2023 Toyota Tundra with 31,000 miles on it and the main bearings was knocking and engine about to cease, Toyota has a recall for this exact same thing on truck that where produced two months earlier so I am told they are replacing the hole engine but for mine Toyota only wants to just do a half block when that main bearings goes it will put metal shavings though out the engine that’s why they are replacing the hole engine why not my truck. Have bought 4 Toyota had a 07 Tundra from new put 320,000 miles on it not a lick of trouble and cost half the price. No warning lights came on. Thought engine was going to explode. Has only been serviced and inspected by Toyota dealership. My advice don’t buy a new tundra. So let the run around begin on trying to get it fixed and for how long.

Consistently this vehicle experiences a hesitation to accelerate from a stop or rolling stop such as a stop sign or at a round about type intersection. When this occurs there may be up to a 2 second delay from when I press the accelerator to when the vehicle moves and once it does begin to move it will jump forward rapidly. I have had several near miss collisions upon entering round abouts when this occurs as well as at several stop sign intersections. This problem has existed from when the vehicle was at about 5,000 miles. I have reported this condition to the Toyota dealer on 2 occasions and they tell me Toyota does not recognize this is an issue and there is no fix.

The engine has 13,441 miles on it and it has been consuming 4 quarts of oil in 1700 miles. The dealer sealed the engine and is performing an oil consumption test. Approximately 500 mile into the test the check engine light started flashing due to a misfire. The dealer found that the #1plug was fouled out and had to be replaced. At 1029 miles into the test the truck was idling in a parking lot for about 8 minutes when it started to misfire and stumble. After stepping on the throttle to clear out the misfire, the dash lit flashing multiple warnings including the breaking system was stuck on hindering the truck from being able to move. After several restarts and playing with the parking brake I managed to get the parking brake off. It still had the flashing check engine light on and flashing. The pre-collision light was flashing, along with the traction control light was flashing and none of the safety systems were working.

When in start and stop traffic when the vehicle is at low speeds below 5 mile an hour. The transmission does not properly downshift. This causes a severe lag in acceleration when needed in traffic or in Intersections. This delay is a safety issue due to causing a lack of vehicle movement when needed. The vehicle will basically not accelerate for a couple seconds until it decides to downshift. This happens continuously at speeds below 5 mile an hour. If you don’t stop completely and pause for a second or two, the transmission will not downshift properly. In traffic, you cannot do this.

On 10/18/2024 as I was driving my 2023 Toyota Tundra the engine quit running,after coasting to the burm of the road I got out and check the oil and found it full. I then tried to restart it and it sounded like the bottom half of the engine was coming apart. I had it towed to a nearby Toyota dealer,when they looked at the oil it had metal in it. I had to obtain a rental car under customer pay until the dealer determined what had happened,they informed me that they found a substantial amount of metal in the oil pan,just like the 96000 Toyota tundra’s that have been recalled due to this issue. I requested a new engine,a new truck or a buyback of my truck,I was later contacted by the service manager for the dealership and was told the would be doing a short block rebuild of this engine. My issue with this solution is that it was caused by the same issue that the 96000 other Toyota Tundra’s hav been recalled for and Toyota has informed me my warranty doesn’t qualify me for a new engine replacement. Common sense should be my engine should qualify for the same solution those other Toyota Tundras. I am filing this complaint because TOYOTA refuses to help me in any way,and the value of my truck will be negatively effected by their decision.
