Consumer Description

I OWN A 2012 TUNDRA WITH THE 4.6 LITER V8 ENGINE. VERY VERY SIMILAR OR EXACT TO OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS BOARD. TRUCK WENT INTO LIMP MODE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD TO PAY TO HAVE THEM REPLACE THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTION PUMPS AND VALVES. I AGREE THE FIX NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED TO ALL YEAR MODELS AND ENGINE SIZE TUNDRAS, NOT JUST UP TO 2011. ALSO AGREE THAT THESE DEFECTS COULD RESULT IN A FATAL SITUATION IF NOT CORRECTED ACROSS THE BOARD. TOYOTA SHOULD ALSO REIMBURSE THOSE THAT HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR.
