2007 TOYOTA SEQUOIA

Tail gate handle broke (second time). dealer fixed the first time. If I have a flat tire, I can't get to the spare tire.

Turned into a laundromat parking lot and my balljoint snapped and my truck was sitting on the ground on the driver side front. Bent my fender and door also.

Turned into a laundromat parking lot and my balljoint snapped and my truck was sitting on the ground on the driver side front. Bent my fender and door also.

The frame of the vehicle is rusting away despite being sprayed with rust inhibitor during the frame recall. The vehicle was considered unsafe to drive due to large holes in the frame just 3 years after being sprayed by Toyota.

The rear gate door or Deck lid will not open. with either key, or any other method. Every time this occurs, I have to take to the body shop to open and pay $200 for them to open it. They have to climb to the back, dismantle the rear door panels from the inside and undo some mechanisms to open it finally. The shop stated that they have had this problem with these Sequoias many times.

Rear hatch/latch. I purchased my 2007 Sequoia lightly used in 2013. Luckily I purchased a 3 year extended warranty also. Within a year my rear hatch broke for the 1st time, I was unable to open the rear gate, my warranty covered the parts & Labor, within a year it broke again, this time the door would not latch closed, it freely opened & would or could not be secured. This happened while out of town (Fairbanks, AK. In Feb. -40 degrees) luckily the dealership had the parts & was able to fix it quickly. Still covered by my extended warranty. That dealership told me about the consistent problem & I was told about the cheap parts, but also a poor design as far as weather & grime able to reach the components & cause corrosion quickly. It broke one more time before my warranty expired (#3) again unable to open the rear gate. That repair didn’t even last 3 months, But the warranty was expired & I had a very reliable mechanic replace it this time (#4). Much cheaper than what Toyota wanted to charge me. He did a little weather preventative repair and I actually got nearly 2 years on that repair. He also said it was a terrible design flaw on the rear hatch, & there was significant corrosion on many other parts in the rear gate. He cleaned it up as well as possible. When it broke the 5th time, I was furious, & couldn’t see the point of the $750.00+ repair (Alaska is more $$), again was broken in the unable to open position. So I used the window & crawling over the seats method for over a year, until my window started making horrible noise when opening. I made an appointment with Toyota in Anchorage, AK to repair it this time as I had a recall taken care of at the same time. The only visible corrosion on the vehicle was around the latch, the window does not work properly, & you hear parts rattling when you open & close the gate now. I realize the open gate break is not common, But that was a horribly dangerous situation, recall is needed immediately for safety & reputation

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Sequoia. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the contact noticed that the rear subframe was fractured. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was determined that the rear subframe needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 138,000.

2007 Toyota Sequoia frame completely deteriorated and rusted through. I discovered this when brining my vehicle in for the Toyota Airbag Recall when the technician brought this safety issue to my attention. Previous driving had been extremely unstable and buckled when I was on the highway. Since discovering the frame issue, I stopped driving the vehicle. I believe this is a safety issue caused by a defective frame that Toyota is aware of and had issue a past recall for. The Toyota dealer has made a video of the deteriorated frame and has commented that the vehicle is a safety issue.

Doors not locking with key fob. Have to manually lock all doors by hand. Sometimes the key fob arms the security and sometimes it doesn’t. I’ve replaced the key fob and tried to program new fob but cannot program, hooked up a scanner to run for codes and 1 showed a (B1242 - wireless door lock tuner circuit)

Purchased this vehicle with a clear title and then noticed it has frame rot.

Plan road trip Had Vehicle thoroughly. Inspected only to find that the frame was cracked on goth side and all brake lines are corroded. Called several places to get help with this matter, only to have no help at all. Spoke to many people final communication was with [XXX] in Tennessee who admitted the prior owner was notified as to the issue I have owned this vehicle for 6 yrs and could not understand why the Prior owner was notified and not I. I find that due to not notifying the correct owner they should allow me to have this issue taken care of, but they are not cooperating with me I would like to take this matter further and have them accountable for this safety issue and neglect as to contacting the existing owner. reaching out for help Sincerely [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Selling Old tires as if they were new On May 1st 2023, I took my 2007 Toyota Sequoia to Toyota of Vero Beach to be serviced. They advised me that my 2 Goodyear tires were dry rotting and cracking. The tires were purchased in 5/14/2019. The odometer read 181923 the mileage when they were inspected by Toyota was 205140 a difference of 23,217 miles and show no wear. I called the mechanic stated I purchased the tires in 2010, how could they be dry rotting and cracking. The mechanic looked up the serial number and determined they were made in 2015 and were 8 years old. The tires are P265/65R17 110S S2 WRL SR-A TL MFG. No. M7AHEXWR2316 and M7AHEXWR2315. I can’t understand how you can sell me tires that are 5 years old and pass them off as new. That is not what I bargained for! This is unconscionable and dangerous since this vehicle is used to tow a heavy boat.

