2007 Toyota Tundra complaints

ALL FOUR BRAKES WERE RENDERED ALMOST INOPERABLE DUE TO CORROSION OF CALIPERS, DISCS AND MOUNTS. DISCOVERED WHEN BRAKE PEDAL REQUIRED CONSIDERABLE EFFORT TO STOP VEHICLE. WAS TOLD BY MAINTENANCE MANAGER AT DEALERSHIP THAT BRAKES COULD HAVE FAILED AT ANY TIME. SEEMS TO BE AN ENGINEERING PROBLEM (STEEL COMPONENTS THAT RUST) EFFECTING LOW-USAGE VEHICLES. *TR

ISSUES WITH TOYOTA'S SECONDARY AIR INTAKE PUMP SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE. SINCE 2007, NOW TOYOTA HAS CONTROL OVER THE NECESSARY PARTS AND WILL RELEASE AS THEY SEEM FIT. I HAVE WAITED OVER TWO WEEKS TO GET THESE PARTS AND INSTALLED. AND THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IT WILL BE COULD BE WEEKS. THEY KNOW THAT THE PUMP HAS ISSUES AND WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM TILL IT GOES BAD. AND IF YOUR DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND YOU LOSE POWER THAT COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. MY TRUCK BROKE DOWN IN MY DRIVEWAY AS I WAS PULLING OUT TO GO ON A 3000 PLUS MILE ROAD TRIP. WISH A RECALL CAN BE ORDERED TO FIX THE ISSUE BEFORE HAND. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHILE BRAKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THE BACKING PLATE WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 108,000. UPDATED 7/10/13 *CN

THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM. INITIALLY, MY TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO A TOYOTA DEALER SERVICE CENTER ON 3/15/2012 TO AN ISSUE WITH MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT, 4-WHEEL DRIVE (4LO), VSC OFF ALL CAME ON, SLUGGISH ACCELERATION/LOSS OF ACCELERATION OCCURRED WHEN DRIVEN & MY GAS MILEAGE/FUEL EFFICIENCY DECREASED (MY TRUCK APPEARED TO 'RUN RICH'). INITIALLY THE WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS WOULD OCCASIONALLY STAY ON WHEN THE TRUCK WAS STARTED, OTHER TIMES THEY WOULD NOT. EVENTUALLY, THEY JUST STAYED ON WHENEVER THE TRUCK WAS STARTED. WHEN SERVICED, I WAS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE WAS COVERED BY MY WARRANTY & THE SECONDARY AIR SWITCHING VALVE WAS REPLACED WHICH SHOULD HAVE FIXED THE ISSUE. JUST OVER A YEAR LATER, 3/19/2013, THE SAME ISSUE HAS OCCURRED AFTER BEING TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED! THE MILEAGE THAT THIS OCCURRED AT WAS AROUND 44,000. THE PROBLEM WAS PRESENTING IN THE SAME WAY - LOSS OF ACCELERATION/SLUGGISH ACCELERATION (EXTREMELY DANGEROUS NOT TO HAVE ACCELERATION WHILE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY/INTERSTATE), THE SAME WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON & THE GAS MILEAGE/FUEL EFFICIENCY DECREASED BECAUSE THE TRUCK IS 'RUNNING RICH' AGAIN. TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER TO MAKE SURE I WOULD BE ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN GAVE THE ERROR CODE OF P2440 WHICH IS AN ERROR CODE FOR THE AIR INTAKE PUMP. HONDA DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE MAKE OF TRUCK. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP WHERE THIS PROBLEM WAS INITIALLY DIAGNOSED

