Could be more than one thing.. Maybe the sensor is bad and giving you a incorrect reading.. Either way it should not be hard to change or troubleshoot...

The emmissions system is under Toyota warranty for a long time. Check your warranty book.

Unless you have modified the exhaust, I think it is a time limit warranty with no mileage limits.