car is not recalled yet the same model year is recalled from 2007, this problem effects my car as well as cars made earlier in the year. The suspension is unstable and joints are worn in many places ball joints and other steering effecting joints. The car makes sudden side movements like the wheel is about to fall off or the tire fell off the time but the tires are properly inflated. Repair estimated are atleast $600 possibly $1200 as it is worn in 2 places The problem is on the passenger side front. The car has 114000 miles. There is no recall on this car but other Sequoias made the same year are recalled This is pretty obvious the problem was in the design and not the date of manufacture.

Frame is completely rusted. Almost the body is about to detach from the frame. A very safety issue. This vehicle was never taken to Toyota for rusted frame at the time of the recall. Toyota must resolve this issue because it's safety matter as the frame can separate from the body at any time.

CODE P2440 CAN DAIRY AIR INJECTION SYSTEM SWITCHING VALVE STUCK OPEN BANK 1. VEHICLE HAS 71,000 MILES ON IT BEEN INFORMED THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AND THE TOYOTA SHOULD'VE ISSUED A RECALL. CAUSES HIGH RPM START AND LOSS OF POWER ACCELERATION.

VSC, TRACTION CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS RANDOMLY COME ON AND VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOSES ACCELERATION AND RUNS ROUGH. I TRIED PUTTING ON NEW GAS CAP TO NO AVAIL. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED GOING UP A HILL WHEN THE LIGHTS SUDDENLY CAME ON AND I LOST POWER. IT HAS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AS WELL LEAVING ME UNABLE TO SAFELY ACCELERATE .

EXTENSIVE FRAME ROT. THERE IS A HOLE IN THE FRAME AT THE LOCATION OF A BODY MOUNT.

AS IN NHTSA COMPLAINT ID # 11316132, MY 2007 TOYOTA SEQUOIA BEGAN MAKING A LOUD VACUUM NOISE UPON COLD START FOR APPROX 1 MIN IN MID TO LATE FEBRUARY 2020. WITHIN ABOUT 1 WEEK, THE NOISE CONTINUED AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AS WELL AS VSC AND VSC TRAC LIGHTS CAME ON. UPON TAKING MY VEHICLE TO LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY SECONDARY AIR INJECTION PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AS A RESULT OF CODES P1445 AND TSB 0230 12. THE ISSUE IS NOW AFFECTING MY ACCELERATION. I'M NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCELERATE WHEN QUICK SPEED IS NECESSARY FOR FREEWAY ENTRY. I'M ALSO UNABLE TO GO ABOVE 65MPH. MY CAR MUST BE FIXED IN ORDER TO PASS SMOG, HOWEVER VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS SMOG IN CA WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. UPON RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT TOYOTA WAS REIMBURSING CUSTOMERS FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR MODELS BETWEEN 2008 AND 2010, BUT NOT FOR 2007. THIS SEEMS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM, AS I'VE FOUND THERE IN SEVERAL ONLINE TOYOTA FORUMS THAT THERE IS ACTUALLY A BYPASS KIT FOR SALE FOR A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS THAT ALLOWS THE SECONDARY AIR INJECTION PUMP TO BE BYPASSED. THAT IS MUCH MORE COST EFFECTIVE THAN THE ACTUAL REPAIR WHICH IS ALMOST $2,500. I CALLED TOYOTA TO NOTIFY THEM OF THE ISSUE AND INQUIRE AS TO WHETHER THEY WOULD EXTEND THE PROGRAM FOR 2008 - 2010 TO 2007 AND AT THIS TIME THEY WILL NOT. FILING A COMPLAINT IN ORDER TO ELEVATE THE ISSUE AND HELP TOYOTA UNDERSTAND THEY NEED TO EXTEND THE PROGRAM OF AN ALREADY IDENTIFIED ISSUE THAT IS AFFECTING MORE THAN THE YEARS IN EXISTING SCOPE.

