The 2014 Toyota Tacoma was sold with a choice of two engines — the 2.7L four (2TR-FE) or the 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) — across ten Base and PreRunner configurations spanning 2D pickup, 4D pickup and extra-cab bodies, with automatic and standard transmissions offered on both. Torque values, clearances and service figures diverge between the four-cylinder and V6 trucks, so the engine under the hood decides which numbers apply to the job in front of you.

Known issues on the 2014 Tacoma. Two recalls sit on the federal record for this model year. The first, campaign 13V557000, is an engine recall covering certain 2013-2014 Tacoma vehicles manufactured July 1, 2013, through October 11, 2013: if the valve springs break, the engine could fail and stall while the vehicle is being driven. The second, campaign 17V425000, concerns the hood hinge and attachments on certain 2011-2016 Toyota Tacoma and 4Runner vehicles fitted with accessory hood scoops installed by Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) or SET dealers; if the hood scoop detaches, it may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 133 complaints for the model year, and 216 technical service bulletins have been issued.
