This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Both low beam headlights went out simultaneously. Safety driving lights also did not work. High beam headlights did work. Troubleshooting revealed that both sylvania silverstar 9033/HB2 H4 light bulbs burned out simultaneously. The headlight bulbs are dangerous and should be recalled asap. Having both headlights burn out at the same time in inexcusable! it nearly caused me to crash at high speed. Had to drive home using my high beams and fog lights.
Taillight bulbs fall out of the socket. We returned the vehicle to the dealer a couple of times and they put the bulbs back in but didn't fix the problem that the sockets don't have enough spring tension to secure them in place. I've since blocked them in place with toothpicks to increase the tension of the sockets. Cheap fix but they should replace the sockets.
I own a 2001 Tundra. I just learned of 4 recalls: Nhsta #09E025000, 09V444000, 06E026000, and 06E065000. We received no notification from the companies required to do so. The truck is registered. We purchased the truck new and have been the only owners. We have not changed address since the purchase. I believe the failure to be notified was deliberate to avoid the cost of compliance with the recall. I have been unable to get any of the 4 companies involved to respond to phone messages.
