2008 Toyota Tundra code# P2443 air injection system switching valve stuck closed bank 2. truck went into (limp mode) causing little power in heavy traffic. Toyota dealer says min. $2000 fix for two pumps or a switch valve.lot of people with same problem, needs to be a recall.
2008 Toyota Tundra. While driving at 65 mph, I had a air induction valve fail all of a sudden which caused my vehicle to suddenly stall into limp mode. I know this part has to do with emissions but how it caused the vehicle to respond when it failed if very dangerous. I was in heavy traffic and this sudden switch to limp mode caused me to basically loose control for a few seconds in bumper to bumper traffic. It was very dangerous as the vehicle suddenly dropped to about 35 mph with no control. Traffic was swerving around me and honking their horns as my vehicle suddenly dropped from 65 mph to 35 mph. I understand parts will fail periodically but the way the vehicle switches to limp mode when this particular problem occurs needs to be redeveloped and fixed or some serious accidents are going to be the result. I have found that this is a more than common occurrence with Toyota Tundra in the 2007 and 2008 years. Thanks for you attention to this matter.
