THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT THE RIGHT LIGHT BULB KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF UNEXPECTEDLY. IN ADDITION, THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR HAS LOTS OF RUST, THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY.
TRUCK NEEDS ITS 3RD SET OF TIRES AT 50K MILES - ALWAYS WEAR ON OUTSIDE MOST SEVERELY BUT ACROSS AS WELL - BRIDGESTONE DUELERS (ON NEW TRUCK FROM DEALER) - REPLACED BY FIRESTONE SET THAT WORE THE SAME - ROTATED, BALANCED AND ALIGNMENT CHECKED ON-SCHEDULE AND NO ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS NOTED - BY 10K TIRES LOOK LIKE THEY NEED CHANGED
JUST RECENTLY I HAVE NOTICED A VERY WEIRD SOUND FROM THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL AREA. I HAD THE LOCAL DEALER IN TWIN FALLS IDAHO LOOK INTO AND FOUND NOTHING, THEY SAID BRAKES WERE GOOD, AND THEY HAD GREASED EVERYTHING. SO AFTER MY SERVICE I FIGURED IT WOULD GO AWAY AND IT DIDN'T. I'VE ALSO PUT NEW TIRES ON FOR THE WINTER SINCE THIS WEIRD RUBBING SOUND HAS STARTED AND IT'S STILL MAKING THE SOUND. I'M NOT SURE IF JUST THE SERVICE GUY KNOWS WHAT HE IS LOOKING FOR, BUT THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING NOT RIGHT WITH THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL AREA. I'M NOT SURE WHAT ELSE I CAN DO OR SHOULD DO. THE TRUCK CURRENTLY HAS 51000 MILES ON IT. *TR
WAS STRUCK SIDE STRUCK BY A VEHICLE RUNNING A RED LIGHT. MY HEAD STRUCK THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW, TRANSPORTED BY FIRE & RESCUE TO LOCAL HOSPITAL. HOSPITAL DIAGNOSIS WAS A "CLOSED WOUND CONCUSSION". OTHER DRIVER WAS CHARGED ON MULTIPLE COUNTS. MECHANICS THAT REPAIRED MY TRUCK ESTIMATE THE VEHICLE THAT HIT ME WAS TRAVELLING 40-45MPH. MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. IMPACT AREA ON MY TRUCK WAS FRONT DRIVER SIDE QUARTER PANEL AND FRONT LEFT TIRE. HAVE VIEWED A SIDE IMPACT CRASH TEST FOR MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR. IN THAT TEST THE AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY AND THE DRIVER DUMMY HIT HEAD IN EXACT LOCATION AS I DID. I WOULD ASSUME THE CRASH TEST DUMMY WOULD NOT HAVE RECEIVED A CONCUSSION DUE TO THE PROTECTION FROM THE SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. ONE OF THE REASONS FOR MY PURCHASE OF THIS VEHICLE WAS THE SAFETY ASPECT. THE MANUFACTURER MARKETED THE AIRBAG SYSTEM AS A KEY SELLING POINT. I DID HAVE MY SEAT BELT ON AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH. I CAN PROVIDE POLICE ACCIDENT REPORT, PHOTOS OF BOTH VEHICLES, REPAIR DETAIL FOR MY TRUCK AND PERSONAL DAMAGE. *TR

I OWN AN 08 TOYOTA TUNDRA. HAVE DONE ALL MAINTENANCE WORK AND HAVE RECORDS. HAD THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL PROBLEM FIXED (?) BY TOYOTA IN WELLESLEY MASSACHUSETTS ON 2/5/10. THE DATE BELOW IS APPROXIMATE, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND IT TOOK OFF SMASHING MY REAR BUMPER WHICH I PAID TO FIX. I JUST THANK GOD THAT WAS NOT A CHILD BEHIND MY CAR. SINCE THEN THERE HAVE BEEN TOO MANY INCIDENTS TO COUNTS WITH THE ACCELERATOR STICKING. CALLED TOYOTA BOTH DEALERSHIP AND COMPANY AND WAS TOLD MY TRUCK HAS BEEN FIXED. I AM HERE TO TELL YOU IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THE MORE MILES I PUT ON THE CAR THE MORE FREQUENTLY THIS HAPPENS. I WAS ON CHANNEL 5 NEWS IN MASS ON FRIDAY 3/5 AND SAT 3/6 REGARDING THIS CONTINUING PROBLEM. TOYOTA IS NOT OFFERING A RENTAL WHILE THEY LOOK AT IT AND THIS IS A WORK TRUCK FOR ME. I DON'T WORK I DON'T GET PAID AND I STILL OWE 16K ON THE TRUCK. I AM SENDING A CERTIFIED LETTER TO CORPORATE TOYOTA AND PUTTING THEM ON NOTICE REGARDING THE LIABILITY ON THIS MATTER, WHICH IS HUGE. I AM NOT LOSING MY HOME AND EVERYTHING I HAVE WORKED HARD FOR ALL MY LIFE BECAUSE TOYOTA HAS A PROBLEM THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT. I MYSELF DO NOT BELIEVE THERE WAS EVER A FLOOR MAT PROBLEM, THAT WAS A DELAY TACTIC. BUT I AM REPORTING TO YOU AS I WAS INSTRUCTED TO DO BY CHANNEL 5 NOT TOYOTA OR THE DEALERSHIP BUT BY THE NEWSCASTER THAT BROADCAST MY STORY. THE ACCELERATION IS HAPPENING AT LEAST 5-9 TIMES A WEEK AT VARIOUS TIMES. IF YOU CAN HELP PLEASE DO. THANK YOU. *TR
