bigdave,
I do understand your frustration. I was upset when my transmission went out too. But try to be cool and work with your dealer. hopefully, they are trying to help you.
To answer your question ----> First, warning lights came on, then shifting and slipping problems with some rumbling too. ....... This all happened at once (within 20 miles) and at about 500 total miles.
I know that you are upset ... but try to be cool and work with the dealer. ... I will have to say this ... Atlanta Toyota (all the folks that I worked with there ... were super). I got to know the tech who worked on it and he drove it home (after he installed the new tranny) to make sure it was ok.
I was very upset when the trans failed ... but what can I do ????
Just take it back and have it replaced.
And I did tell the dealer .. "No Door Dings" please ... those things make me crazy ... lol ...
Now .. once you get the Tundra back and the transmission is ok. We all need to band together and request a 100K warranty from TMCA ... like the warranty that was given to the owners with the engine replacements.
Good luck and try to stay focused and cool,
SOS
