- Update on the Lemon law buyback process that I did on the 2022 Toyota Tundra with catastrophic engine failure. And why I saw the 4runner was bad.

Thank you for posting this. The best advice I would give people as someone who has used the lemon law in Calipornia and Texas and won both times: People need to keep records on every single visit for every issue. If a dealer tries to hand you your keys and tell you that you can take your car without paperwork, you must demand that they give you paperwork that notates exactly what services and inspections were performed, this is the only way you can utilize the Lemon Law.
Excellent info here. I did also provide proof of all the times I took my truck in for other issues. (that they didn't fix)
Damn but you never showed the truck at the shop once ?
Or at least show us the paperwork
Power steering failure has nothing to do with the engine liar
😂😂😂
That’s how I got a 2017 Forester bought back after a a year and 10K miles. Multiple SRS warning lights, multiple trips to the dealer, last one the car was in 42 days waiting on a part and I gave it back. Got everything back but a $900 mileage charge which was fine for a year’s use. I was disappointed with its performance anyway, so it was a silver lining for me.
My Toyota master tech said not to buy a tundra right now. They’re not ready yet. He had two engine issues of low oil pressure. New bottom ends didn’t solve problem. I’d wait another year so they can work out the problems.
Good advice
Who is your tech?
I thought Toyota didn’t depreciate they hold their resale value . I will never buy one after hearing about that
Meeting emissions, power requirements, C.A.F.E MPG etc. is really starting to squeeze everyone.@@user-kv1qs4tv2z
I have a 2021 trd pro and I never gonna change it for a new model. I knew I knew that Toyota was going to suck after
My toyota dealer service writer told me they've had 3 tundra's with catastrophic engine failure. He said, do not buy one for at least a year or two. I'm so happy I have a 2018 with a 5.7. Many more miles to go. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks for the comment! 100% do not buy a turbo six. The EPA is the true killer of good vehicles. They impose rules beyond practical technologies
@@TheGaginatorthat is the reason we have cvts, 10 speed transmissions, turbos, and AFM technology. None as reliable as previous tech.
Even a turbo diesel? like the Chevy 3.0?@@TheGaginator
My 2018 Tundra engine just blew at 77,000 miles so don't count on it lasting either. Barely out of warranty and fighting to get Toyota corporate to cover repairs, they are the worst to deal with and completely unreasonable (if you can get a response at all). Dealer pitching in for repair and has been great, but will not touch another Toyota as long as I live. Piece of expensive crap with undeserved reputation. That said, the reason I bought one was because a friend had over 250,000 miles on his. Luck of the draw some times, but will never enter the Toyota draw again.
@@BayokCollagen did you buy it new? I’m curious about oil changes, oil weight and climate. I’ve considered going to 5-30 since I live in the south.
Right now the Naturally Aspirated Toyota Tundras and 4Runners are looking really good right now even if they are used/pre-owned 😊
Yup, get something older. The EPA is the true killer of vehicles. Forcing manufacturers to conform the regulations that technology hasn’t caught up to.
I filed for a Lemon Law on a 2011 Silverado 1500 (5.3). The day I got home with it, a check engine light came on. I went to the dealer and they took care of it. A couple of hundred miles later, check engine light, and the same issue. Replaced something and went on my way. A couple of hundred miles, check engine light. This was all for the same thing, high oil pressure. The fourth time, I was offered a new engine and said no. The process was pretty easy, although we bought the truck to move across the country in less than 2 months time. We were able to get a new one before we left and never had a check engine light again.
Thanks for the comment, people need to know they this is an option. Don't let the dealers screw you over!
But how could this happen??? That 5.3 doesn’t have a turbo!
Wow! Just found your channel and saw video#1 this week. Didn’t expect chapter 2 to be the buyback! Sorry that happened.
Thanks for the comment, it was a wild ride for sure...
Thanks for the update! Definitely has me thinking about how to move forward. We really just want a new truck. Love the Tundra and I don’t want to lose on the deal. 🤔 I guess we will see what Toyota decides to do.
best of luck!
