I purchased a certified used Toyota Tundra Platinum Truck from a local Toyota Dealer with 32k miles already on it. I have been looking for this truck for some time. Traded my Acura car towards the purchase. The car came with a 100k mile warranty. I drive pretty extensively up and down the east coast of the United States for work. In 2 years with regular maintenance in oil changes, tire rotation and other services provided through Toyota, I developed an engine knock at the 112k mile mark. I took it to my Toyota Service Center and they reported to me that the rods may be tapping and they said I should think about buying an engine for replacement. Wow ! Are you kidding me. They informed me that for $13k dollars they could replace my engine with a used certified one with 40k miles. My question is simple - If I bought a certified Truck with a 100k mile Warranty and it had 32k miles on it, I believe it should still be under their Warranty until 134k miles. Correct ? I find it very unnerving that they suggested to me very quickly that I was out of TIME. I will continue to research this episode and push further for the answer to Toyota's Problem with the hidden engine knock problem.
