I BROUGHT IT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER AND THEY HAD NO FIX EXCEPT TO REMOVE ONE OR THE OTHER ALTHOUGH THE STANDARD CLIP DOES NOT WORK WELL WITH THEIR MUDDER MATS. I WAS ENTERING THE HIGHWAY FROM THE RAMP AND PRESSED DOWN TO ACCELERATE TO MOVE INTO TRAFFIC AND THE TRUCK ACCELERATED AS HARD AND FAST AS IT COULD. I FOUND MYSELF HAVING TO WEAVE THROUGH TRAFFIC LIKE I WAS IN A NASCAR RACE. WHEN I FINALLY FOUND A CLEAR PATH TO THE SHOULDER I SWERVED ONTO IT AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF. IT WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN AND I COULD NOT SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. I HAD TO BE GOING ABOUT 60 AT THE TOP OF THE ONRAMP AND WELL OVER 100, PROBABLY FASTER, WHEN I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO SHUT IT OFF. I GOT OUT OF THE TRUCK TO TAKE A BREAK AND CALM DOWN AND UPON RETURNING TO THE TRUCK I NOTICED THAT THE "MUDDER MATS" I BOUGHT FROM A TOYOTA SITE SLIPPED FORWARD ENOUGH TO WEDGE ITSELF UNDER THE GAS PEDAL. I STAY AWARE OF THE POSITION OF THE MAT MORE FREQUENTLY NOW AND KEEP IT SLID BACK BUT THERE IS NO RESTRAINT FOR IT THAT WILL GO THRU BOTH THE FLOOR LINER THAT PROTECTS MORE OF THE FLOOR AREA AND THE MUDDER MAT ON TOP OF IT. I BOUGHT BOTH AT THE TUNDRA PARTS SITE. I HOPE THAT THERE WILL BE SOME WARNING FOR OTHERS MADE BIG AND DRAMATIC ENOUGH TO BRING ATTENTION TO THIS PROBLEM TO AVOID HAVING THIS HAPPEN TO ANOTHER. I WAS VERY LUCKY TO HAVE SURVIVED THIS. *TR

MY TRUCK ACCELERATED TO FULL THROTTLE. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ON. THE ACCELERATOR WAS NOT STUCK TO THE FLOOR MAT. THE TRUCK ACCELERATED AT A RAPID PACE AND NEARLY RAN INTO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME ON THE ROADWAY. I ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE VEHICLE BY TAPPING ON THE BRAKES, THEN THE ACCELERATOR AND TURNING THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON OFF EVEN THOUGH THE CRUISE WAS ALREADY OFF. NOTHING RESPONDED AND THE TRUCK CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE TO A DANGEROUS SPEED. THE ACCELERATOR WAS "FLOORED" AND WOULD NOT MOVE. I HAD TO MANEUVER AROUND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AND SEVERAL THAT PASSED GOING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION QUICKLY. THE TRUCK WAS GAINING SPEED AT AN INCREDIBLY RAPID PACE. I CONTINUED TO BRAKE THE TRUCK IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND PREVENT LOOSING CONTROL. I THEN ATTEMPTED TO DOWN-SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION. THIS CAUSED THE ENGINE TO REV UNCONTROLLABLY. THE SAME HAPPENED WHEN SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL IN AN ATTEMPT TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF WITH THE KEY. THE RPM'S WERE REVVING SO HIGH THAT I FEARED THE ENGINE WOULD BLOW UP. I PULLED MY TRUCK INTO A BOAT PARKING AREA ON THE ROADSIDE AND SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES WHILE PUTTING THE TRUCK INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNING THE ENGINE KEY TO OFF. THE ENGINE, BRAKES AND TRANSMISSION WERE ALL SMOKING FROM THE STRESS AND HIGH RPM'S. I HAD EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR UNCONTROLLABLE ACCELERATION ABOUT SIX MONTHS PRIOR (JAN. 2008) TO THIS ONE BUT WAS ABLE TO RECOVER QUICKLY BY HITTING THE BRAKES AND PRESUMED THAT IT WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL. TOYOTA REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SENSOR ASSY BUT WOULD NOT SAY WHETHER THIS WAS THE CAUSE OF THE UNCONTROLLABLE ACCELERATION. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS POSSIBLY CAUSED BY THE AFTERMARKET FLOOR MATS THAT I PURCHASED AT THE DEALERSHIP. UNFORTUNATELY, THE PEDAL DROPPED FROM UNDER MY FOOT WITHOUT MY INTERVENTION. TOYOTA HAS NOT RESPONDED TO MY CALLS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON ANY CEMENT FREEWAY (ESPECIALLY THOSE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (101 VENTURA)), I EXPERIENCED A "BED BOUNCE" THAT WAS SO SEVERE, I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

