Published by model year, not by VIN — may not apply to this vehicle, or may already have been done. Confirm with a dealer.
The vehicles can contain crankshaft main bearings that have not been properly cleared of machining debris during manufacturing. This contamination can cause the bearings to fail. This can lead to engine knocking, rough running, inability to start, or stalling. If the engine stalls while driving, the sudden loss of power increases the risk of accidents and injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

I CONTINUED INTO THE DESERT UNTIL MY PASSENGER WAS ABLE TO PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK HITTING A FEW TREES AND BUSHES ALONG THE WAY. I THEN WOKE UP WHEN PARAMEDICS AND FIRST RESPONDERS WERE ALREADY THERE. ME AND THE PASSENGER WERE BOTH WEARING OUR SEATBELTS AND MY PASSENGER DID NOT AQUIRE ANY INJURIES. I HAD A SIEZURE TO CAUSE THE ACCIDENT AND HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ONES SINCE THEN A MONTH AGO. THE FRONT OF MY TRUCK WAS MANGLED AND THE FRAME WAS BENT IN TWO PLACES. THE ISSUE IS I SUFFERED 4 FRACTURES IN MY SPINE TOP OF THE LUMBAR AND BOTTOM 3 OF MY THORASIC. I AM CURIOUS AFTER TALKING TO THE MECHANIC WHO LOOKED OVER MY TRUCK AS TO WHY MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING THE ACCIDENT.

We were driving down an unpaved road at 8 mph in 4WDh in our 2019 Toyota Tundra when I heard a couple popping sounds from inside the car. Then it stopped. I opened the passenger side door to get out and check on the truck, and flames were pouring out under the engine. There were 3 of us in the car. We immediately got out and tried to pour water and throw sand on the fire. It grew very quickly, so we ran away. The car was immediately engulfed in flames like something out of a movie with black smoke going high into the air. Within 5-10 minutes, the truck was totally gone. There were no warning signs/lights other than the 2 pops and then fire/explosion. We are very lucky we did not die. We bought it brand new. It was the first new car we’ve ever owned. It was impeccably cared for. We always brought it to the Toyota dealership in Eugene, OR for service. It was there about a month prior to the explosion. During that visit, they replaced the battery as well as dealt with the halogen light recall. Other things were more routine maintenance. We are in shock and do not want this to happen to others. We also do not know what our next steps are, but we wanted your agency to be aware of this issue. The local dealership said it must have been a car defect or bad workmanship at our last service. Either way, it was terrifying.
Intermit message "Trailer disconnect " message causing the trailer braking system to fail when attached to truck. Truck brakes are used to stop trailer at unsafe distances. Several trailers were used to verify. I have attached the fix but Toyota says its warranty issue. This is a "safety" issue. I had my 3 year old son in the truck when i had to apply the brakes and couldn't stop in enough time. The truck brakes could not handle the weight of the trailer hence why the trailer brakes were needed. Please prevent a death.
We had just exited the interstate when my Toyota Tundra stopped. We had it towed to the closest Toyota dealer. We had to have fuel pump replaced. They said the previous year Tundra was recalled for this issue, but ours was not. I just found out that some of the 2019 models had been recalled for this issue. They said my VIN was not recalled. That does not make sense. It was the same problem, same year, just at a different plant. Now we are having other fuel issues and the dealer says it all stems from the replacement of the pump, which we had to pay out of pocket. If we had not just exited the interstate it could have caused a major accident.
The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Tundra. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the engine sounded rough. The check engine warning light was illuminated.

The mechanic referenced NHTSA ID Number: 20V682000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 104,000.
My toyota tundra is having issues with the fuel pump. It is saying I am using e85 fuel when that is not the case. As a result I am having issues with cold start. There are recalls however I am being told that my truck is listed among them despite having the same issue.
The contact owns 2019 Toyota Tundra. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to respond immediately. The contact stated that while driving 40 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle stalled, and approximately thirty seconds later the vehicle worked as intended. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer and was diagnosed and determined that the fuel pump needed to be replaced, and codes were in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V682000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 80,000.
I bought this car in January 2019, and even though it had 210 miles, they sold it to me as new. I think they did something illegal because I have the purchase contract and they didn't put that information there. They put 10 miles and I didn't notice at the time. Also, I have the window sticker and it says the car comes standard with a remote key for entry, and the dealer removed it to make it without one. I'm ashamed I didn't report this sooner. It must be a form of consumer theft, something they only do to protect themselves.
Intermittent message displaying "Trailer Brakes Disconnected" while towing. Trailer lights continued to operate even while message was displayed. On average trailer connected and disconnected every 2-3 minutes
Keep getting the messages "Trailer brake error, if towing come to a stop with manual controls" And "Pre-collision system malfunction" The messages go away usually after restarting the vehicle but eventually comes back on
I had to have the steering rack assembly replaced in my vehicle due to a leak. This is one of the complaints and a recall but I never got a notification.
