Toyota Tundra Extended Warranty
The Toyota Tundra is the most reliable full-size pickup truck in its segment — praised for its legendary Toyota durability, V8 and twin-turbo V6 powertrains, and exceptional long-term ownership costs. While Tundras outlast most competitors, owners of third-generation models encounter new technology failure points including the twin-turbo system, 10-speed transmission, and hybrid battery on i-FORCE MAX models. Athena Auto Protection keeps Tundra owners hauling without unexpected repair costs.

Toyota Tundra Extended Warranty FAQ
New Toyota Tundra vehicles include a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Third-generation Tundra hybrid battery systems carry an additional 10-year/150,000-mile warranty. Athena's coverage extends protection after these expire.
Common Tundra issues include secondary air injection system failure (P0418 codes — a well-known issue on second-generation 5.7L models), 10-speed automatic transmission shuddering on third-generation models, twin-turbo V6 turbocharger issues, rear differential bearing failure, and A/C compressor failure. Repairs typically range from $700 to $6,500.
Most Tundra model years — including first-generation (T150/T170), second-generation (T200), and third-generation (T360) — with a clean title and under 150,000 miles at enrollment are eligible. Contact us to verify your specific year and powertrain.
