Description of the problem	Check engine light and trac control lights came on around 72,000 miles. Truck started to be sluggish and lose power. The truck is in a constant 'limp' mode and fails to properly accelerate. It is definitely a safety issue as it causes unsafe conditions when trying to accelerate into a traffic lane. Took it to dealer and it is an issue with the secondary air injection valves and pumps. Dealer quoted me $2184. 25 to fix. Not currently covered under warranty. Toyota has addressed this issue with other years and models but for some reason has excluded the 2012 tundra. I have contacted toyota on multiple occasions and they refer me to nhtsa to file a complaint. Same issues reported for the 2012 toyota tundra reference nhtsa id numbers: 11129958 11129497 11128204 11109923 11104774 11076034 11075528 11065298 11002406 10994136 10926200 10567001 10489030 how many complaints have to be filed before toyota corrects the issue?

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.
