    Ok got my 2012acsess cab in shop to get clutch job under the wart. Instead of the tsb. They claimed my v id dont match. I know that bs. But they will fix it. They gave me a loaner which is a runner dc shortbox (2012 with 3500 miles). I will say it a neat taco with lots of room. The only thing i noticed that going 65 mph. There is a slight vibe at that speed. I assume its the driveshaft is warp.

    Mind if I ask how you know "Know that bs"? If the VIN does not match the list of affected vehicles according to Toyota records, then it just doesn't match. As a dealer it would be in their best interest to replace it either way. Besides, if they are offering to do it under warranty, why worry? As for the driveline vibration, do some searches. There are a few threads that talk about it on here.

    First off, if they look up your vin and it says "no TSB" then im pretty sure they are not trying to pull a "fast one on ya". It does not apply to all trucks. Second, if you typed full words and complete sentences it would be easier for us to understand. Just saying

    Tacofire...frist of all I was at work,, during break time with a smartphone tring to get a quick respond.. thus the lousy spelling and clueless sentences. I got big fingers to try tap the damn little itty bitty keyboard. nice bashing.. :duel: but no harm done.
    The issue was taken care as of today..
