2022 Toyota Tundra: the engine dominates owner complaints

Owners filed 413 complaints with NHTSA. The engine is by far the most reported area at 38%, and powertrain-related reports pile on top of that (25%) along with the fuel/propulsion system (18%). No fires, injuries, or deaths are reported across the engine, powertrain, and fuel groups. The brakes draw the fewest complaints but carry the only injury (1) and a crash, so give them a careful look on a test drive.
