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.
