The old Tacoma was not up to current standards in terms of safety, comfort, tech, and emissions. It badly needed a refresh. The Tundra I would agree but full size pickups are a tough market right now I expect this to be their final Tundra generation.
So, I have a 1998 T100 I bought brand new that now has 280,000 miles on it. 100% built in Japan! Best truck I ever owned! No major issues with engine or drive train and it's a 4 wheel drive. 10 months ago I bought a 2023 Titan Platinum Reserve with the straight V8 engine. No cylinder deactivation, turbochargers, or stop start! Thankfully, I won't be going back to a Yota!!
As a former Nissan sales rep I'm glad people are finally recognizing the value they present. My family has owned Nissans since 1997 3 Pathfinders; 6 Frontiers, an Xterra, various sedans, and a Leaf. Never a major issue. My brother tried a Tacoma once, never again. Toyota will right the ship but Nissan will benefit in the short term and gain some more loyalist.
I had a 91 Nissan Pathfinder and a Nissan Hardbody pickup. I was honestly quite happy with both. You need to be proactive when it comes to rust but they didn't rust any worse than Toyota trucks and SUV's.
@@craigfin3222 but non of those cost 32k to fix like the tundra issue the ones today have. They can’t give these away near me in dfw. One Toyota dealer alone near me has 62 on the lot sitting.
@@DFWrancher Toyota has had other engines blow up, transmissions fail, major rust issues and other costly issues in the past.

So I agree with you, Toyota is not the indestructible brand that many make it out to be.
@rickip1861, what’s wrong? We, consumers, demanding more and more technological “stuff” be put on and in our vehicles which complicates production and build, ensuring more things can go wrong! Plus the ever-stringent emissions government controls/regulations add to this! Simplicity is king! Naturally aspirated engines are much more reliable than hybrids or all-electric ones! Do people not think of (just!) the cost of batteries alone?
Cam bearings aren't getting enough lubercation! The metal fragments are from that . They are lying . They don't know what to do because the entire design is flawed!
My dad had the decision over New 2024 or pre owned 2020 Tacoma. From the Tundra headlines with motor issues it’s no surprise Tacoma will see the same fate. My dad felt the safe bet was to roll with the 3.5L 2020 Tacoma in the end 👍
Toyota family for 20 years. Just traded one in and bought two new Subarus. Toyota just isn’t a value anymore with their poor inventory management, insane prices and falling quality.
I had a 2023 Sequoia Platinum purchased new April 2023. It was a great vehicle, but it developed a jolt/jerk when accelerating between 10-20 MPH, and then when accelerating above 55MPH. Took it in to get it checked out and told by the service department that was normal. It had never happened before? On the day of the Tundra/LX600 recall traded it in for a 2024 4Runner. I will wait until the end of 2025 and hopefully get another Sequoia.
@@patgarrett9454 I got burned on previous purchases of new/first year models 1987 Chevy Barreta, 1994 Honda Accord, 2017 Honda CRV and didn’t expect this to happen to Toyota. It just a matter of time before they recall the 2023 and 2024 Sequoia for the engine issue also. The Sequoia was already recalled for transmission software and I believe it will be recalled again for transmission or differential.
I learned my lesson with regards to Toyota's lower quality standards back when I purchased my new 2020 TNGA Corolla SE sedan in late 2019. Problems & defects galore. Only kept it for about 2 years & 10K miles due to all the issues. Can't say that I trust the brand any longer.
Toyota pushed us away! They completely lost the plot with the new Tacoma. After 25 years of nothing but new Toyota Trucks, Toyota is dead to me. Loving my new V8 F150.
@@willdembik688 the 4.0 is my favorite Toyota engine. I think you can still get a supercharger kit for it too. That would be way better than all this turbo 4 banger crap. Or just take care of it and rack up 500,000 miles.
Ben, You report the Tundra problem with the assumption that Toyota is accurately reporting the root cause of the issue. When Toyota announces their 'fix' for the engine failure, then the root cause should be clearly understood and generally accepted.