2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AIR INJECTION SYSTEM PUMP MALFUNCTION. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, WHICH ALMOST CAUSED HIM TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HIS LOCAL MECHANIC, WHO INFORMED HIM OF WHAT THE FAILURE WAS. WHEN THE MECHANIC CALLED TOYOTA ABOUT THE PARTS, THE MECHANIC WAS INFORMED ABOUT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM THREE YEARS/36,000 TO FIVE YEARS/ 70,000. THE MECHANIC WAS ALSO INFORMED ABOUT A DEFECT WITH THE SYSTEM, WHICH CAUSED WATER INFILTRATION, WHICH COULD COMPROMISE THE SYSTEM. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THE CONSUMER TO VISIT THE DEALER. THE DEALER DID CONFIRM THE DIAGNOSIS WAS CORRECT. HOWEVER, THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE WARRANTY ONLY APPLIED TO A FEW STATES AND THE CONSUMERS STATED WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE CONSUMER PAID $2300 FOR THE REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC STOP WHEN THE VEHICLE BECAME RESISTANT TO ACCELERATION ATTEMPTS. THE VSC LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE CONTACT SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. HE THEN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND PERFORMED A SELF DIAGNOSTIC. THE FAILURE CODES INDICATED THAT THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTION SYSTEM HAD FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.

I STARTED MY TRUCK UP YESTERDAY JUST RANDOMLY TO GO TO THE STORE. AS SOON AS I STARTED IT A BUNCH OF WARNING LIGHTS WENT OFF. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON, THE 4WD LO LIGHT WAS BLINKING, THE VSC OFF LIGHT WAS BLINKING, AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WAS ON. I THEN TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES. I TURNED THE TRUCK BACK ON AND THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. I THEN PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY TO GO TO A FRIENDS HOUSE WHO HAS A LITTLE COMPUTER THAT TELLS YOU WHAT ERRORS ARE GOING OFF WHEN YOUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON LIKE AN AUTOBODY. AS I PULLED ONTO THE MAIN ROAD AND PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR THE TRUCK WOULD BARELY GO. THE ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE IT USUALLY DOES BUT THE TRUCK WOULD HARDLY ACCELERATE. WHEN I FINALLY GOT TO MY FRIENDS HOUSE HE PLUGGED THE COMPUTER IN AND IT GAVE ME AN ERROR CODE OF P2440. ONCE I LOOKED MORE INTO IT I FOUND THAT IT WAS THE AIR INDUCTION PUMP THAT WAS MALFUNCTIONING. FURTHER RESEARCH ONLINE I FOUND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH TUNDRA'S WITH MILEAGE BETWEEN 40K AND 60K. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS WHY THE VEHICLE IS NOT ACCELERATING LIKE IT SUPPOSED TO. MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME CONCERN. THAT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD TO ME. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THAT WOULD JUST ALL OF A SUDDEN SHUT MY ENGINE DOWN TO THE SLOW CRAWL THAT IT IS DOING IF I AM ON A TURNPIKE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I WOULD BELIEVE THAT THERE WOULD DEFINITELY BE AN ACCIDENT WHICH I AM SURE IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE. I AM JUST WONDERING IF THERE IS

ALL FOUR OF MY DOOR LOCKS STOPPED WORKING WITHIN A MONTH. ALL FOUR WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW, ALL FOUR LOCKS HAVE STOPPED WORKING AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH. TOYOTA SAID THAT THEY SEE NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY WITH THIS. THEY EXPECT ME TO PAY $2,000. TO REPLACE 4 LOCKS AGAIN. TOYOTA SAID THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS ITEM. *TR

THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CONTRIBUTED TO RUST AND THE FUEL TANK STRAPS WERE COMPLETELY RUSTED. THE CONTACT WAS TOLD BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT THEY WOULD EXTEND HIS WARRANTY TO COVER HALF OF THE REPAIR COSTS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN, BUT THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REPLACING THE BRAKES ON THE VEHICLE HE NOTICED THAT THE REAR DISCS BRAKES WERE CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THE REAR DISCS BRAKE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 64,000.

