Owner-Reported Issues (20 of 389)
Structure →6 issues
Your fuel tank is hanging abnormally low and scraping against the pavement on bumpy roads. The brackets holding your brake and fuel lines are severely rusted, and the subframe has rust damage extensive enough that a mechanic determined the vehicle isn't safe to drive. Fixing this will likely require replacing the entire subframe and repairing or replacing the corroded brackets and fuel tank mounting hardware.

Your truck's undercoating wasn't applied properly, allowing the frame to rust extensively. This rust damage is serious because it could cause the fuel tank to fall off the vehicle, creating a safety hazard. The fix will likely involve professional frame inspection, rust treatment, and possibly fuel tank support reinforcement or replacement.

Your truck's frame is rusting excessively due to a known safety recall that Toyota issued. The previous owner never had the recall repair done, and now the dealership is refusing to fix it because they claim the recall has expired. This rusted frame is causing steering problems and affecting your vehicle's control and safety, and it failed your New York State inspection.

Your gas tank cover plate is rusting and deteriorating, which could allow the tank to fall out from under your vehicle. This creates a fire hazard because a loose tank near hot exhaust components could ignite fuel, and continued rust could damage the tank itself and increase fire risk. The fix will likely involve replacing the rusted cover plate and inspecting the gas tank for any damage.

Your truck's frame has developed significant rust damage, including large holes in the frame rails and corroded crossmembers, making the vehicle unsafe to drive. You're concerned about a potential recall that may have expired before you were aware of it. Addressing this issue will likely require professional frame repair or replacement, which is a major structural repair.

While parking your 2007 Toyota Tundra, you heard a loud noise and found that the fuel tank strap and bolt had cracked and broken off. You also noticed flaking material under the vehicle when you first bought it in May 2024, but the dealer couldn't help. Your truck had an anti-corrosion spray treatment applied to the suspension in March 2019 as part of a recall repair. The fuel tank strap failure will likely require replacing the damaged strap and bolt with new hardware.

Power Train →5 issues
Your truck's transmission intermittently fails to shift into 5th or 6th gear. Turning the engine off and back on temporarily fixes the problem, but it returns after some driving. This could be either a software glitch or a mechanical transmission issue that needs diagnosis.

All of the support bearings in your driveshaft have failed and need to be replaced. This is a powertrain component that helps transfer power from your transmission to your wheels, so a complete failure could affect your truck's ability to drive properly.

Your truck shudders roughly when driving between 30-50 mph, and the shaking gets worse when you brake — the rear end shakes so much it feels like it might skid. The problem improves temporarily when you speed up or turn the vehicle off and restart it. Toyota issued a service bulletin to fix this issue, but your vehicle's VIN wasn't included in the original recall. The fix will likely involve inspecting and servicing your transmission components, possibly including fluid replacement or internal adjustments.

Your truck jerks and makes a popping sound from underneath when you try to accelerate from a stop, even though no warning lights appear. A mechanic found that the yoke (the connector piece) has separated from your driveshaft. This same part failed once before on your truck about 5 years ago. Fixing this typically involves replacing or repairing the driveshaft assembly and yoke to reconnect the power transfer from engine to wheels.

Your transmission shifts roughly when you release and reapply the accelerator, and it jumps or lurches as if downshifting even when you're stopped. These issues started when you first bought the vehicle. While you reported it, you were told this was normal behavior for your truck. A transmission fluid change, filter replacement, or transmission servicing may be needed to smooth out these shifts.

Unknown Or Other →2 issues
Your truck's frame has developed significant rust with holes 10mm or larger, compromising the vehicle's structural integrity. The rust damage started years ago and went unnoticed until after Toyota's warranty extension program ended in January 2019. You're requesting that Toyota convert this voluntary warranty program into a mandatory recall to cover all affected vehicles, as this poses a serious safety risk.

Your 2007 Tundra's frame has developed rust and holes, which is a known issue affecting many Tundras from this generation. The frame deteriorated quickly after you moved from Florida to New York, and Toyota applied multiple coatings as a temporary fix rather than addressing the underlying problem. Frame repairs or replacement will likely be necessary to restore structural integrity.

Vehicle Speed Control →1 issue
Your 2007 Tundra's speed control system accelerated the vehicle on its own while your wife was leaving the driveway, even though this system had been recalled and serviced by the dealer. Your wife lost control and hit multiple trees at 42 mph, causing the airbags to deploy and resulting in a head injury and three compressed vertebrae in her spine. The dealer and Toyota have not offered assistance to repair or investigate the problem.

Electrical System →1 issue
You discovered that your 2007 Toyota Tundra's actual mileage doesn't match what was recorded on the title. When you bought the truck as a private sale, the odometer showed around 145,000 miles, but a Carfax report later revealed the title documented approximately 330,000 miles back in 2018—suggesting the odometer may have been rolled back. This is a serious issue that affects the vehicle's true value and history.

Wheels →1 issue
Your 2007 Tundra has Enkei 18-inch wheels that are subject to a recall (GST002) issued by Gulf States Toyota. The dealership has tried to contact Gulf States Toyota multiple times since August 21, 2025 to get replacement wheels, but hasn't received a response. Your wheels need to be replaced as part of this recall, but the supplier hasn't taken action to provide the replacement parts.

Fuel System, Gasoline →1 issue
Your truck may lose power when you press the accelerator pedal, especially when driving uphill or at highway speeds, and your check engine light may come on. A dealer diagnosed this as a failure in the air injection pump and air injection switching valves, which help control emissions. Fixing this will likely require replacing the failed air injection pump and switching valve components.
Parts you may need:

Power Train,vehicle Speed Control,engine →1 issue
Your check engine light came on and your truck's acceleration dropped significantly—it won't go faster than 30 mph or rev above 1800-2000 rpm. You've already replaced the radiator, air injection module, and changed the oil, and while the check engine light is gone, the speed and rpm limitation persists. The issue may require diagnostic scanning to identify remaining engine or transmission problems causing the speed limiter.
Parts you may need:

Steering,suspension,unknown Or Other →1 issue
Your truck failed Pennsylvania state inspection because the front shock mounts are broken and the frame has severe rust/corrosion damage. These issues need to be addressed to pass inspection and maintain safe steering and suspension function. Repairs will likely involve replacing the shock mounts and addressing the frame corrosion, which may require welding or frame repair.
Parts you may need:
As an Amazon Associate, MyCarTSB earns from qualifying purchases.
Fuel/propulsion System →1 issue
Your check engine light and other warning lights came on while driving, causing your truck to suddenly lose power while merging onto a freeway—a dangerous situation that forced other drivers to swerve to avoid you. Toyota diagnosed the air injection pump and air control valve as needing replacement at a cost of nearly $4,000, though an independent mechanic confirmed the diagnosis but quoted only $2,000 for the repair. Your extended warranty claim was denied despite these parts not appearing on the exclusion list, and the vehicle also has an emission system issue that will cause it to fail smog testing. The repair will involve replacing the air injection pump and air control valve, and addressing the emission system problem.
