Toyota issues a new Toyota Tundra recall and this one also has to do with the V35A twin-turbo V6 engine. The latest recall affects 2022-2023 and 2025-2026 Toyota Tundra pickup trucks with a non-hybrid engine. Here is everything we know so far. Let’s dig in!
This recall is unrelated to the previous main bearing recall. This new recall has to do with a camshaft that may snap while driving. This would result in the loss of motive power and increase the risk of a crash. This new problem may account for some more recent 2025 and 2026 Toyota Tundra engine failure stories.
Toyota says: “Affected camshafts are from one specific production lot from a specific supplier. We estimate that there are approximately 300 affected camshafts that could have been installed in the subject vehicles.“
“All known owners of the subject vehicles will be notified to return their vehicle to a Toyota dealer. The dealer will inspect the camshaft to see if it may be from the affected lot and, if so, the camshaft will be replaced at no cost to the customer.“
It’s somewhat confusing. Toyota is issuing a voluntary recall of 62,000 pickup trucks, but just 300 camshafts may be affected. It may simply mean that Toyota wants to inspect these 62,000 Tundras to make sure the camshafts are not in the this “bad batch”. It’s also not clear how these camshafts will be inspected. Will it be necessary for the engines in the affected to be disassembled to be inspected.
We will provide an update as soon as we have it.
In the meantime, here is a close look at the newest 2027 Toyota Tundra Trail Hunter and the 2027 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro.
