Toyota Expands Twin‑Turbo V6 Recall to 127,000 U.S. Tundra and Lexus GX/LX Vehicles

Toyota has yet to detail the repair, with owner notices planned by early January 2026.

Overview

  • The new campaign covers 2022–2024 Toyota Tundra and Lexus LX models plus the 2024 Lexus GX 550, all with conventional gasoline powertrains.
  • Toyota says leftover machining debris in the engines can cause knocking, rough running, no-start conditions, or a sudden loss of power that raises crash risk.
  • The company is developing the remedy after a 2024 recall led to engine replacements, though it has not confirmed the fix for this expanded group.
  • Hybrid variants that use the same V6 are not included in this voluntary safety recall, and regulators have not required their addition to date.
  • Affected owners will be contacted by early January 2026, can check VINs at Toyota.com/recall, Lexus.com/recall, or NHTSA, and some report seeing the recall in the Toyota app already.
