Air injection pump and valve has a history of failure in toyota tundras.. Their was a recall up until 2011 on tundras. I have owned this vehicle for 9 months. I took my vehicle to price leblanc toyota in baton rouge louisiana , and to replace these parts and labor is gonna be $2600 dollars. These parts are defective as the dealers keep them in stock because of so many failures and consumers are having to pay this huge charge. I have spoke with toyota corporation and they refuse to replace. With the failure of this part when u are driving the vehicle stalls upon acceleration. This is dangerous when u are pulling out or merging in traffic..as of now I cannot afford 2600 dollars in repairs. Thank you

When the engine starts it has a very noticeable knocking noise on the passenger side that never goes away. You put it in gear and you can really hear the engine knocking, and the knocking speeds up as you accelerate. Even after the engine warms up completely you can still hear it knocking(stationary, or in motion) . Also my gas mileage is horrible! I average about 12.3mpg every tank. The best mpg I have ever seen is 13.4 mpg average which is ridiculous even for a full size truck. I always loved toyota vehicles and ever since I was young I always wanted a toyota truck because I thought they were the toughest out there, but after owning this 2013 toyota tundra I'm disgusted.

Incredibly poor mileage due to defective flex fuel engine. I have a brand new 2013 toyota tundra crewmax 4x4 flex fuel that is epa rate for 13/17. I have been consistently averaging 7.4 mpg city under very light throttle. Following a toyota corporate esb I have already had the dealer reflash the ecu in an attempt to resolve this issue. The poor mileage remains.
