- The defect
- Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Tundra and Lexus LX600 vehicles equipped with a V35A engine. Debris from the manufacturing process may contaminate the engine and cause the main bearings to fail, which can result in an engine stall and loss of drive power.
- What it can cause
- A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the engine assembly, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed between December 17, 2024 and February 19, 2025. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 24TB07/24TA07 and 24LB04/24LA04.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 102,092 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 92% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Toyota vehicles have been recalled over the engine and engine cooling 11 times before this, most recently in September 2021 as 21V734000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 4 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 833 complaints with NHTSA, 170 of them before this campaign was filed. 88 of those name the engine and engine cooling, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in January 2022, 2 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 18 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V180000 (seats), 25V767000 (engine and engine cooling), 25V744000 (back over prevention), 25V657000 (back over prevention).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing with NHTSA on May 30, 2024 as campaign 24V381000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
