Toyota has issued a recall of 43,566 2024 Tundra vehicles equipped with a V35A engine due to malfunctions that could cause the engine to unexpectedly stall and lose drive power, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported.

The issue involves debris from the manufacturing process possibly contaminating the engine, causing a main bearing to fail, resulting in an engine stall and loss of drive power, which increases the risk of an accident.
