In owners' own words
One morning, I tried to start my truck, and it would not start. After taking it to Lipton Toyota in Fort Lauderdale, they determined the fuel pump was faulty. Unfortunately, theyâve had my truck for over two weeks and have informed me of a national shortage for Toyota fuel pumps. I have spoken to other dealerships in the area, including those in Kentucky, they are also on back order for these fuel pumps. Fuel/propulsion system
Vehicle died while driving, found that fuel pump quit working. towed to a shop, they informed me that Toyota has a recall on the fuel pumps and was instructed to tow the vehicle to Central Toyota in Jonesboro AR. Was told that my vehicle didn't fall into the recall for fuel pump failing while driving. was forced to purchase a new fuel pump and have it installed after towing back to a repair shop. Fuel/propulsion system
My toyota tundra is having issues with the fuel pump. It is saying I am using e85 fuel when that is not the case. As a result I am having issues with cold start. There are recalls however I am being told that my truck is listed among them despite having the same issue. Fuel/propulsion system
