2019 Toyota Tundra

Pre collison warning system has turned itself off in the rain and states visit dealer for service. Never logs data and on when you get to dealer. Same system has also flash "Brake" on the highway at 65 mph when a dry sunny day and no cars around. I am worried it may actually brake by accident causing loss of control. Went to dealer on both occasions and because it doesn't log the data there was nothing they could do. Did my own research and there was a technical service bulletin for certain VINS (not mine) to "repair" this module behind the grill. It was done to my truck but not by my dealership before I took ownership. It should not have been done and Route 44 toyota just did nothing. I asked for a replacement and they wouldn't because there wasn't any codes listed to warrant it because the TSB wasn't for my truck even though someone did it. On their TSB it recommends replacement for my current issues but they wouldn't do it.

My son was driving to Mineral Wells to get something to eat on Wednesday 11/17/21 at 8:00 at night on FM 52 South. All of a sudden the steering wheel falls in his lap. He picked it up and shoved it onto the column and was able to steer the truck onto the side of the road without hitting anything. He looked underneath the steering wheel assembly and 2 of the 4 ubolts where missing. Where did they go - if they were ever there in the first place. The steering wheel has had some vibration and we have had the truck front end aligned and the wheels balanced. I had it in not long ago for an inspection/oil change/tire rotation. After I left the dealership the wheel felt a little loose and there was some vibration but I thought it was the road and it did stop vibrating. I also drive a Prius and I thought maybe I'm just not used to the way the truck feels. I told my son when I got home that it felt loose and he said he would keep an eye on it. Then Wednesday night the steering wheel falls off and the whole column falls out. What is this? I also drive the truck and I do not think I would have had #1 - the strength to pick the wheel up and force it back onto the column or #2 - the sense to even do that. I would have had an accident. The Shottenkirk dealership does not want to deal with the problem even though I have an extended warranty so today Freeman Toyota calls me and they are picking up the truck and will be doing the repair work. Bottom line - my son could have been killed or injured, I drove the truck Monday in Ft. Worth going 70+mph and I could have been killed or injured. How does a steering wheel/steering column loose ubolts and falls off/collapses?

3 times in the last few mos the BRAKE! warning came on. Nothing was causing this warning to engage. This happened again today. Another issue is when the Valdosta Toyota (GA) dealer attempted to fix the fuel pump recall on 22 JUL 2020 it was assembled incorrectly. I called the dealership and told them to come and get my Tundra because gas was dripping onto my driveway. They sent a tow truck and it was supposedly fixed and they brought it back to me in about 2 hrs. It really does run the way it did before they “re-fixed” it. Very often now when it is driving I feel something like a failing fuel pump. It fades away but it is not comfortable taking it long distances. It feels like there is a clog in the fuel system or something, although there is not. I have 33,400 miles on it today and I can’t help but wonder if Valdosta Toyota didn’t just exchange the original fuel pump with a different used one?

Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) malfunctions sporadically while driving. Warning lights illuminate and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) disengages when activated while driving. The Pre-Collision System (PCS) is turned off and flashes with the following error messages. - Pre-Collision System Malfunction - Visit Your Dealer - Auto Headlight System Malfunction - Visit Your Dealer - LDA Malfunction - Visit Your Dealer This has happened twice, first right after purchasing the vehicle brand new in 2019 and most recently last week on 5/22/2021. I took the vehicle into the dealer on 5/25/2021 and they seemed aware of this issue, but stated they could not reproduce it and there were no error codes logged. I showed them the video of this happening (link below) while driving through Nevada. I was told the errors will not disable the vehicle or put it into limp mode, but my concern is when this happens while using DRCC, which almost made me drive into the back of a tractor trailer on Interstate 80. The speed limit on I-80 in Nevada is 80 MPH. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WrxgM8SJeB02eO4a6E9tbyCeAr6gRRHs/view?usp=sharing

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON THE FREEWAY WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 75 MPH. WHILE DRIVING MY PASSENGER SAID I PASSED OUT, FLOORED THE GAS PEDAL AND JERKED THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT. I THEN DROVE THROUGH THE MEDIAN AND INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC REACHING 90 PLUS MPH, MISSING TWO CARS, AND JUMPING A 4 FOOT BARBED WIRE FENCE WITHOUT TOUCHING THE FENCE. I CONTINUED INTO THE DESERT UNTIL MY PASSENGER WAS ABLE TO PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK HITTING A FEW TREES AND BUSHES ALONG THE WAY. I THEN WOKE UP WHEN PARAMEDICS AND FIRST RESPONDERS WERE ALREADY THERE. ME AND THE PASSENGER WERE BOTH WEARING OUR SEATBELTS AND MY PASSENGER DID NOT AQUIRE ANY INJURIES. I HAD A SIEZURE TO CAUSE THE ACCIDENT AND HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ONES SINCE THEN A MONTH AGO. THE FRONT OF MY TRUCK WAS MANGLED AND THE FRAME WAS BENT IN TWO PLACES. THE ISSUE IS I SUFFERED 4 FRACTURES IN MY SPINE TOP OF THE LUMBAR AND BOTTOM 3 OF MY THORASIC. I AM CURIOUS AFTER TALKING TO THE MECHANIC WHO LOOKED OVER MY TRUCK AS TO WHY MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING THE ACCIDENT. IN SUMMARY I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT THAT TOTALED MY TRUCK, AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND I SUFFERED MULTIPLE SPINAL FRACTURES.
