They killed this generation. The resale value has tanked. Dealers won’t take them on trade in. And now the previous gen has increased in price. There’s nothing they can do to sell more. But they can take care of the people who bought them. Lifetime powertrain warranty. That’s about it.

When you take off oil filter cut it open and examine for shavings.. Consider oil filter magnets.. I would also go with a very high end oil filter such as amsoil.. Dude opening my rear diff I found a lot of break in metal on the magnet.. its kind of normal for bearing to deal with this.. Document all of this with pictures and receipts... Also change oil 5000 km for now... or maybe several thousand km max.. I would go with amsoil signature series for now and keep your receipts... I would also up oil viscosity from 0w20 to 5w30..

Everybody is freaking out, they need to get educated and CHILL

[@mr.monkei]

Lots of people in the comments dont seem to understand what a "SAFETY" recall is. There will be no extended warranty. Toyota will have to either replace the engines. The recall literally states that affected Tundras is a possible crash risk. Gm, ford, kia, BMW, VW all had to replace engines in the past. Toyota can do the same

My local Toyota dealership has done 6 short block replacement and 5 have already come back for the same issue. This was in the past 6 months. Bottom line is, I love Toyota but they really screwed up this time. This is what happens when we let the EPA have so much control.

[@josephlondon5018]

Toyota MUST offer FULL ENGINE REPLACEMENT as the remedy for the recall. Short block replacement does not address any debris that may have worked their way into the upper parts of the engine, Also what about all the other bearings in the engine that may have been exposed to the " manufacturing debris ".

[@ksorsomeplace]

Maybe there is another choice: Bring out the Tundra Classic. Produce the old model right alongside the new one.

I have a 24 and really do like my truck. It out performs the 2nd gen in about everything but I don’t trust it for the long haul like the 2nd gen. I would say extended warranties would for sure go a long way in helping me feel a little better. At the moment I feel like I have a BMW or something.

[@jerrykite9318]

I have a 2022 1794 iForce Max that I got in September of 2022, on the cusp of being a 2023. This was my 4th Tundra, had a 2002, 2008 and a 2015 1794 Supercharged and I do not miss my 2015,, which was a great truck but my 2022 is superior in many ways. I live in Surprise AZ and haul a UTV and trailer many times a year north to Utah and Surprise being at 1296 feet above sea level and Flagstaff being at 7000 feet it is mostly uphill for 145 miles. My 2015 pulled the trailer and UTV well but trying to maintain the speed limit of 75MPH uphill it had to get in the over 4000 RPM many times and was screaming when it did so, my 2022 does this with out having to get in the upper RPM range to do the same, mainly around 2300, much quitter and comfortable not to mention almost twice the MPG than my 2015. When I purchased my 2022 I also included an extended warrantee for around $2000.00 minding that caution on buying a new model year. The technology in my 2022 is also most welcome from my 2015, safer in many ways and features that make driving it a real pleasure. Sure they, Toyota are having issues, same as the other big three but I would rather have issues with Toyota than any of them as I feel confident Toyota will resolve this as they have in the past. The issue with metal shavings in the pan is a human issue, someone let their responsibility for inspections down.

I don't believe the debris issue. Full engines redesigned replacement and extended warranty. I'm a Honda guy and this is my first Toyota. They should make it right.

[@Annihilator105]

Agreed it’s a design issue. The main bearings have too much play, and are not being properly lubricated with oil. Check out the short blocks they pulled from the affected trucks, the bearings are not only scored but they are smoked. Main bearing is black, that indicates lack of oiling.

[@trevorharley4475]

Redesign is what will correct the issue because this is a design flaw. Unfortunately a full redesign takes way too much time and money. They'll never do it. Engine replacement is pointless. It's like swapping out a bad part for the same bad part. I've worked in the auto industry for 18 years and I can tell you they will do just enough to get out of legal/government trouble.

