ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL
I BOUGHT MY 2005 TACOMA ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM THREE TIMES NOW. THE LAST TIME BEING TONIGHT AFTER PICKING UP MY DAUGHTER AT WORK. THE TRUCK WAS ACCELERATING AND I WAS LITERALLY STANDING ON THE BRAKE AND THE ENGINE WAS RACING AND WOULD NOT STOP. I THROUGH IT INTO NEUTRAL AND IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO EXPLODE! I HAVE NO RUGS IN MY VEHICLE, IT DID NOT COME WITH ANY, AND I WAS GOING TO GET THE ALL WEATHER MATS, BUT HAVE NOT BOUGHT THEM YET. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ENGAGED. I DO CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE A FAIRLY EXPERIENCED DRIVER, I USE TO RACE A 70 CHEVELLE IN THE 1/4 MILE (THIS WAS MANY YEARS AGO.), IF I DID NOT HAVE SUCH EXPERIENCE I AM SURE I WOULD HAVE RAN THE CAR UP A TREE OR SOMETHING. I AM SCARED, I HAVE BEAT CANCER TWICE AND I'LL BE ї!@#$% IF I AM GOING TO LET A FAULTY TACOMA TAKE ME OUT! *TR

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
1 PARKED WITH TRUCK IN 1ST GEAR 2 TRUCK CAME OUT OF GEAR 2 TIMES. I STOPED THE TRUCK 1 TIME, A TREE STOPPED IT THE 2ND TIME. 1 YEAR LATER, THE TRUCK POPS INTO NUTURAL WHILE DRIVING. I PUT IT BACK IN GEAR, I SOMETIMES HOLD THE SHIFTER TO KEEP IT IN GEAR. 3 I HAVE NOT TRYED TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION, BUT I ALWAYS SET THE PARKING BREAK.
