2012 Toyota Tundra Fuel system Problems

“While driving, multiple dashboard lights came on and my truck went into limp mode, meaning I lost almost all power while driving in heavy traffic. Turns out this is an issue with the air injection pump, which is a known problem in Toyota tundras. I believe this is a safety issue that Toyota needs to address.”

“After starting the engine, the engine raised past red line RPM for several seconds. After slowing, I started to back out drive when engine raised again into red line RPM. Before I got it pulled back into drive, it raised 3 more times. Each time I managed to get to neutral.”

“My 2012 Tundra has just under 70,000 miles on it and the trac light and engine light came on yesterday. Had it looked at and the mechanic says the problem is with the secondary air pump and it is a known problem. Called the dealer and they knew of the problem and told me there is a csp that covers certain 2012 Tundra's. Unfortunately the csp only covers the 5.7 l. Engines and not my 4.6l model. My mechanic says that everything is the exact same set up as far as the secondary air pump, it's just a different size engine. …”

“Monday, january 15th I drove at 65 MPH to work at and home on the freeway with no problems. Tuesday and wednesday the truck was stationary due to cold weather conditions in houston, texas. Thursday morning the 18th, I drove at 65 MPH to work via freeway with no problems. After lunch I drove at 45 MPH back to work on a street and noticed the check engine and traction light came on and simultaneously the truck then starting driving extremely sluggish and and far below the speed limit obstructing the flow of traffic. …”

“My 2012 Tundra had a trac off and engine light come on. This is the same problem for numerous Toyota Tundra in regards to failure of the secondary air valves and pumps. I was told my VIN number was not on the 10 year , 150,000 mile warranty for this same problem. I urge you to force Toyota to add my VIN number to the extended warranty. My vehicle cannot go over 60 and be safe. It was raining and rain got into the pump system. Toyota has replaced thousands of these badly designed system and more needs to be done. It cost over $2,000 to replace badly designed system.”
