There is a new 2024 Tacoma sitting in the back lot at your dealership missing the shutter system. Your calling probably made the dealer and Toyota take one off a new model in stock, and they wait until the new one comes in and reinstall and goes on lot to sell a month later 😎

[@TheUnrestricted]

🤣🤣 possibly

[@Richard-xv7yf]

Sounds about right

[@cecil5152]

It’s what I’d do if i worked at the dealership.

[@lorenzoronpedrique2952]

100%

[@bobo11112222]

Shutter is probably part of Cold Weather Upgrade package. It's extra. So I thought. No. All trim level have it.

[@Ryan-cf6lc]

Man, how is that going hold up in winter ice conditions 😬

[@eatcommies1375]

The salesman told him it will handle anything 🤣

[@jeremy8293]

@@eatcommies1375😂😂😂😂

[@TRDOffRoad2020]

They will be shut and frozen in the winter to keep the turbo warm. Then, it is not open to cool due to all the ice and snow that has accumulated behind the grill. In my opinion only 😎

[@TheUnrestricted]

Ooo man we’ll see

[@andrewinaustintx]

The design of the shutters should be by default to be in the open position.

[@TheUnrestricted]

True that

[@DunnMotors]

Thanks for the video and update. Sorry about your truck man and it doesn't help when people are being negative in the comments as well. Glad it worked out so far.

[@TheUnrestricted]

All good thanks brotha

[@DunnMotors]

@TheUnrestricted Great to hear brother, Stay blessed!

[@marklihsu]

Noticing a pattern here you need to have a youtube channel to get service from toyota. Good luck to others who don't when your tacoma breaks.

[@is6566]

GM is more equal in their approach. Andrey’s Colorado Trail Boss at TFL doesn’t have a working backup camera for SEVEN MONTHS now because the dealership is waiting for parts. 😃

[@theirthereandtheyre2947]

The minuscule mpg gains or shortened time to warm up are not worth the added complexity of these shutters.

[@bobcook8576]

I'm glad everything worked out for you. Nothing worse than buying a new truck that you can't drive.

[@TheUnrestricted]

True

[@StevePesh91]

man i really feel for ya i was debating last year whether to get the 24 trd pro or 23 trd pro and im super happy i made the decision on the 23

[@1jfmurray]

Probably not a good Idea to be an early adopter if you only have one vehicle for work.

[@TheUnrestricted]

Yeah true

[@Elvisnotpresley97]

No way you got it from Longo Toyota in El Monte they’re the #1 dealer in the country I believe I pass by it a lot on my way home from my delivery close by, they had A LOT of 23’s

[@jmpattillo]

If this ends up being the only problem recall problem with the new Tacoma then that will be a home run.

[@NGL12347]

Copium

[@littlestinker9716]

Let's not ignore the front diff A.D.D. that likes to fail as soon as you give it power in 4LO on slippery surfaces.

[@RP-oy5rt]

⁠@@littlestinker9716you mean the one that failed? One.

[@jmpattillo]

@@littlestinker9716 remains to be seen if that was a one-off occurrence. There have been several reports of this grill shutter issue.

[@TheUnrestricted]

Yeah true

[@tacomafan5186]

Way too much tech on these new vehicles. I’ll stick with my 3rd gen.

[@sammyjammy6647]

I’m tired of this comment

[@TheUnrestricted]

Yeah I hear ya

[@wanderingdaze7018]

Don’t get why people still get brainwashed to buy new cars when they have a perfectly fine one

[@shawnn6926]

It's called "design obsolescence." Same reason why Louis Vuitton changes their design every year.

[@pwrguy2589]

Question: Unless you just drove this vehicle and it's still hot, why are those shutters open now? Shouldn't they be closed now? Are you sure the shutters aren't fixed in the open position until the part comes in then you'll get called in for something else and they will then switch out the defective part? Just curious!

[@Tim-Brink]

How did you get ahold of corporate? I would like to talk to them about the bed issues on the 3rd gen.

[@Adriangee818]

Big problem for anyone hauling heavy loads with these trucks, tfls truck was quick to overheat on a steep hill

[@elpollochavez]

This helped

[@Johnny_Bee]

Guess all the new owners need to check that connection on their trucks

[@TheUnrestricted]

True

[@littlestinker9716]

The dealer could have removed the bad shutter assembly or zip tied it open while they waited for a new one. You could have kept driving the truck.

[@TheUnrestricted]

Yeah for real

[@hphillips7425]

Agreed 100% Might be a good idea for the owners to know how to do that themselves or suggest the dealership does it

[@dino5254]

Do I have that shutter? My grill is different on an Off-Road.

[@Jaredius]

You may soon find out.

[@appleztooranges]

Should have kept the 3rd gen Tacoma

[@shawnn6926]

I'm keeping my '17 TRD Sport till I retire.

[@carlmcdonald5864]

Tell them they need to take care of your payment until you get your truck back. This is ridiculous.

[@TheUnrestricted]

Yeah for real

[@pamlucchino4878]

Sorry you are dealing with this. This is your sign that you should not have gotten rid of the awesome 3rd Gen. Turbos are always a problem.

[@lyung13]

Man, how hard to manually open that little plastic shutter....

[@TheUnrestricted]

It’s metal but yeah I thought the same thing

[@dailydriver5942]

New model year. There will probably be several issues. Strap in brotha!!

[@earlkoropatnick1928]

I live in Canada where we have lots of ice and snow. I can't see this thing operating successfully under those conditions.

[@lenpascual9870]

3rd gen v6 is the last real tacoma..

[@shawnn6926]

I have a '17 TRD Sport V6. I'm getting the same MPG as their estimated MPG on their new I4 Turbo.

[@tgamble1000]

Think I'll stick with the Nissan Frontier...3.8L V6 is bullet proof...

