2022+ Toyota Tundra Long Term Reliability -- Not What You Think

2022+ Toyota Tundra Long Term Reliability -- Not What You Think

With the new Tundra having been introduced for the 2022 model year, it’s received with mixed emotions. The new truck has many advantages over the previous generation such as more power, better fuel efficiency, more features and better capability but what about the most important thing–long term dependability? All the bells and whistles are excellent but will the truck perform flawlessly day and and day out, especially when working a towing? Will the new generation Tundra be as reliable as before? Let’s take a look at the differences and see if Toyota developed another million mile engine or if they made a big mistake.

Misleading Teaser Title. Zero info in the video about the long term or even short term reliability of the 2022.

I'm going to save everyone some time.

Summary - this is a new truck it may have some issues the engine has previously been used in a Lexus model for several years with minimal issues. So your milage may vary as with any car but Toyota is a reliable brand and it will probably be ok with a few hiccups.

Dealer told me to NOT go the recommended 10k miles between oil changes in order to protect the turbo. That said, I would never go over 5k miles between oil change.

My friend has a second gen. Tundra for many yrs and close to 300k miles. He’s had virtually no issues. Other than typical maintenance issues.

I have a 2022 tundra sr5 TRD sport and never had an issue … now she has 26, 000 and drives amazing

Blame the EPA not Toyota! Emissions are making all trucks suck. The new diesel trucks are terrible because of this!

[williamrossetter]

Glad to hear the truth regarding turbos. My company remanufactures them. I did own recently a turbo sports car. Changing the oil by or just before 5k miles consistently is crucial. I traded my turbo car for a naturally aspirated v6 truck which I plan to keep for many years. I would not purchase a turbo vehicle if I planned to keep it beyond 100k miles. Too much to go wrong!

My 2022 Tundra just blew the motor last week with 27k miles and I’m far from the only one.

They missed the mark with many loyal truck owners. Toyota has a long reputation for evolution of their products, not revolution. Loyal truck owners want long term, reliable power, not necessarily the most power or or best gas mileage. Toyota should of mated the new 10 speed transmission behind the 5.7 engine. In so doing they could of lowered the rear axle ratio without sacrificing performance. That combination would of yielded better gas mileage and emissions for Toyota. Toyota jumped from one of the simplest straight forward trucks to one of the most complex trucks on the market.

The 5.7L had some common issues too such as the secondary air induction system being garbage and taking Toyota years to fix. I had 2011 with the 5.7 that dropped a valve at 88, 000 miles destroying the engine. So although generally reliable, the 5.7 wasn’t perfect.

[FTKDeLaVega]

Owned a 2007, sold at 140k miles with no issues, just regular oil/filter change; owned a 2019 1794 trd offroad, sold at 98k miles, no issues, just regular oil/filter change. Now own 2023 trd pro, at 3k miles had to be in shop for "coolant found in cylinder #2" cylinder head was replaced by Toyota. So far it seems okay, but long term in question 🤞🤞

[davidwelty]

This is why I just bought a used 2021 with the 5.7. Toyota will eventually fix these problems but it might take a couple more years.

[bryanangelov]

The 3rd gen Tundra has too many issues for a Toyota truck, but I think it is still more reliable than the other domestic trucks. I bet that with the introduction of the midcycle refresh, the Toyota's engineers will solve most of the problems. Yet, this truck will not be as reliable as the 2nd gen Tundra. There is a tradeoff when you opt for a turbo engine over a non-turbo engine.

If you put food on the table with your truck, get a Tundra. If it’s a daily beater, get what suits you

[richardrovinelli]

I have 21k miles on my 2022 1794 Edition (non-hybrid) with no issues whatsoever. Only service visits with Toyota and a couple of minor recalls.

[RedWingsninetyone]

So what I've gotten out of this video is that they had issues with wastegates early on until they changed suppliers and the rest is a bunch of "what-if" speculation.

[corradettimotorsports]

I am having more issues than I would like with my 2023 Tundra, lots of interior problems, 4x4 broke, air whistles from the vents, 2 dash rattles and a radio trim piece is off...not to mention unimpressed fuel economy....this is my 2nd Toyota and last one.

[Lateru]

This video is nothing more than a 12 minute Tundra commercial.

[solarforfuture]

my 4.7 passed CA smog again. ..will put another 50K on the sequioa next year? tryin" for 500!
