AIR BAGS
A DUMP TRUCK CAME OFF OF THE HIGHWAY AND MADE AN ILLEGAL TURN IN FRONT OF ME. HE CAUSED A FRONTAL IMPACT ON MY VEHICLE AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS TRAVELING 55 MPH WITH A TRAILER ATTACHED AND SLAMMED ON BRAKES BUT STILL IMPACTED HIM REALLY HARD. I WAS ON THE FEEDER OR FRONTAGE ROAD.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL TANK IS SUPPOSE TO BE 37 GALLON. I HAVE NEVER PUT MORE THAN 28.5 GALLONS IN THE TANK. EVEN WHEN I RUN THE TANK TO THE RED LIGHT OR MY MILEAGE INDICATOR SHOW 20 OR LESS MILES REMAINING. I HAVE ASK THE DEALERSHIP TWICE ABOUT THIS AND THEY CLAIM IS A SAFETY FEATURE SO YOU DON'T RUN OUT OF FUEL. I RUN THE TANK DOWN TO 10 MILES LEFT IN TANK AND THAT IS WHEN I PUT 28.5 GALLONS INTO IT.

ENGINE
WITH ONLY 81,719 MILES ON MY TRUCK I HAD TO HAVE THE AIR INJECTION PUMP & VALVES REPLACED ON 3/29/2019. I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WHICH HAD BEEN RECALLED IN THE 2011 & 2010 MODELS. IF A RECALL IS MADE WITHIN A YEAR OF THE PART BEING REPLACED I WILL BE REIMBURSED. I WORK FROM HOME AND THE TRUCK HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN FOR LEISURE OR CHORES FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. IT WAS DRIVEN DAILY IN LAS VEGAS FROM 2015-2017 AND IN ORLANDO FROM 2012-2015. THERE HAVE BEEN NO OTHER ENGINE PROBLEMS. IN JANUARY OF 2019 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR WAS PERFORMING WITH LESS POWER BUT EVERYTHING WORKED OKAY. INSTEAD OF DRIVING AN 8 CYLINDER TRUCK IT FELT LIKE DRIVING A FULL SIZE TRUCK WITH ONLY 4 CYLINDERS. THE ISSUE HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND THEN THE PERFORMANCE JUST WENT SOUTH. I WAITED 2 MONTHS TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT BECAUSE I RARELY DRIVE AND BECAUSE IT STILL RAN BUT WITH LESS POWER. I WAS TOLD BY TOYOTA THAT IF ANOTHER MECHANIC FIXED THE PROBLEM AND A RECALL CAME LATER THEN I WOULD NOT BE REIMBURSED. AFTER I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WOULD MORE THAN LIKELY BECOME A RECALL I MOVED FORWARD WITH USING TOYOTA'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT. MY GOAL IS TO FIND OUT IF THERE IS A RECALL PENDING FOR THE 2012 TUNDRA AIR INJECTION SYSTEM OR AT LEAST FIND OUT IF THE PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD. IF I WAS TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY A DEALERSHIP USING THE RECALL AS A TACTIC TO GET MY BUSINESS I WANT TO MAKE SURE TO LET OTHERS KNOW SO I HOPE SOMEONE FROM THE NHTSA WILL FOLLOW UP.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
IN MID DECEMBER, 2019, I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE SPARE TIRE DROPPED FROM UNDER MY 2003 TOYOTA TUNDRA. FORTUNATELY, NO VEHICLES WERE BEHIND ME AT THE TIME. I WAS SO SURPRISED TO SEE THAT TIRE BOUNCING DOWN THE ROAD BEHIND ME! THAT SPARE TIRE HAD NEVER BEEN TAKEN FROM THE CARRIER. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A TOYOTA DEALER FOR INSPECTION/RECALL IN EARLY FEBRUARY. THEY SAID THE CORROSION ON THE CROSS-MEMBER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BUT THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER CORROSION ISSUE CAUSING THE TIRE TO DROP WAS ONLY FOR RECALLS ON THE TACOMA MODELS, I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ISSUE. I FEEL THIS IS A TOYOTA MANUFACTURING SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. DO I HAVE ANY RECOURSE?