If it were machining debris it would be taking them all out. No bearing can tolerate glitter! The problem lies in that girdle assembly. Maybe a tolerance problem under certain loads. Might explain the longer life with the hybrid …. alleviating some of load on low end acceleration. I’d love to see the data on failures and how the trucks were used.
Watched a video last night of a guy who picked up his tundra after having the short block and both turbos replaced. Drove fine til he put it in sport mode and floored it. Blew another engine within an hour of picking it up from getting the first replacement.
@@JoeyB736 Yeah I’m not buying the machining debris. I was in the business for a very long time and even the worst of engine companies were able to flush engines clean of machining debris. Seams out of step with highly modern processes in different factories🤷♂️
Unfortunately most, if not all 2024 Toyota Tacoma buyers/owners are the type of buyers that replace a vehicle every one to two years so having a 4th gen Tacoma that is disposable/throwaway truck is not a concern and Toyota marketing department are primarily geared to those types of consumers.
I’ll happily pay a large premium for a Toyota over a Chevy or especially a Chrysler. But that’s assuming 200,000 trouble free miles. My local Toyota dealer said any car anyone buys with a Toyota badge will get 200,000 miles. They can’t say that anymore.
@@JA-zh5xi they are being forced. GM and Ford pay fines to have a V8 and they can afford them because they sell in higher volume. Head Toyota engineers even admit emissions regs are why they have to move toward down sized turbo motors.
@@TheJoncic Toyota has the opportunity to pay the fine as well. In fact, your point doesn’t make any sense. The dollar value is way less for Toyota because they don’t sell as many trucks and their overall market cap is the largest in the world. They aren’t being forced. They made a poor choice.
Toyota makes more than enough money to cover their loss in rebates and such. Their choices has ruined their consumer trust in their trucks which cost more than the money they are getting from the government or whatever fines they have to pay. I WILL NOT BUY ANY new TOYOTA TRUCKS AND SUV
@JA-zh5xi I don't think the point of the carbon credits is to collect money for the epa. Though I have no doubt they see it as a racket themselves on some level.

I’m not sure if it is fair to place the Tacoma in the same bag of the Tundra today. As you said the anecdotal complaints can’t be compared with the motor total loss of the Tundra.
@@patgarrett9454 not sure if your argument is correct. Motors are different. Main problem that Tundra is having is the motor. Like brothers coming from the same family but with totally different personalities.
I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around the issues with the Tundra. After all, didn’t Toyota build a tundra that went a million miles. They tore that engine down to learn from it and said the bearings were some of the cleanest they had ever seen. Then they make an engine in 2022-2023 with debris causing bearing issues!? Wt heck. I was interested in getting a new gen Tundra but now looking at other options
The Toyota Scout is MIA, All the issues that were pointed out but shouted down and ignored on this new Tundra and its engine and all that has occurred now. They are over priced, and the middle class that use to afford them has been destroyed by federal money printing. These are the issues.
Ben, you failed to mention the now confirmed transmission issues with the NEW Tacoma. When you decide to move to a single platform design that encompasses many vehicle nameplates and problems start to show up, you can pretty much bet it's going to affect everything under that umbrella.
I think this is a real critical moment for Toyota. If they do right by the owners and eat the cost of an actual fix - even if that means complete engine replacement - they can weather this and retain the majority of their buyers. However, if they follow the trend set by other manufacturers and try to leave the buyers holding the bag I foresee a mass exodus from the brand.
