| After the dealer completed the accelerator recall, my truck now has a slight stall when taking off and if there is any roughness in driving surface, the truck does this lurching/acceleration at each bump. it's almost like when they reprogrammed the accelerator, they made it too sensitive. i wasn't having a problem with the pedal prior to their fix but they forced me to have the repair done. | |||

| Intermittent fuel pump in 2007 toyota tundra 4.7l v8. engine would stop running randomly, first at low speed and then eventually at highway speeds (75 mph). very dangerous! fuel pump replaced after 30 days of stonewalling to include the 'fix' of keeping the gas tank at least 1/4 full. never detected by the computer; no error codes ever displayed. similar cases reported on the web with similar responses by toyota reported. why isn't this being reported in the media? *tr | |||

| Referring to the january 21, 2010 toyota recall of certain late model vehicles due to a accelerator pedal ... i am the original owner of a 2007 toyota tundra with approximately 41k miles. i have experienced vehicle behavior consistent with that resulting from a stuck accelerator ... both in forward and reverse ... on at least three occasions. after reading of toyota's recall, i contacted the phone number on toyota's web site and their representative denied that there was a recall. another toyota representative was aware of the recall and provided the name of a local dealer ... their service manager also denied that there was a recall even when i read the recall notice from the toyota's web site! she even tried to convince me that i have a mechanical problem and would have to pay to have my vehicle fixed! this lack of internal communication is unacceptable! *tr | |||

| 2007 toyota tundra. consumer writes in regards to air injection system pump malfunction. *smd 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. | |||

| 2007 toyota tundra, i was taking my tundra in for an oil change and the check engine light came on and i started losing power on my truck i had them check it. toyota came back and said that fuel vapor switching valve was stuck closed, i took it to another repair shop for a second opinion they found that a secondary injection pump was stuck open, they suggested i take it back to toyota for clarification. toyota's second diagnosis was they found both air injection pumps were corroded and needed to be replaced for $2100.00. this is a design flaw the dealer called toyota and said they would pay $600.00 but i had to pay for the rest. this is a design flaw that toyota has all but admitted to but won't really do anything to fix it. they should be help responsible for the whole amount. i was told they won't because my truck has 110,00 miles on it. mileage has nothing to do with this issue its a design issue. | |||
