Two different YouTube Reviewers "broke" their new Taco....what are the chances?!
-
Between this and TFLs front axle failure sounds like the truck was engineered by accountants. Engineered to be just good enough under normal driving conditions, with no extra robustness. How the mighty have fallen.
-
Let me translate Toyotas corporate speak. "Yes it's probably our fault but we built our reputation on reliability. So no we are not going to own up to it."
-
It doesn't Smell like Clutch.. It's the smell of a Recall 😂
-
The politeness of Canadians is near British. We all know that truck didn't even red line.
-
Toyota of Japan needs to fire the US division yesterday…
-
Imagine naming this truck of the year when you didn't even drive it... oh wait.
-
If he had downshifted from 5th to 1st all 3 of you would have gotten whiplash. Toyota's lying their asses off to save face.
-
One of the most overrated, overhyped, and over priced vehicles I’ve seen
-
TFL's new Tacoma had a failure in the front diff. Not a good sign to have multiple different failures.
-
I think its pretty clear rhey know they didnt miss the shift. They just dont want to lose their access to future Toyota products by standing their ground and arguing it was not user error.
-
Pretty sad to see Toyota underbuilding things. I caught a lot of heat in my videos for this, this is not the only manual that has died. The rev match shows that it should not have destroyed the clutch. Thanks for being as honest as you can with this and actually releasing the video :). Toyota engineers have already been on camera saying they detuned the manual because the drivetrain couldn't handle the force of someone dropping the clutch if it wasn't detuned, I think we can read between the lines.
-
As a Toyota guy this is painful to watch. These trucks are under built.
-
Soooooo, the manual has 8 fewer horsepower and 7 fewer pound feet of torque because, as the engineer said, the manual couldn't handle the extra power. So basically, the manual is built at the absolute limit of what it can handle with barely any margin of extra strength for longevity sake. That doesn't sound like a good combo reliability or long term endurance.
-
Love that a button to hold you from rolling is revolutionary, before we just had a hand brake.
-
My friend at work bought the new Tundra with the twin turbo V6. Three weeks into ownership the engine blew and Toyota replaced it under warranty. Tundra, Tacoma both having serious malfunctions. Toyota, are you buying parts from the lowest bidders???
-
The manual cant handle 280hp? That's pathetic.
-
Toyota 2024 is not the company its reputation was built on.
-
Fragile that, I have had many manual cars and missed many a shift and over revved many an engine and have never had any of them break. This is nonsense.
-
I highly doubt that man missed 3rd gear, these new Tacos will be a nightmare in a few years. Just wait until fan boys start "overlanding" with 35's or bigger tires.