I think you should watch the video on the recall by The Car Care Nut to get the real facts on this recall. He is now an independent technician for Toyota who formerly worked in a Toyota dealership. Your guess is purely speculation. The reason the hybrid is not included is because this is a safety recall. The non hybrid trucks could lose power while driving creating a potential for an accident. The hybrids retain power for a short time from the electric motor so that the truck can get off the road. The engines in both trucks are made in the same factory. The TFL incident was a broken automatic differential disconnect. It is designed to disconnect the front differential in the event that something is happening that could damage the differential. If working properly you should be able to engage the front differential after it disconnects. The whole front end did not fall apart. Toyota replaced the entire differential so the engineers could have the old one to investigate. The new Tacoma engines have not experienced an unusual amount of problems. This engine has been used in other Toyota models for a few years now and has been reliable. The biggest issue with the new Tacoma has been the 6 speed manual transmission and a few automatic transmissions. So far only four automatic transmissions issues have been reported to the NHTSA. See Pickup Truck and SUV Talk on UA-cam. TRD Jon has put 10,000 hard miles on his Tacoma with a lot of off road use and the only problem he’s had is that stupid grill shutter. The problem here Ben is that your expressing opinions and speculation with very few facts to back them up. You really need to get your facts straight and put out helpful information!
My neighbor was gonna buy a Sequoia TRD after the engine debacle ,he said not gonna happening this generation reliability is gone in his opinion, I agree was in the Market for a Venza with the price gouging I will be purchasing probably the MITSUBISHI for my wife TOYOTA is not the same company
Toyota upper management has fallen into the maximize profit trap. They will blame someone in engineering but it really is upper management telling them this must be done.
Sure am glad I purchased a new 2nd generation 2021 Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro employing that bulletproof naturally aspirated 5.7 liter V-8 engine and reliable 6 speed Aisan transmission
Youre missing the point ,he is talking abut the new toyota . Yes I sold my Tundra with 180 thousand miles to a friend and its still running strong but the new Tundra is junk
In before the smooth brain idiots who bought one at markup saying the gen 2 had issues too😂😂😂😂. Those teething issues didn’t cost 32k to fix. I can get a crate engine for my 5.7 for the cost just to fix a blown turbo on the gen 3. The engine isn’t the only issue on these, checkout zeta dog production on here. His gen 3 tundra needed multiple rear ends too. Most get the wind rattle too on the windows, even TRDjon got that on his. Just ONE Toyota dealer near me has 62 sitting on the lot here in dfw.
As far as I'm concerned, the last great product they produced was my 2012 Corolla. 172K trouble-free miles and will probably last at least another decade.
Toyota, Ford, Ram…they’re all over priced junk right now. The only 1500 pick up I would consider at this point would be a base model Silverado with the Tubro max 4. Still easy to work on and straight forward.
They have issues but that can be resolved, the real issue is toyota really doesn't realize how bad their pricing is. Trucks are cheaper to build then cars (less interior materials) and everyone knows it but they charge 30 - 40k more than cars. Folks are too smart to fall for this and toyota has the mindset that people will pay whatever they charge.
If Toyota fixes this I expect in 2 years their fanboy PR department will deny it ever happened. Like their rotting frames or horrible seats never happened in their glossed of view of their reliability.
TFL sold their Tacoma. I'm sure it has nothing to do with wanting people to forget about it before the next snowfall, especially since they've kept all their other 2024 model year trucks so far.
Biggest mistake they did was over charge for a 4 cylinder turbo truck . Really should had been priced between 28k to 38k max on a tacoma and now that they are having problems glad i didnt buy one.
But wait, didn’t Toyota have pretty much its biggest truck selling month ever last month? What does steering clear mean? Selling 15k trucks in a month is pretty good….
You need to update the title of your video so viewers know you’re referring to the new Toyota trucks & not the prior gen ones because people are fine and loyal with the previous generation trucks. It’s just the new ones people are heisting or steering away because of 3 main seasons: recall issue, no N/A V6s/V8s & ofcourse the high prices.
Toyota in the past 1980-90 was rust bucket in the rust belt but at least they were cheap. Too much tech kill all the brands. Epa is the problem. Epa only see in front of there nose not 2 miles away. Until early 2000 all car brands had a reliable model nowaday they all suck.
Toyota has had a ton of recalls and other engine issues in the past. Its a myth that they never had issues, a myth mainly spread by Scotty Kilmer types. Do a recall rate search, yes, you will find that Toyota has the lowest, BUT only by single digit percentage points.
