2017 Toyota Tacoma

noise

Exhaust and interior noise prohibits use of voice command feature.

but no matter it just sounds like noisy lifters.

Rode smooth and didnt have any road noise.

Interior fit is poor, several noises and rattles.

Road noise-wind noise is not acceptable - chevy/Honda is better.

*   Excessive wind noice at highway speeds. *.

You go from park to drive and it would make this awful grinding noise.

but not hear the wind noise like the side windows.

windshield

Also, the windshield is so short, that with the placement of the rearview mirror I cannot see cars to the right of me at a four way stop.

The seats are too high for front passengers the glare of the sun coming off the front hood the Heating and Cooling gauges hard to see steering wheel doesn't adjust far enough back windshield extends to high up sun glare

The first time it rained I attempted to turn on the intermittent windshield wipers and about broke off the lever, it DOES NOT HAVE intermittent wipers unlike the last 3 Toyota's I owned.

back-up mirrors are too big--- poor visiblity when pulling out into intercetion--very dangerous-- also windshield  has poor vision in corners blocked out by upholstery.

radio

Skip the extended warranty, it's a waste money, also this dealership does not like to honor warranties, radio keeps changing colors they tell me needs update, 4 updates lol still changing colors.

but very simple inside, the engine is not that great, it is slow  feels like the transmision is slow to change gears, it is not a gas saver truck, the sound sistem is bad, the radio is already giving me problems.

however the display when viewing XM satellite could be better.

lumbar

There's only a few thing's missing that make this truck perfect, one electric seats with lumbar support &#38; free gas for life.

It is very comfortable to sit in due to the lumbar support.

acceleration

I'd say our only complaint would be the hesitation when 1st starting to accelerate.

The only complaint I have is the electronic acceleration.

The acceleration could be better and the front seats could be improved for comfort,

I was very disappointed in the acceleration of this vehicle, I have owned several Toyotas  and own a highlander at this time.

Don't get me wrong there is plenty of power to accelerate and pass on the highway, it just has to downshift to get it.

but on road acceleration could be better
Inside features are easy to use and can be used many different ways

The 2017 Toyota Tacoma Pickup Truck is made by Toyota

I purchased my 2017 Toyota Tacoma SR5  &#38; it has been the best vehicle I ever bought.

The Tacoma satisfied most of my needs, and is like new.

I traded a Mazda in for my 3rd gen Tacoma So far I have been happy with my truck it’s a stick I find it to be comfortable for my height It goes everywhere I tried it for the first time in snow and surprisingly it was fun and handled well It seems to like gas

I love my 2017 Tacoma v6 it stands true to the Toyota name and is still dependable.

My Tacoma Sport double cab has been the best car or truck I've ever owned.

These Tacoma’s are way overpriced pieces of ****.

I am impressed with the Tacoma's drivablility and performance both on and off the road.

engine

I had a 2015 Taco and loved the engine and transmission,

The engine has all the power in the world

Amazing that the 6 cylinder gets as good or better mileage as my old 4.

I love how it works in all weather conditions and the power of this four-cylinder engine, power and low consumption, ideal for my lifestyle as I work away from my home driving about 66 miles a day and gas consumption is ideal.

The 6 cylinder is capable of towing 6500 pounds, so it moves my 4,000 pound boat easily.

The gas mileage wasn?t that great for the size of the truck?s engine and totally gutless.

The Tacoma still is has loud engine noise when you accelerate to enter a busy highway.

Never had any issues with engine, transmission or drive line.

ride

but it rides so well with and without heavy loads that I can’t complain.

Truck is comfortable and rides great, great looking truck as well.

Great ride, great gas mileage. Comfortable.

This one rides smooth and has the inside space that I like.

This truck exceeded my expectations as far as legroom, creature comforts, ride and stability.

The ride is excellent, with a stiff suspension that feels like a truck, not softly sprung like the Ridgeline or Colorado/Canyon (I test-drove before my purchase).

comfortable

It's comfortable, powerful, reliable, roomy, and versatile.

It rides great and is very comfortable on trips.

Great off-road, comfy on street, good fuel mileage and can haul all the extra toys and gear.

