I guess I can wait until I get this notice and then take my truck (2008) in for leaf springs and the frame corrosion notice I recently received.
There is a TSB for putting a fourth leaf on the 3 leaf packs if you complain about rough ride with a load, I wonder if they are going to replace them all or just ones that look to be failing? I think I'd rather have the four leaf pack. |

2 years ago I had the rear leaf springs replaced on one of the fleet trucks, 2007 Tacoma. Tampa Spring installed a custom stack, but the rear of the truck sits up higher than the front. Looks silly as all get out. I replaced the springs after one of our employees decide to haul one of our work trailers (small trailer) and it wore the springs out to the point that the rear was sagging 4-5 inches At least I don't have to drive that truck |

Easiest way for me to describe it is it's probably pretty easy to have some of the most reliable vehicles when you don't innovate/take chances and all the components are more or less perfected gen 3 or 4 parts vs. other manufacturers. Just look at all their engines, they are older then dirt tech wise. Even their hybrid Prius is meh and it's the same old shit year in year out. There are diesel cars that do just as good and have twice the power. I mean jez, even their flagship engine the 5.7 V8 has been out for eons. Really toyota? Interiors are always 2nd gen vs. Other manufacturers, they seem sorted dated even when it's a brand new car, should be better for thr money. But they keep being rewarded, I wouldn't change things either if I was them. |

Toyota's reputation is not based in the reality of their products. Leaf springs fail on anything that has leaf springs. Try again. The ONLY vehicle I ever had repeated leaf spring breakage on was a FJ40 [72"]. While Toyota makes a great drive train, I've never been overly impressed with their steel as it tends to be MUCH more rust prone then US vehicles. One tends to have to take extra steps to protect the steel or they will have far more frame and suspension rust issues. I replaced the leaf springs on my 76" FJ40 due to rust swelling, something I seldom see anymore and that was never driven in the salt/winter. OTOH, my 2008 work van [GMC3500] already has several rust perforations in the hood. My "horrible" Dodge Durango.......you could still eat off the frame and leaves, totally rust free. [thanks LPS3] |

Tacomas have had issues with their suspension for a while. My 2010 averaged warranty work every 2000 miles for drivetrain/suspension issues.
Was not impressed with toyota service or all their "master techs". Had all of the TSB's done (one at a time of course....) which included swapping in the heavier duty leaf packs. Go read the tacoma forums, its usually tacked at the top of the page, just be careful the kool-aid is worse then in this thread. |

Well that's nice, you're proud that you haven't flushed your brake fluid, replaced a worn suspension bushing, got new shocks, replaced accessory belt and idlers etc etc. And yet the vehicles are so sought after but most probably have a high amount of neglect due to the very thing that draws them in.
