NHTSA Complaint #11396820 — 2014 TOYOTA TUNDRA

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A NOTIFICATION FOR NO TRACTION CONTROL CAME ON. THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AND WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO GO OVER 50MPH, AND STRUGGLED TO GO UP HILLS. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S THE AIR INJECTION VALVES. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE PARTS AND FOUND THAT IT IS COMMON FOR THEM TO GO BAD, AND THAT TOYOTA HAS PUT OUT A MEMO STATING THAT IT WOULD BE A COVERED REPAIR FOR VEHICLES UP TO THE 2010 MODELS WITH UP TO 150,000 MILES. IN MY RESEARCH I FOUND THAT IT STILL CONTINUES TO BE AN ISSUE EVEN IN LATER MODELS. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA THAT IF THEY KNOW THIS IS A CONSISTENT ISSUE THAT THEY SHOULD RECALL THE PART. SINCE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WITH LIMITED POWER I HAD TO USE MY HAZARD LIGHTS UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GET TO A SAFE LOCATION.
