It names 34 model years (2019–2024). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

What the bulletin says

Upon investigation, it is found that the engine ECU has been damaged and needs to be replaced. In several cases, it was found that the cause of the ECU damage was improper jump starting. Further investigation found that ECU damage may occur if the negative (ground) cable clamps are attached on or around the engine ECU or ECU mounting bracket.

What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 34 model years this bulletin names have filed 5,567 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 760 of them name Engine — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On the 2019 Toyota RAV4, the 28 owners who gave an odometer reading for Engine reported it at a median of 31,000 miles. That figure is one model year’s, not the whole range this bulletin covers — medians from different model years are not averaged.

2019 Toyota Avalon · Engine · filed with NHTSA Aug 23, 2019 · ODI 11246041
Intermittently as I press on the brake, the engine loses power, engine feels like it is going to die and the charge meter on the dash display drops to no charge. Right before the engine dies the engine regains charge on the dash display charge meter and the engine returns to normal. So far the engine has never totally died on me yet
2024 Toyota Crown · Engine · filed with NHTSA Oct 28, 2025 · ODI 11696024
I purchased the car last July. Up to December, the car performed fine. Starting in December when I used the car heater repeatedly due to subzero temperatures, I noticed a burning smell coming from the vents. I was afraid that the engine or car would catch fire. I called the Tansky Toyota dealership and was told to bring the car in.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Toyota T-TT-0694-22 REV2 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the T-TT-0694-22 REV2 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Toyota warranty extension on file lists the ones Toyota has filed.
Which vehicles does T-TT-0694-22 REV2 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 34 model years: 2022 Toyota Avalon, 2021 Toyota Avalon, 2020 Toyota Avalon, 2019 Toyota Avalon, 2024 Toyota Camry, 2023 Toyota Camry and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