SECONDARY AIR INJECTION PUMP MAKES A LOUD VACUUM NOISE ON STARTUP AS IN NHTSA ID# 11064285. FOUR RELATED CODES GENERATED ON MY VEHICLE AND, NOW, AS A RESULT ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. ALSO IMPACTS ACCELERATION ON FREEWAY WHEN QUICK SPEED IS NECESSARY ON ENTRY. CAR STRUGGLES TO GET POWER TO ACCELERATE AND WILL NOT GO OVER 65 MPH FOR PASSING. CAR MUST BE FIXED TO PASS A CA SMOG CHECK AND WILL NOT PASS WITH AN ENGINE LIGHT. TOYOTA IS REIMBURSING SOME, BUT NOT ALL MODELS IMPACTED BY THIS KNOWN ISSUE. REPAIRING THIS ISSUE WITH THE AIR INDUCTION PUMP COSTS OVER $2000. TOYOTA HAS A PROGRAM FOR 2008-2010 SEQUOIA MODELS, BUT NOT FOR 2007 MODELS. WHEN SEEKING A MECHANIC TO REPAIR THE ISSUE, MECHANIC REPORTED HE'D SEEN THIS ISSUE MANY TIMES BEFORE AND RECEIVED A CALL THE WEEK PRIOR FOR SAME ISSUE. BECAUSE OF THE EXPENSE, HE IS TELLING OWNERS TO NOT GET IT FIXED AS THE CAR IS STILL DRIVEABLE, BUT WITHOUT REPAIR, THE ACCELERATION AND AIR POLLUTION ISSUES REMAIN. CALLED TOYOTA AND CUSTOMER SERVICE REP ASSUMED 2007S/MY VIN WAS A PART OF THE RELATED REIMBURSEMENT/REPAIR PROGRAM, BUT THEY ARE NOT. WAS TRANSFERRED TO A SECOND TIER REP AND HE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO SINCE THE 2007 VIN'S ARE NOT A PART OF THE PROGRAM. WHEN I TOLD HIM ABOUT A CASE NUMBER I'D FOUND IN MY ONLINE RESEARCH, HE LOOKED IT UP AND SAW REFERENCE TO A CUSTOMER WHO HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH HIS 4RUNNER. THE 4RUNNERS ARE ALSO NOT A PART OF THIS PROGRAM, BUT THERE HAVE BEEN CALLS ABOUT IT. IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THEN TOYOTA SHOULD BE REIMBURSING OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE AND CONSUMERS SHOULD BE PROTECTED FROM THIS TYPE OF NEGLIGENCE AND DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS THIS ISSUE IMPACTS MULTIPLE TOYOTA V8 MODELS, INCLUDING SEQUOIA, TUNDRA, 4RUNNER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA SEQUOIA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V741000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LIA TOYOTA OF NORTHAMPTON (280 KING ST, NORTHAMPTON, MA 01060, (413) 341-5299) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

IN JUNE OF 2018 I WENT TO WALKER TOYOTA FOR AN AIRBAG RECALL THAT THEY HAD SENT ME NOTICES ON. WHILE THERE I ASKED ABOUT A FRAME RECALL THAT SEVERAL OF MY FRIENDS WHO HAVE THE SAME VEHICLE I HAVE TOLD ME ABOUT. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VIN NUMBER FOR THAT. SO I THOUGHT I WAS IN THE CLEAR. AS WE GET INTO FALL MY FRIENDS ASK ME HOW MY RECALL ON THE FRAME WENT? DID THEY SPRAY THE FRAME OR REPLACE IT. I SAID THEY DID NEITHER. I TOLD THEM WALKER TOLD ME THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THAT. THEY ALL SAID YES THERE WAS. SO I STARTED TO LOOK INTO IT FURTHER AND FINALLY GOT THEM TO ADMIT THERE WAS A RECALL. THEY THEN TOLD ME THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THEY DO NOT DO MUST HAVE BEEN THE REASON THE TECH TOLD ME THIS WHEN I WAS THERE FOR THE AIRBAG. NOW I KNOW THIS IS A LIE BECAUSE I HAD A TOYOTA TUNDRA THAT HAD A FRAME RECALL AND WALKER DID THE FRAME REPLACEMENT. SO THEN AFTER GOING FURTHER THEY SAID "OH WE DO NOT DO THE UNDER BODY SPRAY BECAUSE WE ARE NOT LICENSED BY THE CITY TO DO IT". SO THEY GAVE ME THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN BEAVERCREEK OHIO WHICH IS PRETTY CLOSE AS SOMEONE WHO COULD DO IT. SO I CALLED THEM AND THERE WAS ONE GUY IN CHARGE OF THAT AND HE WAS NOT IN. BUT THEY DO NOT TAKE MESSAGES? I CALLED QUITE A FEW TIMES AFTER THAT TO TRY AND SET APPOINTMENT WHICH TOOK A WHILE TO GET. I GO TO APPOINTMENT AND HE SAYS THE FRAME IS BAD BUT IT IS 45 DAYS AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE RECALL. A RECALL THAT THEY LIED TO ME ABOUT. I CONTACTED TOYOTA AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING TO THEM. THEY LOOKED INTO IT AND SAID SORRY BUT WE WILL BE DOING NOTHING. THEY SAID THEY SENT ME LETTERS OF WHICH I DO NOT RECALL GETTING. THEY DID SEND ME LETTERS FOR THE AIRBAG EVERY MONTH UP UNTIL JUST A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. EVEN THOUGH THAT WORK HAD BEEN DONE. SO I AM NOW DRIVING A TRUCK THEY SAY IS UNSAFE BUT I CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER. NEED HELP. *JS

