Brand new truck, have not even made a payment on it yet and it is re-setting the gas tank to full every time I start it. The fuel needle is not lowering as well. This is coupled with air system re-set every time I get in and turn it on (no prior settings are saved) as well as having a very difficult time getting it started. It won't start probably 80% of the time and just a very loud clicking noise as if it's trying. Then some of the time it chugs and chugs and finally starts reluctantly. Other times it starts like a charm.
Taken in to the dealer today, and they assumed battery (said they have had a rash of new Toyota's come in with new/bad batteries) but they tested it and it is not the battery. They are stumped and are working with Toyota to try and figure it out.
Not what a brand new owner wants to hear...I have had Toyota's all my life and their performance and quality have been amazing but we are not off to a good start on this one.