I WAS REAR-ENDED BY AN 18 WHEELER AND RAMMED INTO THE BACK OF A FORD F250. THE DAMAGE WAS IN EXCESS OF $12,500. FRAME DAMAGE OCCURRED. THE REAR WINDOW HAD TO BE REPLACED. I SUSTAINED A NECK INJURY TO INCLUDE TWO HERNIATED DISKS. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

THE STARTING DATE AND MILEAGE ABOVE IS APPROXIMATE. A SENSATION OF BEING REAR-ENDED A KIND OF BUMP OR CLUNK. YOUR STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION AND THEN CLUNK. OR, JUST BEFORE TAKING OFF FROM BEING STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION "CLUNK". THE FREQUENCY OF THIS SYMPTOM STARTED OFF AS JUST ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN FIRST NOTICED AT AROUND 36K MILES. NOW WITH 58,000 IT HAPPENS ON A REGULAR BASIS, SAY, EVERY 50 MILES OR SO. I KEEP A MILEAGE LOG FOR MY BUSINESS AND BEGAN DOCUMENTING WHEN THIS OCCURS. I PRESENTED THIS ISSUE TO THE DEALER TWICE BUT HAVE FAILED TO REPLICATE IT FOR THEM TO EXPERIENCE. *TR

I HEAR A STRANGE, ALMOST SLIPPING SOUND SOMETIMES WHEN I TAKE OFF, OR TURN A CORNER, ALMOST LIKE I'M NOT GETTING TRACTION. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME AND NEVER WHEN I TAKE IT IN..IS THIS NORMAL OR SOMETIME I SHOULD WORRY ABOUT? *TR

6/20/12 I NOTICED MASTER POWER WINDOW BUTTON ON DRIVER?S SIDE DOOR FOR THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW WAS STUCK AND WOULD NOT OPERATE. 6/21/12 I STARTED THE TRUCK IN MY DRIVEWAY AND TURNED ON THE AC, LEFT THE VEHICLE TO GRAB MY BRIEFCASE AND GET IN NO MORE THAN 15 SECONDS. WHEN I OPENED THE DOOR I NOTICED SMOKE AT THE ENTRYWAY BUT COULDN?T IDENTIFY WHAT OR WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM. I APPEARED TO GO AWAY SO I THOUGHT I WAS IMAGINING SOMETHING. I GOT IN THE TRUCK AND NOTICED THE SMELL OF BURNING ELECTRICAL WIRES ABOUT THE TIME MY HEAD TURNED I SAW SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE DRIVERS SIDE POWER WINDOW MASTER CONTROL AND GETTING BIG FAST, I OPENED THE DOOR AND IT REALLY CAME OUT FAST. TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND IMMEDIATELY TRIED TO SEE IF IT WAS FLAMES OR NOT. IT WAS NOT IN FLAMES BUT THE SMOKE WAS STILL COMING OUT. I GRABBED THE FUSE BOX PANEL AND TRIED TO IDENTIFY THE FUSE FOR THE POWER WINDOWS. IT TOOK A CALL TO THE DEALERSHIP TO IDENTIFY THE FUSE UNDER THE DASHBOARD I DIDN?T KNOW WAS THERE I THOUGHT THEE WAS ONLY 1 FUSE PANEL BOX. THE DEALERSHIP WAS EXTREMELY RESPONSIVE AND A LOT OF HELP. SERVICE ADVISOR WE IDENTIFIED THE CORRECT FUSE, REMOVED IT AND THE SMOKE STOPPED. I HAVE NO OTHER PROBLEMS THAT I KNOW OF. THIS IS A 2007 VEHICLE WITH A FIRE DEFECT. I WENT ON THE INTERNET AND SEE THAT THERE ARE IDENTIFIED PROBLEMS FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM BUT THE TUNDRA WAS NOT IDENTIFIED AS A MODEL AFFECTED BUT IT SURE SHOULD BE. THERE IS NOT A RECALL AS OF THIS TIME AND I HAVE NOT HAD IT REPAIR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, SMOKE EMITTED FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR THROUGH THE POWER SWITCH. THE SMOKE CEASED ON ITS OWN. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE WINDOW SWITCH ON THE FRONT PASSENGER'S DOOR WAS STUCK AND IT DID NOT FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE OF THE FAILURE, HOWEVER NO ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WERE UNAVAILABLE.