I TOOK MY TUNDRA IN FOR A OIL CHANGE AND THE DEALER SHIP SAID I HAVE OIL LEAK AT THE TIMING BELT. IT WOULD BE OVER 1600.00 TO FIX THIS. IT IS TIME CONSUMING FOR THE LABOR RATE IS HIGH. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 45,000 MILES ON IT.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1ST OFF, I DRIVE A 2018 TUNDRA, MY INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER DOESNT APPLY BRAKES ON ANY TRAILER. IT THROWS AN ERROR MESSAGE AND WILL NOT WORK ON ANY TRAILER TYPE SETTINGS. HAD TRAILER CHECKED AND TESTED WITH OTHER VEHICLES AND TRAILER WORKS FINE. AND OF COURSE THE SAME EXACT ISSUE IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET SINCE 2016 AND UP, WITH NO FIX OR RESPONIBILITES TAKEN ON TOYOTAS PART. NOT HABING TRAILER BRAKES IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND BELIEVE THAT IF I PAID FOR THE BRAKE SYSTEM I SHOULD HAVE TO BUY AN AFTERMARKET ONE JUST TO PULL MY TRAILERS SAFELY. 2ND ISSUE IS ONCE AGAIN ELECTRICAL, THE RADIO SHUT ON AND OFF EVERY 10 MINUTES OR SO...WILL NOT KEEP PRESETS SAVED ETC, TOLD TOYOTA AND THEY TRIED TO DOWNLOAD AND UPDATE AND SAID THE RADIO WOULDN'T EXCEPT THE DOWNLOAD. OF COURSE TRUCK IS OUT OF THE HORRIBLE OFFERED 30K MILE WARRANTY....SO I HAVE A 2018 TUNDRA 4X4 THAT HAS A BROKEN RADIO AND CAN'T EVEN PULL A TRAILER.....HARD TO WANNA MAKE A PAYMENT FOR THAT KINDA STUFF.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE ACTIVATION OF TURN SIGNAL INTERMITTENTLY SHUTS OFF HEADLIGHTS. TO RE-ENERGIZE HEADLIGHTS I HAVE TO MANUALLY SWITCH THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH FROM AUTO TO ON. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING AND DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IN RURAL AREAS. I AM HOPING SOMEONE ADDRESSES THIS WITH TOYOTA, SINCE IF THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE THEY SEND YOU HOME!

AIR BAGS
WE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER SOME TIME IN NOVEMBER FOR OUR TOYOTA TUNDRA. I REACHED OUT TO STEVEN TOYOTA IN HARRISONBURG VIRGINIA SHORTLY AFTER RECEIVING THE LETTER. I WAS TOLD THEY NEEDED TO ORDER THE PART AND WOULD CALL BACK WHEN RECEIVED. I NEVER RECEIVED A CALL FROM STEVEN TOYOTA, AND HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTED TO GET THIS RESOLVED WITH MULTIPLE CALLS TO THE DEALERSHIP SINCE EARLY JANUARY. THE CALLS TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT EITHER GO TO VOICE MAIL OR ARE HUNG UP ON AFTER MULTIPLE RINGS. I FINALLY GOT A HOLD OF A SERVICE PERSON ON JANUARY 30TH, WHO SAID THEY WOULD CALL BACK IN TEN MINUTES WHEN THEY FOUND OUT INFORMATION. I NEVER RECEIVED A CALL. I ATTEMPTED TO CALL BACK TODAY, AND THE CALL WENT TO VOICE MAIL. I DO HAVE A RECORD OF ATTEMPTED PHONE LOG ON MY PHONE. I CALLED STEVENS BACK AND TOLD THE RECEPTIONIST I WOULD BE FILING A COMPLAINT, AND SHE RESPONDED " I'M SORRY FOR YOUR INCONVENIENCE."
