On the list with a 2019 TRD Off-Road (9/18 build date).

Interesting- the Toyota doc says after late Jan 2019 should be good. ????
That concerns me because my build date is 7/19 and I'm not on the list when I checked the other day.
EDIT- just checked again- not on the list.
[MENTION=214852]zoomzoom[/MENTION] are you SURE you have your build date right?

2018 TRD Pro. Purchased new in early September 2018. Not on the list

Yeah, I'd like to know what they know, esp if we all have to wait for a fix which might take the better part of the year to implement.
It would be nice to know if there's some mileage figure associated with the failures, or whether it's a 100% failure rate or not.

Where is the information posted about the date range?
NOT in the club
2019 TRD PRO build date 5/19 not on either site's list....:whoo:
That said, I wouldn't beat Toyota up too much. Wife's 2014 Mercedes just had a safety recall done for corroded steering rack mounting bolts. All replaced and a alignment, all on Mercedes dime.
Even with the best intentions...shiznit happens

That would be good info to know too.
What was your build date? Is it on the list, or not, because it's just after the recall date like mine?
They attach a recall to a specific lot number of fuel pumps and replace all of them from the lot. That’s probably around when they began installing pumps from the next lot. They record what parts go into what vehicle during assembly, that’s how they flag your VIN.

Mine was built 01-19. When I tried the VIN it came up as a recall.
I guess we just have to wait for more info.
I haven't seen any Toyota's by the side of the road yet.
You should consider yourself fortunate that your 4Runner isn't included. Hopefully it will stay that way.
As a former master tech at a Toyota dealer and various independent shops, you never know how conscientious the person that might work on your vehicle is. They could be a hack with an impact wrench, stripping threads on anything they touch. Or they could be a bit more careful about their work.

No need for “serious insider information.” Your dealer can easily tell you the date it was manufactured. Just ask the next time you’re in.
I learned that mine was built Sept. 12, 2017.

Here is some more information on the recall, while this document talks about the issue and the proximate cause.
Please note that the dealership cannot sell new 2019's or certified 2018/2019's and rental vehicles are available for people worried about driving their cars until a fix is issued. You can read about it in this document (towards the end - I think this was linked to earlier in this thread).
This means that dealerships may be more motivated to deal on 2020's since they can't sell the 19's
