Hark! Someone listens. Toyota admitted this flaw in this era of Tacomas.
 
You can get the specifics here, but the gist is that the frames will be extended to 150K or so, and replaced or reparied at toyota expense.

similar statements have been cross-posted by others. I luckily have not had this problem yet.

#510 of 547 04 Tacoma 4 cyl O2 sensor by mikefm58

Mar 14, 2008 (6:47 am)

Check engine light came on after picking up the vehicle from the dealer, in for service for brakes and new spark plugs, diagnosed as a bad O2 sensor, $359 please. The vehicle only has 39K miles and is about 8 months out of warranty. I'm trying to get some out of warranty assistance through Toyota but I'm not holding my breath. O2 sensors should not go like this one did.

Should be covered under warranty for 50k miles as part of the emissions equipment.

Nope, I tried that, it's on the 3yr/36K warranty. My truck is just under 4 yrs old and 39K miles.

#515 of 547 cylinder misfire/fuel trim bank 1 by battlecat07

May 21, 2008 (1:37 pm)

I have a 2001 Tacoma S-runner. Check engine light with the following diagnostic results: cylinder misfire detected - Random cylinders; fuel trim bank one condition. I have replaced the spark plugs, fuel filter, and O2 sensor prior to the catalytic converter. None of the hoses appear to have leaks or holes. The truck runs normal for the most part. When I shift into any gear other than 1st and then floor the gas pedal, there is a complete loss of power and the truck won't go above 2000 rpm. If I let off the gas and then slowly come back on it everything is fine and it will run at above 2000 rpm. My next hunch is to replace the O2 sensor after the catalytic converter. After that I have no guesses. Any suggestions out there? Thanks.

In the front or back?
 
Could be a LOT of things.... check for broken front coils.... check rear suspension and frame rails for damage....