WAS ON MY WAY TO A JOB-SITE ON THE FREEWAY BETWEEN 9AM-10AM APPOX. GOING 65 MILES AN HOUR IN THE FAST LANE. THERE WAS A CONCRETE WALL ON MY LEFT AND A SUV ON THE RIGHT. THE SUV STARTED COMING INTO MY LANE I PUT MY BRAKES ON SUDDENLY TO HAVE THE IMPACT BE AT A SLOWER SPEED BUT AS I PUSHED DOWN ON THEM THEY FELL TO THE FLOOR SO I WAS TAKEN OUT AT 65 MILES AN HOUR. THE MAN WAS A RN NURSE WHO PULLED A GRAVEYARD SHIFT AND WAS DOSING OFF. HE ADMITTED IT WAS HIS FAULT AND THE COP SAID NO REPORT WOULD BE MADE BECAUSE THE LAW IS NO AMBULANCES NO REPORT. I DEMANDED A REPORT AND HE SAID THAT IS CALIFORNIA'S NEW LAW. TOLD TOYOTA ABOUT THE BRAKES FALLING TO THE FLOOR. THERE ANSWER IS " THAT IT WAS NORMAL". THEY INSPECTED THE ENGINE FOR DAMAGE. THEY NEVER INSPECTED THE BRAKES.. I AM NOW GOING THROUGH TOYOTA CORPORATION DEMANDING BRAKE INSPECTION! TRUCK WENT TO THE BODY SHOP TO BE REPAIRED.... *JS

WAS TURNING LEFT AT AT AN INTERSECTION HAD A GREEN ARROW WHEN SOMEONE WENT THROUGH A RED LIGHT . WHEN I STARTED TO BRAKE MY BRAKE FELL TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKES AT ALL WAS IN A HEAD ON COLLISION. AFTER THE POLICE CAME AND TALKED WITH BOTH OF US, THE OTHER PARTY ADMITTED GUILT SO SINCE THERE WERE NO AMBULANCES AND THE OTHER PARTY STATED GUILT (NO POLICE REPORT WAS MADE). I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO TOYOTA AND ASKED ABOUT THE BRAKE FALLING TO THE FLOOR THE NEXT DAY . THEIR ANSWER WAS" IT WAS NORMAL!" THEY CHECKED THE ENGINE FOR DAMAGE . THEN IT WENT TO MIKES AUTOBODY FOR BODY DAMAGE. THEY NEVER INSPECTED THE BRAKES, AS THEY FELT IT WAS NOT AN ISSUE.

BOUGHT A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. NOTICED AROUND 23,450 MILES THAT SOMETHING WAS TURNING (SPINNING) AND FELT LIKE IT WAS COMING THROUGH THE DRIVERSIDE FLOOR . RIGHT UNDERNEATH MY FEET. BROUGHT IT IN TOYOTA SAID THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING. LATER HEARD NOISES ON THE LEFT SIDE OF ENGINE NEAR LEFT TIRE. THEN SHAKING AND VIBRATIONS FOLLOWED. AROUND 60,000 MILES TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING AND CLUNKING NOISES CAME FROM THE ENGINE. 65,000 MILES STARTED LOSING POWER. FUEL PUMP FAILURE. PAID FOR A NEW FUEL PUMP SYSTEM $777.79. TURNS OUT 2007 MODEL HAS TO REPLACE WHOLE SYSTEM. NO OTHER TUNDRA NEEDS TO. AT 68,000 MILES IT GOT WORSE . TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSTIC SAYS TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. $4500. AT 96,000 MILES MY TRUCK IN NON OPERATING. TOYOTA WILL NOT REPLACE TRANSMISSION. EVEN THOUGH A TOYOTA OPERATIONS MANAGER STATES IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR TRANSMISSION TO GO OUT THIS SOON AT SO LITTLE MILEAGE. THE AVERAGE TIME IS BETWEEN 15-20 YEARS WITH THE HIGH TECHNOLOGY THAT CARS ARE BUILT WITH NOW A DAYS. IS WHAT HE SAID TO ME. OLDER CARS BUILT YEARS AGO TRANSMISSIONS NORMALLY LAST AROUND 5 YEARS SOMETIMES 10 IF THEY WERE LUCKY. SO SUPPOSEDLY OUR VEHICLES ARE BUILT SMARTER NOW ADAYS. I HAVE SO MANY PROBLEMS I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE. *JS

