In owners' own words
The contact owns a 2015 Toyota Tacoma. While driving 60 mph, a whistling sound was heard from the driver and passenger side doors. The failure occurred constantly. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the weather stripping of both doors failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000. Structure · reported at 10,000 miles
Paint starting to peel on exterior of both passenger and rear passenger side doors above window frame. Apparently Toyota is aware of the problem in models with the Super White paint color and has issued a recall for their vehicles with certain VIN's. My VIN is not included in the recall although the paint peeling is identical to other vehicles that are included in the recall. Thank you. Structure
Both my truck and my dads truck make model and year and both of the frame are rusting on the frame and frame welds as well as the leaf springs are rusting and starting to flatten out while parked and the drive shaft and the rear differential is starting to rust very quickly as well they are just daily drivers and we keep them very clean and live in florida so we don't have road salt Structure · reported at 15,000 miles