[@sheikhprince2254]

😂

[@tgamble1000]

@@sheikhprince2254 …don’t know why you think that’s funny…I’ve had two Nissan Frontier’s with the 3.8L engine and one with the 4.0L engine, never had an issue…changed the oil/filter every 5,000 miles…

[@guitarhero9592]

Glad you got your truck back. Just sucks what you had to go through to get it back calling corporate etc.

[@dubyusmc]

Hey man, does your truck Make a noise while changing gears from park like a vacuuming sound?

[@homebuiltcamperdave5226]

I’m not so sure I would not disable the shutters. Imagine if they get stuck shut in the middle of an off road drive with lots of wet mud.

[@dialmeida87]

I knew that 4 banger turbo would be an issue but all because of shutters not opening?? What’s gonna happen when you go off-roading and get mud caked on em or cross a river n the switch goes underwater?

[@c7406-q8c]

Is this make sense to you? Turbo engine is no good for idling long period of time. You get pop up warning on the Taco cluster. But there is power inverter option allows you to use AC power during camping or using power tools. To use that you need to leave the engine on to use max wattage and you get engine damage warning….😂

[@bobm21]

And on top of that, you paid over MSRP?

[@TheUnrestricted]

No I paid under

[@nascarniko2244]

Mine just came on today. Not taking it in till next service I just cleared the code with battery reset

[@hankhoffman3343]

I am thinking of buying one today (last day of the month). Should I?? HELP!!

[@scortez24]

Another recall oh man

[@jameszooski9053]

Tell me that shutter is going to work with 3-4 feet of snow and a little wind in New Hampshire, 231 miles per hour on the cog R.R. Eighty-nine years ago today, Mount Washington Observatory, in its second year of existence, recorded a world-record wind speed of 231 miles per hour - a record that would stand for over 60 years.

[@frankthompson9119]

I am suspect of any new Toyota. My 2022 Camry had a mapp sensor failure at highway speeds. Downshifted so violently it nearly left the highway. Faulkner Toyota said it was caused by a rodent chew. No evidence at all of wires chewed on. The only rodent under the hood of my Camry was the dealers technician. Excellent way for Toyota to deny component failures with their products. Cost me $300 to get my car back.

[@donfinkey692]

I don’t understand the concept of the shutters. Is it because it’s now turbo charged? 😮

[@tdub25]

Why leave the vehicle to sit at dealer for a simple grill shutter?!?!?

[@Doc1855]

Glad your LEMON 🍋 is being repaired. When ANY Redesigned vehicle is new, they’re going to be a POS. That’s why I chose my 23 Tacoma over the 24 Tacoma. The 24 Tacoma owners are the “Test” owners. Dump the truck and buy a 23. Historically the first 2 years of a totally redesigned vehicle from Toyota is a POS

[@spacecoastz4026]

Looks like there is a large dent in the door just below the mirror.

[@dieprideman]

30 days out of service on a new car within 24 months after purchase puts it in lemon law territory and corporate probably wanted to resolve it before you figure out your rights.

[@jackofblades6736]

Let USA just get the Hilux Champ in Diesel and I’ll be happy with that.

[@SCSuperheavy114]

Why not make the fake air scoop that’s on the sport an actual air scoop and put it on all models?

[@TP-lt4vl]

Are you kidding me, a diaster waiting to happen with this new turbo engine, soooo sad

[@Tobstertacoma]

Let me PLEASE take the time to THANK YOU for helping my 2023 TRD Sport go up in value! Please enjoy all the "NEW" problems that you will encounter with your new truck, lol.

[@Jamesmoon-i3s]

If I were you,I'd take those shutters completely off that truck,and pray every day to get maybe 100K out of a 4cly turbo in a truck. Good luck buddy, your going to need it

[@donhoe100]

Keep the oil clean and don't drive like an idiot, it could outlast a V6? People that bought the 2023 or earlier are hoping it won't last though?

[@whois3581]

If I were him I'd trade it in for a Frontier.

[@garytheguru]

Chevy has the same problem with the Colorado I've seen guys remove the Shutter flaps but leave the housing and motor intact.

[@apexi350z]

Simple part that caused the shutter to malfunction, not so clever…

[@glennfields8121]

This is the very reason why they say to NEVER buy a first year out of either a new or renew vehicle. By the way, you appear to be driving in the United Kingdom as your video suggest that you are sitting on the right side of the vehicle.

[@TheUnrestricted]

I totally agree!

[@janpur1417]

THESE CARS (NOT A PICKUP TRUCK. AS IT GOT COIL SPRINGS IN THE REAR) ARE LIKE SIMPLE TOYS.. SO MANY WIRES AND JUST A DROP OF WATER CAN SCREW MANY THINGS! SAW TRDJON SHOWS HIS 2024 GIVING 21 MPG ON HIGHWAY, MY V6 3RD GEN GIVES 22-24 MPG ON HIGHWAY.

[@RP-oy5rt]

So the tundra, ram, f150 are not trucks?

[@is6566]

The F150 has leaf springs and consequently it’s a truck for sure.

[@Adriangee818]

Get 24-26 on my v6 23 frontier

[@elmerramirez1215]

Trade your truck in and get the 2021 model

[@is6566]

That looks like a not complex at all engineering to control the temperature of the turbos. /END of sarcasm I am not sure this will hold up for 200,000+ miles.

[@mad-meh2719]

It's there for fuel economy standards and reduce vehicle emissions.

[@MidNiteR32]

Toyota = 🤡

[@manuelrivas6120]

You got a lemon

[@Relevantminded]

Is that a big dent on the driver's door towards the front fender or the body lines?

[@braalo07]

The amount of Tacoma I content I have consumed in recent days is unprecedented for a truck not available in our market 🥲