[@willytrouble88]

I think they’re going to suspend production, buy back what has been sold, and redesign the power train. Story for context….back in the 1980’s, my family owned a Yamaha dealership. Yamaha discovered a defect in the engine design of the SRX440 snowmobile. They issued a buy back, and sent some techs to our dealership to load up the ones we had on the showroom floor. Before loading them, they literally took a sledge hammer to the engines and destroyed them. Unfortunately, the SRX440 never came back into production. It morphed into the Vmax 535 about 2 years later. So, I vote they will buy back these trucks and put them through the chipper.

[@doctordetroit4339]

Nope.....these trucks are not snowmobiles. Multiple that price by about 10x.

[@willytrouble88]

@@doctordetroit4339that’s true. However, not inconceivable that Toyota would offer a substantial credit on what’s been sold, recall all unsold vehicles, and replace all of the engines and power trains. Likely will need to suspend production for a year or more in order to pull that off. A full engine replacement for current customers isn’t feasible. Who would do this work? The dealers can’t handle this.

Toyotas 4.6 bullet proof engine of today had 200,000 motor recalls in 2010. They’ll get it right. I’m more concerned about the cheap fit and finishes than I am motor issues in the future. They need to give 100,000 mile warranties on the motors and anything associated with the oil to save face.

I have driven Toyota trucks for the past 40 years for one reason - bullet proof quality. I'm now driving a 2020 Tundra TRD Pro and I love it. It seems to me that Toyota lost the sauce with the new gen in changing too many things at one time. I think they should have kept the tried and true V8 for at least the first couple of years. Toyota's reputation IS QUALITY. I sincerely hope that they make good on this recall and get things right. Their reputation rides on this.

[@johnseewald1530]

I have a 2022 Tundra Hybrid 1794. It has had both waste gates on the turbos fail at different times. Those repairs were beyond frustrating. Three weeks each time, as it is a cab off fix. 😢Now this. I have added a leer camper, winch, lift,lighting etc. costing thousands of dollars making this truck into an overlanding rig. At this point I’m screwed. This truck isn’t part of the recall because as I understand it,it isn’t a safety recall issue because the hybrid part of the system can safely get you off the road. But it is the same 3.5 twin turbo v6 that is in the other Tundras. As a lifelong Toyota buyer I’m angry and bitterly disappointed. Now every time I drive the truck, I am just waiting for the next shoe to drop. When you go way out into the middle of nowhere pulling an offroad camper and your engine fails. Who the hell is going to tow you out? It is now officially the single worst financial mistake I have made on such a large purchase. The only thing I want Toyota to do at this point is offer Full lifetime drivetrain warranty,with towing paid for by Toyota and not my insurance,wherever the truck might be when it fails.

[@chancecaskey4255]

They need to bring them all in for oil analysis. Drop the pans. Inspect the pickup screen. Scope the motors where they're prone to failure. If an issue is found, full motor replacement. Extend warranties to full coverage as long as you own your vehicle and refund your warranty if you bought one. And give free services for as long as you own it. That's gear oil, engine oil, and trans services. As well as coolant replacement. Compensate people who have paid out of pocket based on their tundra failing. As far as bringing back the V8. I say its never gonna happen until they can get a v8 within current emission standards. Let all just agree that we'd all rather have the Hilux lol.

[@livingadreamlife1428]

I’m a hardcore Toyota guy from way back and am now driving my 7th Toyota vehicle. That said, the issue Toyota is having is that they sold a defective engine product to their consumers. Anything short of a full engine replacement leaves the current Gen 3 Tundra owners at a negative trade-in value in future years. I don’t think “buy back” is a realistic option for Toyota. Agree with those who say that the V8 should be an option. The most important thing people should do is vote the Dems out of office in November.

[@stanburman9978]

Really a great video today. Thank you. I am very glad that I have been a procrastinator about replacing my 2014 Tundra TRD Offroad that is chugging along just fine with a mere 120,000 miles. Regarding your list of proposed remedies to the current engine situation I would have engine replacement AND extended warranty at the top of the list. Going back to the much loved 5.7 L V8 would be great, but what is the situation with the assembly line that produced it? If it's sitting somewhere under care and maintenance that's fine. But what if it had to be recreated? That could introduce problems similar to what is happening now. Just a thought. I have confidence that Toyota can resolve the current engine manufacturing issues. The question is how long will it take? First they should take care of customers that have been affected with this issue.

