2020 Toyota tacoma bad transmission at 30k miles

Hello I have a 2020 tacoma sport and I just hit my 30k mark and took it for an oil change and I told them that I felt that the tranns has been acting up after leaving it they called 2 hours later telling me the tranns was bad and needs to be inspected further after the mechanic driving it he said he feels the tranns jerking like pulling and they hade to drop the oil and check for shavings etc he couldn't se anything so I got a call yesterday that they had to warranty the tranns and had to put a new in anyone had any issues with a 2020 tacoma

 

Id bet the tech drained the Trans fluid instead. hopefully, that's all it is. I haven't seen many posts, if any on Trans failure.

 

A lot of third gens come low on transmission fluid from the factory. Its also important to keep in mind that the dealer wants to change a transmission, they get a bunch of man hours to bill and toyota corporate foots the bill. All they did to trouble shoot was look at the fluid and test drive it. The transmission may very well be fine, but they want to do the change.

 

Regardless, I'd be stoked that they're actually handling it.

I literally only have a Tacoma because Chevy refused to make good on my failing transmission in my '17 Colorado. I loved that truck, but it was in the shop FIVE times at 30k miles. They never replaced anything and only changed fluids, reflashes, etc. Last time, they emptied the fluid and didn't fill it all the way. Led to major shifting issues and being stuck on the side of the road. They still refused to make anything right, so I traded it in after they added more fluid and another flash.

8k miles on my Tacoma and I couldn't be happier.
