Toyota Tundra forums and groups on social media are full of discussions about Tundra's engine issues, like the one I covered at Torque News this morning about a Tundra engine failure at 34,000 miles and Toyota's honorable handling. And now there is a thought in the Tundra enthusiast community that Toyota can fix many issues if it could offer something new.

There are safety recalls, and then there are really time-consuming, expensive safety recalls. Toyota is experiencing the latter, having discovered earlier this year a defect in its twin-turbocharged V-6 truck engines that power the Tundra pickup truck as well as Lexus's LX luxury SUVs—at least, those 2022 to 2023 model-year variants built between November 2021 and February 2023 (or the same model years built between July 2021 and November 2022 for the LX). The issue can cause the engine stall unexpectedly; per Toyota's NHTSA recall notices to dealers:

A Canadian teen is bravely navigating her new life after she woke up in the ICU and learned she would soon become a quadruple amputee.

Amalie Henze, now 19, woke up on Nov. 4, 2023 after what she described as a series of “weird dreams” – only to learn that she had been in a medically induced coma for three weeks fighting septic shock.

Almost immediately, she told People magazine, she knew something was wrong with her arms and legs.

We don't get the Lexus LBX here in the United States, nor the Toyota Yaris Cross upon which it's based. That's not exactly a tragedy, since it's just the umpteenth crossover that would compete in an already crowded segment. However, the smallest vehicle with the spindle grille just got a whole lot more interesting. Enter the LBX Morizo RR, complete with the GR Corolla's engine.
