I would like your help in assessing the possible danger from an active excessive oil leak from the cam tower on the 2013 Tundra. This relatively new truck leaked oil all over the engine without my knowledge until I brought it in for service. I was told this could have lead to an auto fire and since I am a disabled senior this is terrifying. A brief review of the internet literature shows that this leaking cam tower seal is a common problem and can happen repetitively because of a manufacture defect in the cam tower cover and seals. My question to you is this a common problem and is there really a danger of fire? in short should I think about buying a new truck and is there any investigation taking place at this time. Thank you for your help and assistance at this time.
The contact owns a 2013 Toyota Tundra. While driving between 3 and 7 mph with the brake pedal depressed, the engine would rev and the rpms would erroneously increase. The vehicle was taken to two separate dealers who were unable to duplicate the failure. The failure mileage was 2,000.
