Consumer Description

THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTION SYSTEMS SEEMS TO FAIL QUITE FREQUENTLY ON THESE 2012 TACOMAS WITH LITTLE TO NO HELP FROM TOYOTA TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE AS A RECALL. THESE ARE KNOWN TO FAIL RIGHT AFTER YOUR OUT OF WARRANTY AND TO CHARGE IT'S LOYAL CUSTOMERS OVER $1000 FOR A PART THAT SHOULD NOT FAIL OR A PART THAT SHOULD BE COVERED IS ABSURD. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL TOYOTA CUSTOMER MY WHOLE LIFE BUT THE ISSUES OF THE TACOMA ARE MAKING ME RETHINK MY DECISIONS AS AN AUTOMOTIVE CONSUMER
