I probably sound stupid but just curious!

I was wondering about what a TSB is? Is there a list of all the TSB's? Looking for any and all information i can get. Thanks.

 

a T.S.B. is a Technical Service Bulletin put out by the manufacturer to repair an issue with a vehicle. It is NOT a recall. If vehicle is out of warranty and you need a repair and there is a TSB for it you will have to pay for that repair. There is a list of them. Just use the search before the Evils ones awaken.

 

Technical (or Toyota) Service Bulletin = TSB

 

Technical Service Bulletin. The TSB provides a method to diagnose a problem, the parts needed to correct it and the procedure that should be followed for the repair. Not all TSB's apply to all vehicles which is why not everyone has all the TSB's completed on their truck. You have to prove to the dealership that you need the work completed on your vehicle in order for them to do the work. If it's a safety issue, it becomes a safety recall and becomes mandatory for the dealership to do the work.

There ya' go...

 

thanks now i understand. I will look into the ones i need done.

 

If your info is correct and you have a 2007, good luck getting them done unless you have the extended warranty or you feel like paying out of pocket. Hopefully you have a nice dealership, some people have had some luck getting them done out of warranty. Doesn't hurt to ask I suppose...

 

yeah i feel you i do have an extended warranty but i havent completely ran out of my powertrain yet, but if anything happens i now know what route to take.

 

He's right....Just noticed you're an 07 like me. I tried for the rear spring/harsh ride TSB and missed it by 3 months...basic warranty period is 36K miles or 36 months, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. I was good on miles, but bad on date of manufacture (or maybe in service date...can't remember the term they used to define the date...frickin' sometimers again)

Still good to look at the list and decide which ones you might want to do out of pocket.

I'm going to look at a Dakar leaf package or maybe just a AAL (add a leaf)...need to do more research to decide.
