Was rear ended while at a stop in traffic. Was pushed into another truck in the front and ricochet back and was hit again by the car that hit me. After everyone came to a stop my dashboard information center stated the SRS Airbag System Malfunction Visit Your Dealer. My truck was totaled.

While descending a steep grade towing an 8,000lb travel trailer using appropriate hill descent braking techniques, an error message came on the dash indicating a trailer wiring, type, or connection fault. From this point forward, I had no trailer brakes and was left with truck brakes only. I got the truck/trailer combination to the bottom of the grade safely, however this could have been catastrophic for an inexperienced driver or in a different situation. Upon further investigation, this is a common problem with Toyota Tundra’s, and acknowledged by Toyota in TSB # T-SB-0036-19 issued on April 1, 2019. The dealer and Toyota Customer Service will not acknowledge this, and states it is something only covered under the 3 year warranty. My question for you, the NHTSA, is how would this not be considered a safety issue, when the issue comes on unexpectedly under less than ideal circumstances, especially when Toyota has acknowledged that there is a problem with their brake controller. This is a safety issue, not a warranty issue. Toyota will be held accountable for any injury or death caused by my vehicle in this situation.

Cam tower is leaking oil. I was told by the dealership that the oil is dripping onto the exhaust and could cause a fire! The truck is five years old with only 35000 miles on it! Apparently the sealant that is supposed to hold the cam tower together can start leaking oil! But I didn't expect it to leak with this new of a truck and this low of miles! I got on line and apparently this is happening quite a bite on tundras!

Vehicle shut off while driving, had to push vehicle to the side to prevent traffic, vehicle would not start after that. Towed it home and had a mechanic look at it. Read codes for a failed fuel pump and also tested by opening fuel rail and cranking the engine, no fuel was coming out. Read online that multiple people have failing fuel pumps with the same vehicle. Dealer says there are no open recalls associated with my vin.

Fuel pump needs replacement . If it failed while driving it could have made the vehicle stall creating a hazard. The vehicle was brought to the dealership and it was confirmed the fuel pump was bad. No warning light came on. The problem was notice while trying to start the vehicle.

It shows online that a 2018 Toyota Tundra has a recall for fuel pump and a recall is a recall and it is not showing and I feel like our Toyota Tundra was deleted for a recall for our fuel pump to be replaced mine has went out but Toyota Tundra told us at Cowboy Toyota because it has more than 90,000 miles that it will not be covered. I feel like if there is a recall for our ECM and our fuel pump that a recall is a recall. I need to talk to someone to make a complaint. This is ridiculous i have never had a problem with any of my Toyotas and I feel there is a defective part for my 2018 Toyota Tundra if you google my truck make and model it does show there is a recall for my truck regardless of mileage. If you google it you will see that it is on recall for a 2018 Toyota Tundra 5.7 V8 fuel pump recall.
