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.
2007 Toyota Tundra transmission complaints

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. When the vehicle was parked the contact noticed two plastic pieces that surround the gear shift were bent and had crumbled which made it difficult to place the gear shift in the desired gear. The gear shift became caught in between the plastic. The contact had to push the plastic down in order to move the gear shift since the vehicle did not recognize when the gear shift was in the park position until the contact pushed the two plastic pieces downward. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technicians stated that the two plastic cover pieces attached to the gear shift needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 63,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. The contact stated after receiving a recall in regards to the federal safety agency campaign id number 07v579000 (power train:driveline:driveshaft) and taking the vehicle in for inspection, he was advised that his vehicle was not experiencing the failure. Within a few months, he noticed that when he drove at various speeds, there was a very violent shaking in the drive shaft. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer and they advised him that they were not going to assist him. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000. The VIN was unavailable.
Drive yolk went out and blew the rear transmission seal. Could have dropped the drive shaft and caused serious injury. Over 2000 dollars to repair. This truck has been maintained to the tee, all maintenance done on the dot! Very well taken care of. The truck is with high mileage, 90,000. However, we were told at time sale it had a 100,000 mile power train warranty in which there was no worry there because if maintained it would last for 300,000 plus miles.now we are told that is not so it was not 100,000 miles, it was only 60,000. The truck was very well maintained, all highway miles, drive 50 miles one way to work everyday on interstate, never taken off road, never pull anything. Well so much for honesty, because they basically told me to bad, so sad. I see toyota is recalling all the 2011 models for drive yolk failure, and I have seen quite a few complaints on various places online on the 2007 tundra?s drive shaft/yolk. They did recall the driveshafts for the 4x4 tundras in 2007, but not the 4 x 2?s. Can?t they see there is a problem here also? The truck always felt like something was bumping you when you stopped. We were just told it was normal for the tundra. So watch out folks with lower mileage. I bought a toyota when I was going to get another vehicle with a longer bumper to bumper warranty but the toyota salesman talked us out of it with his 100,000 mile (lie) power train warranty and his 300,000 mile comments. Well, what do I do now? This is ridiculous that they will not stand behind there product or even offer a discount, just a sorry about your luck!
Purchased 07 tundra in aug 2010 and by dec 2010 we had issues with 4wd gauges blinking/dinging and loss of power/acceleration. Followed the manual and no fix. Problem eventually quit after about 3 days. Problem resumed on 2/14/11 and took to auto shop to have diagnosed. Code p2440 was given and we really do not want to return to the local toyota dealer due to lack of quality sales and service. Also do not have the estimated $1300+ to fix problem. Help toyota, why do we read that this seems to be a common problem with tundras having 50k+ miles?
Abs, trac and 4hi warning lights all on while driving. Vehicle ABS and trac control all ceased to function. Was driving in slippery road conditions. Almost lost control of vehicle. After stopping vehicle, 4hi would not engage. This is 4th or 5th time this has occurred over the past 2 years. Mostly occurs during cold weather but not always. Have taken truck to dealer after these occurrences and 2 of the times the dealer has been able to replicate the situation. When truck is in state of flashing lights, the truck always returns to normal when you turn off vehicle, wait and then restart it. Dealer has replaced parts now 4 times and still having the same problem
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. While driving 35 MPH the contact heard a popping noise near the drive line. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer who replaced the transmission bearings. The repair did not remedy the failure. The contact took the vehicle back to the dealer who stated that there was nothing to repair. While driving the vehicle responded as if it were going to shift out of gear. The contact called the manufacturer and was told that there was nothing they could do if the check engine light does not come on. The contact was concerned since the vehicle could potentially break down. The failure mileage was 60,000.
I bought my 2007 tundra 6/30/2007 ran great until around 18,500 mi. At that time the transmission started making a banging noise which it felt like the 05 4 runner. The 4 runner still does it but it runs and drives fine. The tundra is getting really bad as it is grinding and banging. I have been in contact with toyota from my area and they keep saying I have to bring it in to have it checked. I have had several appointments and they usually call and cancel the appointment. I contacted different corporate exc's and one from california called and made an app. And I was there for it. I waited for 1 1/2 hours and the rep didn't show. I am now going to send mr.akio toyoda, president of toyota a certified letter. His address iscorporate headquarters* 1 toyota-cho toyota city, aichi 471-8571 japan phone: 81 5 6528 2121 fax: 81 5 6523 5800 I hope everyone that has a problem will send a certified letter to him and let him know how embarrassed the toyota co. Should be for the way they are handling the problems. I for one will go back to gm as they will half try to help.
I had my truck in for service and they fix the gas pedal which has made it worse. The truck hesitates then lurches ahead. It happens all the time. Also the transmission is making a banging noise and doesn't shift right. It bangs on acceleration and deceleration have had it to the dealers shop and they acknowledge the problem but won't fix it.
