    Noticed some fluid drops on my driveway this morning located just in front of the front passenger side tire. The spot on the driveway is about the size of a credit card.
    Was able to trace where the liquid was coming from and the culprit is the hose coming out from the power steering reservoir. (#7 in the picture)

    The clamp is probably just a bit loose, worse case I'll need to replace the hose.
    I don't really have a question in particular, this thread is more of a rant. Or I could make it my 2021 issues log.

    This is my first Toyota truck. Hoping this isn't foreshadowing of future problems...my truck was built Aug. 20, 2021...and that was a Friday...

    I had this exact issue as well in my 21. They replaced the clamp and I was on my way

    Thanks for the input brother. That's easy fix. Now I'm more worried about the stain on my driveway :( haha

    Baking soda, vinegar and a push broom then spray down with the hose. Gets my concrete looking new for $3.

    Haha thanks for this, I will do this.

    And a little update, I'm at the dealership and they replaced the clamp and hose, no charge.

    I don't think you need a 2021 issues log. I'm sure that's just sarcasm/frustration being a brand new truck and all. It's a Toyota. Not a GM :rofl::thumbsup:
