This is an engine failure recall and after multiple conversations with my service advisor, I am being told that my "vehicle is not ready for the corrective action at this time". When I ask him what constitutes "being ready", he states that "the engine pretty must has to be dead". My reply, "In other words, I need to be stranded with an inoperable vehicle before Toyota is going to allow a claim submission?" His reply, "yep, that is pretty much it." So, I am driving a car over mountain passes
The monitor loses connection and requires a pin to come back up. While driving, following map directions, this requires you to try and do this while driving. Very dangerous. Especially in heavy traffic at speed . Thank you.

While operating my 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro under normal conditions, I started the vehicle and activated standard factory equipment including the seat heaters and window/mirror defrosters. Shortly thereafter, I noticed a slight acrid odor inside the vehicle, which quickly became more pronounced. I drove approximately 200 feet, and immediately returned to my driveway. Upon shutting the vehicle down, I observed smoke coming from the engine compartment. I opened the hood and confirmed smoke and

1-2 second period of no throttle response from a rolling stop, then a sudden lurch of acceleration. This happens all the time with my family in the car and its really scary.

Had recalled engine replaced on 12/6/25. on 1/22/26 took vehicle into dealership with issues with vibration in engine and hesitation at certain speeds, tonight 2/5/26 engine completely lost power at 65 mph on highway, dashboard flashing with every error to be had for Toyota engine. No power, rolled into emergency lane. Put hazards on. Turned engine off. Waited and engine was re-started and made it home. Extremely dangerous situation!!!
My reverse stopped working, it just shows a black screen when I switch to it. The rest of my entertainment console works, it's only when I put it in reverse that it goes black. I saw that there was a recall issued for 2024 and 2025 Toyota Tundras, but I believe that the 2023 should be included as well. It looks to be a common issue, as I saw 2023 Tundras with a higher trim package also had a recall for the backup camera.
Since Toyota has recalled these engines, they have failed to produce a solution. This engine was recalled due to a safety concern, but yet they have not replaced the engine, nor do they even have a timeline for when it might be replaced. We use our Tundra for long distance towing with a heavy trailer. This has created a situation that is very concerning and my wife and I no longer feel safe in a truck that an engine can just seize in seconds leaving us not only stranded, but potentially in th
Recurring throttle lag. At a stoplight or stop sign at a full and complete stop I press down the accelerator and nothing happens for about a second and a half. When it finally does respond, it jumps as if it was struggling to get into gear.
Vehicle stuck in 4WD HI after switching it from 2WD. Would not go back into 2WD. Did all the preventative maintenance including driving in 4WD HI once a month. Dealer claims is a switch outside the powertrain that is getting stuck. Replacement part ordered and will arrive in 4-8 weeks. Dealership saying Iâm outside my warranty and part/labor will not be covered. My safety was put at risk d/t not being able to make appropriate turns when driving while truck was stuck in 4WD. No warning lights i
Driving down the highway at about 50 mph. Went to pass another vehicle and engine shut off. Thank goodness was able to pull to shoulder and get towed to dealer. Could have been a catastrophic situation.
