Consumer Description

DURING CERTAIN CONDITIONS LIKE HARD BRAKING OR REGULAR BRAKING IN INCUMBENT WEATHER THE REAR WHEELS WOULD LOCK UP. TOOK TO THE DEALER 9/2020 THEY REPLACE THE REAR DRUMS, AND THE ISSUE CAME BACK SHORTLY AFTER THE REPAIRS. I TOOK IT BACK 12/03/2020 THEY REPLACED MORE INTERNAL FINAL DRIVE PARTS LIKE AXLE SHAFTS AND WHEEL BEARINGS SHOES, AND DRUMS AGAIN. THE LOCK UP WOULD DISENGAGE AS SOON AS THE BRAKE PEDDLE IS RELEASED. ON 2/9/21 WITH 6K MILES MY TACOMA NOW LOCKED UP AFTER TWO PRIOR ATTEMPTS BY THE DEALER TO RESOLVE MY ISSUE. THE TRUCK IS IN THE SHOP AGAIN THIRD TIME SAME ISSUES
