“Saturday afternoon 30 sept 2006 at about 3:00 pm, I just had my 2006 Toyota Tundra limited washed at a facility in conroe, tx. I departed, there drove about a half a mile at a speed of 15-20 MPH and had a blowout on the right rear tire of my vehicle. While having this tire changed by aaa I was robbed by two black thugs who took advantage of the disabled situation. It was witnessed by the tire changer and it was so bold that we were unable to get the tag number or total description of the vehicle except make, color, and general description. …”
NHTSA complaint #10169679, filed 2006-10, 17,215 miles“Air pressure in one tire constantly deflates. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that due to the porosity chrome of the wheels, air leaks out from the wheel causing the tire to deflate.”
NHTSA complaint #10668089, filed 2014-12, 75,000 miles“Inflated the tires to ensure proper PSI's prior to operation. Tire warning light shuts on and off. Tire warning lights will remain on when vehicle is started, idling, and in operation. This is still an ongoing problem that has not been fully resolved. The tire sensors could be a contributing factor which is not being reported as well. Went to the local dealership and was told that they will not fix unless the recall is under Toyota's website and not the NHTSA. This is a potential safety issue that could result in an accident, injury, or death.”