JUST CRANK THE VEHICLE UP AND THE AIRBAG INSIGNIA CAME ON AND THE BOOK SAYS TAKE TO DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY. SO I DID THAT AND NOW THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME S125 FOR CHECKING OUT A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM OTHER THAN THAT I WOULD HAVE NEVER TOOK IT TO MANUFACTURER IF I KNEW IT WOULD COSTS ME 125 DOLLARS TO CHECK A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM.THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN I STARTED DRIVING AND IT STAYED ON.

THERE IS SEVERE ABNORMAL FRAME RUST & PERFORATIONS IN THE VEHICLES FRAME. I RECEIVED NOTICED TO ADDRESS TOYOTA FRAME RECALL WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER RELATIONS TO INQUIRY ABOUT ANY RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. THE REP EXPLAINED OF TWO RECALLS & SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AT MY LOCAL TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER (FITZGERALD LAKEFOREST TOYOTA) TO ADDRESS THE FRAME RECALL CAMPAIGN & AIRBAG RECALL. THE SERVICE ADVISER EXPLAINED FRAME RECALL REMEDY WAS NOT APPLICABLE BECAUSE THERE WERE PERFORATIONS DISCOVERED IN THE VEHICLES FRAME. THE VEHICLE WAS ENTITLED TO A FRAME REPLACEMENT. THE ADVISER EXPLAINED THE FRAME RECALL REPLACEMENT HAS EXPIRED & THAT I NEEDED TO CALL TOYOTA CUSTOMERS RELATIONS TO LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM. THE AIRBAG RECALL WAS CORRECTED. I CALLED THEM. THE TOYOTA CUSTOMERS RELATIONS REPRESENTATIVE EXPLAINED THE FRAME RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE EXPIRED JANUARY 31, 2019 & TOYOTA IS NOT ABLE TO HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM NOT SURE WHY THERE IS A EXPIRATION DATE ON THIS RECALL IF THERE ARE STILL VEHICLES OUT ON THE ROAD WITH FAULTY VEHICLE FRAMES. I HAVE ATTACHED THE PICTURE OF PERFORATION IN THE FRAME.

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.

THE MASTER PRESSURE SENSOR IS FAILING AND FROM WHAT I AM READING THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON COMPLAINT IN THE EARLY 2000'S TOYOTAS BUT NO ONE HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT BESIDES CHARGE AN AWFUL AMOUNT TO FIX. MY VEHICLE WHEN IN 4WD BRAKES WILL LOCK UP AND I STILL SLIDE NO MATTER WHAT GEAR OR HOW SLOW I AM GOING. I HAVE ALMOST SLID INTO COUNTLESS CARS.

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!

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO GET THE AIRBAGS FIXED FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS. I CALL TOYOTA, THEY CALL THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TELL ME TO CALL BACK IN A FEW WEEKS IF NO ONE HAS CALLED BE TO SCHEDULE A FIX. IN A FEW WEEKS I CALL TOYOTA BACK AND START ALL OVER BUT I AM ASSURED EVERYTIME THAT THEY WILL GET IT FIXED THIS TIME. I DO NOT KNOW WHERE ELSE TO TURN IN GETTING THIS FIXED.
