2013 TOYOTA TUNDRA — Complaint #1968017
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL filed February 16, 2024
NHTSA complaint #1968017 (ODI reference 11572347) concerns a 2013 TOYOTA TUNDRA and was filed on February 16, 2024. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 15, 2023. The vehicle had 64,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Texas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as engine and engine cooling:exhaust system:emission control, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same TOYOTA TUNDRA cohort independently describe similar engine and engine cooling:exhaust system:emission control failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2013 TOYOTA TUNDRA shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
