For me, the guess : A batch of torque converters were manufactured improperly and these are failing under use.
and if the issue is resolved, with a new updated torque converter- great.
or if another component is failing and the torque converter is getting damaged due to debris that can pass into the transmission.
if metal is found in a transmission, I would advocate for a transmission replacement due to solid metal contamination that can damage panetary gears, etc. it may only show up tens of thousands of miles later.
I do agree that Toyota should be transparent about how they are addressing this now and if this is a production date issue, or an ongoing issue until they have a fix.
