THE AIR INDUCTION PUMP (AIP) ON 2007-2010 ARE COVERED BY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 10 YEARS DUE TO FAILURES. MY 2011 TUNDRA, MANUFACTURED IN 2010 HAS THE EXACT SAME FAILURE AND THE PART IS THE EXACT SAME PART THAT IS BEING REPLACED ON 2010'S BUT IT WILL COSTS ME $2345.00 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. TOYOTA KNOWS IT HAS A DEFECTIVE (AIP) BUT REFUSES TO COVER THE 2011'S UNTIL ENOUGH CONSUMERS COMPLAIN.

AT ABOUT 2,000 MILES AGO THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SHAKING AND RUMBLING MAINLY WHEN IT WAS IN 5TH GEAR. THE DIAGNOSIS OF THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING BAD AND WILL NEED REPLACED FOR $3,000. THE TRUCK ONLY HAVE 90K ON IT, AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE IT REPLACED. AT JUST OVER 90K ON THE TRUCK THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT ALREADY BE GOING OUT. *TR

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 PUT VEHICLE IN PARK AND GOT OUT TO CLOSE A GATE ON MY FARM PROPERTY. WHEN I REALIZED THE VEHICLE STARTED ROLLING BACKWARDS, I TRIED TO GET BACK IN TO STOP IT. THE DOOR KNOCKED ME DOWN AND PICK UP ALMOST RAN OVER ME. I DID A BACKWARDS SUMMERSALT TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF ROLLING PICKUP. WHEN I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET UP AND GET TO PICK UP, IT HAD SLOWED DUE TO THE JACK KNIFING OF THE BALE BUGGY I WAS TOWING. PLASTIC AND RUBBER IN THE SHIFTER HAD TO BE PUSHED BACK INSIDE SHIFTER CASE BEFORE I COULD PUT BACK IN PARK POSITION. LATER THAT SAME DAY, I PUT IN PARK IN PARKING LOT AND IT JUMPED INTO REVERSE AGAIN. LUCKILY I WAS STILL IN VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS IN THE SHIFTER CONSOLE BUT ACTUAL PROBLEM IS UNKNOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES. TWICE I WAS OUT OF VEHICLE. TWICE I WAS STILL IN DRIVERS SEAT. ONLY ONE TIME DID THIS PROBLEM RESULT IN INJURY.

I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME TO CALL THEM AGAIN. TOYOTA CORPORATE KEEP DENYING!! I URGED TOYOTA COMPANY IMMEDIATELY TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAIL PRODUCT.

THE VEHICLE EXHIBITS AN INTERMITTENT RUBBING OR METAL-ON-METAL GRINDING NOISE FROM THE REAR WHEELS WHEN MAKING TURNS. INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE REAR BRAKE DISKS ARE RUBBING ON THE METAL BRAKE DISK SHIELD DURING LATERAL LOADING EXPERIENCED IN TURNS. THE PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN MORE FREQUENT AND MORE PRONOUNCED OVER THE PAST 12-18 MONTHS AND 10-15K MILES. TOYOTA BELIEVES THE CAUSE IS FAILED REAR AXLE BEARINGS. THE VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 72K MILES AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY AND AT A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. TOYOTA HAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (T-SB-0013-13) ON THE ISSUE BUT THEY CLAIM THIS IS NORMAL WEAR AND WILL NOT WARRANTY THE PROBLEM. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SERIOUS DEFECT OF A MAJOR DRIVE TRAIN SYSTEM AND NOT NORMAL WEAR.

THE TUNDRA IS A 2011 AND THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WHEEL HAS BEEN THE ISSUE. I WAS ON A CITY STREET ABOUT 2AM WHEN A LOUD CRASH AND THUNDERING MADE DRIVING VERY HARD. THE REAR WHEEL HAD SHEARED OFF AND WAS PASSING ME BY AS I SLOWED DOWN SPARKS FLYING LIKE THE FOURTH OF JULY!! I HAD BEEN GOING 25 MILES AN HOUR IN A RESIDENTIAL SETTING. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE DEALER WHOM AGREED THIS WAS AN OBSCURE OCCURRENCE, TO WHICH THEY WARRANTIED AND FIXED IT. THIS OCCURRED AT 250,000 MILES SO THAT SEEMED LIKE A SATISFACTORY ENDING! HOWEVER, AT 3500 MILES LATER GOING 70MPH DOWN INTERSTATE 20 AT 4 AM A HORRENDOUS CRASH ( NOISE) AND ALMOST FLIPPING THE SAME TIRE SHEARED AGAIN PASSING ME BY!! I WAS LUCKY THAT I DIDNT FLIP! TOYOTAS EXPLANTION... THEY COULDNT/WOULDNT PROVIDE ME ONE BUT DID FIX MY PROBLEM AS THE FRICTION SANDED DOWN INTO THE ROTOR AND SHOCK ABSORBER HANGER!! NOT SURE IF OTHER FOLKS HAVE HAD THIS EXPERIENCE?? I DID ENCOUTER ANOTHER FELLOW (MY SON) WHOM HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE AT 250,000 MILES ON THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WITH A TOYOTA TUNDRA 2012 HE OWNED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS TO WHAT THE ROOT CAUSE IS!! I FELT LIKE TOYOTA TOOK CARE OF ME REPAIR WISE BUT NEVER GOT A STRAIGHT ANSWER FROM THEM ON THE CAUSE!! I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR AGENCY AND ITS RESOURCES LOOKING INTO WHAT IS CAUSING THIS DANGEROUS CONDTION

CAM TOWER SEAL PROBLEMS CURRENTLY MY TUNDRA IS HAVING A CAMSHAFT TOWER SEALS PROBLEM/GASKET. I THOUGHT MY TRUCK WAS GOING TO CATCH ON FIRE SEVERAL TIMES WITH MY GRAND KIDS INSIDE WHILE DRIVING.'.WITH IT SMOKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS IS HIGHLY UNUSUAL FOR A TOYOTA. I THOUGHT IT WOULD HAVE STOPPED BY NOW, BUT IT HAS NOT. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK. IN DOING MY RESEARCH, WHICH I UNDERSTAND IS A BIG REPAIR JOB AS IT REQUIRES DISMANTLING PART OF THE ENGINE; THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL YEAR THAT I CURRENTLY OWN (2011). THERE ARE ALSO SEVERAL OTHER MODEL YEARS THAT IT IS ALSO HAPPENING AS WELL (2011-13), IN WHICH AGAIN CAN CAUSE THE TRUCK TO CATCH FIRE, HARMING OR EVEN KILLING SOMEONE. IF NOT COMPLETED NOW OR TAKE ANY ACTION, TOYOTA COULD LOSE MONEY. YOU COULD EVEN STOP LAWSUITS THAT WILL BE FORTHCOMING WITH THIS ISSUE IF SOMEONE IS HARMED OR EVEN KILLED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS!! THIS IS MY SIXTH TOYOTA PURCHASE. THE MAIN REASONS FOR ME CHOOSING TOYOTA OVER FORD, GM, ETC. ARE QUALITY AND RELIABILITY. I WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO FIX MY ISSUE AT NO COST TO ME AND MAYBE RECALL THIS ERROR THAT TOYOTA SHOULD BE AWARE OF ON THESE MODEL TUNDRA TRUCKS. THIS HONEST GESTURE WOULD BOLSTER MY CONFIDENCE IN THE REASONS I MADE IN PURCHASING A TOYOTA.
