Your Dealer Says They Can't Replicate It? Here's Why

Are there already transmission problems with the 2025 Toyota Tacoma?

I came across an article about a Tacoma owner in Kentucky reporting serious transmission jerking between 1st and 3rd gear, and what’s worse… the dealer says they can’t replicate the issue and won’t fix it.

This is happening at around 10,000 miles — and some reports say it started as early as 3,000 miles.

In this video, I break down:

What the owner is experiencing:
Why the dealer might be refusing the repair
Possible causes with the new 8-speed transmission
What Tacoma owners should watch out for

There are also reports that Toyota has already acknowledged similar transmission issues in earlier 4th gen models, making this even more concerning.

If you own a 2024 or 2025 Tacoma — or you’re thinking about buying one — you NEED to know this.
