2020 Toyota Tundra: acceleration and engine complaints lead the list

Owners filed 44 complaints with NHTSA, and the volume is low and spread fairly evenly. The fuel/propulsion system tops the list at 14%, with the engine close behind at 11%: both centered on weak or hesitant acceleration. Steering and service brakes follow at 9% each. No fires, injuries, or deaths are reported; the only crash (1) is tied to the brakes, so that area is worth a closer look on a test drive.