Thank you for posting this Gage. I’m sure I’ll need it in a couple years with my ‘24 Tacoma.
I hope not!
Thanks for the update and advice. Glad you got what you wanted out of this by getting rid of the truck and that feeling unease. Hopefully this doesn't put a bad taste in your mouth on the tundra. I enjoy my 22 limited trdoffroad with 41k on her now. Looking forward to a 2025 once my lease is up.
I'm sure you are safe with 41k miles. All of the failures happened below 25k miles from what I now know about them. I still own other Toyotas, I'm just taking my own advice and staying away from smaller displacement turbos when possible
Thank you for clearing that up with the 4 runner cause my wife and I are looking at them. I’ve owned two Tundras and one Tacoma. We also own a 2006 Toyota Corolla that has 200k miles and we are original owners. As far as towing I went with a Super Duty.
Yup, I usually drive an F250, but wanted to give this truck a shot. I change vehicles often, but currently drive a 1997 f150, 1997 Corolla, 2017 Chevy Volt, and a 2008 GMC Denali Yukon
My nephew had to sue Ford under the lemon law for 2 new trucks he bought, a 2004 F150 and a 2021 F350/7.3 (junk motor due to a KNOWN cam/lifter problem) and has had to fight with Ford every step of the way so far with his 2021 F350, Ford REFUSES to admit there is an issue with their 7.3 engines. At least Toyota did the right thing with their lemon law/buyback. Toyota need to get rid of the turbo'd 4 and 6 cylinder engines and go back to a basic v6/v8 engine, those were reliable as a rock
I'll be honest, Toyota did the right thing with the customer service
Did they compensate you for the month u did not have the truck?
Tundra has had issues all along. The Toyota frame replacement program says it all. Tundra has had frame problems from the very beginning.
While it absolutely sucks for this to happen to anyone, people seem to forget that the early years of the previous Gen Tundra had issues with camshafts snapping and air injection pump failing. But because we live now in a world of social media, one guy's experience with a vehicle means that it's happening to every single person.
I do agree with you
Scotty K was right on this issue. He has always stated "don't buy any new vehicles until they have been out for 4 years, even Toyotas"
100%!
Scotty also said turbo engines are junk, I’m selling my entire fleet of turbo cars and trucks now. After 450,000 miles I can’t trust my dodge ram Cummins
I love the idea of having a 4Runner, but my wife hated it after she test drove it once. If you do not like a vehicle during a test drive, that is a pretty good indicator that vehicles is not for you anyways. I totally understand your hate for the 4Runner. We had a 2001 Rav4 and that thing caused headaches after driving/riding for 30 minutes. The seats were horrible for us.
I bet this body style 4runner is great from some people, but yeah it was awful for me.
great video i watched both of them with your tundra sorry u had to go through all that mess i bought a brand new 21 tundra 5.7 just because i was nervous with the new model coming out, not to say my 21 can't crap out who knows these days with any car. but i think u still did the right thing taking the 7 grand hit (ouch) I know it still hurts but what u went through that would have left anyone a bad sour taste. good luck to u on whatever u purchase next.
Thanks for the kind words. I searched really hard for a 2021 truck when I was buying this one, but at the time a 2021 with a 5-7 was actually more expensive than a brand new 2022, so I went that route. I didn't take my own advice about staying away from first-year vehicles but oh well.
@@TheGaginator 2018+ low mile Tundra pricing is pretty good now. Low mile no stories Limited Crewmax are $40-$45k. 2018 MY is when they did the final update to the 2.5 gen Tundra which carried them to end of production. I have a 2nd gen Crewmax w/129k miles. I was going to swap it for a 2018, but $20k for an interior upgrade didn't seem wise to me since mine is still like new inside, outside, and interior. I did a full fluid change and swapped out the crap front rotors and pads for EBC units. It made a world of difference over the stock pie tins that came on it. 12 years, 129k miles, and the only repair was a $20 clockspring for the horn.
The big issues with them are 1)Cam tower leak. $3k to fix (both sides, the cost is nearly entirely labor) if it hasn't already been done. 2)SAIS pumps. Secondary Air Intake System pumps. A company makes bypass kit for them for $450 and you will never have to worry about it again. That's it.
