Fix: Dealers will install protective materials and a clamp on the fuel tube, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed November 6, 2024. Owners may contact Toyota's customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 23TB09/23TA09.
Owner Complaints (42)
Your truck is leaking fuel from the refueling port area near the charcoal canister. The dealer found that a flap valve inside the gas tank wasn't working properly, which allowed fuel to escape. Even after the dealership replaced the fuel tank and charcoal canister, the truck continued leaking fuel in the same spot when refueled. The dealer has escalated this to Toyota Engineers because the leak poses a potential fire risk near the rear brake assembly.

Your truck occasionally hesitates or doesn't respond immediately when you press the gas pedal to accelerate from a stop, with delays ranging from half a second to several seconds. This happens almost daily and has created dangerous situations when pulling into traffic. The issue may be related to fuel delivery, throttle response, or engine management systems and should be diagnosed by a Toyota technician.

Your truck's throttle occasionally becomes unresponsive when you try to accelerate from a stop, causing a noticeable delay before the engine suddenly surges forward. This hesitation in acceleration may be intermittent and unpredictable. The issue likely involves your fuel injection system, throttle body, or engine control computer needing diagnostic work and possibly cleaning or reprogramming.

Your truck's engine is slow to respond when you press the gas pedal, creating a dangerous delay between when you accelerate and when the engine actually speeds up. This responsiveness issue has nearly caused several accidents. The problem likely involves the fuel injection system or throttle control components that need inspection and adjustment.

Your truck hesitates or lags when you accelerate from a stop, making it unpredictable when merging into traffic or pulling out. This problem happens off and on, and the dealer hasn't been able to reproduce it during testing. The issue persisted even after the engine was replaced, suggesting the problem may be elsewhere in the fuel or propulsion system. Diagnosing this may require advanced fuel system testing or computer diagnostics to identify the root cause.

Your truck has a significant delay when you press the gas pedal—sometimes taking up to 4 seconds before the engine responds. This lag creates a safety risk when you're trying to pull into traffic or merge, since the truck doesn't accelerate when you need it to. The issue likely involves the fuel injection system or engine control module, which may need diagnostic testing and potential reprogramming or component replacement.

Your truck's fuel gauge displays incorrect readings when the vehicle is parked on an incline, often showing a full tank instead of the actual fuel level. After parking on level ground, the gauge doesn't correct itself and may require disconnecting the battery to reset. Toyota has acknowledged this issue with a technical service bulletin that requires a computer software update to fix.

Your truck experiences a noticeable delay between pressing the accelerator and the engine responding, happening multiple times daily.

Your 2022 Tundra has stalled several times while driving without any warning light, and you received a message to "Shift to Park and Restart." This happened at least once on the freeway, which is a safety concern. Two Toyota dealers were unable to reproduce or diagnose the problem, so they couldn't confirm if it's related to a known fuel system recall (Campaign 23V566000). The fix will likely require identifying the root cause through extended testing or replacing fuel system components if a defect is found.

Your 2022 Tundra is beeping abnormally while driving and displaying a 'Check Owner's Manual - Electrical Issue' message. The dealer diagnosed a failed alternator and replaced it, but the problem continued.

Your 2022 Tundra is affected by two open recalls (23TA09 and 24TA07) related to the fuel/propulsion and engine systems. Nearly a year after the first recall was issued, only an interim fix is available with no permanent solution in sight, and the second recall has no remedy available yet. This extended delay is affecting your vehicle's trade-in value and preventing dealers from certifying it as a used vehicle.

Your 2022 Tundra is affected by two open recalls (23TA09 and 24TA07) related to the fuel/propulsion and engine systems. Nearly a year has passed since the first recall was introduced with only an interim remedy available, and the second recall has no remedy available yet. This situation is affecting your vehicle's trade-in value and dealers cannot certify it as a Toyota Certified Used Vehicle due to the unresolved recalls.

Your gas gauge may display that the tank is full even when it's actually empty, making it difficult to know when you need to refuel. This is particularly dangerous if you're towing a heavy trailer and run out of fuel unexpectedly. The dealer has indicated there may not be a current fix available for this issue. Fixing this typically involves replacing the fuel level sensor or gauge cluster.

Toyota annouced a safety recall (23TA09) in August 2023 on a plastic fuel line that may leak due to rubbing. A temporary fix was available which my dealer installed, but its coming up to a year from the original recall with no remedy available. Why is this taking so long?

Your truck hesitates when accelerating, especially after slowing down or turning—the pedal feels dead for about a second, then the truck suddenly lurches forward. This is particularly dangerous on wet roads, where the delayed response can cause you to over-accelerate and lose rear-wheel traction. A dealer repair (TSB 0111-22) temporarily fixed it, but the problem returned after 10 days, and Toyota says this is normal for your vehicle.

The owner reports a major safety issue with the fuel/propulsion system on their 2022 Toyota Tundra but does not provide specific details about what the problem is or how it affects vehicle operation.

Your fuel gauge shows zero miles remaining after you've actually used only 27 of your 32 gallons, leaving about 5 gallons unaccounted for. This means you might drive well past the zero reading thinking you're out of fuel when you actually have 30-46 miles left, which could lead to running the tank dry. The fuel pump reserves these extra gallons to stay cool since it's submerged in the tank. Fixing this would likely require recalibrating the fuel gauge sender unit or updating the vehicle's fuel management software.
