description: WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT FOR A SHORT TIME, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK LUNGED FORWARD HITTING THE CAR THAT WAS IN FRONT. TOOK THE TRUCK TO OUR LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION. REPORT CAME BACK THAT EVERYTHING WAS IN PROPER WORKING ORDER AND WITHIN SPEC. DEALERSHIP TOLD US THAT SINCE IT WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT THAT THEY COULD NOT TOUCH IT ANY LONGER WITHOUT PROPER AUTHORIZATION. DIRECTED US TO TOYOTA CUSTOMER RELATIONS. WE OPENED UP A CASE FILE AND NOW JUST WAITING TO HEAR FROM A CASE MANAGER. I ASKED OUR LOCAL TOYOTA SERVICE MGR IF HE HAS HAD OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. HIS REPLY WAS "NEVER, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING". I FIND THAT VERY HARD TO BELIEVE. I SENT HIM A JUST A FEW OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS THAT I HAVE FOUND ONLINE IN A REAL QUICK SEARCH. IT LOOKS LIKE IT HAPPENS TO ALOT OF TOYOTA TACOMA OWNERS. VERY UNSAFE! *TR
