Mechanics repairing my electrical system said that rats or mice are attrcted to the soy wiring in the engine compartment and said Toyota knows this but provides no help warning or assistance my engine could have failed and did... my truck is a 2007 Toyota Tundra crew cabin, VIN is : 5tfrt541X7X''' the issue came from nowhere almost vausing us to get hit by normal speed traffic and unable to deal with it at all simply driving down the road when the engine first stopped accelerating, then causing us to move only at low speed putting us in serious jeopardy
We received a recall for this vehicle from Toyota to say the secondary air injection system valve stuck open, we contacted them, the vehicle was under the mileage, but, under the year of manufacture, this was relayed to us on two different occasions, verbally, Toyota seems reluctant to put it in writing. The problem they said is caused by a faulty sensor installed when the vehicle was assembled. When the sensor triggers, the vehicle looses power immediately, this can be very dangerous when overtaking for example. On both occasions the verbal message we receive says Toyota will not repair the problem, even though they sent a recall letter, and the problem is caused by a faulty sensor installed when the vehicle was manufactured. If you require more information please let us know thank you

Since the day that I bought this vehicle I have complained about the rust. It was 2 yes old with 17,000 miles on it. The bed and frame are badly rusted. I received a letter from Toyota about frame and they applied some weird black stuff. Total nightmare. The bed, even though I found a service bulletin they say too late to do anything. Even though I have been complaining at more then 5 dealership's since 2009 and called corporate numerous times. The bed is dangerous and has been. The support structure, .around mounting bolts, eventually bed will separate from frame. Very critical safety issue. Known problem but won't honor. Next problem that they also have an updated warranty which I was never notified about. Secondary air injection system fails, which is an emissions component. Critical to keep emissions low.
Service engine light came on while driving under 30mph. Engine no longer starts correctly. Only 51,000 miles. Air pump assembly and air switching valves error code. (P0418) known defunct parts for 2007 Tundra which Toyota extended warranty to 10 years or 150,000 miles. Warranty not sufficient length for this model year for low mileage vehicles. Could not have had properly fixed until check engine light comes on. However, parts fail at 50K+ miles. Please extend warranty to appropriate length for this issue. Numerous similar instances noted upon internet research.
I took my truck for service at a Toyota Tundra and the shop informed me that my air pump was defective. I can't go above 30 mph up hill and it doesn't shift correctly when my truck is in limp mode. The traction control light, vehicle swerve control light, and check engine light stays on.
While driving the truck to las vegas Aug, 2018 was passing a line of semi's going to slow after passing about 3 of them the engine just stopped running, had to get to side of road fast, after making it there the truck would not start again. After an hour or so it started. Made it to vegas. The same thing happened several times since that day also there is no warning lights such as "check engine" light that came on.this truck was bought new in 2008, when the first time that happened it had 29080 miles on it, I don't drive it that much as I am retired so don't drive as much as I did before.that trip to vegas could have been all to different had I not been able to get off freeway, because the stearing at 70 mph is not too good, could have been bad accident for my wife and myself, and others that may have been involved. Toyota dealer said he never heard of a problem like that when I called them. Have searched several web sites and found complaints with same problem therefore I believe Toyota knows about it but refuses to repair their problem. Maybe they need a high total of deaths before fixing their problem. I think its a fuel pump problem or related to the engine.
I have a 5.7L 2007 Toyota Tundra. It has been raining real bad in Texas and the other day the check engine light came on when I was going down the highway and it lost power. I took it and had it checked. I have an error code P0419. I have read multiple instances online and an extended warranty was issues for 10 years 150K miles, but I am out by time, and I only have 88K miles. This is a safety issues as if I was passing someone and lost power, I could have been in a wreck. This has been a known issue by Toyota and needs to be addressed by a general recall.
The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Tundra. While driving 35 mph, the vehicle went into limp mode, failed to accelerate, and lost power. In addition, the anti-lock braking system, traction control, and check engine warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that the secondary pump and switching valve needed to be replaced. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and provided case number: 1808030456. The failure mileage was 148,000.
The emission air pumps and valves failed on truck which put truck in limp mode which made unsafe to drive only able to go 20 mph and almost causing an accident tsb 0329-08 on highway needs to be a recall
Secondary air injection system Toyota issued bulletin, T sb 0160 11. The truck went into limp mode on the interstate truck slowed to 50 mph, was dangerous trying to get out of traffic. This should be recalled, instead it's appropriate $4000 repair. It is so common bypass units are available on ebay for $200.
My traction control light has came on and stays on, my vsc light continuously flashes. The code that it keeps sending is P2440 and P2441 (secondary injection). I had went overseas with the military for two years and came back last year to change the battery and this started. The truck only has 75,000 miles. This is all the time, doesn't matter stopped, going, high speed, low speed.
I had all the dash lights flashing and the transfer case stuck in 4wheel drive low, an engine misfire and vibration. I took it to my mechanic and he said it was an air pump valve problem. He cleared the codes in the computer and I drove it home. The next morning it did the same thing. I took it back and he got it running again. The weather has since warmed up and it hasn't done it since. That was a couple months ago. I found out that Toyota was extending the warranty to 10 years and 100,000 miles. So I took it to foss Toyota in casper, wy. They told me they couldn't fix it unless it malfunctioned right there on their lot. I contacted Toyota headquarters by E-mail, I explained the problem and was phoned by someone at Toyota. They told me the same thing. I say bullcookies. Those engine fail codes are still in the computer. And I believe they're stalling until my 10 years are up this coming September. This air pump repair is a $5,000 to $6,000 bill. I think Toyota should repair my truck, I bought it from them in good faith, I had to have a $1,000 + engine belt and a water pump put on it already, and now this" what are my options when dealing with a less than honest company" when the dash lights flashing and the transfer case stuck in 4WD. It was parked in my garage and I just started it up on a cold morning. Thank you
My vsc off light has been blinking when I started my truck when I got off work at 3:00P.M. central time. My check engine light is on as well. I brought my truck to auto zone for a diagnostics test and came up with code P2440. My vsc off light came on one day not loo long ago, but went off so I thought nothing of it. Loss of power.
Didn't notice till after a mile of driving but my check engine light, vsc, and 4lo were flashing. I could not accelerate past 50 miles per hour. Unfortunately the Toyota dealership was closed and I took it in to auto shop to get the codes scanned to provide to Toyota dealership. In order to get home I had to get the codes cleared out to get it out of limp mode but I drove it to the Toyota dealership the next day and provided the codes and necessary information. Unfortunately they needed to get the codes off themselves I explained that there was a 2007 and 2008 Tundra ? tsb 032908 but they couldn't verify the problem and told me that next time it happens to bring it in without resetting the codes. Well it happened again today almost a month later. I'm taking the vehicle to a local dealership other than the initial one as towing charges would be outrages. I hope Toyota can get his corrected for others regardless if you have the codes or not it should be a mandatory notice for all Toyota Tundra owners so you do not get stranded far from a dealership or eventually have that issue as it is provided only if you have up to 150K miles or 10years from when the vehicle was purchased.
I got an obd II code P2440 secondary air injection valve stuck open as I was pulling out of the driveway and almost got stuck in the road. From what I've read there are quite a few vehicles affected by this but I never got a letter from Toyota indicating the elongation of warranty on the affected part/S for 2007-2010 Tundra's and sequoias. I'm trying to resolve it right now with Toyota but they haven't given me a firm answer as to if it was warranty related or not.
