My 2022 toyota tundra was part of an engine replacement recall. The original engine was replaced Oct 3 2025 at around 38,200 miles. The replacement engine broke down while driving on the street (could have happened on the freeway) on October 10 2026 at around 50k miles. Im waiting on how toyota will solve this problem.

The contact owns a 2022 Toyota Tundra. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to a local dealer for maintenance, where it was discovered that the vehicle had an oil pressure failure. The local dealer associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V381000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The vehicle was previously repaired under the recall at another dealer. The local dealer advised the contact to contact the original servicing dealer about the failure. The original servicing dealer was contacted but stated that any additional repair would be out of pocket. The failure mileage was approximately 37,049.

On September 1, 2026, my 2022 Toyota Tundra experienced a serious loss of accelerator response while I was leaving a gas station and entering traffic. I pressed the accelerator, but the truck provided effectively no acceleration, leaving me partially in the roadway. An approaching vehicle had to swerve into the opposing traffic lane to avoid a collision. I had experienced a similar low-speed loss of accelerator response within the prior two weeks. On September 2, while traveling on I-70 at approximately 70 mph, the truck experienced a separate loss-of-power event. Engine RPM dropped considerably and the vehicle felt as though it were coasting. I pressed the accelerator firmly, but it did not respond normally for approximately 5-10 seconds before power returned. Radar/adaptive cruise control was not engaged. I immediately took the truck to Western Slope Toyota. Technicians checked for codes, performed multiple road tests and recorded vehicle data but could not reproduce the intermittent failure. The issue was escalated to Toyota technical assistance under TAS Case 262460664. This problem has been documented by Western Slope Toyota since 2023. Toyota's applicable TSB repairs were performed on prior occasions in an attempt to correct the throttle/hesitation problem, but they did not resolve it. In 2025, the dealer again documented the condition after the earlier TSB had already been performed. According to the September 2026 repair documentation and my discussion with the Western Slope Toyota service manager, Toyota's specialist technical team is aware that the condition can remain despite the TSB work. The repair order states that Toyota identified a known hesitation concern that remains under investigation and that there was no repair to be made at that time. The condition is intermittent and unpredictable and can cause loss of accelerator response or motive power at low and highway speeds. I believe it creates a serious crash risk. Current mileage: 58,735.

This is a follow-up to my NHTSA complaint tracking #11742382, filed June 5, 2026, before my recall repair. I'm filing again because the repair is now complete and it has raised two new concerns: undocumented warranty coverage on the replacement engine, and an unresolved question about whether a second, broader recall applies to that replacement engine. 1. Recall repair completed. Under NHTSA Campaign 24V381000 (Toyota internal 24TA07, filed 2024-05-30), my original engine was replaced with a new OEM assembly (part 04004-23370, serial [XXX], 2026 manufacture date, incorporating the post-April-2024 revised bearing design) at Teton Toyota, Idaho Falls, ID, June 19 to 22, 2026 (repair order [XXX], mileage in/out 28,252/28,281). Toyota's own recall record states the replacement unit was inspected clean. I have no reason to doubt that specific finding; my concern is what happens after. 2. Replacement engine's warranty terms were left undocumented. The repair order lists the warranty "Policy Number" covering the new engine as TBD. As of this filing, Toyota National (1-800-331-4331) has not given me a written answer to a direct question: does the replacement engine carry a new 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty starting from the June 22, 2026 install date, or only the remainder of my original factory warranty? A safety recall remedy that leaves the owner without documented knowledge of what protection they actually received is, in my view, an incomplete remedy under 49 CFR Part 573's recordkeeping and notification requirements. Owners should not have to chase this down themselves months after the repair. 3. A second, broader recall may or may not apply to my replacement engine, and Toyota has not said which. NHTSA Campaign 25V767000 (Toyota internal 25TA14, filed 2025-11-06) expands the same underlying defect population to additional 2022-2024 Tundra, Lexus LX, and 2024 Lexus GX vehicles, with a remedy of inspecting the #1 main bearing via inspection software and INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF I

REPEATED CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE / FAILED RECALL REMEDY. My 2022 Toyota Tundra suffered a complete engine seizure and sudden loss of motive power August 30, 2026, creating an immediate traffic hazard. This is the SECOND time this vehicle has experienced a catastrophic main bearing failure of its twin-turbo V6 engine. The original factory engine was replaced by an authorized Toyota dealership under Safety Recall 24V-381 / 24TA07 in March 2025. The defect should have been resolved. However, the replacement crate engine provided by Toyota carried the exact same engineering vulnerability as the original engine. It was manufactured prior to Toyota's mid-2026 engineering revision, which finally introduced a redesigned #1 main bearing to address localized crankshaft pressure stack-up (as noted in subsequent NHTSA filings like 26V-320).Furthermore, the previous engine replacement due to a federal safety recall was entirely withheld and not disclosed to me at the point of sale. Because Toyota replaced a recalled, defective engine with an identically flawed engine block, the initial recall remedy completely failed, leaving the vehicle dangerous and prone to repeated mechanical failure. The vehicle has driven approximately 16 months since the March 2025 replacement. I am demanding that Toyota provide a permanent remedy using the updated, structurally revised 2026 engine components. It is at the Toyota dealer.

A bulletin sent by a manufacturer to its dealers. Not a recall, and repairs are not necessarily free.
ENGINE
Flash reprogramming allows the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) software to be updated without replacing the ECU. Flash calibration updates for specific vehicle models/ECUs are released as field-fix procedures described in individual Service Bulletins. This bulletin details the Global Techstream+ (GTS+) ECU flash reprogramming procedures and outlines use of the Technical Information System (TIS) and the Calibration Update Wizard+ (CUW+). To ensure the correct ECU software is installed, ECUs will require a Security Signature before the ECU will initialize the flash reprogramming sequence. This bulletin also details the process for acquiring a Security Signature from TIS during the GTS+ ECU flash reprogramming process.

This Customer Support Program provides coverage as it applies to the engine turbocharger assemblies on certain 2022 – 2025 Model Year Tundra, 2022 – 2025 Model Year Tundra HV, and 2023 – 2025 Model Year Sequoia models. The specific condition covered by this program is for corrosion of the turbocharger assembly’s wastegate bushing and pin due to defects in materials or workmanship. If this occurs, the engine warning light will illuminate after engine start up and there could be a reduction in acceleration performance. When the engine warning light illuminates Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P25B372, P25B473, P25B572, and/or P25B673 are set in the engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU). If the condition is verified, the vehicle will be repaired with improved turbos under the terms of this Customer Support Program