The seats are comfortable although there’s not a lot of legroom in the back

My Tacoma 2017 is much more than I expected, 48000 miles, it feels like new, considering that my other car is a Corolla 2018 zero miles, feels the Tacoma with the same level of comfort and manageability.

reliable

It’s a beautiful reliable truck I’ve only changed a battery and they hold their value very well I recommend

Everything I was looking for in a truck dependable good gas mileage plenty of power great in the snow and ice and pulls my trailer and sxs without any problem

but its solid and reliable and does everything a truck is supposed to do

Its a good looking car and very reliable.

It’s reliable and what a truck should be and they hold their value

This truck met all of my needs, it is safe, dependable, efficient and can handle any job.

2018 Toyota Tacoma

transmission

Driver comfort is lacking, poor front seats (not comfortable and small), The automatic transmission shifting processes are poorly designed.

but in a hilly enviroment when the gear shifts down to keep
the speed the shifting back into the higher gear takes too long which gives then the car a high pitching sound, not nice.

I don't  notice any transmission shifting issues or any stiff driving that some owners complain about.

The worst being the automatic 6 speed transmission.

I have had issues with the transmission since day one,  when the engine is cold, it clunks into gear when its downshifting from 1st to 2nd gear,  again when the engine is cold , it winds into gear when its  shifting up from 3rd and on, when pressing on the gas pedal to get it up to speed, it delays to downshift hunting for the lower gear and therefore there's a delay, and lastly when its cold/warm and in 2nd gear and when the gas pedal is pressed, it delays .

The transmission does hunt for the low gear on the highway

Toyota needs to improve the automatic transmission shifting map.

Gas milage on average 22.5 MPG if they would make it an 8 speed transmission gas mileage would increase.

vehicle is built solid, my 5th Toyota truck, the trans is constantly searching for gears , here in the hills of Pa you are better off leaving it in the power mode , also seat to roof height is tight if your a big guy, 6'3" 290 , you have to duck your head in first other wise you will hit your head on the roof every time other wise runs strong

The dash had numerous rattles when freezing.

Before 20km I had problem, first the wheel shaking, and loud  noise when change from reverse to drive, they told me is brake pads, they change it, the guaranty don't cover, I paid for it, and the noise still, I take it to dealer 4 times and they said is normal,

Really hard down shifts when not even needed, it would slip when accelerating and at steady speeds, at about 1700 rpm in 5th gear there is a roar and vibration that only clears up when it shifts into 6th.

Road noise is markedly quieter in the Tacoma, even with the moonroof option.

brake

Examples include, timing cover leaks, 3rd brake light leaks, rear diff noise.

The brakes are also too sensitive when coming to a stop.

My only complaint is drum brakes in the rear instead of disc.

phone

My phone calls sometimes stop working after talking on the phone for a few minutes.

My one minor complaint is the iPhone interface with the system, it's useless.

My primary complaint is the Entune feature to connect with the phone with the speaker system.

Getting in and out of the truck you hit your head on the top cross over and I am only 5-8

I have to turn off the AC unit when talking on the phone because people complain they can not hear me.

but it's lacking Carplay/Android auto and it requires the Entune App to be installed on the phone, however, communication is all through Bluetooth, which means that you can use the Qi charger and still have the smart functions.

I love everything about this truck, except they need to make room for a garage door opener and make the phone charging pad accessible to older versions of phones.

button is right next to the heater so you accidentally want to turn it all the time also when you try to turn down the volume you accidentally will dial the phone the screen is hard to read during the day overall I'd give it four and a half stars out of 5

warranty

but how to fix it so I’m now looking for a new car because my Toyota Tacoma burn up on side of the road due to something in the dash I am assuming all I figure that until the NTSB steps in or they do a cost analysis the problem won’t be fixed until someone is hurt or they’re forced to take care of the problem I used to love Toyota now I’m looking for Someone who will stand by their product I figure what good is a warranty bumper-to-bumper or not if they won’t fix anything

Great, never going back to Ford , Toyota is too reliable, don’t know why I waited this long, as soon as Ford warranty was up , nothing

Toyota claims it is a "wear" issue and won't honour the warranty.

Excellent truck, Tacoma's are great for everyday use and great in snow.

I really didn't consider anything else because nothing else in it's class compares to the Tacoma.

The Toyota Tacoma is one of the best trucks I have ever owned.

The 4 cylinder should only be in the lower based standard tacoma with just two seats.

This 4-cylinder Tacoma is big Faillure in all shape and form.

