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 .

My check engine light has come on. As well as the lights stating the vehicle stability control and traction control systems have been disabled. The transmission will not shift out of third gear and the vsc being off is causing an unsafe driving condition due to slipping tires around corners at normal speeds. Upon checking the engine code p2714 and p0751 i have come to find out there is an internal toyota technical…

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…

Front differential went out at 48k miles. It cost me $2000 to replace. I read various blogs and this is a common problem on many tundras built between 2007-2013. I don't drive my truck very often and i treat it very gently. This was a huge expense bill for anybody to absorb. *tr

Recently while driving my 2007 toyota tundra, my driveshaft fell out of the slip yoke at the front of the truck behind the transmission. After a shuttering of the truck i finally stopped.

When making turns there was a grinding/scrapping noise from rear wheel area. Dealer confirmed worn rear wheel bearings requiring a toyota update kit to better prevent repeat failure. If multiple parts needed updated perhaps original items were not properly designed? *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…

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…

Now with 58,000 it happens on a regular basis, say, every 50 miles or so. I keep a…