Its Toyotas fault (This applies to both the new Tundra and Tacoma): #1 Pricing, about $10k too high overall. #2 Fit and Finish is poor overall (rattles, inconsistent gaps, cheap plastics etc) #3 New Turbo Engines (in the case of the Tundra V6TT no one wants to deal with the risk)
A lot of bs out there if your don’t own a tundra you don’t know what your talking about I have 2023 zero problems drives better then the v8 more power v6 I keeping it I’m not taking a big loss on it Toyota has my back
I was interested in a new Toyota Tundra and decided to pass on one, but it was not because I became impatient! Quality issues abound with this model and there are no current resolutions to their issues and to top it off there are no recovery hooks. This is an absolute no go for a truck IMHO. Your statement about people being impatient implies that a person should wait for Toyota to get their act together. Toyota is not the only auto maker to choose from. I went with a 2024 F150 Powerboost, time will tell how that decision will work out.
Lots of people complaining how 2nd gen tundra outdated and wanted something new, well you got it and look what happened, now people going back and looking for 2nd gen tundras
Toyota broke one of the golden rules, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
They had to, there are lots of regulations in effect now and not even in the US, Europe is single handedly going to save the world at this point.

Toyota in the past 1980-90 was rust bucket in the rust belt but at least they were cheap. Too much tech kill all the brands. Epa is the problem. Epa only see in front of there nose not 2 miles away. Until early 2000 all car brands had a reliable model nowaday they all suck.
Toyota has had a ton of recalls and other engine issues in the past. Its a myth that they never had issues, a myth mainly spread by Scotty Kilmer types. Do a recall rate search, yes, you will find that Toyota has the lowest, BUT only by single digit percentage points.
The car car nut just bought one! This is very suspecious.
Turbos are junk and don't last. You will not see 300k out of a turbo.
Turbos are spinning at 200,000 rpm’s. That is insanely fast and asking for a breakdown.
Its Toyotas fault (This applies to both the new Tundra and Tacoma): #1 Pricing, about $10k too high overall. #2 Fit and Finish is poor overall (rattles, inconsistent gaps, cheap plastics etc) #3 New Turbo Engines (in the case of the Tundra V6TT no one wants to deal with the risk)
What a coincidence that this is happening when theres a new guy running toyota. 🙈
A lot of bs out there if your don’t own a tundra you don’t know what your talking about I have 2023 zero problems drives better then the v8 more power v6 I keeping it I’m not taking a big loss on it Toyota has my back
Lies😂 Just wait and see. Gotta be a paid shill comment here
Im glad I didnt buy a new tundra. Resell is horrible too.
Toyota fanboys won’t ever stop buying Toyotas. Even with issues and high prices, they will buy, then defend their purchase to the death.
I have yet to see a positive fan boy comment
Way over priced and I dont like the look . The 2021 Tundra looks the best
What a coincidence that this is happening when theres a new guy running toyota. 🙈 Dig deep and you’ll see the timeline of this.
Once they left Japan and started manufacturing in the North America and Mexico, they went way down hill. And they're not coming back. Sorry!
I was interested in a new Toyota Tundra and decided to pass on one, but it was not because I became impatient! Quality issues abound with this model and there are no current resolutions to their issues and to top it off there are no recovery hooks. This is an absolute no go for a truck IMHO. Your statement about people being impatient implies that a person should wait for Toyota to get their act together. Toyota is not the only auto maker to choose from. I went with a 2024 F150 Powerboost, time will tell how that decision will work out.
Me too
Bought a Silverado instead, my first American car ever, very happy with it
They destroyed their brand. Shame.
Lots of people complaining how 2nd gen tundra outdated and wanted something new, well you got it and look what happened, now people going back and looking for 2nd gen tundras
No V6 and over price good bye toyota said
Toyota - overpriced and old. And when they try something new they just muck it up.
Toyota junk never thought tht would happen
Tundra with junk engine. Tacoma with junk transmission. Overall quality in the toilet. Toyota is screwed. Nobody to blame but themselves.
Yup that’s why I got a Ford F-150 😂
