Our fuel pump and a gasket went out at same time. No warning it was going to happen, lunged forward 5 feet and then died. Going to cost $1,000 to fix. It looks like Toyota has recalls on fuel pumps but it doesn't cover our year yet.

The vehicle has stalled on the highway three times in the last six months most recently on 2/15/2020. Each time the gas gauge was showing approximately a quarter tank of gas. In none of the cases was the low fuel light on.

problem #1

4Runner

My vehicle was in motion, and the engine shut off. I was able to restart the vehicle several times, but it would only continue running for 5 to 60 seconds. After about 30 minutes the vehicle started and drove to my destination (home). The problem persisted for 3 days, with only one successful short drive amidst several stalls and restarts. Each time the vehicle started, but did not run for long before dying. I towed it to my local Toyota dealership 9 days ago and they were not able to find any issue... the problem seems to have fixed itself, at least for now. However, today the news reported a recall for newer model 4 runners that have a problem with the fuel pump causing the vehicle to stall while driving, posing a serious risk. I believe this may be the same issue that is affecting my 2013 4 runner.
