SERVICE BRAKES
12/26/2012	1000	1
	Backing out of my driveway, with the engine running, i tried to stop the vehicle but the brake pedal was spongy and pushed all the way to the floor without stopping the truck. i had to continue to pump the brakes and attempt to stop the truck until it finally came to a rest in the street. it was as if there was no power assist to the brakes. the brake system thought the engine was off, despite the engine having warmed up for about five minutes. *tr

SUSPENSION
03/08/2013	2700
	When driving on concrete interstate highways at speeds over 65 mph there is excessive bed bounce on the pickup creating extreme vibration in the cabin and affecting the handling of the pickup. i complained to the toyota dealer and was told that this is normal for all pickups but i could correct it by loading weight in the box. it appears to be a design flaw that was supposed to be fixed on tech bulletin the 2007-2010 tundras, but the bed bounce problem on the 2013 tundra continues. i have owned 4 full sized 4 wheel drive pickups including a 2003 tundra and i have never experienced such a rough ride.