2007 toyota tundra. Consumer states cruise control does engage and then will not disengage brakes. *tgw the consumer stated the brakes would not hold at stop signs and the vehicle would move forward. The vehicle had electrical shorts in the wiring such as; the headlights, clock, cigarette lighter, alarm and door locks. The seat belts would not always latch. The windshield wipers would not activate, there was a severe shake coming from the front of the vehicle as well as when the brakes were applied. There was a noise coming from the 4-wheel drive, the steering would act erratic and the accelerator pedal became stuck which caused the consumer to have an accident while backing out of his driveway..
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota tundra. The contact stated that when she depressed the brake pedal, the vehicle would jump and vibrate. The failure was becoming progressively worse. The contact called the manufacturer who stated that the failure could be within the rear differential but there was no remedy at the time of the complaint. The manufacturer stated that they would notify the contact when a solution was available. The failure mileage was approximately 26,000. The current mileage was approximately 30,000.
I took my 2007 tundra for a modification of the pedal to toyota. On the date below. I am concern about the way the pedal is working. Every time the truck bounces or hits a bump, my truck accelerates, because of the sensitivity of the pedal. It did not do that before. I am in the process of taking it back. As soon as I can take some time off of work again. I just thought you might want to know how the modification is working on my tundra. Thank you for your time.
I have a 2007 toyota tundra sr5 double cab and have had all of my regular maintenance completed on time and at a local toyota dealership. I have made the complaint of my gas pedal sticking and my floor mats were not an issue. They claim they "fixed" the recall problem with adding a part to the gas pedal. Since I have had my truck back, it has not worked properly. The gas pedal still accelerates on its on or decelerates on its on. The gas pedal "floats" with your foot so the engine is constantly making the RPM's rise and fall constantly upon riding over bumps or hills. I don't want a "part" to be installed, I want the entire pedal to be replaced! I like my truck, however, the engine does not run correctly and is constantly making a ticking sound like a diesel engine would sound. I have made several complaints to the dealership and they are constantly telling me it is ok and nothing is wrong. Transmissions are not made to just down shift 3 gears right off the bat on the interstate on flat ground. Nothing has been done to try to correct this problem as they proclaim there is no problem. They are crazy! Pulling a horse trailer made it difficult for the transmission to shift properly and it was in tow mode. It took 1 mile or longer for it to shift from 1/2 gear to 4 gear and the RPM's were over 2,500.. This is not normal. I felt it would never shift downward from 1/2 gear. I am afraid to pull my horses with the transmission acting this way.
The gas pedal stuck I put the vehicle in neutral and my foot on the brake. Now the truck is not driving right. It sounds like the transmission is messed up now.
Bought my tundra in 07 . In 09 of jan. I took it to toyota stating after braking it felt like being hit from behind. Toyota replaced the driveshaft. In oct. Of 09 it started all over again. Took it back to toyota they said they replaced it once & would not replace it again & that it would keep having this problem. I've emailed toyota , called customer care they said its a characteristic of the tundra. I only have 42000 miles on truck. If I would of known this I wouldn't have bought it. They told me that the lemon law was only 2 years & that wouldnt help. Where do I go from here.
Vehicle hard to stop with A/C or headlights on. Engine idles normally 5-600 RPM, until parking lights or A/C is turned on. Then it idles at 800 RPM in gear. Sometimes it feels like you've been rear ended, after coming to a stop. If driving surface is slippery and put into gear with head lights on, the rear tires will begin to spin, without touching the accelerator. This is a daily occurence that has been taken to different toyota dealers with no relief. All they can say is that the computer says everything is okay. Turning the parking lights on does not cause enough load on the engine to warrant the extra 200 or more RPM. The other day ( 01/26/2010 ) I was turning around in a muddy driveway and while idling I turned the steering wheel to the left. I let my foot off the brake and the truck went straight, even as I applied the brakes, leaving two big ruts through my friends yard. This was caused by the ground being slippery and the high idle speed. I am sure that this will cut down on the life of the brakes. 4.7 v8 engine
I own a 2007 toyota tundra - 4x4. Several times I noticed that it had moved from where I parked it. It had moved from the spot that I had placed it and rolled backwards, down a fairly steep grade, a distance of around 20 feet. I tried several times to replicate the incident and discovered the following: when parked on a hill without the parking brake engaged the transmission would not "lock" in park while the truck was in 2 wheel drive. This condition can be replicated only when the truck is placed into park immediately after having the anti skid (traction control) respond to a slippery condition. The problem does not occur when the truck is placed into 4 wheel drive. The problem also does not occur if the automated anti skid response does not activate itself. The rolling does not always begin immediately. I have not yet tried to get the same responses while backing the truck up the hill in reverse. I reported this to the local toyota dealer in warren, ohio on tuesday, december 22, 2009. I am very concerned that this condition may cause serious injury or death to anyone who may find themselves behind the vehicle when it begins to roll.
