The action comes alongside a stop sale of some vehicles as well while Toyota tries to wrangle the problem
Toyota just recalled 102,092 trucks and SUVs over debris that might be in their engines. That debris could lead to complete engine failure. Toyota isn't sure how many of the vehicles in the recall population suffer from the condition. Nothing is perfect, but the size of a flaw or flaws therein often determines how we all feel about a product. For just over 102,000 Toyota trucks and SUVs, a very small bit of debris could lead to a potential engine failure.
In cases where that debris is still in the engine, it could cause the main bearings to fail. If that happens, it's bye-bye engine. In technical terms, it means stalling out and the need for a very pricey repair. Interestingly, Toyota openly admits that it isn't sure what percentage of the affected vehicles have the issue present. Auto manufacturers are required to provide some sort of estimate and Toyota chose one percent.