I’ll hold on 1 more year and see what develops on the Tacoma as far as issues go.

but the Tacoma beats the ford in every aspect, I’m very happy with the truck , and would buy another toyota

Reliable great looking holds it value peace of mind  I had a 2000 Tacoma  prerunner  my favorite  vehicle  and the 2018 is just as good  or better

My previous Tacoma still runs like a champ, so I was more than happy to get another one.

The four cylinder, being older tech, is reliable, has often achieved close to 30 mpg on the highway ( and I live in the Sierras),

but the engine is just wrong for this truck.

It has no idea what to do and simply revs the engine without affecting speed at all.

I also tow a tent trailer and the truck does fine and the engine and transmission have performed great.

The technology inside is amazing and the engine runs great!

You would think that the smaller, more efficient engine would get better gas mileage.

Planning on keeping this truck till the engine blows

The 2018 Tacoma is a fun truck the vehicle runs well and has plenty of power with the 3.5L engine.

This truck has the best safety technology and comfort.

I LOVE MY TOYOTAS, WILL NOT BUY AMERICAN AGAIN, VERY RELIABLE, COMFORTABLE TOO.

But if you don’t care about driving dynamics on road, and don’t need too many creature comforts, it’s a solid truck and a fantastic off roader.

This Tacoma is very reliable and surprisingly comfortable.

I would not own any other new truck or car for appearance and comfort.

The car Toyota is a very comfortable and well sized car for a regular size family.

The truck is very comfortable, reliable and great on gas.

Seats could be more comfortable as well, back seat is for short people short distance as well.

Comfort is great and durability is unbeatable.

feature

Has lots of nice features, latest electronics.

The Toyota is head and shoulders above the Ford in quality,reliability,appearance, options,gas mileage and enjoyment.

At 5’10 it has plenty of room, I like the long bed, and 4x4 gives me options to get off the pavement.

From all the great safety features to the power moon roof & sliding rear window, heated seats, hard tonneau cover w/locking tailgate & much more, I love this truck & would highly recommend it.

Safety features cause more problems than help.

Love some of the new standard features such as the navigation system, new safety features that didn't exist in 2005.

I have no real concerns as my 18' is a loaded Toy, TRD off Road, automatic, Inferno, long bed, with tech package,&#38;  JBL pkg.

There were so many upgrades on the interior and other upgrades and features in my new 2018 Tacoma over my 2014 Tacoma, making it the best new Tacoma ever!

I have to tell you, I love the look of the truck, the features really make it enjoyable.

PLENTY OF SAFETY FEATURES AND MORE COMFORT.

This truck rides better than my 2018 F150 2wd eco boost.

The ride is very smooth, although I do agree that the seats do become very hard on longer drives & the Entune radio tethering  errors can be frustrating,

It’s got a high ride height, making it good for off roading.

Love the truck just not enough room I purchased it new the truck rides great no issues I drive it every day
It’s has navigation Bluetooth collision sensors ect

It rides smoothly and has excellent power and acceleration.

The ride is nice and it handles nice on the road.

Either way, the ride is very smooth for me.

Very smooth ride and stylish interior (I have the red and black trim) the access cab with V6 engine from my experience speeds ups incredibly fast especially compared to the full cab.

This is a fun little truck to drive and ride.

It looks great, rides good and will hopefully have the dependability it's reputation has owned up to.

2021 Toyota Tacoma

Sound system is subpar, can’t keep up with road noise.

Cheapest interior ever, weak, noisey, horrible ride.

Rear end noise and paint issue from factory.

but there were shifting issues with the Transmission and was a little noisy.

leg-room

The truck is not great for a  family no room in the back seat for leg room

The only "near complaint" I have is the rear seat could use one more inch of legroom.

This car meets all of my needs it has plenty of legroom at that test driveway I liked it and it saves me money and gas it’s only a four-cylinder and it has a lot of power

The bones are good, it will last a long time and you can not beat the resale value or after market support for Tacoma in the midsize segment.

LOVE IT GREAT TRUCK FOR THE HIGHWAY 
TOOK MY FIRST DEER WITH THE NEW TACOMA 
BLACK ON BLACK

I believe the Tacoma was the best value compared to similar off road models by other manufacturers.

I bought a brand new 2021 Tacoma SR5 thinking it would be just like me 06 Tacoma sport (which I loved) .

Have had Tacoma's as primary vehicles for 20+ years.

The FJ40 is now too old to be "the vehicle to take across the USA after a nuclear war" and it has been replaced by the Tacoma.

