I am taking in my 2012 TE Monday to the dealership BUT I have 36, 512 miles!!!! Crap. Here's what's happening to check and see if others have had anything similar or top get thoughts. First of all, I have a 2" Toytech spring lift, nothing extreme and 285's (Firestone Destination A/T with 50% tread). Noticed a few months ago that when accelerating in rain or loose surface turning right that the traction control seems to kick in a lot. Same when driving going somewhat fast around a sharp curve, more turning right than left. Just thought maybe tires not getting traction / getting old (2 years old). By the way, I has full alignment when going from 275's to 285's. Had 275's (same tire, different size) from when bought new then switched to 285's 2-3 months ago (about when this started). Tonight on a very rainy, slick road, I switched to 4 high to see if it helped after accelerating straight line and traction control coming on (can hear passenger side read wheel slipping it seems every time). When in 4high, it pulled HARD to the left, when accelerating, would have more torque steer than I have ever felt, almost like 0% to rear and 100% to driver side front. I switched back to 2H... the 4x4 light on the dash (green diagram on drivetrain showing in 4WD) did not even flash, stayed solid and it did not shift out. Came to stop and made sure fully shifted, nothing. Put in reverse then N, nothing. Then drove 1-2 miles and came to stop sign. After accelerating through intersection, had a noticeable thunk and it shifted back to 2WD and the light went off. Feel like it is only pushing with passenger rear and pulling with driver front. Any ideas???
