2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

THE VSC IT IS BLINKIN THE ACELERATOR DONT RESPOND THE TRANSMITION VIVRATION WHEN PUSH PEDAL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA. AFTER REPLACING THE TIRES ON THE VEHICLE, THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO COMPLETELY ALIGN THE WHEELS DUE TO SEVERE RUSTING AND CORROSION OF THE SUSPENSION AND SUBFRAME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000. UPDATED 0824/17*LJ *CN

MAJOR BED ROT AT MOUNTING BRACKETS FOR BED FRAME TOYOTA HAS A RECALL FOR THIS UNDER SOME VIN RANGES AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD AT FIRST THAT MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED , THEN I WAS TOLD I WAS OUT BY MILEAGE, THEN I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOT BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THE LAST TIME I QUESTION THIS PROBLEM I WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE I DIDN'T SERVICE MY TUNDRA AT THERE DEALER SHIP THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. I AM A HONDA MASTER TECH AND TAKE CARE OF MY TRUCK BETTER THEN MOST PEOPLE DO THERE OWN CARS

DRIVE BELT TENSIONER DEFECTIVE CAUSES LOSS OF STEERING FAILED AT 57,000 MILES HAD BELT REPLACED 3 TIMES.

MY 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA FUEL TANK STRAP RUSTED THROUGH AND THE FUEL TANK CAME LOOSE AND PARTIALLY FELL OUT BUT WAS HELD IN BY THE FILL HOSE AND EVAP HOSES. THE SKID PLATE THAT IS MOUNTED TO THE STRAP BROKE COMPLETELY OFF AND WAS FOUND ON THE HIGHWAY. I FIND THIS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS IF IT HAD BEEN THE FRONT STRAP IT COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. I KNOW RUST CAN BE AN ISSUE BUT CERTAINLY NOT SOMETHING I HAVE BEEN WORRIED ABOUT ON A 9 YEAR OLD TRUCK. I AM NOT EXACTLY SURE WHEN THE STRAP BROKE AS I SAW IT HANGING AFTER WORK ON MY WAY TO THE TRUCK.

I OWN A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA AND WHILE STATIONARY IN MY GARAGE I NOTICED BUBBLING UNDER MY SPRAY IN BEDLINER WHERE THE BED CONTACTS THE FRAME CROSS RAILS FRONT AND BACK. I THEN CRAWLED UNDER THE TRUCK BED AND SAW A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF RUST ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE BED. I TOOK IT FORT'S TOYOTA OF PEKIN AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP ME AND THAT I COULD CALL TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD HELP SINCE I DIDN'T NOTICE IT TILL AFTER WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED EVEN THOUGH I'VE HAD EVERY SERVICE DONE AT THEIR PLACE SINCE NEW. YOU WOULD THINK THE 27 POINT INSPECTION THEY PERFORMED EVERY TIME WOULD HAVE CAUGHT IT BEFORE WARRANTY EXPIRED SINCE THEY HAD A TSB ON THE RUST THROUGH PROBLEM.

AIR BAG LIGHT SHOWED AIR BAG WAS TURNED OFF, TOOK VEHICLE TO MERCED CA TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE PROBLEM, WAS ADVISED THAT COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMED. IT COST 130.00. DEALER COULD NOT EXPLANE WHY VEHICLE NEEDED PROGRAMING OR WHEN IT COULD NEED IT AGAIN. VERY CONCERNED!!!!! VEHICLE PARKED AT MY HOME, IN A.M. WHEN I WENT TO START VEHICLE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, NO REASON THAT I KNOW OF.

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 SERVICE BULLETIN CIRCULATING THEIR DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS DATING BACK TO NOVEMBER 28, 2007 WHEN THIS ISSUE WAS FIRST DISCOVERED. THE BULLETIN IS NAMED TC017-07. ALSO UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS POSTS ABOUT THIS CODE AND THE EXACT ISSUES MY VEHICLE SUFFERS FROM ON MULTIPLE TOYOTA TUNDRA MESSAGE AND INTERNET CHAT GROUPS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH COULD EASILY CAUSE LOSS OF LIFE OR PROPERTY IF THESE VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE ARE SUDDENLY PRONE TO THE VSC AND TRANSMISSION ACTING ABNORMALLY. THIS ISSUE FOR ME CAME UP VERY SUDDENLY WITH NO PRIOR WARNING AS THE DASH LIGHTS CAME IN WHILE DRIVING. I WILL BE ASKING TOTOTA TO FIX THIS ISSUE AT THEIR COST WITH THE REMEDY THEY DESCRIBE IN THEIR SERVICE BULLETIN. THE REMEDY THEY RECOMMEND IS TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AND REPROGRAM THE ECM.

I HAD MY 2007 57,800 MILE TUNDRA INSPECTED AT MY TOYOTA DEALER WHEN I WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRAME/UNDER VEHICLE IS "VERY RUSTY". UPON INSPECTION BY MYSELF THE ENTIRE FRAME IS RUSTING AND FLAKING OFF. THE SERVICE TECH PLAYED STUPID AND REFERRED ME TO CORPORATE(800-331-4331). SHE ALSO SAID IT PASSED INSPECTION AND THERE ARE NO HOLES IN THE FRAME. I GUESS THAT MAKES IT ALL OK. CORPORATE INFORMED ME THAT MY TRUCK HAS NO "WARRANTY SERVICE ENHANCEMENTS" AT THIS TIME. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT CAN OFFER ME NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WITH THIS ISSUE, AT THIS TIME. I SHOULD NOT HAVE SEVERE RUST ISSUES WITH A GARAGE KEPT 2007 TUNDRA(OR ANY VEHICLE) AT 57,800 MILES THAT I PURCHASED NEW. I SUSPECT THE VEHICLE WILL HAVE SAFETY ISSUES WITHIN THE NEXT 2 YEARS DUE TO THE SEVERE RUSTING OF THE FRAME.

MY TOYOTA TUNDRA LEAF SPRINGS BROKE ON BOTH SIDES I DONT KNOW WHEN IT HAPPENED BUT WHEN I NOTICED IT . IT WAS RUBBING MY TIRES COULD OF PUNTCHER MY TIRES AND CAUSED ME TO WRECK. HAVE LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND SEVERAL PEOPLE HAS BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM . THESE VEHICLES NEED RECALLED THIS IS VERY UNSAFE
