I have a 2005 Tacoma bought in Feb 2005. The center console storage compartment latch broke at 68,000 miles. No problem there if Toyota would sell me a new latch. Looks to be about a $5 - $10 part and I removed it in about three minutes. Toyota does not sell just the latch - they want you to buy a new center console piece for $295 not including including dealer installation. What a waste. The latch was under-designed. Does anyone know if someone who has had the same experience with the Tacoma? Shame on Toyota!

Take it back to the dealership.
can't charge you more than $50 to fix it.

not true...i already tried, he said he would have to sell me the whole center piece and all it is, is a small push button that opens it up.
