| I purchased on 2010 tundra double cab 4x4 with a 5.7 v-8 engine on august 1, 2010. on several occasions my 2010 tundra has shut down while being driven. the first serious safety problem occurred on 08/26/2010 (1,097 miles) while being driven about 10-15 mph. the check engine light came on and the 4x4 lo and rsca lights were flashing while power was lost/reduced to engine/tranmission. on 8/27/2010, the selling dealer checked the connections after receiving codes c1201 and p060a and claimed the vehicle was fixed. the second time was on 09/26/2010 (2,312 miles) i was driving 55-60 mph when the lights came on as before and i lost/reduced power to the engine/transmission almost causing an accident. this time the a local dealer verified that code p060a returned and claimed the cause was a bad ecm processor. they replaced the ecm processor claiming the vehicle was fixed. the third time was on october 31, 2010, (2,480 miles) the vehicle was parked and being warmed up when the check engine light came on. i drove the vehicle then to see if it had the same problem with power loss to the engine. again there was reduced power to the engine/transmission. notified toyota who had the vehicle towed in and they recovered code p1614. this time the dealer claimed the problem was the r&r air assembly stating this was the cause of the problem, replaced it and claimed they had fixed the problem. toyota corporation and my local dealership both have been informed of this serious safety problem with the engine shutting down while driving. on 11/9/2010, the arbitration the board related that there have not been an unreasonable number of repairs for the same nonconformity. therefore, they denied my claim for a new vehicle. an engine shutting down/reduced power to the engine causing loss of control over the vehicle to me is a very serious safety problem. | |||

| Another toyota recall??? my new 2010 toyota tundra with 2,500 miles had a catastrophic engine failure while driving on the freeway (the engine blew out on the truck). i was driving on the freeway when i heard a loud bang. i pulled over and engine oil was dumping out of the engine onto the ground. i had the truck towed to stevinson west toyota - they took the engine apart and found multiple holes in the engine block. they are still not telling me the source of this engine failure. toyota is telling me this is a one time occurrence, but i have been finding multiple problems with other tundra's (2007-2010), including a usa today article from 2007, toyota fixing engine failures in new tundra trucks. and, while our truck has been in the shop, we spoke with another tundra owner (2009; in the same shop) who had a similar issue. exact issues from some other tundra's online (http://www.tundrasolutions.com/forums/tundra/186091-engine-blew-4k-miles/)!!! | |||

| I have a 2010 toyota tundra, since the purchase note that speeds up when i come to a stop, or just when i'm with the brake pedal position, and to begin to correct single speeds, and he arranged a recall of the accelerator pedal, but even so i still have the problem a few weeks ago, almost hit with my truck, an immigration officer, when inspecting the truck, and my passport ... that scared me a lot | |||

| I have made a report on this before but it occurrred again today 4/8/2010. i have a toyota tundra 2010 which accelerates on its own when i start it, up to 4500-5000 rpm's . it will rev up 3-4 times and then bog down and die, i then start it up again and it is like nothing ever happened. it has never occurred while the vehicle is moving always in park when i first start it up. it has been in the shop 2 times each time for a week and they say that because they can not dupicate the problem there is no way for them to fix the problem if there is one. am i a liar like everyone who owns a toyota? | |||

| I have a 2008 tundra and had my gas pedal fixed. my gas pedal is now extremely sensitive and i find difficult to accelerate safely. i have issues when accelerating from a stop, as i hit any sort of bump or hole i find myself reving the engine as my pedal is too sensitive and how i describe as loose. this is very annoying and find it to be an unacceptable fix!!! | |||

| 6-8 weeks after i bought my truck i started having acceleration problems with my truck a 2010 tundra. it has never accelerated while moving it has done it in park every time when i get in and start the truck. it accelerates to 4-5000 rpm's and bogs down it does 3-4 times then it bogs down and dies. i have taken my truck in 3 times and they ( toyota of lewisville) have kept it twice and could never duplicate the problem so they claim that they could not find the problem, and that there was no trouble codes to follow up on. this incident has occurred about 8 or 9 times and i am really worried that it will someday happen while i am driving. i don't ever know when it is going to happen it just happens when i get in and start the truck whether it is hot or cold. the dealership has kept my truck twice for a week each time and has done nothing to correct the failure because they say that they can not find the problem. what can i do about this matter, i have a truck that my wife will not ride in and that it is worth nothing in a trade in. i drive it with fear of it taking off on me someday. | |||
