STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS:UNDERBODY SHIELDS, SUSPENSION
SIGNIFICANT FRAME CORROSION IN MULTIPLE AREAS TO INCLUDE ONE AREA WITH A HOLE ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE FRAME RAIL, AND MOST ACUTELY WHERE THE REAR LEAF SPRING CONNECTS TO THE FRAME WITH ONLY 50% OF THE CONTACT AREA APPEARING TO BE STRUCTURALLY SOUND. INSPECTED BY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHO RATED DAMAGE AS JUST BARELY BETTER THAN UNSAFE TO DRIVE, HOWEVER NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL. VEHICLE HAS 175K MILES ON IT, AND HAS SPENT THE MAJORITY OF ITS LIFE IN SC AND MD WHERE ROAD SALT USAGE IS LOW. FREQUENTLY CLEANED UNDERCARRIAGE, AND PERIODIC APPLICATION OF CORROSION PREVENTATIVE COMPOUNDS DID NOT ALTER OUTCOME WHICH IMPLIES POOR MATERIALS AND/OR MANUFACTURING DEFECTS. *TR

ON 11-5-2019 I WAS DRIVING MY 2001 TOYOTA TUNDRA, DOWN A CITY STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH WHEN I HEARD A LOUD SNAPPING, BREAKING NOISE AND THE RIGHT FRONT OF MY TRUCK COLLAPSED AND TRUCK VEERED TO THE RIGHT. MY FIRST INSTINCT WAS THAT I HAD A BLOWOUT. THERE WAS ENTRANCE TO CIRCLE K APPROXIMATELY 40-50 FEET AWAY. SKIDDING ALONG I WAS ABLE TO STEER THE TRUCK INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND OFF THE STREET. WHEN I GOT OUT TO CHECK I SAW THAT THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD COLLAPSED UNDER THE VEHICLE HAD SKIDDED ON THE TIRE AND RIM. THE TIRE WAS STILL HOLDING AIR BUT WAS SCRAPED DOWN TO THE CORD. THERE WERE NO POTHOLES OR ANY DEBRIS IN THE ROAD. I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO MY MECHANIC, PRIMARILY JAPANESE, AND HAD IT DIAGNOSED. BALL JOINTS WERE COMPLETELY BROKEN AND ALSO RUINING ABS SPEED SENSOR AND BRAKE HOSE. SEE ATTACHED INVOICE. MECHANIC ALSO DID A DIAGNOSIS ON THE ENTIRE FRONT END. ON 11-14-2019 PER THE ADVICE OF MY MECHANIC I HAD THEM REBUILD L BALL JOINTS AND LOWER AND UPPER CONTROL ARM. SEE ATTACHED INVOICE. I STILL HAVE NOT REPLACED THE R CONTROL ARMS WHICH THEY HAVE ADVISED I DO ASAP. IT WAS EXTREMELY FORTUNATE THAT MYSELF OR NO ONE ELSE WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *LN VEHICLE WAS TOWED.*JB

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
2012 TUNDRA 4.6 V8 MY TRUCK WILL GO INTO LIMP MODE AND THE 4LO LIGHT FLASHES, CHECK ENGINE, AND TRAC OFF LIGHTS WERE ALL ON. ALMOST COMPLETE LOSE OF POWER WILL HAPPEN. IN TRAFFIC I END UP BLOCKING EVER VEHICLE BEHIND ME, BECAUSE THE TRUCK WILL NOT REACH THE SPEED LIMIT. IF THERE IS A HILL THEN THE TRUCK BARELY MOVES GOING UP THE HILL. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE I SAW IT'S A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM ON TOYOTA WITH THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTION PUMP SEIZING. I CHECKED IT WITH THE CODE READER AT A LOCAL SHOP AND THE GUY CONFIRMED IT, CODE P2240 "AIR INJECTION SWITCHING VALVE STUCK OPEN BANK 1." HE TOLD ME HE USED TO WORK FOR TOYOTA AND KNEW THERE WAS THE EXTENDED REPAIR ON THIS ISSUE BUT COULDN'T RECALL THE SPECIFICS. I WENT INTO TOYOTA AND UNFORTUNATELY THEY WILL NOT COVER IT FOR MY TRUCK AFTER THEY RAN MY VIN NUMBER. IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF TUNDRAS WITH THE 5.7L MOTOR ARE COVERED BUT THE 4.6L MOTORS ARE NOT. I WAS INFORMED BY TOYOTA THAT IN THE FUTURE IT MIGHT BE COVERED.

