STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
An oil leak may cause a sudden loss of power steering assist, increasing the risk of a crash.
8 safety recall campaigns, 153 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
An oil leak may cause a sudden loss of power steering assist, increasing the risk of a crash.
An overheated electrical connector can increase the risk of a fire.
If the turn signals or hazard lamps do not flash brightly enough, other drivers may fail to see that the turn signal or hazard lamp functions have been activated, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the fuel pump fails, the engine can stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.
Since the incorrect label is not within 1% of the additional weight, the vehicles are not compliant with the FMVSS.
If the air bags do not deploy as intended, it can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Two 2018 TOYOTA TUNDRAs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
