I have multiple problems with the dash lights going on and off, have taken it to car repair when scanned and had replaced relays many times. I have read many stories of people having the same problem with toyota tundras and no one can figure it out. Toyota should have a recall for this because it is not just one or two people with this same exact problem, it is many toyota tundra owners going through the same problems that i' am experiencing.

There is significant rust on the frame of this 2008 Tundra. I am located in North Central WA State and they use compounds on the roads in the winter here similar to what is used in the northeast US. The rust is also on the steering mechanism and spare tire. I just had a flat tire and had to use the spare tire temporarily. This is a common problem reported on Tundra forums online and this truck should be covered under an ongoing repair mandate since the rust is damaging steering mechanism, brake lines, spare tire support system, etc. These are safety concerns.

Transmission slipped and vehicle lose of power. Dashboard all warning lights began to flash. Pulled to side of road. Turned off vehicle attempted to reset. Managed to get vehicle to nearby parking lot and out of traffic. Complete loss of power to drive train. Cause was power steering unit sensor per Toyota. Toyota covered part in attempt to prevent this complaint. From internet, "some 2007-2008 Toyota Tundra vehicles may experience power steering dtcs P0552 and/or P0553. The power steering sensor has since been changed to correct this condition. The old/previous power steering sensor is P/N 89448-34010. This has been replaced with sensor P/N 89448-34020. Using tis techstream, confirm the condition by checking for dtcs P0552 and/or P-553. Disconnect the pressure sensor connector and proceed with removing the power steering pressure switch, which is located at the power steering vane pump and is mounted to the high pressure feed line. Install the new power steering pressure sensor, tightening to 15.2 ft.-lbs. (20.6 nm). With the new sensor fully installed and connected, start the engine and check for leaks. Adjust power steering fluid level as needed."

Prior to the incident, the steering column became very loose. I had to keep repositioning it. I thought I had tighten the safety lock piece that holds the steering column in place. The day of the incident, as I was getting in my vehicle, the steering column completely came down. It would not lock in place. As I was on my way the steering column moved up and down, and in and out. I could not control the steering vehicle. The next day I took the vehicle to a Toyota dealer. I was told two pieces of the steering column broke off. I was given a quote from Toyota in the amount of $600 for the part and $645 for labor.

There is a steering problem on my 2008 Toyota Tundra SR5 double cab. When driving on a normally crowned( or sloped) road surface, the truck will pull to the right on the right lane, or to the left on the left lane. The local dealer has made multiple adjustments to the front end alignment, has rotated tires, even swapped tires from another truck. The pulling problem persists. Toyota district parts & service manager insists that my truck "is operating normally". I have taken the truck to 2 local independent alignment shops run by long-time experienced mechanics. They both felt that there was a problem with the rack-and-pinion steering unit. I have tried repeatedly to get Toyota to replace the rack-and pinion, they have refused.
