| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2005 tacoma, trd sport pkg, 6 speed manual behind a v6. at about 27k the clutch pedal started making this horrendous squeak. the dealer performed a tsb to replace the clutch pedal assembly. squeak was gone for about 6k miles but the pedal sticks. since that first replacement of the pedal assembly, the dealer greases it every 6-8k miles because the squeak keeps returning and the pedal still sticks! they did replace the pedal assembly a second time however now the pedal feels like it is going to fall off and it still sticks. the last straw was when i brought it to the dealer and they told me that it was "excessive use of the pedal, the truck was not made to drive in traffic". what the heck was it made for?? i drive the highway everyday to work and yes, i occasionally get caught in traffic due to an accident, but that might happen once every other week! toyota corporate was no help, they said i would have to work with the dealer because i was out of warranty. the dealer doesn't return phone calls and i am stuck with a truck that has a bad clutch pedal! *tr |
