2001 Toyota Tacoma Standard Pickup review from North America
"Cheap Bench Seats really tear at your back and Automatic Trans is really failure prone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission Automatic Failed 22000 miles pump failure dealer claims bad casting. Second Toyota automatic vehicle with low mileage transmission failure.
General comments?
Recommend buyers avoid automatic Tacoma Transmission Truck mine failed for no reason. I have never towed are fully loaded this truck. Truck used as basic commuter and trans failed and dealer replaced it under warranty. If you buy a Tacoma Truck with Auto make sure you get the extended warranty.
