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.
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.
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.
Didnt 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 couldnt 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.
Check engine came on, took to local Toyota shop, checked codes, p0012, camshaft position, "a" timing over retarded-bank one & p0022 same for bank number two. Activated both vvt systems & checked operation of both vvt. All working fine at this time. All four oil control valves test working fine at this time. Checked oil control valve filter test working fine at this time. If check engine light comes on again after that, then need to replace camshaft timing gears inside engine. Has Toyota addressed this problem? are there any recalls?.
2007 Toyota Tundra. Consumer writes in regards to air injection system pump malfunction. 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.
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 & 'fixed' the first time. Have been told by the service technician that the issue is the same problem as last time. However, this technician has informed me that the reason this problem has occurred yet again, is because there is a passenger side & a driver side part. The one replaced last year was the passenger side. This time, it's the drivers side that needs to be replaced.
Air injection system failure causes a check engine light to appear and can cause the vehicle to go into "cripple" mode limiting throttle and speed to 40 mph which could be a serious safety concern in some driving conditions. Dealer stated they currently have two other Tundras there with the exact same problem they. Are "replacing the air injection pumps and valves for a total cost of ~$4000 if the vehicle is not under warranty anymore this is all at the owners expense. This is a dangerous problem due to it prevents acceleration and you have a sudden loss of power quite dangerous when merging or in a flow of traffic. .
Air injection system failure causes a check engine light to appear and can cause the vehicle to go into "cripple" mode limiting throttle and speed to 40 mph which could be a serious safety concern in some driving conditions. Dealer stated they are "fixing" ~2 vehicles a day and replacing the air injection pumps and valves for a total cost of ~$4000 if the vehicle is not under warranty anymore. In my case, the dealer replaced one pump a week ago and now the second pump has failed ($1100 for each pump). There has not a design change to the pumps or valves in the system with the replacement parts so the failure will happen again in another 30-50k miles. Dealer claims moisture in the system is causing the problems. A quick google search on the problem shows the problem is systemic with 2007+ Tundras and sequoias with the 5. 7l v8. Other manufactures use an air injection system with a much lower cost and there does not seam to be any problems with them.