I have a 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRDpro 4x4 and the truck looks nice so I decided to buy it to enjoy some weekend off-roading which is something I have always enjoyed to do, I purchased the truck because Toyotas are known to be reliable tough trucks,

From the outside, my Tacoma looks perfect.

The engine has plenty of power if anything you want to do, I drove it on the freeway for over an hour 85 miles an hour to keep up with traffic and had no problems.

Smooth ride, plenty of engine power, comfortable front seats (power seats and I’m 6’1” 200lbs), adequate rear seat, very good looks.

The vehicle has a hard tonneau cover, leather seats with the Trd off-road performance package, and a V6 engine.

I recommend the 6 cylinder over the 4, and the crew cab over the access cab.

Custom made Elka suspension gave the truck a balanced and smooth highway ride with better on center feel and comfort both on highway and off and is now a pleasure to drive on long road trips.

If you want a quite, floating, bouncy ride, get a Big SUV for 85k.

I love the auto-dimming headlights, blind spot monitor, pre-collision safety, cross traffic alert, LED lighting including bed lights at the tailgate,  premium audio, parking sonar and the tough seat materials which aren't phased by my giant K-9 (yes, he rides up front with a seatbelt harness attachment).

Pros - good looks, smooth powertrain and ride, great tech for safety, totally at home off road, dynamic cruise works flawlessly, comfortable seats, "audio plus" option sound is very good, interior feels modern, and wife says "it's easy to drive."

That said, my 2021 is ultra smooth as it shifts, the ride is quieter and it actually pulls my boat reasonably well.

The audio is excellent and overall a nice ride.

It's a comfortable ride and has plenty of room.

The let downs are in the ride and comfort areas.

With the 2020 models and beyond, the power seat is very comfortable for me and my wife (6’1” and 5’4”, average weight).

The 2021 Tacoma is my favorite truck to date - it is not the most powerful or comfortable, and the HEMI was the best MPG return given the performance -

Meets all my needs, comfortable, the audio, wireless charging and Car play are my favorite.

The Toyota Tacoma was a comfortable and this truck was just what we are looking for.

Absolutely love this truck comfortable and fun to own!

It's comfortable enough to take on long trips, the interiors is nice enough that you're not afraid to let folks look inside your truck and it gets you through the woods (off-road) to where you need to be.

In addition to being fun to drive, the car has good legroom in the back and is easy to control.

Very solid enjoyable road trip over 7000 miles on some pretty bad roads.

Lots of fun to drive and tons of customization features.

Tacoma Off Road 4×4 is great all around fun vehicle.

The truck is a pleasure to drive, plenty of power, smooth ride and very quiet.

It’s fun going through everything to see what it can really do.

2019 Toyota Tacoma

Overall I’m a bit disappointed with the performance from the engine, constant up shifting and down shifting from the transmission, and the road noise inside the cabin of the truck.

Well let's see,first the fam transmission shifts all the time ,cant touch the pedal without it shifting,,an they changed the front sensor in the grill, an did the fuel pump an my fuel mileage went from 17-18 mph,to 11-13mpg
.an they said it was my fault,,so the xxxx with this truck never again.

It leaves a lot to be desired in the way of power, the transmission shifts whenever it feels like it, the interior can be squeaky at times and the interior is all hard plastic.

told normal by dealership many times   , only way to make better is to run with etc (electronic transmission control )button  on ,yes we drove the ford & Chevy didn't shift as bad as this.

It skips, transmission doesn't shift like it's supposed to, the motor sounds like it's about to fall apart.

Transmission has a strange shift feeling.

Only complaint is that it does have trouble pulling a trailer at speed, it's like the transmission doesn't quite know which gear to use.

The car has for 6 cylinder engine very week wen I use the manual transmission feels so weird wen the transmission changes the front disc are very bad quality my car whit 8000 milles the front disc brake it’s shaking  terrible shake am losing control in front wen I try to stop de car the truck it’s no secure to drive the front disc brake (very bad quality).

The truck shifts into fifth gear before I get to 40 MPH which is really frustrating.

A problem you've never seen before and need a week to diagnose or an intentional transmission design.

has vibration issues and no get up and go for a v6 unlike my last 2 v6 tacomas.

My new truck has odd squeaks and sounds a new truck shouldn’t have, not ones that cost this much anyhow!

Disappointed, truck has more rattles than my 03 Sierra had with 270,000 miles!

They need to check poor performance shakes when accelerating.