WHEN I HAVE COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE CAR LUNGES ,RATHER IT FEELS AS IF ANOTHER VEHICLE HAS BUMPED ME FROM BEHIND.FROM DAY 1 ALMOST THEY TOLD ME IT IS "NORMAL" I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 45 YRS. AND THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS A MFG. DEFECT THAT IS PROBABLY SO EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR THAT THEY ARE LEAVING IT TO THE OWNER TO REPAIR AFTER THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT I HAVE 32,000 MI. ON IT AND IT CONTINUOUSLY DOES THIS ON A REGULAR BASIS.HELP!!!!!! *JS

7/2007 PURCHASED 07 TUNDRA W/MAINT PLAN&EXTENDED WARRANTY 9/2010 4342MILES SOUTHCOAST TOYOTA-MAINTENANCE,WE ASKED THEM TO TAKE A LOOK AT SURFACE RUST. THEY NOTED IT AND SAID WAS DUE TO SALT AIR 2/2012 6504MILES SOUTHCOAST TOYOTA TO PERFORM BRAKE SERVICE. APPARENTLY BRAKE PAD HAD FALLEN OFF DUE TO CORROSION OF CALIPERS & PINS AND THEY REFUSE TO SERVICE THE TRUCK BECAUSE IT WOULD BE TOO MUCH TO REPAIR BUT REFUSE TO EVEN GIVE US ESTIMATE. THEY SAID THE CORROSION HAS COMPROMISED THE SAFETY OF THE TRUCK, BUT NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. WE WERE TOLD THAT WE DID NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE ENOUGH AND THAT'S WHY IT IS RUSTED SO BADLY ALL OVER (TRUCK WAS DRIVEN LOCALLY AT LEAST 3 OR 4 TIMES A WEEK BY ELDERLY COUPLE). WE REQUESTED A COPY OF FIELD REPS REPORT, BUT THEY SAID IT IS PROPRIETARY INFO WE DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO. SERVICE MANAGER RUDELY ASKED US TO REMOVE OUR TRUCK FROM THE DEALERSHIP BUT WE CANNOT DRIVE IT OFF BECAUSE BRAKES NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. WERE TOLD TO TAKE THE 5 YR OLD TRUCK WITH 6500 MILES TO THE JUNK YARD. DURING 2010 MAINTENANCE WHEN THEY WERE AWARE OF CORROSION, WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF POSSIBLE BRAKE FAILURE OR WEAKENED STRUCTURE DUE TO RUST THAT WOULD OCCUR IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS TIME. INSTEAD ELDERLY COUPLE CONTINUED DRIVING VEHICLE UNTIL UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT BEING ADVISED OF HOW SEVERE OF CONDITION THE TRUCK IS. THEY HAVE LIVED BY THE BEACH (2 MILES FROM DEALERSHIP) FOR 30 YRS & OWNED A FEW TRUCKS, NEVER RUST SO BAD. TOYOTA IS FORTUNATE THAT NO ONE WAS HURT

TURNED THE TRUCK ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS WERE BOTH ON, 4 LO AND VSC OFF LIGHTS WERE BOTH FLASHING, THE TRUCK SOUNDED NOTICEABLY LOUDER AND NOW HAS A LOSS OF POWER. CODES SHOW P2440. *JS

TRUCK WOULDN'T ACCELERATE WHEN PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC. WILL NOT REACH SAFE SPEED FOR FREEWAY COMMUTE. *JS

