Issues Poll

As someone previously stated, can you consolidate the 'low transmission fluid'? You have it listed twice.

 

won't allow. i will have to add both issues as one in my head

 

What about "too many bros complimenting your truck, not enough hoes complimenting" option?

 

Seeing as I'm a girl and the guys check the truck out a lot........hahahahah. have yall had the parking lot stalkers? The ones that drive over, or walk up to you to ask about the truck? I think they bout die when I tell them it's MY truck. ...not hubs or brothers or sons..... smh

 

I have never seen a lady drive the Gen3. I'd prob becoming one of those parking lot stalkers.

 

I picked no issues at all. Zerks were dry, but I pushed out plenty of assembly grease so I wouldn't call that an actual issue. Especially since I can't recall ever having a new grease joint that used the zerk for greasing at initial assembly, truck, tractor, or otherwise.

 

I love my truck. And the looks and questions I get asked. it serves it purpose....carries us, kayaks, stand up paddleboards, and random crap!

 

So far I've experienced: low tranny fluid, BSM not available issue, low diffs fluid, interior rattle (passenger seat), loose U-bolts, dry zerks.

This isn't on the list, but the water in the license plate light housing (LH side). There's a couple threads or mentions of this and some had issues with the RH side.

 

Why is low trans fluid listed 3 times?

 

Just today my auto unlock from the driver's door handle stopped working. It doesn't unlock ANY of the doors

I went into the settings and it showed all doors listed so I unchecked it and checked it again to see if it would rest.

It worked th next time I used it but then right after that it is no longer working again.

The truck only has 2,100 miles on her and is barely 2 months old. I'll turn off the fob and see if that works and if still not working, I'll swap out the battery in the key fob.

Anyone else ever experience this?

 

Sounds like a weak battery... try the other fob... U got 2 ... yes..??

 

I'll add a new one. Went to install my Prinsu rack today and found that one of the pre drilled threads in the roof can't have a bolt threaded into it because there was a mistake at the factory welding the metal up there. Time to pay the dealer a visit

 

None of the above. BUT I did have the Crankshaft Position Sensor fail at 5,000 miles. Had to tow it to the dealer. Took a week for the part to come in. Replaced and back on the road and five miles later the check engine light came back on. Turns out it also caused the catalytic converter to fail due to running too rich from the engine misfiring. Back at the shop and 15 days later it's finally fixed. I was told these sensors just simply fail. But I don't know. I hope it's not a poor engineering fault with the location of the sensors or something. I towed a trailer and hooked up the tail lights the day prior to it failing. I don't know if that had something to do with it or just coincidence. I don't want to be back at the shop driving a loaner Corolla again for 2 weeks!

 

Didn't feel new thread worthy, but I've got a quick question. Is anyone else's shift knob a bit loose? As in rotates side to side? I don't remember mine doing that but it suddenly shifted sideways yesterday when I was moving it into drive and now I can quite easily rotate it. Can't go 360º due to the leather boot, but it feels like it would otherwise.

 

Is it just your knob that's the problem, or is your shaft a little loose..??

 

Seems to be the whole thing, it kind of feels like the shaft attached to it spins a bit when I feel it through the boot, but I can't be certain.

Here's what it does:


Just curious if this is "normal" and I just noticed it, or if it somehow got out of place. If it's not supposed to be like that, then I just found #10 for my list when I bring her in for the 10K.

 

Brain fart......

 

For me, most noticeable is steering wheel buzzing and shudder starting at about 17-20 mph when coming to a stop.

4x4 OR M/T built 3/11 in Texas.

Still love the truck and it is much better than the last vehicle I had so I'll deal with it until Toyota comes out with a fix (hopefully). I'll phone in the issues to them but I won't be sitting at the dealer while people scratch their heads.

 

Only 28% of people having no issues. I realize people with issues are more likely to join this gen 3 forum than those who do not have issues but still seems awfully high.

 

You have a couple duplicates in the list. And the tranny searching (for the most part) goes away after it has learned your driving habits. I don't know if I would call that an issue or not.
