bunch of troubleshooting to do so we shall see

 

OP, was there any indication on your instrument cluster that your Taco was throwing codes? My tranny shifts like a wild horse constantly if I try and travel above 70mph. If I drive at 65mph, it rarely shifts, and fuel mileage comes up from 16mpg to 18mpg. I have over 10,000 and will take it in for service soon. I have NO codes showing, just wondering if mine may have problems too.

 

My truck read trans overtemp on the screen and turned off the engine. That was the culmination of everything. I told them that and they immediately checked everything... Maybe try that at your next service and get it looked at.

Edit: I was on a steep incline and the truck rolled back a few feet when the overtemp occurred... I know they aren't torque monsters but I don't think it should have just rolled back in Drive

 

^That's not good. Something is probably slipping in the transmission.

 

I'm no mechanic... Okay maybe I am... But it didn't seem right. And apparently it wasn't. The service guy said it's a trending issue with the new trans... So atleast it sounds like Toyota is becoming aware

 

Got a call from my service guy, the truck is being finished up. They followed the trans manufacturers troubleshooting tree and came up empty. They are giving me a trans flush per Toyota. So it looks like a little annoyance to have my level checked lol
