Consumer Description

THE TOYOTA 5.7L V8 ENGINE FOUND IN TOYOTA TUNDRAS, SEQUOIAS, SIENNAS, LAND CRUISERS, AND LEXUS LX570S SUFFER FROM CAM SHAFT TOWER LEAKAGE, AND IT WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN TO ANYONE THAT OWNS ONE. IT CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE FROM 1K MILES TO 100K MILES, BUT IT CAN DAMAGE THE ENGINE AND OTHER IMPORTANT PARTS AND THEREFORE SHOULD BE RECALLED. IT IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE, AS IT LEAKS IN TO THE EXHAUST AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE. I OWN A 2014 TUNDRA THAT HAS THIS ISSUE AND THE DEALER WANTS ME TO PAY $3K TO FIX IT!