I put my name on the list for a 2023 Tundra, but passed on it when it came in. Toyota missed the mark with it in so many ways, and that's not even considering the engine issues.
This guy covers issues with them pretty well
th-cam.com/video/l2OAHImTgA8/w-d-xo.html
Me too have a 2021 figured same thing. Actually wanted last of the proven and refined Toyota V8's previous truck was 2004 which was flawless (yep gave it up). Didn't want to wait 5 years while Toyota works bugs out of new Tundra.
@@tsavo6213 Dang got my 2021 limited/TRD Tundra 4x4 it has mild factory lift actual real leather seats and other goodies kind of good stuff from both. which has 19k miles on odometer, was Toyota certified by dealer which auto extends warranty. It was $47k. Figured it was under priced, since I had been looking for years. Then I bought 8.5 year Toyota warranty (not third party actual toyota warranty) I'm to old to fool with cars anymore. This is probably my last truck so wanted a good one. sold my 2004 Tundra for more then I paid for it 14 years ago. It was a gem, had zero problems with it for 14 years.
Man im glad you cleared up that 4runner comment. I was wondering about it in the first video.👍
Haha yeah, I know I made a lot of people upset by not explaining.
Bummer that you had all of these problems. I recently took my 2019 Tundra TRD in for a routine service and I asked the advisor if the 3rd generation Tundra issues were sorted out. “Absolutely not” was the reply. It’s really too bad. This is my second Tundra and they have been absolutely fantastic. We also have a 2018 Camry with the same experience. I’m left wondering on which brand to go with when it comes time to replace my 19.
At this point, Older vehicles are the way to go. I went back to older cars again. I would love to get a 17-21 Tundra, but they are too expensive
What's gone wrong with your Camry?
@@0HOON0 Not a thing. Our 2018 Camry has been absolutely fantastic too. Sorry for any confusion.
That horrible 2023 4runner with its NA 4.0v6 would have never broken down at 16k miles its not uncommon to see them with 300k plus ,brace yourself there is more to come from that tundra engine
100% correct on that one. I wish the 4runner was comfy, but my body just wasn't compatible with it
What did you replace the Tundra with since they bought it back?
I have an older GMC Yukon Denali now. Along with other smaller cars
I’m not a fan of the 10k oil changes they recommend !
Oh no no. That's an engine killer for some. At my shop the only time we recommend more than 5k intervals is hybrid vehicles.
After all the re calls last year from almost every auto maker, You can’t expect to buy a new car and for it to be reliable anymore. Buy a good user car and take care of it.
100%! That's what I've told people for years, and I didn't follow my own advice haha.
This concerns me because I have a 2022 1794. No issues and mine was built in February 2022. What will you replace it with?
I went back to older vehicles. Older GM , Ford and Toyota are my current daily drivers
Thank you for all the information
I hate they don't give someone MSRP.
To me that is ridiculous when you motor blows...
Toyota is wanting to do the same to mine small block rebuild.
If they give me a big warranty on Power train I may keep it.
If not I will be trading ot trying for the buy back as well.
If it goes into a lemon law.
They have had mine for a week now and haven't done anything to it yet, except takinf off the oil pan.
They did find metal all in the oil pan...
Thank again for helping me out.
MUCH THANKS!!!
Praying for a good solution for you! They gave me a lifetime warranty from the valve covers to the axles, but I just didn't want to deal with them any longer
Good to know
Thanks brother
@@TheGaginator so what vehicle are you looking to buy in the future? Are you done with Toyota in general?
First model year issues.. Don’t forget the 5.7 tundra had many issues as well. Camshafts,air pumps ext. The difference is Toyota will sort them out and this engine will be reliable. My 5.7 tundra had many issues. Air injection pumps were 4k to replace back in 2013.
True comment there. First year for everything sucks
The hewitt bypass kit is $400 or so. Try that next time.
