The failure pattern owners describe

Owners of 2022 Tundras are reporting multiple fuel-system problems tied to NHTSA Campaign 23V566000. The most common complaint is part unavailability: more than half the complaints are from owners who received recall notices but can't get their vehicles fixed because Toyota doesn't have the parts. Several say they've been waiting close to a year.

The actual failures owners have experienced include fuel line rubbing against the frame and causing leaks, visible pools of gasoline under the truck, and strong gasoline smells in the cabin and around the rear wheel well. Two owners reported losing motive power while driving—one at 65 MPH smelled gasoline and got a "Low Fuel" message before the truck quit; the other had multiple stalls at highway speeds with a "Shift to Park and Restart" message, though dealers couldn't replicate the problem. One owner reports a fuel gauge that reads full when the tank is only half full. Dealers have confirmed the fuel-line diagnosis in some cases, but repairs aren't possible without the recall parts. Multiple owners say Toyota has taken longer than reasonable to address this.
