ENGINE
I WAS PULLING OUT OF WORK. YOU MUST CROSS 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC PLUS THE CENTER MEDIAN TO TURN LEFT. THIS IS A CITY STREET. SPEED LIMIT IS 45 I BELIEVE WITH MANY VEHICLES GOING FASTER. VEHICLE HAD THE SMOG AIR INJECTION PUMPS AND VALVES FAIL. THIS CUTS POWER DRASTICALLY TO THE ENGINE AND PUTS IT INTO LIMP MODE. I WAS FORCED TO SWERVE BACK INTO AND STAY IN THE CENTER MEDIAN INSTEAD OF MERGE INTO TRAFFIC AS THE VEHICLE HAD LITTLE POWER. I WAS ABLE TO WAIT FOR A BIGGER GAP IN TRAFFIC AND LIMP THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP. I BELIEVE THIS COULD BE DEADLY SHOULD IT OCCUR IF TRYING TO GET ON THE FREEWAY OR PULLING A TRAILER AND THE ENGINE CUTS POWER DRASTICALLY. TOYOTA HAS A LONG HISTORY OF ISSUES WITH THESE PARTS FAILING GOING BACK TO 2007 AND POSSIBLY EARLIER. THERE IS NO NEED FOR A SMOG PUMP FAILURE THAT ONLY RUNS FOR 2 MINUTES ON COLD START TO DRASICALLY CUT ENGINE POWER AND ENDANGER THE DRIVER AND OTHER MOTORISTS.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED APROX 10 YEARS AGO. THE ISSUE THAT I HAVE HAD LOOKED AT BY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP REMAINS UNRESOLVED. WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE IT IMMEDIATELY LUNGES FORWARD AND TRAVELS WITHOUT FOOT ON THE GAS UP TO SPEED OF 15 MPH ON FLAT LEVEL GROUND. IT IS DEFINITELY NOT SAFE. IT COULD CAUSE?AN ACCIDENT. MY BROTHER'S INSISTED THAT I HAVE IT LOOKED AT BY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. I HAVE NOT HAD A SATISFACTORY ANSWER TO THIS ISSUE. AGAIN THE ANSWER REMAINS THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL. COULD IT BE A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE?

WHEELS
AT ONLY 77,000 MILES THE AXLE BEARINGS HAVE FAILED. THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE SINCE SEALED BEARINGS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP PARTS MANAGER SAYS THESE BEARINGS FAIL FREQUENTLY ON THE TUNDRAS.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING, MULTIPLE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON AND MY TRUCK WENT INTO "LIMP MODE," MEANING I LOST ALMOST ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. TURNS OUT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE AIR INJECTION PUMP, WHICH IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN TOYOTA TUNDRAS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO ADDRESS.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
LESS THAN 3000 MILES WHEN INCIDENT HAPPENED. WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH ON A HIGHWAY THE DASH SCREEN SAID BRAKE AND A CHIME WAS HEARD. IT WAS LATE EVENING 3 DAYS AGO AND THEIR WAS ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME. MY INITIAL REACTION WAS TO BRAKE HOWEVER I DID NOT. IT ALSO HAPPENED TWO ADDITIONAL TIMES AT ABOUT 45 MPH ON THE FINAL FEW MILES FROM MY HOME. THE INDICATOR DID NOT STAY ON LONG ENOUGH TO GET A PHOTO OF IT. WHEN I RETURNED HOME I FILED A CASE WITH TOYOTA USA. I THEN CALLED THEM THE NEXT DAY. TODAY I CONTACTED THE DEALER ABOUT TAKING IT IN FOR THE TO CHECK. AT THAT TIME THE SERVICE REP ADVISED ME THERE IS A RECALL ON THE PART SENSOR ON THE ANTI COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. I RECEIVED AN EMAIL REPLY FROM TOYOTA USA HOWEVER THE REPLY DID NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANY INFORMATION , OTHER THAN THE CASE WAS GOING TO BE ENTERED INTO THEIR DATABASE. THEY WILL PLACE A FOAMY TAPE ON THE BACK OF THE SENSOR AFTER RUNNING A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT. THIS SEEMS A BIT UNDER DONE AND A BAND AID FOR WHAT COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD. IF IT IS A WATER ISSUE (NO RAIN ON THE DAY IT HAPPENED AND DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE WAY TO MY DESTINATION) I RESEARCHED THE VIN FOR THE RECALL AND I RECEIVED "THERE IS NO RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH MY VIN, ANSWER. HOPEFULLY THE NHTSA WILL DO A SIMPLE WEBSITE SEARCH AND SEE THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE. I PREFER NOT TO HAVE ANY SAFETY ISSUES WHILE TRANSPORTING MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AT FIRST I STARTED HEARING WHAT SOUND LIKE A FAN RUNNING UNDER THE HOOD AFTER I STARTED MY TRUCK. ABOUT A WEEK LATER MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED BY THE TRACK LIGHT. CODE P2442 WHICH STATED THAT THE AIR INJECTOR PUMPS AND VALVES WERE FAILING. WE BROUGHT THE TRUCK TO TOYOTA AND THEY HAD TOLD US THAT IT WOULD COST US 4000.00 TO GET IT FIXED, AFTER CHARGING US 144.72 TO HOOK A CODE READER TO IT WHICH WOULD OF COST US NOTHING TO TAKE IT TO AUTO ZONE. OUR WARRANTY WAS SUPPOSED TO COVER BUMPER TO BUMPER UP 10YRS OR 100,000 MILES WITH EVER CAME FIRST. THEY TOLD US THAT OUR WARRANTY EXPIRED THE WEEK BEFORE WE BROUGHT IT IN.
