 Description of the problemAir injection relay and pump failure. This condition eventually leads to "limp" mode causing traffic safety issues. This has been a manufacturer recall/extended warranty item on all tundra trucks, up to and including some 2012 models but not all of the 2012's. By the numbers of failures present, it's obvious that what ever design changes toyota did to say they fixed the issue and exclude some of the 2012's were insufficient. This recall/extended warranty should include all 2012 models. Toyota/dealers claim the pumps are part of emissions so they are not covered under the manufacturers warranties. Repair cost was quoted at $3800. Other filed complaints: nhtsa id number: 11075528 nhtsa id number: 11002406 nhtsa id number: 10994136

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
