Toyota Recalls 4 U.S.-Built Tundra Pickups in Japan Over Camshaft
Strength That Could Lead to Engine Stalling
Toyota is recalling four U.S.-built Tundra pickup trucks in Japan. The
trucks were built between Jan. 22 and 27, 2026, and the recall filing
was submitted to Japan's transport ministry on Nov. 12, with the
recall reported on Nov. 13.
The recall concerns the right-bank exhaust camshaft of the trucks'
V-type engine, which may have insufficient strength and cracks
resulting from machining. If the cracks spread, the engine could
stall.
Toyota said dealers will inspect the camshaft numbers on the affected
trucks and replace the part free of charge if it is defective, and
that dealers will contact the owners directly.
The Tundra is a recent 'reverse import' to Japan, built in the United
States and shipped to Japan for sale. Toyota also included a
disclaimer about cosmetic quality in the customer booklet for the
model.
