You are in the Toyota Tundra Forum. Your Host is kcram
I would say less, much less. 20 failures out of 30,000 engines is a very slight issue.

Toyota has said that the problem camshafts were a result of a bad batch on early engines. Just because they issue a recall, that doesnt mean that every '07 Tundra will be included. It could be a very small number of engines, maybe 1,000 or less. I say again, kudos to Toyota for seeing what is right now a small issue and addressing it before it becomes a major recall. Unlike some other automakers who like to sweep minor problems like this under the rug, Toyota is standing by their customers and making it right.

Heck, any car is susceptible to oil gelling if you don't change it on a routine basis. Not so convenient a solution for the the GM or the Ford trucks...
