Buying a used 2019 Toyota Tacoma? Check these 4 recalls first
Same three high-severity recalls as the 2018 truck — a brake part that may weaken stopping power and two campaigns for fuel pumps that can fail and stall the engine — plus a low-severity load capacity label that may become unreadable. Owner complaints to NHTSA number 218, unverified, and cluster tightly: service brakes 56, fuel/propulsion 55, power train 40, engine 28. Reported outcomes include 11 crashes, 6 injuries and 1 fire. None of the recalls carries a stop-driving or park-outside warning.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm the brake recall repair on this VIN and road-test braking from both low and highway speeds.
- Ask about stalling, hesitation or hard starting, and whether the fuel pump recall was performed.
- Check the door-jamb load capacity label is present and readable, and review power train service history.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
