2015 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

At irregular intervals and at the most random of times my headlights will cut out (including dash lights & radio). It happened this morning driving to the airport but it has been months since it last happened. The road was smooth with no bumps that I recall. This has happened to me in the past while stopped at a stop sign as well.

Vehicle has a leaking steering rack seal that when leaking does not give a warning. Vehicle loses power steering. Needs to be replenished regularly. Started out small, and was unaware of the issue. Started topping off the power steering fluid at around 24k miles (under warranty). A clunk in the suspension was diagnosed as a bad shock (bad diagnosis). Took it in to have the rack looked at by Toyota, but they will not remedy this issue, even though there are hundreds of people on the Internet with the same problem. I've never heard of a steering rack going bad before 100k miles, let alone before 30k.

When using the turn signal to indicate turning direction at night, all lights shut off randomly, leaving you with no way to see where you're going. This includes all cabin lights so you can't find the switch to turn the lights back on. This happen regularly. This has been detailed here: https://www.tundras.com/threads/auto-headlights-shut-off-with-turn-signal.22968 It seems Toyota knows about this problem already, as well as the fix for it, but won't voluntarily recall the vehicles to address it.

Truck shuts down after running for about 2 minutes; As if the ignition switch was turned off while driving. I then have to wait about 30 seconds to restart the truck. The truck will not start immediately after shutting off. It acts like something has to reset to allow the truck to start. The truck will do the same thing idling in my driveway. It starts right up; Runs about 2 minutes and shuts off. After 30 seconds the truck will restart. This is a danger on the highway. I do not have remote start.

GEAR SHIFTER HANGS UP IN PARK, TOYOTA WANTED $1,000.00 TO REPLACE TOTAL GEAR-SHIFTER THEY SAID IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM.

THE BOLT FOR THE WIPER BLADE ON THE DRIVER SIDE LOOSENS UP MAKING THE WIPER INOPERABLE AND BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS.

MULTIPLE RECALLS ISSUED FOR TOYOTA FUEL PUMP BUT NOT THIS YEAR. VEHICLE QUIT WHILE DRIVING, WOULD NOT START, TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE, AND ROUGH RUNNING. DEALER RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND SAID IT WAS A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP (JUST LIKE ALL PREVIOUS MODELS) AND REPLACED IT WITH THE REPLACEMENT USED IN THE OTHER RECALLS.

WHEN AT 55 DEGREES OR BELOW GETTING A MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 2, ENGINE LIGHT ON WITH TRACTION CONTROL OFF ON MY DISPLAY (NOT THE ACTUAL ICON). CODE READER SAYS P0302, C1201, AND B1242. ENGINE LIGHT STARTING FLASHING, JUDDERING REALLY BAD WHEN ACCELERATING TO 70MPH. WHEN AT 60 DEGREES OR HIGHER EVERYTHING IS NORMAL NO ENGINE LIGHT ON OR ANY JUDDERING.

FROM WHAT I CAN TELL FROM 2007 ONWARD TOYODA HAS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE SECONDARY AIR ARE THE AIP PUMPS , THERE MIXING WATER AND GAS IN TO THE CONTAINER PUMPS WHICH IS CAUSING FAULTY PUMPS IN GOING OUT . BEING THAT THIS IS PART OF THE EMISSIONS IT HAS SAFETY HAZARDS TO COME WITH IT SOMEONE NEEDS TO CHECK THIS OUT.

HARD STARTING ISSUE ON COLD START DUE TO FUEL PUMP/ECU FLEX FUEL ISSUE FFV ENGINE 3UR-FBE. DATA SHOWS READING FUEL ALCOHOL CONTENT @ 56% EVEN THOUGH I'VE NEVER RUN ETHANOL... THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM ID ON MANY TUNDRA THREADS ONLINE. IN ADDITION TO INCREASED ENGINE WEAR ON STARTS, FUEL ECONOMY IS REDUCED BECAUSE ENGINE IS MAPPED TO ETHANOL BASED FUEL INSTEAD OF STANDARD GASOLINE FUEL MAPPING.
