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.

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 . This should be recalled, instead it's appropriate $4000 repair. It is so common bypass units are available on ebay for $200.

This is all the time, doesn't matter stopped, going, high speed, low speed.

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…

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…