My 2004 was flawless. bought it at 70k miles used, drove it to 120k miles. Zero problems, actually sold it for more then I paid for it ,14 years ago. Ran super smooth almost couldn't tell it was running sometimes. And I did use it as a truck, might have overloaded it more then a few times, I fix and repair homes so I hauled a lot more then other guys would normal. Fingers crossed on my newer 2021
You're not alone with '22+ engine failure. Plenty of videos about it. My brother's previous-gen Tundra 4.6L locked up at less than 1,000 miles. He did the buyback and bought a Titan that's been bulletproof. You're also not alone with 4Runner being uncomfortable. I had an '18 Off-Road Premium. My wife could never find a comfortable seating position, so I sold it after six years for what I paid new.
That says alot for the 4runner holding it's value! I've have several older models and enjoyed them
Same thing just happened to my 2022 Toyota tundra SR5 TRD off road at 20k miles hit me with all this but my truck is a lease under warranty I don’t think I’ll be keeping it it still currently in the shop
They gave me a lifetime warranty, and I still had them buy it back from me
in 2010 i bought a small house 1800sqft for $72,000 after the realestate collapse. i wont be buyin a new truck anytime soon.
Same. The house i bought in 2010 for 96k sold for 315k in 2022...
@@TheGaginator I bought mine in California for 32K in 1964, it's now 1,110,000. Go figure.
Hi, left a comment on your other video, my Pro4X has the zero gravity seats and they very comfortable. I have not had back surgery but I do have back problems and these seats are great. Another plug for the Titan. Good luck
Thank you for this advice!!
man all that sucks when you buy a new truck and this happens, i got a 2020 f150 ok so far but feels like im riding in a time bomb
It is pretty upsetting when my $60k truck lasts 16k miles. My $8k truck is great with 145k miles, and my $600 truck daily drives my son with 265k miles....
I agree, the 4Runner seats are medieval. New and older models.
This ^
Maybe I missed it but what did you get instead to replace the Tundra or did you just stick to another car you already have?
I usually have 4 or 5 vehicles at any time. I just went back to driving older stuff. My current drivers are 2008 GMC Yukon, 96 Corolla, 03 Jeep Wrangler, and 1991 Ford Festiva.
Toyota should stick to what was working well. Why change when working as it should just to save a little fuel? Ridiculous. I own a Camry SE 2020 bought new and no problems at all and I love it. .
I agree! The non turbo stuff is very reliable, I truly believe the EPA is the killer of vehicles.
I love what you do for me," Toyota"
I do not know about lemon law on your neck of the woods here after 30 days of the vehicle being down. It is an automatic buy back. You have to apply for
That is accurate ^
Are the 23 tundras more reliable than the 22
Some say yes, others say no. I wouldnt buy one.
Good for you! God Bless.
Thanks!
Good you got some money back, on a vehicle dealers are refusing to buy nor accept as trade-in.
Dude the Tundra fiasco is crazy right now!!
toyota tundra forum has a spreadsheet of V35-FTS failure and out of 76 reported cases, seven were 2023 model, one 2024 and the rest is 2022. Three of the 2022 had failure twice. Definitely something happening at 2022 model.
Also majority close to fifty of the cases had oil change at 10,000mi (which is not good). The rest of them that had 5000mi oil change, most of them again was 2022 models.
Also detuned SR variant had three cases
There was two LS500 and three or four LX600 case also. Have not heard anything about LC300 or Hybrid Sequoia interestingly. Now for the LC300 probably because those are sold in world markets primarily in diesel or 4.0L V6 out of a current 4Runner
In these high performance turbo-engines I would change the oil every 5000km not 5000mi (so just over 3000mi)
I think it is a combination of several factors.
1. engine design / materials
2. too much power from small engines
3. oil type and change intervals.
Even though 10k is much too long for an oil change interval, a good engine will not blow up because of it. My truck has 3 oil changes before it blew up.
Do they reimburse sales tax and all that. That’s my biggest question
Yes, but they still hit me with $8k in depreciation .