I CONTACTED TOYOTA REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND THEY CONFIRMED IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TUNDRA TRUCKS BUT ARE NOT WORKING ON ANY FIXES. THIS ANSWER IS UNACCEPTABLE. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ON "CEMENT" FREEWAYS BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF CONTROL. TOYOTA IS UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.... I HAVE NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT WITH YOU. *TR

I BOUGHT IT FOR MY SERVICE BUSINESS &PLEASURE. TOY IS THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN! THE FIRST THING PEOPLE SAY IS,WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH THE ROADS? KIDS HATE IT. MY DOG HATES THE TRUCK! SHE CAN'T GET COMFORTABLE WITH THE BED BOUNCE. BY THE END OF THE DAY I AM AT DRIVER FATIGUE STAGE! YOU CAN DRIVE 60-70 BUT NOT FOR LONG! THIS TRUCK FEELS EVERY LITTLE BUMP NOOK AND CRANNY ON ALL ROADS. I TRIED GOING UP TO 80-90 MILES AN HOUR TO REMOVE THE BOUNCE, IT'S STILL THERE. GOING SLOWER LIKE 50 MPH OR LESS DOESN'T DO MUCH. I'D RATHER DRIVE A HORSE AND BUGGY WITH SOLID WOOD WHEELS. I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW DISAPPOINTING IT IS TO DRIVE MY TRUCK. NOBODY LIKES BEING IN THIS TRUCK. I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER OF TOYOTA WHO DROVE ONE. HIS WIFE MADE HIM RETURN HIS TRUCK BECAUSE OF IT'S TERRIBLE RIDE AND HE AGREED. TOOK MY TRUCK TO GMC DEALER TO TRADE IT, THEY HAVE GOTTEN WIND OF IT'S PROBLEM AND ARE NOT WILLING TO TRADE IT IN. GOOD LUCK IS ALL THEY SAY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS I'M HAVING A BED BOUNCE SENSATION, IT'S NOT THE FRAME, IT'S NOT THE SUSPENSION, PUT 10 BAGS OF CEMENT IN THE BACK, TOW A LOAD, THIS WILL GIVE YOU A BETTER RIDE! I CAN'T BELIEVE I SPEND OVER 40,000! I TOOK IT TO A SPECIALIST AND WAS TOLD IT'S THE FRAME! NOT MUCH CAN BE DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEMS TOYOTA IS HAVING. ALL I KNOW IS I HAVE A TRUCK I DON'T WANT AND CAN'T RECOUP MY LOSSES. HOW UNSAFE IS THIS PROBLEM? WHY IS THE PUBLIC THE GUINEA PIG THIS DAY IN AGE WHEN WE ARE SO ADVANCED? I'LL BET THEY NEVER TEST DROVE THE TRUCK OTHER THAN A TEST TRACK OR THEY DID VIRTUAL TESTING ONLY. IF I CAME UP WITH SOMETHING NEW AND SOLD IT TO MY CUSTOMERS IN THE SAME FASHION LIKE TOYOTA DID TO ME. THEN GAVE THEM A RUN AROUND ABOUT WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON. I WOULD BE IN COURT SUED AND OUT OF BUSINESS TOYOTA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING FAST TIRED OF THEM AVOIDING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

