    Oooh look, another mod.....
    Without codes we'd all be guessing. It could be a myriad of problems.

    Check the codes and reset the CEL by disconnecting the battery cable, waiting several minutes and then reconnecting it. Sometimes you get a false positive. Pulling the battery cable will reset the CEL light and let you know if you got the false positive.

    2024 is still under warranty. Let the dealer deal with this.

    Could be one of 50 faults. Pull the codes with a scan tool. If it says small evap leak, tighten the gas cap. For other codes, go to the dealer to get fixed under warranty. Don't disconnect the battery or reset the code as that just makes the tech's job more difficult.

    Does the vehicle have any non-factory mods like immobilizer or tracker? Some dealers get these installed by the lowest bidding stereo shop and butcher the wiring.

    Drive to auto store tomorrow if you don’t have scanner and go from there. Could be as simple as a small gas cap leak, to the secondary air injection system.
    But in all honestly, since no codes we don’t have any roads to go down yet. Yes it’s under warranty, but if it’s something small, it can be a DIY. Something major, dealer warranty

    OK, thanks.

    I did pull the codes. P0102, P0416, P1613. I disconnected/reconnected positive battery cable, and the cleared the codes. I also removed and retighten the gas cap. P1613 comes back as Toyota specific.

    When the codes appeared, there was lack of power/acceleration. Cleared codes and power seems fine.

    Will see if they re-appear, stayed off for a 2 mile drive, shut off truck, turn on, return 2 miles. No codes yet.

    thanks,
    Bob

    If they do re-appear, drive it straight to the dealership and let them fix it...for free. It's under warranty. Don't make it your problem.

    While I 100% agree, but due to the PITA of the dealer 1) Getting appt 2) Drive to dealer 3) Uber to work 4) hopefully Uber to dealer at the end of the day or 5) Uber home then Uber to dealer next day.

    If I can easily resolve, I’d rather…..

    Missed where you posted. Seems randomish. I’m thinking rodent damage.

    A quick google search shows all these codes are air related. Could very well be rodent damage. And if that's the case there is a high chance the codes will return. A visual inspection under the hood is a good idea. Poke before you grab if you know what I mean.
