2018 TOYOTA TUNDRA Fuel/propulsion System Problems

The vehicle was having issues with the fuel pump which was a known safety recall for the 2018 Toyota Tundra vehicles. The service man said that when he pulled up the safety recall for our VIN number that it didn't show anything, but we needed a new fuel pump according to the service codes that were coming up after inspection. They made us pay for the fuel pump before we left the dealership. The vehicle was too dangerous to drive without having the work performed (getting stalled out or stuck on the highway) so we had to pay for the work. Toyota said that I could file a complaint with NHTSA to get my vehicle added to this recall and then try again for reimbursement. I have the repair paperwork if needed to support this claim.

I had an independent service center diagnose the issue with my 2018 Toyota Tundra. My truck would not start so there was no safety concern, but if the fuel pump failed while driving then the safety concern rises. The electrical connection inside the fuel pump was melted. There was no warning signs of the issue, it just would not turn all the way over. I looked up that the 2018 Toyota Tundra w certain VIN #'s have a recall for the fuel pump, unfortunately my VIN # is not included.

Vehicle occasionally stalls on acceleration and deceleration. Occasional stall on idle. Check engine light DOES NOT ILLUMINATE. After several stalls; warning lights for trainer brake controller, forward anti-collision, and cruise control errors illuminate. Diagnosed as bad fuel pump and fuel pump modulator. Fuel pump and modulator replaced and issues rectified.

My fuel pump died with symptoms consistent with other 2018-2020 Tundras involved in a fuel pump recall.

Fuel pump out after 3 weeks.4-24-25 Three weeks ago 4-07-25 I had an issue with my fuel pump and the Toyota dealer replaced it. I also reported it here at that time. I typed up what the truck did and sent it to y'all before i ever got word of what was wrong. The report from them is not accurate. They stated I had run out of gas and the fuel pump was burnt up. As I stated I lost propulsion but the truck was still running. I will say I also know I had a couple of gallons of gas in it as I added some the day before and I know how far I drove as I put a little extra over the distance I was going and of course it had gas in it since I drove it to the gas station. Anyways they replaced the pump and now 3 weeks later 4-24-25 the new pump is out. The truck acted the same as it did 3 weeks ago and again it wouldn't start after turning it off. I had to have it towed to the dealer again. They confirmed today it was the fuel pump that had gone out. I know I had about a half tank of gas this time.

FUEL PUMP. I was driving at highway speeds of about 70mph when I suddenly lost propulsion but the truck was still running. I had cars behind me and coming from the front. I shifted to neutral and back to drive to see if that would fix it and nothing changed. I pulled over onto the shoulder and put it in park. I went back to drive and nothing again. I turned it off hoping for a reset and it wouldn't start after that. The starter was turning over but would not fire up the engine. Had to have it towed to the dealer and they say its the Fuel Pump. No lights or warnings ever came on the dash. The Truck is at the Toyota Dealer being fixed right now.

My truck continues to start extremely rough and it staled out on me the other day driving down the road. The problem has persisted for several months now and I have been told that it is a problem with the fuel pump. I know that Toyota had a massive recall on fuel pumps but my truck was not under that recall and believe that it should have been.

The vehicle has had no other fuel issues and has always been kept up on maintenance at the Toyota dealership. Recently we had issues after getting gas and it stalling. Today after closer inspection the dealership called to say it was the fuel pump. The fuel pump has melted to the gas tank. This is obviously a huge fire and safety risk. There are no after market parts that would cause this.

Vehicle shut off while driving, had to push vehicle to the side to prevent traffic, vehicle would not start after that. Towed it home and had a mechanic look at it. Read codes for a failed fuel pump and also tested by opening fuel rail and cranking the engine, no fuel was coming out. Read online that multiple people have failing fuel pumps with the same vehicle. Dealer says there are no open recalls associated with my vin.

Fuel pump needs replacement . If it failed while driving it could have made the vehicle stall creating a hazard. The vehicle was brought to the dealership and it was confirmed the fuel pump was bad. No warning light came on. The problem was notice while trying to start the vehicle.

It shows online that a 2018 Toyota Tundra has a recall for fuel pump and a recall is a recall and it is not showing and I feel like our Toyota Tundra was deleted for a recall for our fuel pump to be replaced mine has went out but Toyota Tundra told us at Cowboy Toyota because it has more than 90,000 miles that it will not be covered. I feel like if there is a recall for our ECM and our fuel pump that a recall is a recall. I need to talk to someone to make a complaint. This is ridiculous i have never had a problem with any of my Toyotas and I feel there is a defective part for my 2018 Toyota Tundra if you google my truck make and model it does show there is a recall for my truck regardless of mileage. If you google it you will see that it is on recall for a 2018 Toyota Tundra 5.7 V8 fuel pump recall.

emissions control pump and valves.it is available for inspection. Truck would only reach 60 mph. pressing the accelerator further causes the truck to slow down. yes dealer diagnosed parts that need replacing. Not inspected by manufacturer or others. see dealer for service light would shine at engine startup for two weeks prior to this problem. I don't know if this pertained to this problem.

My 2018 Tundra is having the fuel pump issue that is described in the recall. Toyota tells me that I need a new one. My vehicle does not show up on the Toyota Fuel Pump recall list.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FOR POTENTIAL FUEL PUMP FAILURE FROM TOYOTA IN JAN. 2020. IT HAS BEEN 6 MONTHS AND NO SOLUTION HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS NOT ASSISTING WITH RESOLUTION. *TR
