2005 TOYOTA TUNDRA Engine Problems

Suddenly unintended acceleration has happened multiple times with the brake depressed and the accelerator pedal not depressed.

AT SPEEDS ABOVE 50+ THE REAR END CONSTANTLY RUMBLES AND SHAKES THE WHOLE TRUCK. AND WHEN PRESSING THE BREAK IT DOES AS WELL. SEAT BELT LOCKS WHEN TRYING TO PUT IT ON. PARKING BRAKE DOESN'T WORK. WHINING AND SQUEAKY NOISE IN THE REAR END. CLUNKING NOISE AT LOWER SPEEDS. ENGINE LIGHT IS ON & WON'T GO OFF. TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR DOESN'T WORK. REAR END SEAL LEAK. DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FEELS LIKE IT'S GONNA FALL OUT. TRUCK IS WAY TOO LOUD AND EVERYTHING IS STOCK. AC/HEAT BEING ON MAKES LOUD NOISE.

2005 TOYOTA TUNDRA DOUBLE CAB. WHEN STATIONARY ON COLD START: VEHICLE PRODUCES A LOUD NOISE AND ADDITIONAL CARBON MONOXIDE/EXHAUST, CAUSING ADDITIONAL DANGER WHEN STARTING IN A GARAGE. WHEN IN MOTION: TRUCK OPERATES AS INTENDED UNTIL ACCELERATION IS ATTEMPTED, CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN WHEN MERGING ONTO HIGHWAYS, DRIVING UP AN INCLINE, OR ANY OTHER DRIVING SITUATION WHERE THE GAS APPLICATION IS NECESSARY. WHEN IN MOTION: VENTING AND INTERIOR AIR CONTROLS CANNOT BE USED BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF EXHAUST THAT WILL SPILL INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS WIDELY KNOWN TO THE TOYOTA COMMUNITY, AND TO DRIVERS OF TOYOTA TUNDRAS IN PARTICULAR. OF NOTE, THOUSANDS OF MESSAGES CAN BE EASILY ACCESSED IN THE TOYOTA MESSAGE BOARDS (TUNDRA TALK, TOYOTA NATION, TUNDRAS.COM, TUNDRA SOLUTIONS). IN ADDITION, THERE IS A SEPARATE COTTAGE INDUSTRY THAT HAS SPRUNG UP AS A RESULT, WHERE MANUFACTURERS ARE PRODUCING BYPASS KITS...

I OWN A 2005 TOYOTA TUNDRA WITH JUST 60,000 MILES. IN 2014 TOYOTA WAS ALLOWED TO PUT A BAND-AID ON A PROBLEM THAT NEEDED A TOURNIQUET - APPLYING A RUST CONVERTER COATING TO A FRAME THAT, BECAUSE OF THEIR FAILURE TO MANUFACTURER IT PROPERLY, DESERVED REPLACING. I WAS TOLD BY TOYOTA (CASE NUMBER [XXX]) THAT BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS OWNER TOOK THE BAND-AID THEY WERE NO LONGER LIABLE UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT FORCED THEM VIA FURTHER GOVERNMENT SAFETY RECALL ACTIONS TO DO MORE. MY HOPE IS BY WRITING THIS THAT THE GOVERNMENT CAN BE PROACTIVE AND SOLVE THIS SAFETY CONCERN BEFORE THEY HAVE TO COLLECT ENOUGH DEATH AND ACCIDENT STATISTICS TO TAKE NOTICE OF THIS ISSUE. NOT ONLY THAT, I SEE THAT TOYOTA IS BEING OFFERED THE SAME BAND-AID SOLUTION ON A NUMBER OF NEW MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE - PROVING THAT THEY DIDN'T LEARN ANY LESSON JUST HOW THEY CAN...

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SECONDARY AIR INTAKE THIS WAS A RECALL IN 2007-10 YEARS BUT IS ALSO BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM IN EARLIER MODELS. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR.

SECONDARY INJECTION PUMP TRIGGER A LIMP MODE WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY. TOYOTA HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON ALL VEHICLE EXCEPT THE 2005, 2006, 2007 WHICH HAVE THE EXACT SAME AIR PUMPS INSTALLED. THIS REPAIR IS COSTING TOYOTA OWNERS IN EXCESS OF $3,000.00 WITH VEHICLES HAVING HAVING LESS THE 100K MILES. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN EMISSION ISSUE THAT TOYOTA SHOULD ADDRESS, THE U.S. HAS MADE VW RESPONSIBLE FOR THERE SHORTCOMINGS I THINK TOYOTA SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.

TOYOTA HAS EXTENDED ITS WARRANTY FOR THE AIR INJECTION PUMP AND AIR SWITCHING VALVES ON 2007-2010 TUNDRAS. THE EXTENSION IS FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES FROM FIRST USE. I HAVE A 2005 TUNDRA THAT HAS A FAILING AIR INJECTION SYSTEM. I AM WITHIN THE MILEAGE RANGE OF FIRST USE . THE TRUCK HAS THE SAME AIR INJECTION SYSTEM AS THE TUNDRAS WITHIN THE WARRANTY EXTENSION, BUT TOYOTA REFUSES TO HONOR THE WARRANTY EXTENSION ON MY TRUCK. THIS IS A $4000 FIX AND THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THE CURRENT STATE. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE TRUCK LOST POWER. THE ENGINE REVVED LIKE IT WAS TRYING TO GO, BUT HAD NO MORE FORWARD MOMENTUM. THE SPEED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WAS 50MPH. HOOKED UP THE COMPUTER AND THE ERROR CODE READ THAT IT IS THE AIR SWITCHING VALVE. ERROR CODES P-1442, SWITCHING VALVES ARE STUCK CLOSED, #2 IN BANK 1 AND #2 IN BANK 2 OF THE SECONDARY AIR INSPECTION SYSTEM. SAME ISSUE ON 2007-10 TUNDRA AND WAS RECALLED DUE TO DEFECT. MY TRUCK HAS THE SAME ISSUE, HAS UNDER 150,000 MILES, AND HAS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAINED. TOLD BY TOYOTA THAT IT IS NOT A RECALL AT THIS TIME AND IF THERE IS ONE IN THE FUTURE, THEY WILL REIMBURSE US OUR COSTS. DRIVING DOWN A TWO LANE HIGHWAY WITH 18 WHEELERS BEHIND YOU AND LOSING POWER, GOING 65-70MPH, IS GOING TO CAUSE A WRECK. I...

LOSS OF POWER DEALER SAID I NEED A SECONDARY SMOG PUMP AND CHECK VALVES AT A COST OF 2158.90 TRUCK HAS ONLY 38000 MILES FIND OUT IF MY INFO IS CORRECT SAME PROBLEM ON 2007 THRU 2010 AND TOYOTA DID EXTEND THERE WARRANTY. LOSS OF POWER A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

DASH LIGHT "CHECK ENGINE" CAME ON AND WHEN THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS THIS EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM LISTED ABOVE ( SECONDARY AIR INJECTION SYSTEM SWITCHING VALVE NO. 2 BANK 1 AND BANK 2) THAT WOULD COST OVER $3,000 I WENT ONLINE AND SAW MANY TUNDRAS AND SEQUOIAS WITH EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THE 2007 TO 2009 TUNDRAS WITH THE EXACT PART NUMBERS WERE WARRANTED FOR 10 YEARS, IT TELLS ME THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, SO WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL? *TR
