Buying a used 2020 Toyota Tundra? Check these 5 recalls first

5 NHTSA recalls · 45 owner complaints on file

The 2020 Toyota Tundra has 5 recalls in this group. Headlight-wiring overheating is the critical item; fuel-pump failure with possible stalling and power-steering leaks are also prominent. Another recall addresses turn signals that may flash too dimly. NHTSA lists 45 owner complaints, which are unverified reports, including unknown or other 9, fuel/propulsion system 6, engine 5, and forward collision avoidance 4. Reported outcomes include 4 crashes, 1 fire, and 3 injuries, without confirming a defect caused them.

Before you buy

  1. 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.
  2. Request headlight-wiring and fuel-pump recall completion records.
  3. Have power-steering components inspected for leaks.
  4. Test turn signals and ask about stalling or collision-avoidance faults.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
