NHTSA Complaint #11031877 — 2017 TOYOTA TACOMA

THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD GET STUCK AND NOT DISPLAY AN INCREASE OR DECREASE IN SPEED WHILE DRIVING. OR IT WOULD DISPLAY AN INCREASE IN SPEED UP TO 60 MPH AND THEN TREAT 60 AS 0. EX. I WAS GOING 45 BUT IT READ THAT I WAS GOING 95. OR SOMETIMES, IT WOULD JUST INCREASE ALL THE WAY TO 120 MPH AND THEN STOP. TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN BACK ON DID NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THE GAUGE WOULD STILL READ WHERE IT WAS WHEN THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. I WAS NEVER SURE OF THE SPEED I WAS GOING AND BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER WITHIN A MONTH OF THE OCCURRENCE. THE TRUCK WAS ONLY 10 MONTHS OLD. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 2 MONTHS. THEY ARE WAITING ON TOYOTA TO CREATE & SHIP A NEW SPEEDOMETER BECAUSE TOYOTA IDENTIFIED THAT THE SPEEDOMETERS IN SOME OF THEIR MAKE/MODELS WERE FAULTY.
