Engine Bearing Failure (V35A Twin-Turbo V6)
Machining debris from the manufacturing process may contaminate the crankshaft main bearings in the new V35A-FTS twin-turbo V6 engine. Over time, this debris causes bearing wear that leads to engine knocking, rough running, stalling, or complete engine failure.
Toyota issued recall 24TA07 to replace the engine in affected 2022-2023 Tundra vehicles. Approximately 102,000 vehicles are involved. Dealers replace the entire engine assembly free of charge. Check your VIN at Toyota.com/recall.
Est. Cost: Covered under recallThrottle Hesitation and Surge
Some 2022-2023 Tundra vehicles exhibit drivability issues including hesitation from a complete or rolling stop (worse when the vehicle is cold) and a surge condition in 8th gear at 40-50 percent throttle application.
Toyota issued TSB T-SB-0111-22 in December 2022 addressing drivability-related conditions. The dealer reprograms the Engine Control Module and Transmission Control Module with updated calibration software.
Est. Cost: $0 under warrantyFront Brake Noise
The front brakes produce a squealing or grinding noise when driving forward or in reverse. The noise can be present from new and is not related to brake pad wear. It is caused by the brake pad compound interaction with the rotor surface and lack of adequate shim dampening.
Toyota issued a TSB in November 2025 acknowledging brake noise on 2022-2026 Tundra models. The fix includes replacement with updated front brake rotors and an improved shim kit. Contact your dealer for the updated brake components.
Est. Cost: $0 under warranty; $300 - $600 if out of warrantyElectronic Power Steering Warning Light
Some 2022 Tundra and Tundra TRD Pro vehicles may display a yellow Electronic Power Steering (EPS) warning light on startup with DTC C05D604 and/or C15D704. The steering may temporarily feel heavier than normal until the light clears.
The dealer reprograms the EPS ECU with updated software. If the warning persists, the EPS motor or torque sensor may need replacement. Toyota issued a TSB with revised diagnostic procedures for this condition.
Est. Cost: $0 for software update; $500 - $1,200 for EPS motor replacementReverse Lamp Moisture Intrusion
Moisture can enter the reverse lamp housing causing both reverse lights to stop working. This reduces rear visibility when backing up in low-light conditions and can fail state safety inspections.
Toyota issued a recall (NHTSA 24V-668) for certain 2022-2025 Tundra and Tundra Hybrid vehicles. Approximately 443,000 vehicles are involved. Dealers replace the affected reverse lamp assemblies free of charge.
