What owners wrote
Fuel gauge on the dashboard its not reading correctly the tank amount of fuel. When its full of gasoline the gauge on the dashboard gave me wrong readings marking as empty or 1/4 of the fuel tank.
Toyota dealer knowingly sold me a 2018 40k miles tacoma with an open recall regarding failing low pressure fuel pump that can stall at high speed. This was not disclosed at time of purchase. We live a great distance from dealer on a remote island making returning to dealer a considerable hardship. Dealer keeps saying 'part is coming in a couple days' would like to clear this up asap .
