Transmission issues

I have a 2021 tacoma, the problem i have is when you come to a stop on a hill and take your foot off the brack the truck rolls backwards. I am told by the dealer that it is normal but that does not sit well with me has any one had that experience

 

Depends on how big the hill is. The torque converter can only hold so much at an idle.

 

It’s natural for any vehicle to roll backwards when on a hill. It’s called gravity

 

Unfortunately, the 2021 Tacoma does not come equipped with an anti-gravity device as a standard option.

 

Well at least i got one intelligent response

 

The guy who can’t comprehend gravity shouldn’t be the one judging intelligence.

 

Haha

 

Give this thingy a whirl..

 

Guys, when on a decline my truck moves forward. What do?

 

first time driving a vehicle?

 

Perfectly normal. Take a few minutes and look up how a torque converter works on YouTube (nb - I don't mean this in a demeaning way); once you see that, you will understand why it's happening.

 

Thank you tirediron i appreciate your maturity. I have a 1998 dodge dakota that does not do that so this was new to me.

 

Thank you everyone for your responses i appreciate it

 

All vehicles are different, you can’t expect one truck to do what you’re used to in something else. I’m sure you put on the brakes, right?

 

Yes sir

 

I just reach out the window with this

 

And back in the day, the torque converters were stupidly resistive to any movement, so you have to apply a large force to get them moving.

 

Is it Friday and I missed it?

 

Come on guys, be nice.

In this dingbat's defense, lots of modern vehicles have hill assist. Once you stop on an incline it keeps the brakes applied until you hit the gas. Maybe said dingbat has only driven such nanny vehicles up until now?

That being said...
