Glad I didn’t! Tundra is now on the third recall for the 2022 tundra .
Waste port on turbocharger
Auto window rolling up and down on their own
But the doosey is the back axle falling out going down the road
There’s a video on you tube Weeelll there was Toyota paid millions to get it removed!
Fishing buddy of mine is plant manager at Toyota. He says it’s another problem after another week after week That’s one reason you can’t find one they are going back to the factory !!

They probably said a newer used tundra. Anyone who buys a first or second year model anything is asking for it.

The first model year of major design changes is going to have bugs and that happens pretty much across the board regardless of brand names. Toyota is not exempt and has had some issues over the years like rusted out frames but they have a fairly decent track record of stepping up to the problem and putting a reasonable action and recovery plan in place. One of my Tundras has an emissions air system problem that they fixed at no cost to me after the original warranty had run out. They also paid for a rental truck for me to use while the factory that made the offending pump was recovering from the tsunami in Japan. And they extended the warranty for that problem far above the normal mileage and years in service.

I had a power steering pump develop a few slow leak after the warranty expired on a Tacoma and that was replaced at no charge to me as well. My experience with Toyota has been that they bend over backwards to solve issues while the US auto makers hide behind the fine print to deny warranty service or even admit that there is a problem. GM claimed my new van ate up a set of tires in 10,000 miles because the ball joints were worn out but refused to replace them or adjust for tire wear because ball joints are wear parts. Ball joints that wear out in 10,000 miles are defective period, end of discussion. Such crap as that is why I will never own another GM product. Similar experience with Ford. Have never owned a Chrysler product but have heard the war stories on those also.

But I was not ready to jump on the major redesign of the 2022 Tundra either. In a year or two, we will see how the new drive train shakes out.

Just wait tell that Chevy gets a little ware on it. But you will likely trade it off like you did the last one before that point.

Well if it stays in the garage it should last forever. I once thought I had enough 357 mG brass to last my whole life. Turns out I was wrong on that. I hope you live long enough to wear out that one and several more.

If your buddy is a plant manager that may explain a lot

He’s the manager at their subsidiaries plant that makes transmission housings , throttle bodies, and one other part fir the tundra He gets all the inter company emails and updates Whete he works is owned by Toyota Their production depends on the finished product down the line . Toyota will start out needing 850 parts a day on Monday but by Tuesday they might lower it to 100 or cancel it all together That’s been going on for months since the new truck came out

I have a buddy that fishes the bassmaster elite series, local guy. He is a Chevrolet man. Drives a 2021 silverado all over the country pulling his bass boat. This week he is putting his second torque converter in his transmission. 6 speed auto, somewhere around 50k miles on the truck. I told him he is stupid for not driving a Toyota with all of the incentive and bonus money they pay out to the tournament winners. I think this will be his last Chevrolet


Gotta live up to the nickname...
