“I was crossing two lanes of a 4-lane highway from a stop. I floored the accelerator to cross traffic and the truck hesitated for approximately 1-2 seconds in the middle of the highway before finally accelerating”

“The vehicle has a recurring safety-related defect where there is a long, unpredictable pause (1–3 seconds) between pressing the accelerator from a stop and the truck actually accelerating”

“Multiple times since I purchased this vehicle I have tried to accelerate into the flow of traffic from a stop and the truck would barely make it into the roadway and then suddenly lose acceleration leaving me without power when I needed it most”

“All four tires on my 2025 Toyota Tundra experienced severe and abnormal outside edge wear at approximately 13,000 miles”

“Bad factory alignment caused OEM tires (Falken Wildpeak A/T, 265/60 R20) to wear prematurely. Tread depth reduced to 3/32 on all 4 tires at 10,500 miles”

“All four tires are wearing unevenly. The outside of the tires are worn down much more than the middle and inside edge of tires. I noticed this six months ago, have called Toyota and brought the truck to the dealership and they stated there is no issue”

“While driving on the interstate, my sunroof suddenly exploded and glass shattered from the moveable portion of the sunroof. It sounded like a shotgun or a very loud pop”

“I was driving down the highway about 5 minutes, it was 34 degrees outside, family in car (with baby). No cars in front of me at all, didn’t drive through an underpass, didn’t hit any potholes, and out of nowhere the front panoramic sunroof exploded”

“The hood design of the 3rd generation toyota tundra causes SEVERE solar glare back into the cab and this is a known issue. While I could site many instances of it casing a problem, the most recent scenario caused me to nearly run a stop sign and hit a pedestrian”

“I was driving around 4 p.m. when sunlight hit the engine hood. The sun's reflection went directly into my eyes and blinded me for seconds. I could stop before hitting another car in front of me”

“Center console glossy trim around the gear shift gives off a blinding glare from the sunlight coming through the front windshield. Almost side swiped the adjacent vehicle on my right when blinded”

“There rear tailgate does not function. I have it in to Ourismon Toyota Chantilly for the third time. The tailgate does not come down”

“The tailgate will not go down when you push the bottom that is on the tail light or when you push the button inside the truck it will not go down. It makes the noise like if it is going to but gets stuck”

“The contact stated that while the tailgate was closing automatically, her grandson's finger was at the upper closing point of the tailgate; however, the tailgate continued to close”

“My truck engine seized at highway speeds on 4/29/2026. Machining debris seized to the engine’s bearings causing oil to dump from the engine and the engine to completely seize”

“Engine maintenance bearing failed at highway speed. I was able to coast to the roadside because there was no other traffic. Engine would not restart”

“The contact stated that while driving at approximately 60 MPH, there was an object in the road that he attempted to swerve around; however, the lane-keeping assist feature independently activated, causing the vehicle to jerk off the road, down the median, and crash into a ditch”

“The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed with the Lane Keep Assist feature activated, the vehicle steered to the right, leaving the lane, and entering oncoming traffic”

“While driving the lane warning and lane assist will allow the vehicle to cross the lane lines and go off the road or into another lane”