Do they gave you the option of a vehicle replacement? I’ve just purchased a 2024 Tundra TRD PRO in San Antonio, drove the truck to my home town El Paso Tx.. 600 miles.. at 800 miles Truck started to send ASB, Pre Collision System, VSC, Failure alerts, took it to the dealer, it’s been there for 2 weeks they disassembled the whole dash, and they called me today saying the issue is the differential and will need to be replaced and it take 3-4 weeks,, I’m wondering if I can ask Toyota to replace the vehicle with a new truck.. Any advice? I already issue the claim to Toyota Corporate.. waiting on them to call me.
They did not offer a vehicle replacement for me. If the truck has been at the dealer for more than 30 days, you can ask them to buy it or replace it under lemon law
What truck will you buy next?
I went back to a GM. 6.2L Yukon Denali
Crazy how these Tundras are blowing up engines. Every other post on the facebook page for Tundras has these issues. Tons on Tundra forums. What is going on Toyota?
All years or just 22's?
It is really unbelievable
I've only heard of two 2023 trucks with the issue
Chevys, dodges and fords blow motors every day.. people just try and make a big deal when it happens to a Toyota.
My motor blew and mine is a 2023
That’s funny when I talked to Toyota the dealership they said it’s just haters online and any problems they have they corrected it so I have a brand new tundra hopefully at last me a long time I did not get the hybrid, but I can’t imagine a lot going on with a 3.5 Ltwin turbo V6 it’s not that complicated
Do you remember what number or letter your truck's vin number started out with? A lot of talk on these forums recently and apparently its the ones built in Mexico are the target for the recalls as they're narrowing origin of the 22-23 models it came from. I'm sure there are some from the US/Canada but the vins starting with 3's are being labelled as the worst ones, information comes from the internet so it must be true.............
I have it written down somewhere. But there is now at least 1 confirmed case of a 2024 with the same engine failure
@@TheGaginator Those 24's came from that plant and shipped to Texas. My 24 was built in 10/23 no issues yet but I'm full sending because of warranty I'll just get something else down the road. I thought this was behind me coming from a Ford and Jeep but guess not lol.
Sir is there a way you can send me info on that lawyer , my tundra’s engine blew up yesterday. Service department told me Toyota is stopping all work on repairs .
Oh no!!!! File Lemon law ASAP. I was assigned this lawyer, i did not find him myself.
For the lemon law what kind the lawyer do you use .
If you can share .
I having the and possibly case with my.
Thank you
When i filed the paperwork, the state assigned my case to someone. Then Toyota took over and bought it back.
How can you use the lemon law if it's still running? Doesn't it have to fail more than once?
It varies state to state and could be as simple as a length of time that it was broken (not useable). To be sure of the law, research your states laws.
What is going to be your next choice?
I usually have 5 or 6 vehicles at any time, Currently my daily drivers are a GMC Yukon XL AWD with the DOD deleted, 1996 Corolla, and a 2004 Jeep Wrangler
What’s the average miles that the tundras are breaking down at?
8-25k
I could never trust the vehicle again with failure at such low miles. In my opinion, this was right decision.
Yup, I just couldn't trust it. For $60k, I want a truck I can trust. It doesn't hurt that bad when my Cheap trucks break.
What replacement vehicle are you getting or not?
I went back to older cars. Vehicles that I actually recommend to others haha. I go through cars very quickly, at the moment I am driving a 2008 GMC Yukon, 1996 Corolla, 2017 Chevy volt, and some classic cars. I knew better here, but wanted to try the truck anyway.
That sucks! Toyota’s reliability is becoming questionable. They need to get it together or they will lose customer loyalty. Owner of 20 Tacoma and 24 Camry!
I agree. I still drive Toyotas, just older ones now.
You scared me, I thought it was a Tacoma 🌮
Man, I hope those things rock! The EPA is killing us though with all these small turbo engines. Not Great for reliability
I can not believe how many customers are accepting the solution Toyota is providing. Brand new crate engine is what I would demand or buy it back.
The Gen3 Tundra’s are junk. My 2022 seized the engine at 28,000 miles. My buyback took six months and Toyota customer service was absolutely worthless.
