This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I have a 2022 white Toyota Tacoma trd4x4. The paint is chipping in the inside fender on the left side. I did some research and looks like there was a recall for this very issue and that Toyota was reimbursing for the repairs. I called Toyota today and they said that I-??m vin doesn-??t fall in that recall. A vehicle that is less that 3 years old new shouldn-??t have the paint chipping. I don-??t drive the vehicle much and don-??t use it in extreme conditions. They refused to help and stated I-??m out of warranty. The recall was for the same issue I am having on all white tacomas on the inner fender and window areas. They didn-??t want to help because my white is not the same code. But thought it was funny because it-??s the same issue, same color and defective in the same place. On top of that, paint shouldn-??t chip in 3 years from new to now when the vehicle has been garage kept and has only 20k miles. I would really appreciate you guys opening an investigation on this please. Thank you!
Within 6 months the new vehicle showed significant corrosion on 80% of the frame welds where the frame is connected to other structural parts, suspension and steering. This was taken to Toyota as a warranty claim. Ultimately a Washington State lemon law arbitration awarded replacement of the vehicle (Wash State AG File# 240122 5 September 2024)