[@michaelstewart9366]

I want the v8. I’m about to purchase a Chevy or GMC bc they have a v8. Wish the tundra was a v8.

[@MrMaz111]

I'll be happy if they bring back the 4.7 V8.

[@Nevets007]

They need to just make this model with a V8….

[@doolittlegeorge]

First thing is to roll out a vastly improved 2025 Tundra.

[@ryliecarter3308]

Buy back option. Then engine replacement + extra warranty. I like the 6 turbos for gas savings as we are on the road a lot

[@shanewhittemore]

I am getting 20 MPG on my 2024 I-Force Max Limited compared to 13 MPG with my old 2016 Tundra. Nice change as along as it's reliable and now that is a big question mark???

[@jahedberg]

I don't have a Toyota Tundra, but am in the process of considering one. The primary reason is their reliability and their ability to address a problem in a timely manner. I would prefer a V-8 and that's why I am considering a used 2020 or 2021. I am also considering a 2024, with the potential for a deal and no miles. Out of your options to address the recall, I have my hand up for a V8 with a 10 speed. Knowing that the earliest they could manufacture those units would be a 2025 later in the winter or early spring. Thinking from a corporate perspective and dealer as well, buy back the units or take them as trades, and then ship them to a plant to specifically do the engine replacements. Then back to dealers to sell as a Toyota Certified vehicle to reduce the overall warranty impact to their financial statements. Plus it may win back the loyalty of those current owners who are on the fence and the customers who may be hesitant about stepping into the Toyota family.

[@williamholsinger236]

If they want to get rid of any future problems it makes sense to stick with what works and do the ten speed. I’m sure it would definitely entice some former ram fans.

[@Robert-2]

If anyone remembers the Tacoma Frame rot issue. They replaced the frame or gave you a 1.5x KBB retail value. So I’m hopeful that they will make this right.

[@MajorRaynor]

I am waiting for them to add the hybrids to this recall that were built at the same time.

[@kurtbeck5809]

According to one youtuber there are a few cases of hybrid engines failing

[@frederickeily9617]

Buy back would be the simplest for everyone because if the dealership has to replace the engine there will be a back log and errors may be made

[@haroldchristian5212]

Bring back the 5.7 V8!!! Engine is Bulletproof!! Even my 05 4.7 V8 326,000 miles on it with no problems!!

[@GlenGGonsalves]

I went with a 2024 4 runner… It’s a dinosaur but I’m hoping for the reliability we know and enjoy.

[@TundraDude34]

The 4.0 V6 is a forever engine 🙌🏼

[@philiptarnaski1667]

All of the above 👍 and of course the V8 👍👍

[@alexleschhorn]

Does the v8 fit on the 22?

[@Tokenblkguy7470]

They offer an extended warranty so I know I’m covered for 10 years and I’ll finally go get one.

[@srandyt2]

I agree with the "replace the engine" AND "extend the warranty", with conditions. Cannot just replace just a short block, unless you want to see the truck back when the metal laying in the top end washes back down to the crankcase. Conditions: inspect all the engines and immediately replace all the ones that have metal present. Ones with no metal should be subject to some reasonable interval reinspection. As for the just put a V8 back in it, there could be some compromise reached by putting in a 4.6 like the one in the GX. Surely that thing could be tuned to put out more that 302 hp. Caveats: do you trust any dealer to give you an honest result. They have to allow some interaction with the owner. Can you trust just an inspection of oil drained from the engine, or do you need to see the oil screen in the pump inlet screen?

[@davebadgley8898]

1st,Extended warranty, If motor goes bad, 2nd, Full replacement.. 3rd, offer the 5.7L V8 as an option.

[@ksorsomeplace]

I always hear emission mentioned. Would be a great topic to do a deep dive into. I look at the stickers and the emissions don't vary much and neither does the fuel economy. So, why are these emissions such a factor in engine choice?