As I slow down I feel a clunk in the transmission. A few seconds after I come to a complete stop, it feels as if someone bumps me in the rear, only there's no car behind me.. Also in the mornings the transmission will not change into 6th gear until I drive app. 1 mile .
2007 toyota tundra 6 speed transmission torque converter rumble strip and failure.
A friend and I were attempting to launch his jetski. I backed my truck down the boat ramp and my friend was on the jetski. My friend was having trouble getting the jetski to come off the trailer so, I put the truck into park and got out to shove the jetski off. As I got out I noticed the truck lunge and start to roll backwards. I attempted to reach my foot back in to hit the brake. By this time my shoes were wet and because of the position of my body, my foot slipped off of the brake pedal and smashed the gas pedal which caused truck to take off in reverse. As I was still halfway in and out of the truck the door drug me down the boat ramp and under the water with the truck. Luckily I was able to get free and had no serious injuries. The truck however was fully submerged and the jetski trailer was broken in the process. Note: the original transmission was changed out under a warranty claim at around 10,000 miles by the dealership.
I have a 2007 toyota tundra crewmax I feel a clunk in the transmission or rear end a few seconds after I come to a complete stop. It feels as if some other car has bumped me in the rear and there are no other vehicles around. On some occasions the thump is much worse than other times. This started several months ago and I thought it may have had something to do with a sudden stop I made when an animal crossed the road in front of me. I haven't had my dealer check this yet but I now realize others are having the same problem so I will get it to the dealer soon. I have approximately 26,000 miles and close to warranty expiration.
I feel a clunk in the transmission or rear end a few seconds after I come to a complete stop, it feels as if someone bumps me in the rear, only there's no car behind me. I complained about it at the dealer but they say they do not know how to fix it? Now the bump is getting even more pronounced. Also in the mornings the transmission will not change into 5th or 6th gear until I drive app. 1 mile. I am nearing 25,000 miles and would like these issues fixed before the expiration of my warranty.

My 2007 toyota tundra lunges forward very often. It does it when I'm coming to a stop. It will do it as I'm decelerating or even after I've come to a complete stop. I hit my wife's car in the rear bumper this week while I was following her. That is what has finally pushed me over the edge to make a complaint. Since I've done research on this problem it seems like everybody is running into the same issue with 2005 tundras and up. This needs to get fixed before somebody gets seriously injured.
Truck has a clunk and bump coming from the drive train.when you let the foot off the brake the drive shaft jerks. Issue is getting worse. Arbitration says that toyota has fixed the problem. Still has the problem.

2007 tundra slipping out of gear to allow vehicle to roll.
Esto es una pick up toyota tundra del 2007.estacione el vehiculo y empuje la palanca de la trasmision a parking y pense que estava en parquing, luego puse el suitch en off pero la palanca nunca callo en parquing devido a que una pieza de pasta que sirve de tapafalta en la palanca de cambios de la trasmision se rompio y atoro la palanca y se quedo en reversa. Lo que provoco que el vehiculo se presipitara por un barranco. Fue perdida total.por suerte no hubo muertos.
After parking the truck for about an hour, I went back into the truck . As I started the truck the 4-wheel lo light appeared on the dash with an indicator beep. The problem with this is that the truck was in 2-wheel drive and never engaged in any 4-wheel operation. At the point of this I tried to put the truck in reverse and it was not there it was neutral, so then I shifted into drive and that was neutral also, I repeated this 4 or 5 times in disbelief. At that point I put the vehicle in park and exited the vehicle not realizing that the vehicle would have no park. I then walked along side the truck and so it roll down my driveway and hit the garage. The truck only rolled about 20 feet approx, but caused about $5,000.00 in damage between the 2. I preceded to then call hoffman toyota and explain. The dealer was accommodating at first offering a loaner vehicle while they ran tests. The service manager told me that in all his time in the business he never heard of such a thing, saying only operator error could cause this. My frustration level was rising but remained calm. Along the way I was talking to toyota corp about my problem and had a case manager appointed to me. Toyota corp had sent a field tech to the dealer for further review. His test also showed no vehicle error found and that no related cases of transmissions coming out of park. He also indicated that this would only be possible from operator error. So I now had to take responsibility for my house garage and truck repair. After picking up the vehicle I had a friend ask me if I looked into the ntsb.gov website, and I said no, we then proceeded to the site and it took approx. 10 seconds to see a related occurrence with a 2007 tundra with 16,000 miles and happened twice to the individual. I feel very uncomfortable parking this truck thinking this could happen again, it is clear that there is some type of electronic malfunction and what causes this to happen at will is unclear.
