Check engine light came on and after scanning Code P2445 'Secondary Air Injection Pump Stuck Off' was the error. Vehicle went into lower power mode, which is very unsafe for highway driving. The Secondary Air Injection Pump issues have plagued Toyota V8's for many years and I had hoped they'd fixed the issue by the 2nd Generation Tundras, I guess not. Dealer replaced the Secondary Air Injection Pump for about $850 and noted that there was moisture in the pump, which caused it to short out - very similar to issues reported by other Toyota V8 owners. Toyota has a 10 year warranty on the Secondary Air Injection Pumps for 2007-2010 Tundras and 2008-2010 Sequoia models - but no other years/models. It's time that Toyota recall these vehicles and fix them properly, or extend the warranty to all years/models.

VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH HAVING A LEFT REAR SPEED SENSOR AND SPEED SENSOR WIRE WAS BROKEN DUE TO A PIECE OF PLASTIC PART CAME SEPARATED FROM THE WHEEL. HAVE ALL KINDS OF LIGHTS COME ON DASHBOARD AND FLASH ON AND OFF, UNTIL SENSOR IS REPLACED WITH NEW AT AN ASTRONOMICAL RATE, WHICH CANNOT BE REPLACED AT THIS TIME. FEEL THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE, AS THE WIRE IS JUST HANGING THERE, ATTACHED TO THE WHEEL UNDERNEATH AND SHOULD BE FIXED AND ATTACHED SOMEWHERE ELSE, WHERE IT IS NOT LESS LIKELY TO BE PULLED OR DISRUPTIVE ON THE FUTURE, BY OTHER VEHICLES LIKE MINE IS. SHOULD BE ON A RECALL LIST AS I DO NOT KNOW IF OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD JUST BLINK OFF/ON CONTINUOUSLY, EVEN WHEN IT STARTS AND FROM THE TIME THE VEHICLE STOPS. CANNOT SEE THE SPEED ON THE DASHBOARD WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
