Took my 2016 Tacoma for engine noise, and give you...

Took my 2016 Tacoma for engine noise, and give you some past history Its been in and out of different dealerships so many times and not just for engine noise. Radio was replaced, bad smell from exhaust, wiper motor noise, Drive door issues, rear view mirror electrical, transmission issue, drive axle recall and engine noise.
My truck has been in several dealerships because no one was able to hear the noise. When I took it to Universal Toyota I just dropped it off for about 4 days. They tell me its ready to go. Pick up the truck and no more then a mile down the road Engine noise is still there. I look at the invoice to see what was done and notice that they did not take it down the road for a test drive. I know this because there weren't any other mile on the truck besides the ones I just put on the truck. So I went back to the dealership and had the services writer ride with me and he could hear the noise. My thoughts were thank god finally someone heard the noise. Services writer said " Sounds like your engine is coming apart" again I say Thank God now we can get this thing fixed.
I get a call the next day and was told that they cannot figure out whats making that noise, They tell me that they will get another truck same year and model and test drive it and see if it makes the same noise(maybe this is a normal sound)
I get a call the next day Good News we have found the problem! Its your high pressure fuel pump but he is the bad news. We do not have a pump in stock but we can order one and it will be here Saturday and we will install it Monday. Now this is after 3 pm. I then tell the services writer I need to get a rental because I cannot be without a truck that long. Pause..............Well you will need to get here before 5 I say NO PROBLEM i will be there.
I get someone from work to run me down to the dealership and when I see the Services writer he tells me Good News we found a fuel pump and there installing it right now. Another twenty minutes or so and they will be finished. (now I`m f@#$ing pissed off) why didn't he just call me OR was it the fact they didn't want to have to pay for a rental car for 4 days. (pull a pump out of thin air........ BS) I had to turn back around and get both of us back to work.
I get a call about an hour later from the dealership that the truck is ready. My response was pick it up tomorrow.........
I arrive at the dealership to get my truck and porter brings it up for me and I get in the truck and I try very not to be FREAKING UPSET... YOU HAD THE TRUCK FOR ALMOST TWO WEEK why why didn't you do the maintenance check The light is on. I look at the mileage and it didnt look like they took it out for a test drive. Oh but I did and guess what THE NOISE IS STILL THERE. I REALLY WISH I DID NOT BUY THAT TRUCK. its going back i dont want it back with all that engine noise. Its a bad engine plan and simple....................I hate my truck.
