ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), UNKNOWN OR OTHER
DRIVING TRUCK ON FREEWAY WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON AT 80-85 MPH. ROAD WAS FLAT AND IT WAS A CLEAR SUNNY DAY. NO CARS NEAR THE TRUCK AND THE PRECOLLISION SENSOR WENT OFF CAUSING THE TRUCK TO ALMOST EMERGENCY BRAKE BEFORE I TURNED CRUISE CONTROL OFF. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE TRUCK TO CAUSE THIS. A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE PRECOLISION SENSOR AND LANE DEPARTURE SEMSOR WENT OFF AND TIL ME THE TRUCK NEEDED TO BE TAKEN TO DEALER. THE SENSORS HAVE GONE OFF A FEW TIMES SAYING THEY ARE INOPERABLE.

FRAME RUST ON FRONT OF VEHICLE IN THE "CRUMPLE" ZONE. I WAS TOLD BY TOYOTA THAT IT WAS PART OF LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN D0D FOR 2004-2006 TUNDRAS AND THAT A SEALANT WAS APPLIED IN JUNE 2014 AND NO OTHER ACTION WILL BE TAKEN. THESE VEHICLES CLEARLY HAVE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY ISSUES DUE TO KNOWN FRAME RUSTING RESULTING FROM A MANUFACTURING DEFICIENCY THAT ARE BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THE LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN FOR THE 2004-2006 MODEL YEARS JUST LIKE THE 2000-2003 TUNDRA VEHICLES THAT WERE SUBJECT TO FULL RECALL. THE NHTSA SHOULD TAKE ACTION WITH THE 2004-2006 TOYOTA TUNDRA VEHICLES TO ENSURE TOYOTA ADDRESSES THE SAFETY RELATED STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY CONCERNS WITH THE FRAMES OF THESE VEHICLES AS THEY HAVE FOR THE 2000-2003 AND 2007-2008 MODEL YEARS.

RUSTING OF FRAME IMPACTS STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF VEHICLE. 2004-2006 MODEL YEARS WERE SUBJECT TO A VOLUNTARY LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN ON THE HEELS OF A RECALL TO THE 2000-2003 MODEL YEARS. THE LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN IS INEFFECTIVE AT MITIGATING THE SAFETY CONCERN OVER THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE VEHICLE. 2007-2008 ARE SUBJECT TO RECALL AS WELL. NHTSA SHOULD ADDRESS THIS MATTER TO ENSURE TOYOTA RESOLVES THE SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH A RUSTING FRAME.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MONDAY, JANUARY 15TH I DROVE AT 65 MPH TO WORK AT AND HOME ON THE FREEWAY WITH NO PROBLEMS. TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY THE TRUCK WAS STATIONARY DUE TO COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS IN HOUSTON, TEXAS. THURSDAY MORNING THE 18TH, I DROVE AT 65 MPH TO WORK VIA FREEWAY WITH NO PROBLEMS. AFTER LUNCH I DROVE AT 45 MPH BACK TO WORK ON A STREET AND NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON AND SIMULTANEOUSLY THE TRUCK THEN STARTING DRIVING EXTREMELY SLUGGISH AND AND FAR BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT OBSTRUCTING THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. I CAREFULLY GOT OVER AND DROVE THE TRUCK ONLY ALLOWED AT 30 MPH BACK TO THE OFFICE. AFTER CAREFULLY DRIVING HOME VIA STREET AT THE END OF THE DAY I GOT HOME AND REMOVED THE NEGATIVE WIRE FROM BATTERY AND RE-CONNECTED IT TO SEE IF THIS WOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE. AFTER DOING SO, THE RESULTS WERE THE LIGHTS IN THE DASH WERE NOW OFF AND THE TRUCK DROVE PROPER WITH NO HINDRANCE. THIS WOULD LAST UNTIL WEDNESDAY 24TH. BOTH LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND THE TRUCK STARTED AGAIN DRIVING SLUGGISHLY. ITS SEEM THAT WHEN THE LIGHT IS OFF THE TRUCK DRIVES FINE, BUT WHEN IT IS TRIGGERED THE TRUCK IS DRIVES EXTREMELY SLUGGISH. COULD THE BE A DEFECTIVE PART? ANY HELP WOULD BE USEFUL.
