I have received a recall notice on my vehicle (Toyota Tundra) about a serious engine issue 2 months ago. The NHTSA recall number is 24V-381. The Toyota recall number is 24TA07. Now two months have passed, they still didn't have a remedy available. In the letter, it states "Engine may stall during driving. A loss of motive power while driving at higher speeds can increase the risk of crash." It is not reasonable for such a serious problem but they are still not able to provide a fix for it for this long. I am filing a complaint in hope to get this resolved. I am requesting Toyota to provide fix for this issue within two weeks. If they are not able to, they need to buy back my vehicle.

There is a hesitation / loss of power when starting from a stop. I have had it to the dealership a few times and the did a bulletin update for the transmission at least two times. The problem continues and is a safety hazard. There is a recall to replace the engine because of possible debris. When this is done I hope this issue will be resolved but I am not to hopeful.

Dear NHTSA Team, I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding the extended recall processing time for my 2022 Toyota Tundra. I am deeply concerned about the length of time my vehicle has been out of service and the significant inconvenience it has caused me. Vehicle Information: Make: Toyota Model: Tundra Year: 2022 VIN: [Vehicle Identification Number] Recall Campaign Number: RMISC-24V381-8150 Recall Details: My vehicle was brought in for a recall issue related to a major engine failure, which is a significant safety concern, in May [year]. Despite the considerable time that has passed since then, I have been informed today that the repair cannot yet be performed. Given the severity of the issue and the extended time my vehicle has been out of service, I believe it is unreasonable to continue waiting for a resolution. Therefore, I am requesting that the dealership buy back my vehicle as a resolution to this matter. Since my truck has been in the repair facility, I have been driving rental trucks. This situation has been both inconvenient and costly. The prolonged absence of my vehicle has disrupted my daily life and work activities. I would like to request the following: An Immediate Status Update: Please provide me with a detailed update on the current status of the recall repair for my vehicle. Expected Timeline: An estimated timeline for when I can expect my truck to be repaired and returned to me. Buyback Request: I request that the dealership purchase my vehicle back given the unresolved and safety-critical nature of the recall issue. Compensation Information: Information on any potential compensation or reimbursement for the extended period I have had to use rental trucks due to this recall.

I have a 2022 Tundra with 18,700 miles on it that is part of the recall for a new engine! This is my fourth tundra, and the materials used in the 3rd Gen are sub-par to say the least! I have already had to replace the actuator and motor in my passenger window because it was stuck halfway open/closed and it took the dealership almost 2 weeks just to get the parts and put them in. My tailgate isn't aligned properly and the mold growth on all the rubber window trim is a nightmare as well as the roof wells that are also covered in mold up and down both sides. My rear passenger door doesn't close correctly and nobody at Toyota knows how to fix any of these issues! I am very concerned about a dealership putting a new engine in my truck when they can't even change the oil or rotate my tires correctly.?I also have other serious issues like, I feel a giant thud like somebody rear ended me when I step on the gas from a red light or stop sign and sometimes when I step on the gas on the highway and it scares the heck out of me. It almost feels like the back of my truck fell off. When it's raining out and my hood is covered in water and then the rain stops and I turn my windshieldwipers off, the water that rolls down the hood is spit straight into my windshield from the radiator fan! I also took it to the dealership to fix the fuel line recall, and they said they don't have the parts available, it's been over 2 weeks now and the recall was issued last year.

I have a 2022 Tundra that I purchased new. My current mileage is 18,500 and although my truck is part of the engine replacement recall that is not what I am complaining about, what I am complaining about is my front passenger window got stuck halfway open/closed and it's been sitting at the dealership for 2 weeks with no parts available to fix it (the cable snapped and motor burned out). They did put me in a rental (tacoma) but they have no idea when the parts will be available to fix my window! This is my 4th Tundra and never had an issue like this with any of my others. I've already called Toyota and they have no idea when parts will be available either. They also said they have no parts to fix the temporary fuel line recall which has been out for almost 1 year.

My 2022 tundra on the engine recall list had engine failure due to metal shavings in the oil in April 1st 2024. It had 63,000 miles on it so 3k outside of warranty. Toyota of Wichita Falls and Toyota corporate told me no know engine issues just bad luck. But according to the recall paper work Toyota knew and was investigating engine issue for over a year before mine blew up. The Toyota dealership and corporate lied about the issue. I was stranded 12hours from home with false information that cost me $35,000 on trade in value in order to get home.

On 07/10 while accelerating from red to green light, at around 50mph truck shook and alerted my attention to dash/odometer because of immediate slowing of truck. Noticed alert for -??Engine Power Loss-?? and -??Brake Failure-?? and instructed to see dealer. Could not go above 30mph at 2500rpm, thankfully I was 5 minutes from home. Had Tundra towed to dealer. They got Toyota involved and started a case. As of 07/12, dealer was instructed to reset engine valve settings, cleared alerts, and did normal schedule maintenance. I was instructed to drive directly to dealer or pull over where I was and have a technician drive to my location so they could further assess this issue. As if they work 24/7 and would drive outside of city limits-??I put 100+ miles a day on my truck for my work commute.

