    Has Toyota even said how they are going to fix this issue? Is it going to be a new engine or a short block replacement? If it was me, I would want a complete new engine as that debris could still be in the used parts, more so for an engine that has already blown the main bearings.

    • @ECPP
      @ECPP  12 วันที่ผ่านมา +10

      I agree, it should be a complete crate unit, but insider info tells me likely only going to be a short block and maybe oil pump and the field will have to assemble. See even the qualifications will differ and quality may be inconsistent. Not a great idea, IMHO

      As an engine builder myself, I wouldn't accept anything but a long-block replacement... unless the dealer is taking the vehicle from my hands when the recall is performed. Whatever debris is floating around in the block can absolutely make it to the heads, and in the event that that happens, you'll be on the hook (and so will your truck 😄) for that repair, which is as costly as the short-block.

I was left stranded across town on multiple occasions & had to be towed to a dealership. Can't say that I trust Toyota quality much these days after that experience. :( Pretty sad, considering that the 2015 Yaris SE hatch 5-MT (with older-school Toyota tech in it) that I owned before it for 4+ years (until someone smashed into it while texting) was a great experience (no problems).

    Being a long time Toyota fan I have to say, they made a callosal mistake by switching the 5.7 to smaller v6+turbos. If they are really serious about MPG, they can just make all the Tundras with lower trim levels and still keep the 5.7 with them. In other word, make them more as work trucks so average commuters are less likely to buy them. This is more environmentally responsible way of doing business w/o all the mandates let along those silly "technology innovations".

    You said the 5.7 had some issues early on...and it did, but weak valve springs arent as bad as a failled main bearing or conrod bearing. The valve springs were addressed and that was it. Removing a cylinder head isnt nearly as bad as literally tearing the front of the truck apart to remove the entire engine. I know Toyota is very very good at resolving issues but these new Tundras will be not touched with a 10 foot pole. Like you said...NEVER BUY anything all "NEW" because you will be the lab rat. I think FORD is the worst for this. The one irony is that the second gen tundra has probably got a boost in value due to its reliability with the 5.7 v8 and 6 speed transmission. My 20 Tundra is my last new truck ever...barring a disaster.

    The reason people are in panic mode is because of social media!!! This recall is getting completely blown out of proportion. If people would take time to read the official documents on the issue instead of listening to 95% of the BS info or content creators that only give the negative side of the issue with no solid facts from what they are saying. Does this recall suck?? Absolutely it does !!! Will Toyota fix it?? I assume once the correct repair method is available they will. To date this recall only affects 1% of the 102000 vehicles recalled ... That is fact in official Toyota documents available online at NHTSA . This is a voluntary recall on Toyota part . So that tells me they are willing stand behind there product and make it right!! They could be like GM with the lifter / camshaft issue they have had since 2007 and once vehicle is out of warranty customer is on the own or like Ford with camshaft phaser issues in the 5.4 v8 and 3.5 ecoboost dating back to 2006 ford had a chance to fix issue when ecoboost first came out in 2011 but continued to use the same crappy phaser design like in the 5.4 and once warranty ran out customer once again left paying. There are countless examples manufacturers leaving customer to deal with there crappy design flaws without recall or help outside of warranty periods. Is Toyota a perfect manufacturer ??? Absolutely not !!! Are that better than most on the market ?? yes ... Is Toyota reputation taking an ass kicking lately ?? YUP !!! Hopefully people can weed though the BS and make a informed decision for themselves !!!

    As a Toyota owner (2023 naturally aspirated RAV4 Adventure series) and having just traded-in our 2022 Tacoma (V6, naturally aspirated) for a 2024 Hybrid Max Crown, I am now concerned about the Crown, (although made in Japan), because Toyota has dropped the ball on the Tundra and the new Tacoma with that 4cyl turbo engine is a lead ballon for Toyota. Having been "convinced" we no longer needed a pick-up, but rather a sedan, I wish we bought a gas (naturally aspirated) 2024 Camry TRD instead of a Crown. By the way, our trade-in 2022 Tacoma TRD Sport never made it to the dealer's lot, it had 5040 miles on it and was sold to someone looking for a low mileage 2022-2023. Only good thing was the trade -in; $2500 more than what we paid for the Tacoma Sport new!

First it was kia/hyundai. Then it was bmw motorrad with the k67 s1000rr bike when it first came out in 2020. Now it's toyota. And they all always cry out - crankcase debris. No. It isn't crankcase debris. It is shit design which hasn't been adequately tested. That's what it is.

      Haha strange times Thomas. Anything older Toyota is insanely reliable like the Toyota 4Runner, V6 Camry, Corolla, V6 Tacoma, V8 Tundra just to list a few, but oddly enough the next generation of turbo engines are needing a little massaging before reliability is hopefully back like before. BMW? Well late model 4 and 6 engines but those V8s I am not sure I will ever trust from Bavaria. The oldies are the goodies for Toyota. How are things with you as well lately? Any more car shopping?

    Toyotas are being built in ALABAMA now!! UGGG.. I'm a Honda fan. I don't like their 1.5 turbo though.. Make sure your Toyota or Honda are built in JAPAN!

    WHAT THE HELL EVER HAPPENED TO, turn on your car with a PHYSICAL ignition key and having a V8 under the hood for extra power (there) when you need it?
