If there's one thing I love, it's keeping busy. Yesterday I had an off day from work and decided to go help my mom do some gardening work. She wanted to put some new soil on her garden, and who better to call on to come help her carry the bags of soil? Yeah, you guessed that right haha. It was fun and quite eventful too. We hauled over 50 bags of soil amounting to over 600 lbs using my truck. I know the Tacoma is a pretty powerful truck for jobs like this, but yesterday, I felt impressed, like it was my first time driving it. Honestly, it's been great owning this awesome truck. I've had a few trucks in the past, but so far, this has seemed to be the standout for me.

Has anyone had a “system malfunction” “break malfunction” message AND orange coolant light come ON and suddenly OFF on their truck dash?

This was the message I got this morning and I immediately reached out to the dealership, who said it won’t be covered since I’m over my warranty.

Dealership said to bring it in for diagnostics and pay out of pocket. I'll wait to see how it all plays out while also looking out for potential solutions too.
