| Description of the problem | While pulling our travel trailer with our 2010 toyota sequoia limited 5. 7, upon stopping to fuel up the bumper around the exhaust pipe had melted and was smoking. We noticed in the interior a foul smell, like a plastic burning but couldn't figure it out. We stopped to fuel up and i checked under the hood and then discovered where the problem was. The tow vehicle was well within limits according to the manufacturer. |
