2007 Toyota Tundra

HELLO, TWO DAY AGO I WAS PULLING PUT OF MY CONDO COMPLEX WHEN I NOTICED A BURNING PLASTIC SMELL. AFTER ABOUT 20 SECONDS SMOKE AND VERY SMALL FLAMES STARTED TO POUR OUT OF THE DRIVERS DOOR PANEL WHERE THE SWITCHES ARE LOCATED. THERE WAS NO MAJOR FIRE DAMAGE BUT THE CAR WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE AND THE SWITCH THAT OPERATES THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOW MELTED DOWN. I FORTUNATELY HAD SOME TOOLS NEARBY SO I QUICKLY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY CABLES AS IT WAS STILL ARCING AND SPARKING. THE ONLY SWITCH THAT WORKS PROPERLY IS THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WINDOW. THE FOLLOWING DAY I TOLD MY CO WORKER ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. TODAY HE SHOWED ME THE AUTOBLOG.COM ARTICLE REGARDING THE STORY ABOUT TOYOTAS WINDOW SWITCHES CATCHING FIRE. HOW DO I GO ABOUT REPORTING THIS TO YOU GUYS OR SOMEONE ELSE. MY TRUCK IS A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA DOUBLE CAB 4.7 V8 2WD TRD. *TR

TOY. 2007 5.7 CREW-MAX 4+4 P2440 CODE CAME ON AND TRUCK WENT INTO SAFETY MODE .GREATLY REDUCED SPEED . 4 LO LT. COMES ON AS WELL AS ENGINE,TRACTION AND ANTI SLIP LTS. I CARRY A HAND-HELD CODE DETECTOR AND CLEAR THE CODE AS SOON AS IT COMES UP AND CONTINUOUSLY CLEAR IT AS I'M DRIVING. TOYOTA WANTED 3400.00 TO FIX THIS DEFECT AFTER I BOUGHT 3 NEW TUNDRAS FROM THEM EVERY 3 YEARS. THIS HAS GONE ON FOR 13 MO. 8 MO. INTO IT MY TRUCK STARTED DYING AND WOULD NOT START FOR SEVERAL MIN.WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AND WAS STRANDED IN MIDDLE OF ROAD MORE THAN ONCE. THIS WENT ON FOR 1 WEEK 2 DIFFERENT TIMES THAN IT STARTED RUNNING AGAIN WITH JUST THE P2440 CODE COMING UP ALL THE TIME AND SHUTTING ME DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY MANY PEOPLE INCLUDING MY BROTHER IN LAW WHO ALSO HAD A 2007 TUNDRA EX. CAB. THEY FIXED HIS BECAUSE HE WAS ONLY 1500 MILE OUT OF WARRANTY. WHEN MY TROUBLE STARTED I WAS AT 70,000+ MI. DEFECT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AMT. OF MILES,JUST TIME(AFTER 3 YRS.)AFTER 13 MO. STILL NO HELP FROM TOYOTA AND NO RECALL.

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? *TR

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.. *JB

TOYOTA TUNDRA 2007 W/ 4WD. VEHICLE WENT FROM NORMAL 2 WHEEL DRIVE INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE LOW WITHOUT WARNING, WITHOUT TOUCHING ANY CONTROLS. COULD NOT DRIVE FASTER THAN 30 MPH, ENGINE CHECK LIGHT CAME ON. TURNED INTO DEALER, THEY SAID IT WAS A COMPONENT IN THE ENGINE THAT FAILED. THE WARRANTY INSPECTOR CAME BY TODAY AND THE HISTORY DATA ON THE MEMORY HAD BEEN ERASED AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE. VEHICLE IS STILL IN THE SHOP. DEALER STATES IT IS DEFECTIVE BUT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. THE DEALER STATED AIR PUMP IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD FAILED. THE CONSUMER BELIEVE THE PROBLEM MAY BE THE ECU.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA TUNDRA WITH 4.7L THAT DOESN'T LIKE TO START ALL THE TIME. WHILE THIS ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE I BELIEVE YOU ARE LOOKING INTO THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONICS PROBLEM ASSOCIATED WITH THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION. AS A FORMER MECHANIC/CURRENT ELECTRICIAN/AS IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING I BELIEVE MY PROBLEM IS DEFINITELY ELECTRICAL IN NATURE. I'M NOT SURE IF IT IS RELATED BUT I FIGURED I WOULD SEND A MESSAGE AND GIVE YOU A HEADS UP. ALSO THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE AS ANOTHER GENTLEMAN IN TOWN HERE HAS THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. WE HAVE BOTH BEEN TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY STILL WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM. TODAY I AM SENDING MY PAPERWORK TO A LAW FIRM WHO SPECIALIZES IN THE PA LEMON LAW. LET ME KNOW IF I CAN BE OF ANY ASSISTANCE. THEY JUST DID THE RECALL ON MY TRUCK LAST WEEK AND I'M GOING ON A LONG TRIP TOMORROW SO WISH ME LUCK! LOL THANKS! *TR