[@williamsmiley16]

Well i traded in a 2019 tundra for a 23 tundra limited trd off. 100% satisfied with the 23 over the 19. 0 issues with mine until i watch videos like this lol

[@redroosterranches]

I kinda like the idea of just a straight swap on the engine. It does seem to be the easiest. I know everybody would love to have the V8 back, but I really don’t honestly see that happening. The engine itself at this V6 comes from the Lexus LS 500 originally is a very reliable engine. It’s just unfortunate that this problem has come up.

[@scottmendoza8989]

No you're wrong about the LS they still have problems to this day with that motor

[@redroosterranches]

@@scottmendoza8989 google search shows only recall on that model year is air bags issue and a Reddit consumer reliability shows satisfied owners and if anyone is going to shit post its Reddit.

[@stevieray1828]

​@@scottmendoza8989let's see how Toyota handles the manufacturing issue before making judgements on the motor. The engine performance is great, and hopefully they get it right.... If they don't and we get FACTUAL information on the DESIGN failing, then that sucks. Until then, we need to look at the facts and stop listening to people pretending to know what they are talking about and people spreading misinformation based on wives tails and rumors.

[@redroosterranches]

@@scottmendoza8989 not sure where my previous comment went to, but as I was saying, the only recall notice on the model year of LS 500 that this engine is based on is about air bags not deploying on the passenger side. A quick Reddit search shows no engine complaints over longevity for that year either and if anyone is going to crap all over a product online it’s going to be on Reddit, plenty of trolls.

[@doom4067]

I strongly doubt they'll go back to the V8, but I wonder if this will create a significant aftermarket for a V8 swap.

[@johnshaft5613]

I think everyone knows what Toyota "should" do. At a bare minimum, completely new engines (long blocks) in every affected vehicle. I'm just afraid there are so many vehicles involved that it would be too much of a financial blow to them to do so. They might eventually come to the conclusion that they have to take the hit and do the right thing to remain viable as a company. But Toyota will only be dragged to that point, kicking and screaming.

[@wfthrock]

I think the Buy-Back option is the BEST option for Toyota to issue. Yes it will hurt the company, but customer satisfaction and “perception” of a company who cares is way more important now. Tundra as a truck will really be hurt.

[@OhioStateJK]

Is the recall for all trims or is it for SR5’s and up? Is the SR effective?

[@doom4067]

Right now they're not recalling the hybrid engine under the concept that it can make it to the side of the road if the gas engine fails.

[@db3837]

Here is my solution, Unlimited engine warranty provided the owner followed all the recommended maintenance, also if the engine does fail a full engine replacement not a short block. Short blocks introduces too much risk for future engine failure, especially with vehicle technicians who are not used to rebuilding engines on a regular basis.

[@jasonsantelli6588]

This will doom the Tundra as a whole, you think it was rarely updated before, now, just wait…

I am a 67 year old owner of many makes and models. Opening these up for short block is not the answer in a new vehicle,once any engines cherry is busted its never the same.I have seen human error first hand.

[@Tr0utp0nD]

I think the best end game is that Toyota comes out with a 2nd generation V35A-FTS with a beefed up bottom end, make darn sure that something else will blow before the bearing quits, even if not necessary from an engineering prospective.

[@ksorsomeplace]

One thing about it, likely not all 98,000 and some odd thousand are affected. It would be great if they could narrow down the included VIN's.

[@AggiePhil]

My 20k mile 2020 5.7L is now worth more than a brand new 2024 Hybrid. Crazy! And I love it! LOL

[@nickiannotti5632]

Or bring back the v8 with the same hybrid system so then it can meet epa regulations better. And have more power!

[@DUNEATV]

Lifetime powertrain warranty…replace engines as they fail. That will spread out the repair costs…

[@donaldalderman2424]

Problem is that it's a safety recall. They can't sit and wait.

[@donaldalderman2424]

The problem with that is this is a safety recall. They can't sit and wait for it to happen and someone gets killed.
