My ruck was recalledseveral years agofor the frame. To correct this issuea Toyota dealer spray the frame. This did not stop the frame from rusting. A lot of other people I talked to said their frames replaced with no questions asked. But not mine. When I talked Toyota for the new england territory, I was just given a run around. And nothing was done. There have been other recalls such as the air bag recall iam not sure that was done correctly. Recently I took my Toyota to Toyota of keene nh. I was told that they found other issues like the yransfer case was cracked in half. And there was a priblem with the head lights. Yes I can see there was a problem with the lights, someone at Toyota service did not plug them backin after they checked them. I had to move the battery to get at the head light think it was a bad bulb, not. And I lost the screw to the battery compartment some where intheengine area. I take great steps to keep my truck safe to drive and clean to look at.
Secondary air injection pump needs replaced. Code p1441 and p1444 error code. This recall only effects 2007-2009 models although the same problem was happening in 2005 and 2006. Mine being a 2006 isn't covered by a recall for the same issues. This is a 2k plus job. Thanks.
Vehicle kicks out of gear while driving would shift real hard into second gear taking off then when up to speed would kick out of gear as into neutral and coast randomly.
Inflated the tires to ensure proper psi's prior to operation. Tire warning light shuts on and off. Tire warning lights will remain on when vehicle is started, idling, and in operation. This is still an ongoing problem that has not been fully resolved. The tire sensors could be a contributing factor which is not being reported as well. Went to the local dealership and was told that they will not fix unless the recall is under Toyota's website and not the NHTSA. This is a potential safety issue that could result in an accident, injury, or death.
Power window controls are intermittent . Window freezes in the down position at random. So far only affects front passenger window . Toyota says since I didn't buy it new , too bad for me . I thought I saw a power window master switch recall on the news ? also the passenger airbag has shut off . Which I guess is a good thing . Toyota says just don't have anyone ride there ! really ? I have no word from them concerning how long must we all wait for repairs . My truck was under 90,000 miles and less than 10 years old when this happened , now its a year later . Also the drivers door release cable broke so you cannot get out . I fixed that myself , but what if the windows and the ,doors all failed and trapped you in there ? window stops and starts working randomly parked or driving , air bag shut off while parked , door cable broke while parked . Please tell me why the site says 1 recall ? I thought the window master switch was recalled . It should be . Thanks.
When shifting from park to drive over/drive turns off. You hit the button to turn it back on and start driving and it automatically shuts off again, no matter your speed. It has turned off on me doing 70mph and really bogs down the transmission. I found if you wiggle the rubber boot at the consul it will turn it back on. Read on google the wire is stripped from all the years of shifting and is shorting it out.
My young son (7) was attemping to play the video station that is part of my new Toyota Tundra's video system. The unit started to catch fire. Within a minute of being plugged in into the behind the headrest video, it started to smoke, black smoke. I quickly pulled over the truck, ran to the back and took the unit out of my son's hands before he was injured. The unit was extremely hot.