AS I STARTED THE TRUCK THE 4-WHEEL LO LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASH WITH AN INDICATOR BEEP. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS IS THAT THE TRUCK WAS IN 2-WHEEL DRIVE AND NEVER ENGAGED IN ANY 4-WHEEL OPERATION. AT THE POINT OF THIS I TRIED TO PUT THE TRUCK IN REVERSE AND IT WAS NOT THERE IT WAS NEUTRAL, SO THEN I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE AND THAT WAS NEUTRAL ALSO, I REPEATED THIS 4 OR 5 TIMES IN DISBELIEF. AT THAT POINT I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND EXITED THE VEHICLE NOT REALIZING THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE NO PARK. I THEN WALKED ALONG SIDE THE TRUCK AND SO IT ROLL DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AND HIT THE GARAGE. THE TRUCK ONLY ROLLED ABOUT 20 FEET APPROX, BUT CAUSED ABOUT $5,000.00 IN DAMAGE BETWEEN THE 2. I PRECEDED TO THEN CALL HOFFMAN TOYOTA AND EXPLAIN. THE DEALER WAS ACCOMMODATING AT FIRST OFFERING A LOANER VEHICLE WHILE THEY RAN TESTS. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT IN ALL HIS TIME IN THE BUSINESS HE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING, SAYING ONLY OPERATOR ERROR COULD CAUSE THIS. MY FRUSTRATION LEVEL WAS RISING BUT REMAINED CALM. ALONG THE WAY I WAS TALKING TO TOYOTA CORP ABOUT MY PROBLEM AND HAD A CASE MANAGER APPOINTED TO ME. TOYOTA CORP HAD SENT A FIELD TECH TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER REVIEW. HIS TEST ALSO SHOWED NO VEHICLE ERROR FOUND AND THAT NO RELATED CASES OF TRANSMISSIONS COMING OUT OF PARK. HE ALSO INDICATED THAT THIS WOULD ONLY BE POSSIBLE FROM OPERATOR ERROR. SO I NOW HAD TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY HOUSE GARAGE AND TRUCK REPAIR. AFTER PICKING UP THE VEHICLE I HAD A FRIEND ASK ME IF I LOOKED INTO THE NTSB.GOV WEBSITE, AND I SAID NO, WE THEN PROCEEDED TO THE SITE AND IT TOOK APPROX. 10 SECONDS TO SEE A RELATED OCCURRENCE WITH A 2007 TUNDRA WITH 16,000 MILES AND HAPPENED TWICE TO THE INDIVIDUAL. I FEEL VERY UNCOMFORTABLE PARKING THIS TRUCK THINKING THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN, IT IS CLEAR THAT THERE IS SOME TYPE OF ELECTRONIC MALFUNCTION AND WHAT CAUSES THIS TO HAPPEN AT WILL IS UNCLEAR. *TR

MY TAILGATE IS WEAK AND SMALL CRACKING AT SEAMS AT SIDE WHERE NOT WELDED, AND THIS IS WITH MY 215 LB. FRAME STEPPING ON IT TO GET IN BED. I WANTED TO PURCHASE BED EXTENDER TO CARRY LONGER OBJECTS AS I HAVE DONE IN MY TRADED IN F 150 BUT TAILGATE CANNOT HANDLE MY WEIGHT MUCH LESS OBJECT. I KNOW OTHERS THAT LOAD ATV'S AND MOTORCYCLES WITH COMPLETE SEAM FAILURE, SO I DON'T DARE PUT MORE WEIGHT ON GATE. GATE CAN COME OFF EASY AS I HAVE NOTED IN FRIENDS TUNDRA WHILE HAULING WITH TAILGATE DOWN. TOYOTA DEALER BLAMED HIM FOR DOING SOMETHING WE HAVE BEEN DOING WITH OUR WORK TRUCKS FOR OVER 10 YEARS. THE GATE PANEL TO ACCESS INTERNAL GATE COMPONENTS IS SO THIN THAT JUST BY PRESSING WITH HAND, I CAN BEND IT. YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT A TAILGATE NEEDS TO BE MORE DURABLE IN ITS LATCHING DESIGN, WHICH MY CREWMAX IS NOT, AND DEFINITELY NOT COME APART AT SEAMS BY SOMEONE SITTING ON IT OR BEND AND FAIL. THERE IS A STANDARD IN WHICH I AS WELL AS OTHERS ARE USED TO IN TAILGATE STRENGTH AS I HAD ON 1999 F 150 WITHOUT ANY ISSUES AND WITH THREE GROWN MEN SITTING ON GATE WITH COMBINED WEIGHT OF OVER 650 LBS GATE WON'T BEND AND FRAME DIDN'T COME APART AT SEAMS. I HAVE A MOTORCYCLE THAT I NOW CANNOT USE EXTENDER TO HAUL DUE TO THIS POOR DESIGN. I AM A FIRST TIME TOYOTA OWNER AND I LIKE MY TRUCK OVERALL, BUT IT IS A TRUCK AND I EXPECTED TO USE IT AS SUCH. I LIKE MY TUNDRA VERY MUCH, HOWEVER, I BELIEVE ANY REASONABLE PERSON WOULD CONCLUDE THAT THE TAILGATE IS OF POOR DESIGN, AND QUESTIONABLE STRENGTH FOR ?THE TRUCK THAT IS CHANGING IT ALL?. WE WILL SEE WHAT TOYOTA WILL DO OR NOT DO ABOUT THIS. I HAVE FIXED LATCH AT DEALER TEMPORARY BUT I KNOW THERE IS TSB IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. TAILGATE QUALITY IN STRENGTH AS WELL AS SOME BED BOUNCE ISSUES IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT MATTER! VOICING MY CONCERN BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR
