When driving on a bumpy section of interstate 40 (between ft smith and little rock,ar), on two occasions, the electric door locks unlocked automatically and each time i would hit a bump, the dome light would flicker (to the bumps in the road) as if the doors were ajar. both times, this was corrected (dome light stopped flickering) when i pulled over and reclosed all the doors on the 4 door truck. *ak

We bought a 2000 toyota tundra, 4x4, extra cab. at 800 klms we noticed there was no paint left on the front bottom corners of the box. at 5800 klms there is no paint left on the whole undercarage of the truck, large chunks of metal gone from the rockerpanels, rock chips all over the vehicle including the roof. this truck has factory tires, mudflaps, and fender flares and still throws rocks so extensively to the rear, centre and front of the vehicle you actually drive right into them therefore damageing the windshield as well. it is dangerous for any mortorist behind it. we are currently heading into a dispute with toyota canada via canvap as toyota canada's position on this matter is that nothing is covered under warrenty as it is "owner abuse" due to driving on abnormal road conditions!! we drive 2 klms a day on a government maintained gravel road, and 60 klms a day on a major highway. we have seen two other tundra's with the same problem so far and are looking for any other tundra owners who have this problem. our truck looks like it has been sandblasted. we have reports from independent body specialist who can't believe what this truck is doing. *ak