I HAVE A ROTTING FRAME EVEN AFTER THE CRC TREATMENT WAS APPLIED FROM TOYOTA. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO PREVENT THE FRAME RUST ISSUE BUT IT ONLY LOCKS IN THE MOISTURE AND CAUSES MORE DAMAGE. TOYOTA WILL NOT HONOR THE FRAME REPLACEMENT DUE TO THIS CRC APPLICATION EVEN THOUGH IT DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I'M SURE THERE ARE MANY TOYOTA TUNDRAS, TACOMAS, AND SEQUOIAS DRIVING AROUND WITH FRAMES FALLING APART. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN NOT ONLY FOR THE DRIVER BUT ALSO FOR OTHER MOTORISTS.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE LENS COVER ON VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT CLEAR AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF USE, THEY ARE BECOMING FOGGED OVER BECAUSE THEY ARE MADE OUT OF PLASTIC AND THE SAND FROM OTHER VEHICLES GOING DOWN THE ROAD SANDBLAST THEM. THIS CAUSES THE HEADLIGHT TO NOT PROJECT THE LIGHT DOWN THE ROAD CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO OUT DRIVE THE HEADLIGHTS. THIS CAN CAUSE VEHICLE ACCIDENTS AND PEDESTRIAN INVOLVED ACCIDENTS. THEY USED TO BE MADE FROM GLASS AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS BEING ADDRESSED. THANK YOU.

I BOUGHT 2020 TOYOTA TUNDRA 1794, BLACK. I LOVE THIS TRUCK, BUT IT ANNOY ME WHEN EVERY TIME I START THE VEHICLE AND DRIVE ABOUT 15MILES/HOUR I HEAR AND FEEL A "CLUNK" SOUND UNDER THE FRONT DRIVE SIDE, AND FEEL IT ON THE GAS PEDAL. I HEARD THIS SOUND AFTER 5 DAYS SINCE I BOUGHT IT, I CALLED THE DEALER AND SET UP APPOINTMENT. I BROUGHT IT TO DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT, THEY CANNOT FIX IT. THAT PROBLEM BOTHERS ME ALL THE TINE. I DON'T KNOW THAT TO DO WITH IT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. 4LO SIGN FLASHED. VEHICLE GOES INTO LIMP MODE, SLOWING DOWN, AND AT TIMES CREEPING ALONG WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE IS A LARGE DECREASE IN PERFORMANCE ESPECIALLY GOING UP ANY SORT OF INCLINE. TOOK IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR EVALUATION. THEY RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT OF THE FUEL PUMP AND WAS TOLD TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THIS MAKE/MODEL IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AT THIS TIME. I CALLED THE TOYOTA HOTLINE, AND THE WORKER VERIFIED SHE COULD SEE INFO ON THE RECALL TALKING ABOUT WARNING SIGNS -BUT THEY WERE NOT SPECIFIC. SHE FORWARDED ON MY INFORMATION TO ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL. THAT INDIVIDUAL CALLED TODAY, AND SHE ADVISED MY WARRANTY WAS OVER AND MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

I HAD 2 WARNING MESSAGES APPEAR ON THE DASH WHILST DRIVING: 1. TRAILER BRAKE ERROR (IF TOWING COME TO A SAFE STOP WITH MANUAL CONTROLS.) CONTACT DEALER. 2. PRE COLLISION SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. VISIT YOUR DEALER. THE MESSAGES WOULD NOT CLEAR, DROVE 80 MILES (FREEWAY) OR SO HOME, TRUCK WAS RUNNING FINE, NO ISSUES ON THAT SIDE, THE FOLLOWING DAY I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED (AAA) DUE TO THE PRE COLLISION SYSTEM FAILURE ERROR... I GET A MESSAGE FROM THE DEALER TO SAY I HAVE FUEL CONTAMINATION AND IT'LL COST $1400 PLUS TANK REFILL, NO MENTION OF THE ERROR CODES THAT WERE ON! APPARENTLY THEY SAID DUE TO A MIS-FIRE IT THROWS THOSE CODES. I NEVER FELT AND MIS-FIRING WHILE DRIVING, WE PICKED THE TRUCK UP, FILLED HALF THE TANK ADDED INJECTOR CLEANER AS A PRECAUTION......THERE WERE NO RUNNING PROBLEMS, THE ERROR CODES HAVE GONE.... A ELECTRICAL ANOMALY....

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE POWER LOCKS FOR THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE FAIL TO WORK AS EXPECTED. IT IS NOT CONSISTENT. WHEN DRIVING, IT IS SUPPOSED TO LOCK AUTOMATICALLY FOR SAFETY BUT DOES NOT ALWAYS LOCK (OR UNLOCK WITH THE KEY FOB WHEN NEEDING TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE. PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR MOVING.