I TOOK MY TUNDRA IN FOR THE GAS PEDAL RECALL REPAIR, NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES PRIOR. EVER SINCE THE "FIX" WAS PERFORMED, I HAVE AN UNCONTROLLED LURCHING WHEN PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP. *JS

WHEN STOPPING FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT/STOP SIGN FROM 40-50MPH, THE TRUCK STOPS NORMALLY. AFTER ABOUT 1.5 SECONDS WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP, THE TRUCK GIVES A KICK. IT IS SEVERE ENOUGH THAT IT FEELS AS IF YOU HAD BEEN REAR ENDED. THE WHOLE TRUCK SHUTTERS. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO GIVES THE, "I CAN'T DUPLICATE IT" SPIELS. MY TRANNY FLUID WAS LOW DUE TO A LEAKING REAR SEAL SO THEY BLAMED IT ON THAT. THEY CHANGED THE ALUMINUM FRONT DRIVESHAFT AS THEY STATED IT CAUSED THE LEAK. PROBLEM NEVER WENT AWAY. DOES NOT HAPPEN AT ANY OTHER TIME. SUSPECT THE FIRST GEAR CLUTCH PACKS ARE RELEASING AND RE-ENGAGING. COULD BE MECHANICAL BUT IT IS ALSO A POSSIBLE PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION ECU. SIMILAR ISSUE WITH THE 2007-UP CAMRY WHICH WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE TORQUE CONVERTER. *TR

HELLO, TWO DAY AGO I WAS PULLING PUT OF MY CONDO COMPLEX WHEN I NOTICED A BURNING PLASTIC SMELL. AFTER ABOUT 20 SECONDS SMOKE AND VERY SMALL FLAMES STARTED TO POUR OUT OF THE DRIVERS DOOR PANEL WHERE THE SWITCHES ARE LOCATED. THERE WAS NO MAJOR FIRE DAMAGE BUT THE CAR WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE AND THE SWITCH THAT OPERATES THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOW MELTED DOWN. I FORTUNATELY HAD SOME TOOLS NEARBY SO I QUICKLY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY CABLES AS IT WAS STILL ARCING AND SPARKING. THE ONLY SWITCH THAT WORKS PROPERLY IS THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WINDOW. THE FOLLOWING DAY I TOLD MY CO WORKER ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. TODAY HE SHOWED ME THE AUTOBLOG.COM ARTICLE REGARDING THE STORY ABOUT TOYOTAS WINDOW SWITCHES CATCHING FIRE. HOW DO I GO ABOUT REPORTING THIS TO YOU GUYS OR SOMEONE ELSE. MY TRUCK IS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA DOUBLE CAB 4.7 V8 2WD TRD. *TR

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHERE A FULL SIZE DODGE RAM PICK UP HIT ME ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY TOYOTA. IT HIT ME ON THE FRONT FENDER AND SLIGHTLY ON THE FRONT OF THE DOOR. WHEN I WAS HIT ON THE SIDE MY SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WHEN I WAS HIT MY HEAD IT THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW AND KNOCKED ME OUT. WHICH IN TURN MY TRUCK WAS STILL IN MOTION WHILE I WAS KNOCKED OUT AND I PROCEEDED TO GO THROUGH A LADIES YARD AND CAME TO A STOP ONCE IT HIT HER SHED HEAD ON, WHICH THOSE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY EITHER. I HAD TO BE TRANSPORTED BY AMBULANCE TO THE HOSPITAL HAVE A CT SCAN DONE. I SUFFER FROM HEAD ACHES, NECK PAIN AND SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS. I ALSO HAD TO MISS TWO DAYS OF WORK. THE WRECK WAS SUFFICIENT ENOUGH IT TOTALED BOTH FULL SIZE PICK UPS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD ABNORMALLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, A LOUD BANGING NOISE WAS EXHIBITED FROM THE ENGINE AREA AS THE VEHICLE DECELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ATTACHED TO A TRAILER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF THIRD GEAR ON AND THEN FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF FOURTH GEAR LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

