I've been experiencing throttle lag on my 2022 Tundra in certain situations during rolling stops (I've also had it occur from a dead stop, though more frequent in rolling stops). Sometimes there is a significant delay in throttle response, and the other day while pulling out into traffic the delay was perhaps 2-3 seconds. This nearly created an accident as the engine had zero response and greatly affected my ability to accelerate quickly enough. Please consider this as a possible recall, as the danger level is very high for this known issue. Thank you for your time.

Both of the turbos on my truck failed with a code description of "waste gate actuator stuck closed". This resulted in a significant drop in power while on the interstate. This code appeared several months before this incident when it was at the dealer for service and Toyota cleared the code and sent me on my way without mentioning it. I only saw it later when I was looking through the history in the vehicle information section in the truck's multimedia system.

Vehicle experienced sudden engine shutdown at highway speed. While traveling at highway speed, the internal combustion engine shut off without warning. The hybrid system temporarily allowed propulsion, which enabled me to move the vehicle out of traffic and off the highway shoulder. After stopping, the vehicle would not restart for approximately 20 minutes. During this time, the vehicle was disabled and would not turn on. After the waiting period, the vehicle restarted and operated normally. No warning lights or messages were present prior to the shutdown. This event created a dangerous situation at highway speed and posed a significant safety risk to myself and my passengers. The vehicle is a 2022 Toyota Tundra Hybrid (i-FORCE MAX). Since the incident, the vehicle has been driven approximately 10,000 miles without recurrence, but the cause of the shutdown was never identified. I am concerned this event may be related to known engine defects or reliability issues reported for this model year.
