2014 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

AT 40,000 MILES ALL 4 DOOR LOCKS STOPPED WORKING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED.

I WAS CARRYING AN OLD BATTERY ON THE TRUCK BED AND THE BATTERY LEAKS SO THE FLUID SPILLED OVER MY FUEL TANK AND BURN/CORRODE THE VACUUM AND GAS LINES. I THINK THE FUEL TANK SHOULD BE PROTECTED WITH AN UPPER SKILL PLATE BECAUSE IS A TRUCK AND YOU ALWAYS CARRY DIFFERENT THINGS AND THIS IS KIND OF EXPOSE OR DRAIN HOLES OF THE BED ARE NOT LOCATED PROPERLY, SO THEY WANNA CHARGE ME 2K DLS FOR SOMETHING THAT IS A BAD DESIGN PROBLEM.

THE TOYOTA 5.7L V8 ENGINE FOUND IN TOYOTA TUNDRAS, SEQUOIAS, SIENNAS, LAND CRUISERS, AND LEXUS LX570S SUFFER FROM CAM SHAFT TOWER LEAKAGE, AND IT WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN TO ANYONE THAT OWNS ONE. IT CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE FROM 1K MILES TO 100K MILES, BUT IT CAN DAMAGE THE ENGINE AND OTHER IMPORTANT PARTS AND THEREFORE SHOULD BE RECALLED. IT IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE, AS IT LEAKS IN TO THE EXHAUST AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE. I OWN A 2014 TUNDRA THAT HAS THIS ISSUE AND THE DEALER WANTS ME TO PAY $3K TO FIX IT!

PZ169 OIL FILTER COLLAPSED; TOOK TRUCK TO SHOP BECAUSE ENGINE WAS SHUTTING DOWN; FINAL DIAGNOSIS WAS THE OIL FILTER HAD COLLAPSED FROM MY RECENT OIL CHANGE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA TUNDRA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING AT AN INTERSECTION WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, IT ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PLACED THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND THEN IN PARK. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000.

MULTIPLE FAILED ELECTRIC DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS. TOOK IN UNDER WARRANTY REFUSED TO REPLACE BUT SAID THEY "CLEANED IT" RIGHT AFTER WARRANTY WAS OVER, IT FAILED AGAIN. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE IS FAILING. THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA. EVEN THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THEY KNEW IT WAS AN ISSUE BUT ARE DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT.

JANUARY, 2018, DRIVERS SEAT BELT SETS OFF ALARM WHEN DRIVING. PASSENGERS SIDE SEAT BELT WINT CONNECT AT ALL. THIS STARTED SUNDAY, 1/13/19.

ON 2 SEPERATE OCCASSIONS 02/25/2016, MICE ATE MY WIRES IN MY TRUCK. THE FIRST TIME I DROVE HOME FROM WORK, AND COULD NOT SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. THERE WAS ONLY 17,506 MILES, I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY HAD ME DRIVE MY TRUCK THERE. THERE WAS A MOUSE NEST INSIDE THE FUSE BOX AND THEY HAD CHEWED THRU MY WIRES. THE 2ND TIME 09/12/2018 I WAS DRIVING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND THE TRUCK JUST STALLED AND I WAS UNABLE TO START IT AGAIN. (30,892 MILES)

HORN STOPPED WORKING. REALIZED IT WILL WORK ONLY WHEN STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. FUSE ARE GOOD. DANGEROUS NOT HAVING HORN OPERABLE. TWO CLOSE CALL ACCIDENTS WHERE I COULD NOT WARN OTHER DRIVER.

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY (NOT USING CRUISE CONTROL) WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE THROTTLE CONTROL CHANGED. THE TRUCK WOULD RANDOMLY THROTTLE WITHOUT PUSHING ON THE PEDAL. ADDITIONALLY, IF I PUT THE PEDAL DOWN THE TRUCK COULDN'T GET BEYOND 60MPH GOING UP A HILL. HOWEVER, GOING DOWN HILLS THE TRUCK WAS THROTTLING ON ITS OWN AS IF IT WERE TRYING TO ATTAIN A SPEED OF 70MPH EVEN THOUGH THE CRUISE CONTROL WASN'T ON OR EVEN FUNCTIONING (AT THIS POINT I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY). IF I BRAKED THE THROTTLING WOULD STOP; HOWEVER, WHEN RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL THE TRUCK WOULD CONTINUE TO THROTTLE. WHEN I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY THE TRUCK ONCE AGAIN WAS RANDOMLY THROTTLING. I DISENGAGED THE BATTERY THINKING THAT POSSIBLY REBOOTING THE TRUCKS COMPUTER WOULD HELP. I STARTED THE TRUCK IN PARK AND IMMEDIATELY THE RPMS INCREASED AS IF SOMEONE HAD THERE FOOT FULLY DECOMPRESSING THE PEDAL. I KNOW TOYOTA HAD RECALLS ON THEIR VEHICLES BUT APPARANTLY NOT ON THE 2014 TUNDRA MODEL. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE TRUCK ISSUE THAT LUCKILY OCCURRED IN A RURAL SETTING. I LET THE TRUCK SIT FOR TWO DAYS AND DROVE THE TRUCK AROUND THE 4 MILE BLOCK. INITIALLY THE TRUCK DROVE NORMAL FOR THE FIRST TWO MILES. BY MILE 3 IT WAS UNCONTROLLABLY THROTTLING. THE THROTTLING DID NOT STOP THIS TIME EVEN WHEN HOLDING DOWN THE BRAKES BUT LUCKILY THE BRAKES ARE AT LEAST GOOD ENOUGH TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN.
