Owner Complaints (3)
Your truck frequently stalls when you slow down from highway speed to turn onto a side road or after braking to a slow speed, then re-accelerate. This happens with your 5.7L V8 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission. The issue may be related to fuel delivery or engine idle control and could require diagnostic testing of the fuel system and engine sensors.

Your truck's air injection system failed while driving uphill, causing the vehicle to lose power and only operate at speeds below 35 mph on flat or downhill surfaces. Although Toyota offers an extended 10-year/150,000-mile warranty and your truck has 103,000 miles with 10 years and 1 month of age, Toyota denied the warranty claim because it slightly exceeded the time limit. The repair will likely involve replacing or rebuilding the air injection system components.
