Recall for rear leaf spring - the federal safety agency recall 14v‑604. "rear suspension system contains leaf springs that are constructed of either three or four leaves. There is a possibility that a leaf could fracture due to stress and corrosion. If this occurs and the vehicle continues to be operated, the broken leaf could move out of position and contact surrounding components, including the fuel tank. If the broken leaf contacts the fuel tank repeatedly, it could puncture the tank and cause a fuel leak. In the presence of an ignition source, this could result in a fire." we have been trying to get this resolved on our vehicle for the past 4 years. Toyota has been contacted by us numerous times and they continue to say they will contact the toyota headquarters to get this resolved. Our vehicle was shipped to gambia, west africa in 2014, before receiving this recall, for our personal use there. The toyota dealership in the gambia, cfao, told us that if toyota would ship the part to them, they would install it in our vehicle. Toyota has been notified several times over the past 4 years and they continue to say they will forward the request to their headquarters (in japan?), but we have never received any response to these requests and, therefore, the status of our vehicle is still recall incomplete. According to the recall letters received, it says that any authorized toyota dealer will inspect, and if necessary, replace the leaf springs at no charge to us. We want this part to be shipped to the toyota dealer in the gambia, west africa: cfao toyota, mamadi maniyang hwy, kanifing, gambia. Their phone number is: 220‑439‑6906 and fax number is: 220‑439‑6687.

Took truck to toyota dealership requesting rear leaf spring on passenger side to be replaced after I realized it squeaks all the time and received recall notice about spring. Was told by toyota dealership that they couldn't do the repairs b/c it has a lift kit on the truck and in order for them to preform the job they would have to take my lift kit off at my expense. Leaf spring is still squeaking. I even asked if toyota would pay for the leaf spring and let me have someone else install and was told no. Now I have a squeaky leaf spring that could fail at any time and it's my responsibility to pay to get it fixed even though there has been a recall on the product.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 toyota tacoma. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v604000 (suspension); however, the dealer refused to do the repair due to the vehicle having a lift kit. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The manufacturer also informed the contact that the lift kit would need to be removed prior to the recall being remedied. The contact refused because he would be charged for the lift kit to be re-inistalled, even after the manufacturer was notified that the vehicle was purchased new with the lift kit.

I was notified of a recall on my tacoma leaf springs about a year ago. Then 3 months later or so I was notified that "the fix" was ready and that I should call my dealer to set up an appointment. I did so in about april of 2016. I have heard nothing since, even though I've contacted them asking when this repair could be done. They "had no information."
The dealer has not remedied this recall. I called to make an appointment over 23 weeks ago. I was told the parts would be there in 7 to 10 days. I called and was told by the dealer they are waiting for the parts from the vendor.
Regarding recall # 14v‑604. Took vehicle in for inspection on nov 8, 2016 at big island toyota, located in kailua kona, hi. Dealership said truck failed inspection. Said replacement parts would arrive in six to eight months. Seems unreasonable amount of time to repair a defective vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 toyota tacoma. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v604000 (suspension). The vehicle was inspected several times and the dealer stated that the part was not available for an extended period of time. In addition, the dealer kept stating that the part did not need to be replaced. Upon starting the vehicle, there was an abnormal noise and the suspension was unstable for months. The contact was unable to determine when the vehicle would be repaired. The VIN was also included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 11v148000 (tires). The manufacturer was to check with the dealer to determine when they would be able to provide a repair solution for the leaf spring assembly and also when the second recall may be performed. The failure mileage was not available. Parts distribution disconnect.

I was notified in early 2015 (not sure of the actual date) of a pending recall the federal safety agency# 14v604 or toyota # e02 regarding a problem with rear suspension leaf spring assemblies. I received a second letter(in 2015) about the same issue noting that a solution will be in place in early 2016. I have not heard from toyota regarding this issue in 2016 yet the issue recall is still active on the federal safety agency data base. At this time, I have not had an incident with my vehicle but am disappointed that toyota has been so deliberate in fixing the problem. That is my complaint.

I received a recall for leaf springs (urgent safety recall)14v‑604. Called cox toyota in burlington nc and they said they would call back when the parts came in.
