Formal complaint that 2022 thru 2025 Toyota Sequoia equipped with the 3.4L twin-turbo V6 engine architecture (V35A-FTS) suffering from the notorious main bearing failure be included in the current recall of 2022 thru 2025 Toyota Tundra. If the engine block mechanically seizes, the entire drivetrain locks up, rendering the hybrid backup ineffective, creating a major safety issue. (NHTSA Campaign 25V767)

TOYOTA SEQUOIA HYBRID 2023 POWER TRAIN

The motor in our 2023 Toyota Sequoia with around 32,000 miles failed and left me stranded on the side of a two lane highway in the middle of the night. Toyota only wants to replace the engine block and will not extend the warranty on the motor after it is repaired. This is the same motor that is in the Tundra that was recalled (NHTSA recall #25V767 for the V35A 3.4L i Force Max twin turbo V6 hybrid). Why is there not a recall on the Sequoia's motor? Now I will have a motor that has been torn apart and put back together by some random technician instead of getting a brand new motor from the factory, which is what they did for the Tundra. Toyota also extended the warranty on the motors for the Tundra, which they will not do on my rebuilt motor. So now if this motor they rebuild lasts as long as the first motor it will fail right after my warranty expires and I will have a Sequoia with 64,000 miles that has no motor and I will have to pay to have it replaced.

TOYOTA SEQUOIA HYBRID 2023 ENGINE

I am creating this complaint because my vehicle has not been included in the NHTSA recall # 25V-767 on the V35A 3.4L twin-turbo V6 in my 2023 Sequioa. My vehicle was produced on the same manufacturing line and likely had the same engine debris. Toyota gives the reason for not including the hybrid because it is not a safety issue as the hybrid motor can provide power if the engine fails. However owners who have encountered this issue in a hybrid tundra or Sequioa has said that power-steering and control systems failed creating a safety issue.   Additionally we use this vehicle to do long road trips that often put us long distances from any service center or roadside assistance. This creates an additional safety hazard for our family being stranded far from potential help due to this issue. Since this is a known issue covered under a recall for other models with the same issue I am asking that my vehicle be included in the recall so that we can have confidence to use this vehicle as intended. We bought a Toyota and a lifetime Toyota owners due to the reputation of reliability that we could depend on the vehicle to get us across the country in safety. Not including our vehicle in this recall is breaking the trust that we have in the brand to do the right thing to cover their mistakes.   I am requesting that the recall be consistent to cover all the engines impacted by manufacturing debris including the hybrid variants of the motor.

Hybrid system malfunctioned and engine completely seized up. Dealer/Toyota is replacing the short block and both turbos on my Sequoia. This seems to be the same issue as the Tundra engines.

Able to lock car while keys are in the front cup holders. Have to close rear hatch manually. Dash button, key fob button and door button do not work. Others have been complaining about this on the internet.  Driver side door has to be forced to roll up. Pull button to roll up. Goes up and then opens back up about two thirds of the way.
