    I wanted to know if anyone that has a leveling kit is having issues with the BSM in their Tacoma's, I had zero issues for the but now the BSM does not work properly. The dealership is blaming the leveling kit saying that it is the reason there is a fault.

    Anyone have any similar experiences?

    I have been wondering the same thing with mine along with mine, is there a calibration or anything that needs to be or can be done? Same thing with the reverse sensors

    Is you truck level? How would that have an affect on BSM?
    Take it to another dealer... it can't be that touchy...

    I've actually heard that they're REAL touchy. This was when I was researching getting a rear bumper made. This is why most fabricators won't touch that system. Toyota is able to calibrate it. I'm sure it's not cheap to have it done, unless you have a kind-hearted dealer.

    I leveled my truck out when I installed my lift and all the sensors (BSM, back up, cross traffic) all seem to work correctly.

    It was not going off for the first three months, this just started happening, they tried to tell me that they need to bring it back to stock in order to figure it out. I just laughed!
