Consumer Description

My 2022 Toyota GR86 along with many other GR86 owners on a national GR86 owners group I am apart of on FB are experiencing problems with the RTV silicone gasket that seats between the oil pan and the engine. It is breaking off and clogging the oil mesh net and the pump. causing the engine to starve for oil resulting in complete engine failure. And in the case of one 86 in California the engine blew up and caught fire. There is another case that has gotten a lot of attention on social media, where the owner was using it on the track which was an authorized Toyota track day. In which the owner purchased from Toyota when he bought his car. the engine oil pump was blocked by RTV break off. Blocked the pump, starved the engine and it blew up and failed. Many owners have been recently encountering these issues. but with various end results. But the cause remains the same. I am asking you guys at NHTSA to issue a recall notice to Toyota for this issue.