Recall 24TA07 (Interim Notice 24TB07) was issued on May 30, 2024. Almost a month to the day, our engine locked up while traveling 60MPH through our town. Failure occurred July 1, 2024 @ approx. 11:30a Central. It took Toyota Roadside Assistance over 4 hours to get a tow truck to us. It was approx. 105?F Heat Index. Case was opened with Toyota Brand Engagement Center on July 2, 2024 @ approx. 7am Central. Case was closed without any further communication to us or our dealership. The lack of communication from Toyota Corporate (Brand Engagement Center) is unacceptable.

At certain times, when coming to a stop, and then attempting to proceed, the throttle with delay or lag from a stop. This has happened since the start of ownership in Feb 2022 up until today. Toyota has issued on previous Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) - T-SB-0111-22 - that Toyota states should resolve an issue with "Hesitation From Stop and Surge Concerns". The TCM -Transmission Control Module - logic has been modiWed to address these conditions. According to Toyota, this updated logic SHOULD keep this from happening. This TSB was released December 16, 2022. To date, this issue continues to occur. The only way to keep it from happening is to Reset the TCM Learning. This requires the battery to be unplugged for an extended period of time. There was a subsequent TCM logic update for Recall 24TA02 (NHTSA Campaign Number 24V125000). It would seem that this TCM Logic Update has actually caused this condition to be present more often. This is something that we have expressed to our Service Consultant at every visit and it is still occurring over two years later. We have had this happen multiple times while attempting to proceed through a 4-way stop, as well as trying to merge into tra`c in slower moving city streets. There are members of an online forum who have been able to record the data aow and show when and how the delay occurs. Other than December 2022 TSB, Toyota has not acknowledged this issue even though it continues to occur on the MY22+ Tundra/MY23+ Sequoia, as well as the MY18+ Lexus LS 500. I am lead to believe this is a result of the programming for the Direct Shift 10- AT from Aisin/Toyota and/or the V35A-FTS, both Type '17 (LS 500) and the Type '21 (Tundra/ Sequoia).

Engine is running rough, Engine is idling very high went first start.,I am concerned about the temporary fuel line repair. I don-??t believe it is sufficient because we are dealing with fuel. Fuel line should be replaced along with the engine having debris in it, I am concerned with even driving it. A brand new truck shouldn-??t have all these recalls! This is like the 5th one. I pay to much money to drive a truck that I-??m scared of driving. At this point tell them to give me back my money and I will go purchase a horse. Thank you!

Purchased this vehicle in Oct of 2022. Since then, the vehicle lost all power and shut down on a major interstate in July 0f 2023 with many check engine lights coming on. After coasting to the shoulder of the road, I turned off the ignition, waited 15-20min, and the vehicle started. I continued my two hour drive back home, bring my truck into the dealer within 2 days of this occurring. The dealer looked at it, notified Toyota, and said they are seeing debris in the engines causing power loss, but that Toyota has not yet informed them of any remedies and to continue to drive the truck. A few months later, while towing a trailer the engine was making a knocking sound and lost power, only allowing me to reach about 2k RPM with the pedal to the floor. It lasted for about 10 min or so, and went away. After this incident, the truck makes a knocking sound while towing my 5K pound travel trailer, a few times every single time I tow. I did not bring it to the dealer for this issue. June 2024, I was towing my trailer for a camoing trip, and about 2 hours in to the 3 hour drive, the truck lost power and would not exceed 3K rpm or 45MPH on the interstate almost getting my hot by 3 different vehicles (the engine still knocks every time I tow), the loss of power lasted off and on until I made it to my camp site. I parked truck, and it sat for 3 days while we used our other vehicle to drive around in. On the way back home on that Sunday, the truck regained power, but would still make a knocking sound under load. I brought it into the dealer on the day after (Monday). I also uncovered thaty Toyota released a statement that all Dealer should stop selling my model year truck due to a "Safety Recall', one that describes the symptoms I've been having. The tech at the dealer was in communicaion with Toyota, and Toyota was teeling them that unless they could replicat ethe issue, there was nothing they could do. I have more to write.

This Engine Recall has me concerned for the safety and security of my family. The fact that my engine can stall and fail at anytime is unacceptable especially for how much I spent on this vehicle. Toyota should be buying these trucks back from us and issuing new ones that don't have this issue. We customers are stuck with vehicles we can't sell or trade in and it is very upsetting to spend 60k on a vehicle that is essentially unsafe and virtually worthless two years in.
