Well, at least you got that. This has been going on for a long time and you would think Toyota would have both replacement parts and some idea of what was going on by now. Good luck!
They need 2 parts to fix this, one of them is won't be available til mid Feb and the other one is unknown ETA. Does this qualify for lemon law at this point since the car is in shop for 30 days?

In most states you qualify to lemon law your vehicle if three attempts to repair it fail or if it is out of service for 30 or more days. So yeah, I would say yes - your truck probably qualifies.

I was on a road trip and started my car after filling gas. The check engine, grille shutter, drive start control, and system malfunction lights alerts went off. I check my grille shutters and they were open. I ended up driving the car home with no issues or limp mode. The only thing that didn't work was the cruise control and active lane assist.

Supreme Toyota in Hammond told me there were similar issues with the 2022 tundra when it came out and they think they know the fix. They placed me in a new loaner car and have been fantastic so far.

I've had no issues prior to this and am loving the truck. Hope there is a fix soon.

Mine just did the same thing.. 3700 miles. Was on road trip of 400 miles coming home.. Stop 10 miles shy of home and filled up and when started up got the same thing.. Supposedly later production model, built mid Sept or so.. Frustrating..

havent called dealer becuase it is weekend.. and you cant scroll though the gages to check engine temp or oil temp..
