    There are over a million of 3rd gen Tacomas running around. Statistically there will be a few with problems and it sounds like yours is one. Bummer and good luck.

    Nothing to see here folks, just another top end failure like it's a Dodge 4.7 that was overheated or was on extended oil change intervals.

    Keep in mind that Toyota has sold over 1.2 million of this model Tacoma. Although it sucks it is far from a common problem.

    Which dealership is working on your truck?

    I was recently at Capital Toyota having routine maintenance done.

    If it's them, I hope they do you right.