#25701-38060 EMISSION VALVE SET & CLIP FAILED. VEHICLE STARTED HAVING HESITATION (LIMP MODE) ISSUES....BECOMING NOT DRIVABLE. IT COST OUR COMPANY TIME AND MONEY. IT HAD TO BE REPAIRED A SECOND TIME THE NEXT YEAR....JUNE 29, 2010. TOYOTA IS LETTING CUSTOMERS PICK UP THE REPAIR COSTS FOR THEIR MIS-DESIGN. SERVICE DEPTS., BOTH AT SIOUX CITY IA & LINCOLN NE, STATED THIS HAD BEEN HAPPENING TO OTHER CUSTOMERS REGARDING THIS ISSUE ON THE 2007 TUNDRA. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD DID NOT APPEAR/ OR NO WARNING SIGNS AT ALL THAT BRAKES IS NOT TOTALLY WORKING AND WE ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT. *TR

WHEN COMING TO A STOP, I FEEL A CLUNK AND AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, IT FEELS LIKE ANOTHER VEHICLE BUMPS THE REAR BUMPER. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK BUT TOYOTA DEALER SAYS THAT'S NORMAL, NOTHING WRONG. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. *TR

AFTER THE DEALER COMPLETED THE ACCELERATOR RECALL, MY TRUCK NOW HAS A SLIGHT STALL WHEN TAKING OFF AND IF THERE IS ANY ROUGHNESS IN DRIVING SURFACE, THE TRUCK DOES THIS LURCHING/ACCELERATION AT EACH BUMP. IT'S ALMOST LIKE WHEN THEY REPROGRAMMED THE ACCELERATOR, THEY MADE IT TOO SENSITIVE. I WASN'T HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE PEDAL PRIOR TO THEIR "FIX" BUT THEY FORCED ME TO HAVE THE "REPAIR" DONE. *TR

MY VEHICLE SET A DTC P2440 FOR THE SECONDARY AIR INDUCTION VALVE STUCK OPEN. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS REPAIR IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO WATER INTRUSION. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT MY VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN UNDER WATER OR OFF ROAD. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW/ENGINEERING DEFECT THAT TOYOTA CREATED AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS A RECALL FOR ALL AFFECTED MODELS FOR REPLACEMENT FOR A BETTER OR REDESIGNED PART. THE COST OF REPLACEMENT FOR THE AFFECTED PARTS IS BEYOND REASONABLE FOR ALL TOYOTA OWNERS. TOYOTA NEEDS TO STEP UP AND FIX THERE FLAW. I PULLED OUT ONTO A PUBLIC ROAD AND HAD NO POWER AND WAS NEARLY INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. ITS NOT SAFE AND VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA 4.7. APPROXIMATELY 124,000 KMS ENGINE WENT INITO LIMP MODE. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS AIR PUMP AND VALVE BANK FAILURE, $4700 REPAIR ESTIMATE. NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE OVER 100,000 KMS. ALSO PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS VEHICLE HOWEVER THESE PARTS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. (GO FIGURE) PURSUED THE EMISSIONS WARRANTY WHICH COVERS EMISSION CONTROL PARTS, HOWEVER TOYOTA CLAIMS THIS IS NOT PART OF THE EMISSION SYSTEM EVEN THOUGH THE AIR PUMP CONTROLS EMISSIONS AT VEHICLE START UP. TOOK THE PUMP OFF THE VEHICLE AND DRAINED THE WATER FROM THE POORLY DESIGNED SYSTEM, LUBRICATED THE PUMP AND GOT IT WORKING. TRUCK WENT BACK INTO LIMP MODE AFTER A COUPLE DAYS NOW APPARENTLY VALVE BANK IS STUCK. TOYOTA STILL RECOMMENDS REPLACING ALL THE PARTS FOR $4700. NOT HAPPY WITH TOYOTA THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL THE PUMP IS LOCATED IN THE FENDER WELL DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF RIGHT FRONT TIRE, THE INTAKE PIPE FOR THE PUMP IS DESIGNED SO THAT ANY WATER PRESENT GOES DIRECTLY INTO THE PUMP CAUSING THE SYSTEM FAILURE. IT WOULD BE A PRETTY SIMPLE FIX FOR TOYOTA JUST PUT A 90 DEGREE BEND IN THE PIPE SO THAT WATER CANNOT GET IN AND REPOSITION THE INTAKE HOLE. TRYING TO SELL TUNDRA IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED. *KB

