Toyota Recalls 127,000 Tundra and Lexus SUVs for Engine Debris Risk

Owner notifications are planned by early January 2026 with a fix still in development.

Overview

  • The voluntary safety recall covers U.S. gas-only 2022–2024 Toyota Tundra, 2022–2024 Lexus LX, and 2024 Lexus GX 550 vehicles.
  • Toyota reports leftover machining debris in the twin‑turbo 3.5‑liter V6 can lead to engine knocking, rough running, no‑start conditions, or sudden loss of motive power that raises crash risk.
  • Toyota says it is developing a remedy, and industry reporting indicates long‑block replacements or engine rebuilds are likely based on prior campaigns.
  • Hybrid versions using the same V6 are not included in this campaign, and reporting notes NHTSA has not required their addition.
  • Owners can verify involvement via Toyota.com/recall, Lexus.com/recall, or NHTSA’s VIN lookup, with some reporting the recall already visible in the Toyota app.
