ENGINEER EXPLAINS TOYOTA TUNDRA RECALL // SHOULD YOU BUY FORD F-150 INSTEAD?
Automotive Engineer David Chao provides his perspective on what is happening with the Toyota Tundra recall - which also involves the new Lexus LX 600. Although there aren't a lot of information and data on this subject yet, David tries to explain some of the mystery surrounding the Tundra recall - and this brings an important question such as whether you should buy the Ford F-150 instead. This video includes David's perspectives on this matter and also his review of the new Ford F-150. Please note that this video represents David's view and and but does not represent an official note from Toyota. Please be respectable when making comments about this since it's a sensitive subject for many...

BEST ENGINEERED SUV // 2025 MAZDA CX-70 // ALSO MOST FUN-TO-DRIVE // FULL ENGINEER'S REVIEW
Просмотров 59 тыс.20 часов назад
The all-new 2025 Mazda CX-70 - which is almost identical to the highly regarded CX-90 - may be the best engineered SUV in the market. Whether it's Mazda's decision to over-engineer the sheet panels and resulting panel fit (2.8mm gap!) or it's state-of-the-art manufacturing methods at Hofu plant (where the CX-70/90s are produced), the CX-70 is extremely well engineered. On top of that, the CX-70...

    David, what about all the recalls on the 150? Why should anyone trust any Ford product? Recall after recall after recall....

  • @tomcharbonneau9788
    @tomcharbonneau9788 Час назад

    The F150 has been recalled so many times because it is of such poor quality. All Fords quality is poor. I feel bad for the people that bought the Tundra. A full, 100% buy back is the only answer here.

  • @AyaWetts

    Most F-150 won't fit in my garage... only option to do that would be regular cab (not super cab or super crew, the old regular cab with seats almost on the back window). Not that I'd be against a Regular cab, 6.5 foot bed V8 F-150 ... but not much seating room in there.

    This was a bit of a sugarcoating. Catastrophic engine failure is a far more serious recall than what we generally see even with new roll outs. Also, there are already reports of new 2024 trucks having the same engine failure- the assumption that newer trucks aren’t affected and the issue was corrected doesn’t look to be accurate. We need to stop giving Toyota free passes on their quality because we previously knew them to build reliable vehicles- it’s pretty clear they have slipped in that regard.

    Not all engines... thus the #TundraRoulette expression, you don't know which one will fail. The F-150 is liked because it has a 36-gal fuel tank. You don't have to visit the gas station as often as with the others.

      Unfortunately, in this case, I think the opposite problem happened Toyota Japan for forced one global powertrain on all trucks. This engine was designed in Japan and already has a bad track record in the Lexus model going back a few years. I think Mike Sweers had a choice. It would’ve been for the V8 not this turbo engine. let’s be honest. The real problem is the US government mandating unrealistic emissions targets.

If fuel economy & CO2 emissions were top priority then why would Toyota only offer the 2.4 turbo hybrid in the Landcrusier/4Runner/Tacoma if it averages @ best 10L/100km & produces 236g/km of CO2. Meanwhile their turbo diesel averages 7.9L/100km & produces only 209g/km of CO2.

    I do not want any of these turbo charged over stressed engines. Give me the 5.0 liter in the Ford and 5.7 in the Tundra. I have written off GM and Dodge. I own two trucks. I have the 5.3 liter Vortec prior to the ACMS system and a 4.8 purchased because it did not have ACMS. I keep hearing this is mandated by the government. Let’s change the friggin government. What is better for the environment? A vehicle that lasts 75,000 miles or one that lasts 300,000? There is pollution and energy costs that go into each new vehicle. Many of vehicles sold today are short changing the younger generation. My last Silverado had 385,000 and was still going strong but needed another transmission. A new owner put in another transmission and I saw it back on the road a week later. I know that simple is better and all the fancy poop that they are putting in trucks today will be a problem tomorrow.

    people dont seem to see the fact that it is not just the tundra, it is also the lexus. these blocks are made in 2 completely different factories across the world from each other and yet having the same debris issue? not likely. there are things that toyota are not saying here. this same engine is inside the brand new gx550 too, so, toyota/lexus NEEDS this engine to work and not give them issues because if not it will destroy their sales and business on pretty much every flagship model. this is sad because even after "fixing the issue" it still happens yet again and again over and over for most of the affected vehicles. This is to the point that the dealerships are refusing them on trade in but they sure arent refusing to sell and advertise them everywhere to everyone though. This is sad from toyota and needs to be made right more than just fixing it and more than just a public apology that means nothing at all from the owner/ceo of toyota/lexus