1ST WEEK OF APRIL, 2011, 2007 TUNDRA WENT INTO "LIMP" MODE, HOOKED UP TESTER, SAID P2442 CODE. COMMON PROBLEM, ON THESE TRUCKS, FROM WHAT DEALER TOLD ME. ORDERED PARTS, AT THAT TIME. $1500.00 OF PARTS ORDERED. TOOK 9 WEEKS, TO GET PARTS. A VERY DANGEROUS TRUCK TO DRIVE, WITH THIS SITUATION. CAN'T PARK IT, TO WAIT 9 WEEKS, FOR PARTS, STILL MAKING PAYMENTS. NO POWER, DANGEROUS ON FREEWAY, OR ANY WHERE ELSE. TOYOTA WAS STILL SENDING NEW TRUCKS, TO BE SOLD, WHEN, THEY COULD HAVE SENT PARTS, TO FIX THIS VERY EXPENSIVE, AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. IF THIS IS AN EMISSIONS ISSUE, SHOULDN'T A RECALL BE MADE, AND AT LEAST PRTS TO FIX, BE REIMBURSED? HAVE PURCHASED 5 NEW TOYOTAS, FOR FAMILY AND BUSINESS, OVER LAST 10 YEARS, WILL LOOK ELSEWHERE, NEXT TIME I TRADE. I WENT FROM DOMESTIC, TO TOYOTA, FOR THE SAME REASON, 10 YEARS AGO. NOW TOYOTA IS ACTING LIKE FORD AND GM, DID, AT THAT TIME./ WILL BUY GM OR FORDS NEXT TIME. TOYOTA HAS TREATED ME LIKE CRAP, AT THE DEALER LEVEL, AND ON THE CORPORATE LEVEL. THESE PARTS ARE ONLY COVERED 3 YEAR/36,000 MILES. TOYOTA KNOWS THAT THESE PARTS, ARE DEFECTIVE!! IF THE PARTS ARE SMOG RELATED, NEED TO HAVE A RECALL!! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BEGAN TO STICK WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONTACTS VEHICLE HAD THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V017000 (VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL ACCELERATOR PEDAL) RECALL. THE VIN WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL; THE FAILURE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

2 AIR INDUCTION PUMPS (AIP) AND ASSOCIATED VALUES FAILURE AROUND 60K MILES. ACCORDING TO TOYOTA THE REASON FOR THE FAILURE IS MOISTURE. NEW PUMPS AND VALVES CAN BE INSTALLED FOR $4000 OR IF YOU ARE LUCKY AND YOU ONLY NEED TO REPLACE ONE PUMP AND BOTH VALVES IT ONLY COST $2150. THE NEW PUMPS AND VALUES HAVE BEEN MODIFIED SO THEY SHOULD NOT FAILURE AS FAST AS ORIGINALS. IF THE NEW PUMPS AND VALVES HAD TO BE "MODIFIED" THEN IT LEADS ONE TO BELIEVE THE ORIGINALS HAD A DESIGN FLAW. *TR

2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA WENT INTO LIMP MODE. ERROR P2442 REPORTED. 75K MILES ON TRUCK WITH AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM VALVE STICKING DUE TO WHAT APPEAR TO BE WATER INTRUSION. THE FAILURE STARTED OUT INTERMITTENTLY, THEN BECAME CONSISTENT. COST $1000 TO REPLACE BOTH VALVES IN EACH AIR INDUCTION BANK. WORRIED THAT THE PUMPS WILL FAIL IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
