Vsc, traction control and check engine lights came on. vehicle running rough and steering tight while driving on street. was able to get vehicle back to residence. feels unsafe to drive. will be contacting toyota dealer for repair.
Secondary injection pump is making a loud vacuum type of noise. our own online research leads us to believe that the bearings are going bad in the pump. this noise is very loud when the engine is started. if you quickly tap the gas pedal, the noise goes away for a short period of time. the noise will usually come back on for about another 10-20 seconds and it will go off on it's own. it seems that once the engine has been on for about 30 seconds total, the loud vacuum noise goes away on its own. this loud vacuum noise occurs when the vehicle is in park and also while driving it. in our research online, it seems that this exact problem is why toyota issued reimbursement offers ("in response to reports of air induction pump assemblies and/or air injection switching valves issues on their 2007-2010 tundra and 2008-2010 sequoia models, toyota has decided to increase its warranty on these parts and is even offering a reimbursement if you already had this issue fixed. this is a great relief for owners since it was an such an expensive fix as we reported in april, 2010, tundra and sequoia $4000 air injection system problem)"!! why did the toyota motor corp. leave the 2007 sequoia's off of this reimbursement list, when they also clearly have this same secondary injection pump problem as all the vehicles involved in that particular reimbursement offer?! why has toyota motor corp. been able to get by with this? i've seen online that tons of people have complained about this problem. when this sort of very expensive problem occurs, the government should just mandate that a recall be done. because of course, toyota tried to re-nig and not actually reimburse people for this repair. that is not protecting us customers that are now buying these used vehicles that had these problems and previous owners never had it fixed!
Check engine comes on vsc light comes on trac lights come on. they come on when engine is started and stays on. error codes read p2440 secondary air injection system switching valve stuck open bank 1
Check engine light on, vsc and trac lights on - truck enters limp mode due to faulty secondary air intake system for emissions system. this is a known issue for sequoias and tundras, however not yet covered for the 2007 model year! dealer part costs $1,700. unless toyota recieves enough case problems for 2007 year, they will not extend warranty for parts, which they have done for all other affected years.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota sequoia. while driving various speeds, the check engine, trac off, and vsc trac warning indicators illuminated continuously. the vehicle was taken to a dealer where the secondary air intake pump needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 136,000.
I was told i need a 2nd air inception flow because it is bad. my ball joints are also needing to be replaced as they have been bad and its dangerous, the plastic handle for hatch broke, the arm for hatch broke, suspension swing arm bad, tramsmission misses first gear on and off. i bought this car because i wanted something i wouldn't have issues with and i have had plenty of issues since i purchased it especially with front end. once in a while the engine reffs up high and i'm just sitting there with foot on the break.
The secondary injection system has failed. toyota is aware of this defect and has extended the warranty for this issue on 2008-2010 sequoia. the 2007 has the same engine and same defective parts but toyota will not cover the replacement. hey should cover all vehicles with the same engine types because they are all going to have the same issue! this repair can cost the consumer up to $3600. the vehicle makes a loud sound upon starting and the trac and abs light and check engine light appears. my vehicle is at the dealer but in my opinion toyota should repair these vehicle free of charge especially if this is a known issue.
The secondary air injection pump has gone out. this particular component has a know defect issue with toyota. toyota extended the warranty on 2008-2010 sequoias with the exact same engine as my 2007 but they will not cover my vehicle. if they know there is an issue and they are will to extend the warranty of some vehicles, they should cover all vehicles with the same engine types because they are all going to have the same issue! this repair can cost the consumer up to $3600. this is a scam in my opinion.
The secondary injection system has failed at 125k miles. toyota is a aware of this defect and has extended the warranty for this issue on 2008-2010 sequoia. the 2007 has the same engine and same defective parts but toyota will not cover the replacement. this can cost the customer upwards of 3k to fix. customer satisfaction? not so much. guess i'll put the money into another vehicle but not a toyota.
I was driving on the highway. suddenly my truck began vibrating harshly. soon after, the truck stalled out. i had no braking or steering assist at all. the truck wouldn't start so i couldn't pull off to the side of the road. being stuck in the middle of a busy highway was a frightening experiment. i had it towed to a local independent shop. the service technician found a broken intake valve spring. this is a costly repair for a truck with only 68,000 miles on it. *tr
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota sequoia. the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the traction control and engine warning lights illuminated. the vehicle was not inspected by a dealer or an independent mechanic. the manufacturer was contacted and offered no assistance. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure and current mileages were approximately 62,000.*tr
While the vehicle was traveling at about 40 mph it suddenly loses engine power and the vehicle becomes hard to steer. both the vsc off and trac off lights came on. i had to pull to the side and the car died completely. i turned off the car but could not turn it on immediately. i waited for about 5 minutes and tried again and it started up fine, but after i drove for less than half mile the same issue happened again. it happened a total of 6 times within a couple of miles. since then it's been happening every few days. took it to my mechanic but they could not pull a code. searching online it seems this is a common problem that happened to many 1st generation sequoias. *tr
