Buying a used 2020 Toyota Sequoia? Check these 2 recalls first
A much shorter recall list than the 2018 and 2019 trucks: the steering part that can leak fluid, and a fuel pump that can fail. One affects steering, the other can leave the engine stalling in traffic. Four NHTSA complaints — unverified owner reports — make a thin record: power train twice, suspension once, one injury noted. Low counts on a low-volume model tell you little either way, so recall status matters more than the complaint tally.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Confirm the fuel-pump recall repair on this VIN; that campaign spanned many Toyota models.
- Ask when the steering recall was done and look underneath for fresh fluid.
- Have the drivetrain and suspension inspected, the two areas the complaints touch.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