Dang man sorry to hear that. Mine was ok enough, but also I didn't really care that much. I have other vehicles.
F150 6 seater has a really comfy seat
Thanks for the tip! I'm looking for a 2015-2017 F150 with the 5.0 V8
Next time buy made in Japan
Hope so
There have now been documented failures (same engine) in the Lexus LX600. Made in Japan.
I think you would have saved more money by trading up at a highly rated Toyota dealership (and with Toyota Customer Care’s help) for a 2024 Tundra and putting your upgrades on the new truck. The motor issues have had 2 years of changes to work out the problems. Purchasing a first year of production vehicle (especially with a new motor/drivetrain platform) is highly unrecommended with ANY vehicle manufacturer. I have owned Toyota products for 25 years and Toyota quality has been sliding downward especially in their new turbo motors being introduced. They have been focusing most of their attention on hybrids, which are filled with their own drawbacks down the road. Older hybrid vehicles with high mileage develop battery pack reliability issues, and are expensive to rebuild/replace. Now picture the government push to Electric Vehicles would be a disaster for most people, who rely upon their vehicles to get them from Point A to Point B with as low drama as possible.
This is good advice, but there is no way i would get back into a newer truck. I would have traded it for a 2021 or older, or maybe one of the Prime cars for my wife. I has more equity in the truck than the value of a new prius prime anyway.
I was going to give a thumbs up to the vid only to find thumbs down was the only option available, so i guess Toyota got to you tube before me.
Never modify a vehicle lift kits big tires is not a good idea
If you do it within reason, there is no issue. If you want to do it, stick with a size that is sold by dealers and covered by their warranty. This truck for example had the same size lift kit as a local dealer and I verified warranty
Can be a bad luck man, i feel my 23 trd pro so comfy!!!!
Maybe so
How long did you have you’re truck for?
74 days
So what, if anything did you end up getting?
I went back to older vehicles. 2008 GMC yukon, and an older corolla.
What a giant headache on a bought new 16k miles.
It was extremely frustrating. I couldn't believe it was actually happening.
I’d just look for a good used 21 and prior.
100% at the time that I purchased this truck the 2021 models were selling for more than a new one
Companies today seem more concerned with pennies than customers.
Agreed.
Fourth gen Tacoma owners/lovers take note. Your “gloating” days may be numbered with the wham bam thank you ma’am approach that Toyota sales department are shoving down consumers throats. 😳
Never buy a fancy turbo charged engine with computers, have them swap the engine out for a Chevy 454 V8 with a carburetor…turbos are way to new they have only been used for over 80 years! I’m sure Toyota is recalling ever single one of the millions of new model pickup trucks and they will swap the turbo engine with a 1970 V8. Of course because Scotty Kilmer says turbos are junk we all must believe him, because of your video I’m selling my 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel Cummins turbo with 450,000 miles because “turbo engines are junk”. I’m selling my 2016 Subaru STI with turbo engine, my 86 Buick GN with V6 turbo, my wife’s Honda CRV with 80,000 miles has a turbo zero problems but I’m trading it in for a 1981 Cadillac with a good old American V8. Every single Toyota product is trash and junk since 1 guy has had an engine issue with a first year model!
100%!!! Im back to driving my 1972 AMC, 1954 Plymouth, 1997 Ford. My newest vehicle is a 2008 6.2L GMC Yukon
@@TheGaginator so I should sell my Dodge Ram turbo diesel and my grand national?
@@charlieb308 Keep the TravelAll.
Time is money
100%
Always wait a couple years let them work out the problems never never get a brand new car from a fresh redesign getting a new one but two years later
100% agreed, and has always been my advice as well. Even the 2024 is having this issue
So, it's kind of like they prorated it.
Yeah I guess so haha
Your audio level is very low compared to other channels.
I was able to get it fixed in my videos after this one, Thanks for the comment!!
Toyota's PR campaign is very effective you can't find any news about their crappy product.
Crazy
It is time for a *TOTAL RECALL.*
yup
Turbo's etc.....yuk
The EPA is the true killer of vehicles. Forcing manufacturers to conform the regulations that technology hasn’t caught up to.
