Consumer Description

IN EVENING HOURS DECEMBER 2017 I STARTED MY TRUCK AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND FLASHING 4 LOL WAS ON. DROVE HOME AND HAD CORRODIED BATTERY TERMINAL. RESET LOTT AND WENT AWAY. ON FEBRUARY 23TH, 2018 MY WIFE STARTED TRUCK AND ALL THREE LIFTS WERE ON AGAIN. MADE A APPOINTMENT WITH TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED HAD WEAK AIR INJECTION PUMP AND CLOSED SWITCH VALVE. THEY WROTE CAUSE OF HIGH WATER. DROVE OFF THE LOT AND THE LOGS CAME ON AGAIN. I'VE NOT EVEN OWN D MY TRUCK FOR TWO YEARS AND NEVER HAD IT THROUGH HIGH WATER. TOYOTA TOLD ME IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY FOR THE AIR SYSTEM, BECAUSE MY TRUCK IS A 2012. THE COST TO FIX THIS WAS $3,000 DOLLARS. ON WAY HOME MY TRUCK WAS IN LIMP MODE AND I BARELY WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT UP A HILL. NOW I'M OUT OF A TRUCK FOR WORK AND CAN BARELY DRIVE ACROSS TOWN. THERE IS NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THE AIR INJECTION SYSTEM FAILING AND NO ONE HAS OPENED A INVESTIGATION.
