Truck stopped excellerating. Took to mechanic and was told it was in safe mode due to the air injection values had water in them. It will cost $2336.00 to fix it. This should be recalled.

The air injection pump is defective and allows condensation and or moisture which leads to totally failure. I have already spent 1100.00 dollars for one side now the otherside is failing..this failure caused the truck to lack any get up when pulling out into traffic. It wants to stall.

I was driving and out of nowhere my engine light comes on. I take it to auto zone to do a quick check and i was informed that it is my injection pumps that are bad. I did research and in the past toyota has had to recall for this exact problem on the exact vehicle but it was for a different year. I called toyota and they said my vehicle year does not fall into the recall but i'm sure that it is the exact thing.

When the engine starts it has a very noticeable knocking noise on the passenger side that never goes away. You put it in gear and you can really hear the engine knocking, and the knocking speeds up as you accelerate. Even after the engine warms up completely you can still hear it knocking(stationary, or in motion) . Also my gas mileage is horrible! I average about 12.3mpg every tank. The best mpg i have ever seen is…

Incredibly poor mileage due to defective flex fuel engine. I have a brand new 2013 toyota tundra crewmax 4x4 flex fuel that is epa rate for 13/17. I have been consistently averaging 7.4 mpg city under very light throttle. Following a toyota corporate esb i have already had the dealer reflash the ecu in an attempt to resolve this issue. The poor mileage remains. *tr