That's bs man, freaking Toyota should have at least given you back your full purchased price on it just for your inconvenience.
I agree. I didnt care enough and just wanted to move on. My wife was PISSED, but money isn't everything. My time and happiness are worth something also. I am so glad to be rid of the headache
Where all the Toyota last 500,000 mile guys at? Lol. I been saying all companies going the cheap route. cars are crap anymore, no cars ,trucks are built to last anymore. Every single company is having problems since covid. Cheap parts, not enough labors, they cutting corners with cheap parts. Dont buy any car from 2020 on up.
100%!!! The amount of 2019+ auto failures we see at my shop is unreal
This makes me not want to buy new trucks ever again had a 2022 Nissan Frontier Pro4x that i sold just before the market dipped was tired of using my work truck most of the time and having the frontier sit in the driveway not being used Although i do miss that truck that Frontier had some cheap parts to it door handles were the cheapest plastic pieces of junk ive ever seen used for a door handle on a truck my work truck 2011 chevy silverado is in my opinion a way better truck and i own it out right no truck note i would get something a little older if i were you the older tundras are great trucks and chevy and nissan trucks are also good trucks too
The new stuff seems so bad. I went back to 15 year old (and older) vehicles
Gah this just keep getting worse. Toyota went full no lube
Seriously, it's wild
Toyo 💩💩💩 always had problems
This is gonna kill Scotty K!
yup...
You bought a GAYOTA pavement princess
Maybe some are, but not mine. I used my stuff. Did the complete Medano pass in a littler over 18hrs including camping. That truck had more pinstriping than a Suzuki samurai at the deer lease when I sold it haha.
Always hated Toyotas !
I've had almost 20 of them, and liked the older stuff for sure
@@TheGaginator well depends who you talk to! If you’re always pulling a heavy trailer there gutless an poor handling weight. You push that V 6 to hard I’ve seen the Toyota engines blown head gaskets.
You totally lucked out. After you modified that truck extensively. Toyota per their contracts, could have simply said engine failure was due to mods, which it may have been. But Toyota does treat their customers right, I only buy Toyota and Lexus only. If it would have been the other Ford dodge chevy none of them would have paid off. Curiuos did you pull all the after market Chinese bolt on stuff before you took it to Toyota dealer for pre inspection? Or they told you to take it off after inspection
None of the parts on my truck voided the warranty. The warranty allow lift kits up to 3inches or so. They didn;t care about any of it
@@TheGaginator i'm going to check my Tundra docs. I want to see where Toyota writes in the Manual . Owner is allowed to install lift kits this will not void warranty" . Just curious I really want to see that in manual
Sounds like Toyota can decide like I said TOYOTA values their customers you lucked out. Terms And Conditions Of Toyota Warranty
Understanding the Toyota factory warranty coverage is crucial for Toyota owners. The Toyota New Vehicle Limited Warranty provides coverage for various components and systems of your vehicle for a specific period. It is important to note that any modifications made to your Toyota, such as installing a lift kit, may affect your warranty. While the use of high-quality aftermarket parts and accessories may not necessarily void the entire warranty, it is essential to understand the specific terms and conditions.
Identifying scenarios where modifications may affect warranty claims is necessary to avoid potential issues. Toyota considers modifications that impact safety systems, drivetrain, suspension, or other vital components as factors that may affect your warranty claims. These modifications can potentially void the warranty for the affected parts or systems. Therefore, it is crucial to consult your Toyota dealership and thoroughly review the warranty terms and conditions before making any modifications to your vehicle. This will ensure that you are aware of the potential impact on your warranty coverage.

While some manufacturers may claim that modifications caused "X" to fail there are laws stating that burden of proof is on the manufacturer; then this usually becomes an attorney and "expert witness" opinion pissing match where it will cost them more money in the end and usually manufacturers will back off and just replace the vehicle once it goes there, unless the modifications are so blatantly poor quality and could, without a doubt, cause issues. Not really the case here, bigger tires and a lift will not cause a spun bearing.
