Paint defect Hi, This 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport 4X4 has a premium Cement Grey color. The clear coat from the paint is gone and it’s causing damage to my paint on the roof and doors of the vehicle.

The jack failed on this vehicle. I tried to jack it up off road as I got stuck on about 10 February 2021. The base got bent up and the next time I tried to use the jack I lightly dropped my vehicle because the jack was wobbly. I think immediately or some time after that I bought a jack from an automotive store and threw the jack that came with this vehicle away. I was definitely in an unideal situation and place to jack up my vehicle but my only other choice was to wait for someone to move it and I had no cell signal and I was in the middle of no where. The skid plate is dented and the vehicle itself has since been to a toyota dealer for scheduled maintenance and all of the tires have been replaced. Nothing was seemed to be damaged. But the jack was at a slight angle and the base was bent. I believe it is possible that this might be an issue for other owners of this jack component in their vehicles.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA OFFERING ME $100 BECAUSE THEY 'ACCIDENTALLY' MISREPRESENTED THE SAFETY RATINGS OF MY 2018 TOYOTA TACOMA. THE LETTER STATES THAT THE RATINGS WHICH WERE 4 AND 5 STARS ON THE WINDOW STICKER FROM YOUR ORGANIZATION HAVE BASICALLY BEEN ALL CHANGED TO NOT RATED. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE ONE OF THE REASONS I CHOSE THE VEHICLE WAS BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY RATING BY YOUR ORGANIZATION FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. NOW THERE ARE NO RATINGS OTHER THAN ROLLOVER WHICH IS RATED AT 4 STARS. I'VE ATTACHED A PICTURE OF THE WINDOW STICKER WITH VIN NUMBER BLOCK AS REQUESTED AS WELL AS THE PORTION OF THE LETTER THEY SENT. I CAN PROVIDE COPIES OF BOTH UPON REQUEST.. I'M SURE YOU ARE WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND A CALL TO TOYOTA WAS UNEVENTFUL AS THEY TRIED TO OFFER ME $100 TO OVERLOOK THIS. I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT RECOURSE I HAVE IN THIS MATTER.
