highFUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Filed: Apr 2021

Your fuel pump and gasket failed simultaneously without warning, causing your 4Runner to lurch forward about 5 feet before stalling completely. This unexpected failure left you stranded and requires about $1,000 in repairs. While Toyota has issued recalls for fuel pump issues on some model years, your 2013 is not currently covered by those recalls.

NHTSA #: 11408130
highFUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Filed: Mar 2020

Your 4Runner has stalled unexpectedly on the highway three times over six months, even though the fuel gauge showed about a quarter tank remaining and the low fuel warning light never came on. This suggests a fuel delivery or engine issue rather than running out of gas. You'll likely need fuel system diagnosis to identify whether it's a faulty fuel pump, clogged fuel filter, or a problem with the fuel gauge itself.
