The Original Toyota Fuel Pump Recall
The first Toyota fuel pump recall was issued in January because the DENSO pumps were causing vehicles to stall. The fuel pumps are located inside the gas tanks and may have impellers that crack and absorb fuel. This can deform the impeller which can hit the fuel pump and cause the engine to stall.
Toyota says an engine will typically stall below 20 mph, but in some cases the stall may occur above 20 mph.
Out of 66 reports filed by January, three of the vehicles stalled while traveling above 20 mph, and the automaker had received more than 2,500 fuel pump warranty claims.
In addition, an engine may not stall but may have trouble running, and a driver may notice illuminated warning lights. And Toyota fuel pump failures allegedly occur more often in warmer southern states.
The Toyota fuel pump recall involves dealerships replacing the pumps with improved fuel pumps.
Owners of the latest recalled Toyota and Lexus vehicles will be notified about the recall in December. If you have questions about the Toyota fuel pump recall, please call the automaker at 800-331-4331.
