Blown head gasket on 3.0 v-6

Toyota 4runner 1995 blown head gaskets

May 2015 on way to drs and then oil change at pep boys. Head gasket on car blew for 2nd time (6000 and 2 years, since first time). Driving on freeway proceeded to overpass and in the middle of this extremely high, curved overpass, bridging the 23 to the 101, driving at highway speed, the car "farted", cloud out back side and speed just dropped. Coasted down other side and car "limped along slowly" from there. Most terrifying experience. Prayed no one would hit me and send me flying off the connector to freeway below. I had no problem with car prior, running beautiful. Took the grades, highway, passing street driving. No problem. Back to issue: luckily, no cars immed. Behind me and those coming were far enough to and could use l lane. Was able to get off freeway. Car,died at every light, but made it slowly, to pep boys. They said head gasket blew. Please note this was a relatively newly repaired head gasket. Repaired 2/16/2013 done @ 160,227. Was gifted car in nov 2013 by family member with meticulous records and spot on reg maintenance of this vehicle. Here i am at the 166,265 and for some reason again the head gasket is incapable of function with the specs of the vehicle. Went with a re-manufactured engine, by certified engine repair only facility, but since the big bang. The car has an unidentifiable speed issue. Can hit up to 80- 85 on hwy, (runs almost beautifully, again but passing power, varies, does hill and then, it doesn't. Loosing speed/power foot to the floor. Then running beautifully. Had 39 point inspection aaa. 4/1/16 passed shifting/engine cranking/ handling etc, does not follow any, if then, you will notice, no engine, od, warning lights. Loss of dash function, rpm , speedometer, gage functions...Came here and found out not only one who's engine blew way before its time, again have complete care repair history and maintenance records.

My head gasket is blown. The dummy panel did not show overheating but steam or smoke was visible coming out from under the hood. Coolant was leaking when parked but the radiator is full. Toyota says my vin says it was manufactured in nov 1995 my registration paperwork says it was first registered october 1995. As with many others, toyota says it is not included. How many reports must be made before it is a covered problem? Or is there no change til lawyers get involved? *tr

Engine exhaust smoky. Coolant level drops. Steam and water emitted from exhaust pipe. Cause seems to be due to a failed head gasket(s) or failure of aluminum cylinder heads to mate to cast iron engine block. Other possibility is cracking in water jacket of heads. This is a 3.0 liter v6 engine and has had press releases about gasket failures. This vehicle was purchased new by customer and has never had the engine overheat or has it been run while low on engine lubricating oil.

Blown rod . Bad motor .. The 4 runner had a 4 wheel drive engine in it that came stock in a 2 wheel drive 4 runner? It blew out a rod on me and these sr5 motors are suppose to last a long time? 98,432 is low for me. *tr

The head gasket is going out there is a recall for other mfg dates but mine was 1 month too long and other people complaining on the internet about their 95 4runners with blown head gaskets and toyota telling them to go pound sand.Toyota is even having later model v6s with failing head gaskets the motor its self is the problem the design is not perfect it's cooling problem is the cause of the sledge recalls they have going on. But if they admit that the motor is bad it would cost them a arm and a leg so me and a lot of other people are left holding the crappy cars tail pipe what worries me is it stopping in the middle of the freeway then getting rear ended. *js

Tl* the contact owns a 1995 toyota 4runner. While driving 25 mph, the contact noticed smoke coming from the tail pipe and the vehicle began driving erratically. The engine was turned off but would not restart after four to five attempts. When restarted, there was thick white smoke coming from the tail pipe abnormally. The vehicle was taken to a mechanic and after inspecting the vehicle, the mechanic noticed that the head gasket was fractured. The manufacturer was contacted and offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 179,000.

I bought a regularly maintained, used 1995 4 runner with 119,000 miles. Within a month, it began running poorly and the repairs began. Had to have the truck towed numerous times after it left me stranded with my infant child. I have replaced everything possible but now the mechanic tells me i have a blown head gasket. There was no incident of overheating. I have seen enough complaints about this issue to understand that toyota is aware and refuses to rectify this situation. I was told by toyota customer service that my truck is not on the recall list. Why not? Every other year was recalled for the very same problem. I cannot afford this repair and since this vehicle has 'nickel and dimmed' me to death, it sits in the driveway. I can't fix it, can't sell it, can't trade it in. It was a waste. My husband's car has been a real trooper but it needs repairs. The 4 runner has taken so much, we can't even fix the basics on hubby's car. Just want to know when toyota is going to admit the problem and help us all that are stuck with their mess! *tr
