2022 Toyota Tundra

Manufacturer Recall Number25TB06 NHTSA Recall Number25V322 In regards to the above mentioned recalls. The vehicle's reverse camera began flashing while driving forward. The R light on the gearshift was also flashing. While driving forward about 15 mph out of a parking lot, the vehicle suddenly went into reverse on it's own, locked up and would not move. I had to have the vehicle towed to the dealership. This happened around the week of June 8. The dealership says that they reset the electrical recall, we picked up the truck and it ran fine for about a week. The reverse camera and R light on the gearshift began flashing again on June 17. It did not shift itself into reverse, but the dealership requested that we bring the vehicle back. The dealership stated that Toyota has "grounded" the vehicle and does not have a fix for the recall to date and continuing to drive it is a safety hazzard. It has been sitting at the dealership since June 18 with no end in sight. The dealership and Toyota Corporate continues to tell me every few days that they do not have a fix for the issues/recalls.

Summary of Complaint I am submitting this complaint to report what I believe may be a safety-related defect involving the twin-turbocharger system on my 2022 Toyota Tundra (VIN: [XXX]). The driver’s side turbocharger failed at approximately 58,000 miles and had to be replaced. Approximately 6,000 miles later, at around 64,000 miles, the passenger-side turbocharger also failed. The vehicle has been properly maintained and serviced by authorized Toyota dealerships. A failed turbocharger causes a significant loss of engine power, which can create a hazardous condition when merging onto highways, overtaking other vehicles, or driving in traffic where acceleration is necessary to avoid a collision. Toyota requested that I return the vehicle to an authorized dealership for an additional diagnosis, which confirmed the failure of the second turbocharger. I paid $250 for this diagnosis at Toyota’s request. Despite the repeated failure of both turbochargers at relatively low mileage, Toyota declined to provide further assistance and informed me that its decision was final. Based on the failure of both turbochargers within only 64,000 miles, I believe this may represent a manufacturing or design defect rather than normal wear. I respectfully request that NHTSA review this issue and determine whether similar failures are occurring in other 2022 Toyota Tundra vehicles equipped with the same twin-turbo engine, and whether a safety-related defect investigation is warranted.

Water is leaking into the cab of my 2022 Toyota Tundra Platinum 4x4 through the high-mounted third brake light. The leak allows water to enter the headliner and interior, creating the potential for mold, damage to the interior, and electrical issues. After troubleshooting, the third brake light gasket appears to be the source of the leak. Toyota does not appear to offer the gasket as a replacement part, requiring owners to replace the entire third brake light assembly despite the failure being limited to the seal. Numerous owners have reported similar water intrusion issues on 2022+ Tundras, suggesting this may be a common defect rather than an isolated incident. I believe Toyota should investigate the failed gasket design and consider a recall or service campaign to replace the defective seal or assembly.

I have not had an actual vehicle accident as of yet but the vehicle has a serious hesitation issue during acceleration from a quick stop or rolling situation whereas if you were making a left turn at a traffic light and were waiting for traffic while execrating to clear the next on coming vehicle there is sometimes a 3 second or more delay before the vehicle will accelerate which could cause an accident. Toyota has recognized this issue and came out with a technical service bulletin (T-SB-0032-26) with an update program for the TCU but has not included my vin or several others that have this same issue. I have been told by my dealer that they could do the update but since my vin is not included they would have to charge me. This is a major safety issue and needs to be addressed at no cost to the consumers. I have contacted Toyota brand engagement and they were no help at all acting like they had no idea what I was talking about. It happens every, everywhere. Major safety issue. Making complaints before accidents or fatalities happen because of this!

The contact owns a 2022 Toyota Tundra. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle jerked, and the engine stalled. The vehicle was driven to the shoulder of the road. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with engine failure. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired under an unknown recall; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that the failure was persistent. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, who confirmed the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 66,000.

Three recalls have now been issued across four years Post-fix engines are still failing for the new tundra Toyota is still issuing new part numbers and design revisions for 2026 The NHTSA filing explicitly references engine configuration as a pressure driver No complete remedy exists for the second recall as of today The probability this is purely a manufacturing debris issue is effectively zero at this point. As one insider on BobIsTheOilGuy summarized: "Toyota is not telling the public the entire extent of the issue because all vehicles with that engine are experiencing failures and because it's at least partly a design flaw issue — even the replacement motors will fail." BobIsTheOilGuy What Toyota has is a design that operates with insufficient margin at #1 main, which means it will continue to surface failures even in "clean" engines under the right combination of load, heat, and mileage — just at a lower rate than the heavily contaminated early production units. That's why there's no clean fix. You can't recall your way out of a physics problem. This is a engine defect. Toyota needs to buy back all these vehicles.

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.
