SERVICE BRAKES
THE PARKING BRAKE WHEN FULLY APPLIED, BEGAN FAILING TO HOLD THE VEHICLE IN PLACE A WEEK AFTER PURCHASE. THE PARKING BRAKE HAS BEEN ADJUSTED TWICE BY THE DEALER. THE PARKING BRAKE PETAL WHILE FULLY PRESSED TO THE FLOOR, DOES NOT APPEAR STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THE VEHICLE IN PLACE, ESPECIALLY WHEN PARKED ON A HILL. THE DEALER TRIED TO ADJUST THE PARKING BRAKE TIGHTER DURING A WARRANTY REPAIR ON 7/25/2015 . AS A RESULT, THE BRAKES LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THE PARKING BRAKE WAS READJUSTED AGAIN BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT DAY TO IT'S NORMAL POSITION. THE PARKING BRAKE CONTINUES TO FAIL TO HOLD THE VEHICLE IN PLACE.

WHEN I PURCHASED MY TRUCK NEW AND WAS ON MY WAY HOME I NOTICED A VERY SMALL DENT ON THE TOP SIDE OF MY BED. I DECIDED NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT AS IT WAS BARELY VISIBLE NOR DID I WANT SOMEBODY TO DO BODYWORK TO FIX IT. LONGEVITY ISSUES WITH AFTER THE FACT BODY AND PAINT WORK. UNFORTUNATELY AS TIME WENT ON AND I WAS USING MY TRUCK IT STARTED DEVELOPING MORE DENTS ON THE TOP SIDE OF MY BED. I NOW HAVE 5 OR MORE ON EACH SIDE. I HAVE NEVER HIT THE SIDE OF MY BED WITH ANYTHING. BESIDES, ALL THE DENTS ARE THE SAME IN APPEARANCE. TOYOTA SAYS ITS MY PROBLEM NOT THEIRS AS IT APPEARS TO BE OF AN OUTSIDE INFLUENCE. I HAVE SEEN OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS AS MINE. JUST NOT AS BAD. THE TRUCK IS SUPPOSED TO HANDLE 1300 TO 1800 LBS IN THE BED BUT WHEN I LOAD IT WITH APPROXIMATELY 1,000 LBS IT BOTTOMS OUT OVER SPEED BUMPS. I THINK THIS IS WHERE THE ISSUES ARE COMING FROM. THE BED IS FLEXING DUE TO BAD ENGINEERING AND MATERIALS AND CAUSING RIPPLES IN THE BED. ITS UNFORTUNATE THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE A BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH DENTS AND ALL THEY CAN SAY IS ITS NOT THERE PROBLEM. I SENT A CERTIFIED LETTER TO THEM DATED MARCH 18. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP *TR

2014 TUNDRA 1794 EDITION PURCHASED NEW IN MAY 2014 HAS APPROXIMATELY 9400 MILES. THE DASHBOARD IS WARPED & SINKING ALONG LENGTH OF WINDSHIELD. PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE OVER TIME. MANUFACTURER STATES THIS DEFECT IS WITHIN SPECIFICATION WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES. THE DASHBOARD HAS SANK SO MUCH THAT THERE IS AN IMPRINT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IN DASHBOARD THAT IS VISIBLE DUE TO WARPING & SAGGING OF DASHBOARD. I AM CONCERNED IT MAY AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IF THE SINKING AND WARPING OF THE DASHBOARD WERE TO CONTINUE. TOYOTA HAD PAST ISSUES WITH WARPED DASHBOARDS ON EARLIER MODELS OF TUNDRA AND HAD ISSUED TSB'S (TSB-0391-09-IMPROVED A-PILLAR GARNISH) IN RESPONSE. IT APPEARS THIS DEFECT HAS NOT BEEN FULLY ADDRESSED AS THEY STATE OTHER NEW TUNDRA'S THEY INSPECTED ON DEALERSHIP LOT HAVE THE SAME WARPED & SINKING DASHBOARD. ADDITIONALLY, A PLASTIC PART ON STEERING WHEEL IS LOOSE WHEN PRESSURE IS APPLIED AFFECTING STEERING AND OPERATION OF VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER (TOYOTA) STATES THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE VEHICLE AND HAS SUGGESTED I PURSUE ARBITRATION UNDER LEMON LAW FOR THE VEHICLE. AT THIS STAGE, ALL I AM ASKING FOR IS FOR THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE MANUFACTURER (TOYOTA) REFUSES TO DO SO DESPITE KNOWING FULL WELL THERE IS A HISTORY OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL DOOR LOCK SYSTEMS ON TRUCKS. NAMELY DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS. I HAD A 2012 TOYOTA 4RUNNER 2 ACTUATORS WENT OUT. NOW A 2014 TUNDRA DRIVERS DOOR ACTUATOR WENT BAD AT 6 MONTHS. SURE TOYOTA WILL FIX THIS IF YOUR IN WARRANTY. AFTER THAT IT'S MY $400-500 BILL. IT'S WIDELY KNOW ON THE INTERNET THESE ACTUATORS A FAULTY BUT TOYOTA JUST KEEPS PUTTING THESE ON NEW TRUCKS. IF THESE ARE NOT WORKING I COULD GET CAR JACKED. CAN I GET OUT IF IN AN ACCIDENT, AS I HAVE TO REMEMBER TO MANUALLY FLIP THE LEVER TO GET OUT. IN A PARKING LOT IS SOMEONE GOING TO HAVE EZ ACCESS TO MY VALUABLES? I AM A LICENSED OHIO CONCEALED CARRY. SOMETIMES I FIREARM IS LOCKED IN THE TRUCK. IS IT REALLY LOCKED? *TR
