2017 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

Right headlight leveling motor failed causing headlight to point at the ground. I now have limited night time visibility on a 13,000 mi. vehicle. Toyota does not offer a replacement part nor do aftermarket sellers. A Youtube video of one of these dismantled motors shows a cheapest of the cheap device. Auto manufacturers should not be allowed to use cheaply made items to point headlights! Dealer refused warranty and wants $500+ for a new headlight that will last 13,000 mi. When the left side fails, I will no longer be able to drive at night. This is beyond absurd that a manufacturer is allowed to use the cheapest parts possible on a safety device such as a headlight.

THE HEADLIGHTS AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TURN OFF WHEN I USE THE TURN SIGNALS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE I HAD THE TRUCK, THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED THE LIGHTS WERE OFF FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES. THE TRUCK IS BEING LOOKED AT BY THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY CAN'T RECREATE THE ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM

MY TRUCK WON'T START AND THE SYMPTOMS DIRECTLY MATCH THE RECALL ALREADY IN PLACE FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR. VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STARTED BUT SPEWED OUT ALLOT OF UNBURNED FUEL OUT OF EXHAUST PIPE.

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND THE LIGHTS ARE ON AUTO, PRESSING DOWN FOR THE LEFT SIGNAL THE HEADLIGHTS GO OUT AND THE DASH BECOMES DIM AS IF I AM DRIVING DURING THE DAY WHICH IM NOT. THE VEHICLE IS MOVING WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT . PLEASE FIND A RESOLUTION BECAUSE THIS IS DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE OTHERS TO COLLIDE WITH ME WHILE ON THE ROAD.

TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER DOES NOT WORK AND IT ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH. NOW IT DOES NOT EVEN SHOWS UP ON DISPLAY AS IF TRUCK IS NOT EVEN EQUIPPED WITH THIS MODULE. EXTREMELY SCARY AND DANGEROUS WHEN TOWING 6000IB BEHIND YOU AND YOUR TRAILER BRAKES FAIL TO ENGAGE. INTERNET IS BUSSING WITH TUNDRA OWNERS WITH SAME ISSUE.

MY 2017 TOYOTA TUNDRA 1794 CREWMAX, DURING WINTER MONTHS IN SOUTH CAROLINA - THE HEADLIGHTS, TAIL LIGHTS AND INTERNAL INSTRUMENTATION WILL TURN OFF WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT WITH TURN SIGNAL ENGAGED. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WITH THE LIGHTS IN THE AUTO POSITION AND NOT IN THE MANUAL POSITION AND THE ISSUE OCCURS AT NIGHT INTERMITTENTLY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION!! SOMETIMES THE LIGHTS JUST FLICKER AND SOMETIMES THEY GO OFF AND STAY OFF. I HAVE ALMOST RAN OFF THE ROAD TWICE WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED. IT HAPPENS MORE FREQUENTLY WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES. I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW TRYING TO GET TOYOTA TO FIX IT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT TOYOTA DOESNT WANT TO FIX UNLESS THEY CAN DUPLICATE THIS ISSUE IN THE SHOP, IN WHICH THEY USUALLY CANT. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE, ON FORUMS. THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED ASAP.

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS SHUT OFF WHEN TURN SIGNAL IS USED. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, BUT FREQUENTLY. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIME AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 10 MPH TO 80 MPH BUT IT ONLY SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS ARE ON AND THE TURN SIGNAL IS ACTIVATED.

PURCHASED TRUCK NEW IN NOVEMBER 2016..ABOUT A YEAR LATER STARTING HAVING ROUGH STARTS AND HAVING TO CRANK TRUCK SEVERAL TIMES AT COLD START. MASSIVE RECALLS FOR ECM AND FUEL PUMP HOWEVER 17S NOT INCLUDED...ALSO RECENTLY HAD FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TURN SIGNAL/RUNNING LIGHT REPLACED AND STILL DIDNT WORK. HAVE READ ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ALSO. LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP UNABLE TO FIX EITHER PROBLEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 TOYOTA TUNDRA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, WHEN HE NOTICED THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TURN SIGNAL WAS INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIGHT BULB WAS MELTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER TOYOTA ON NICHOLASVILLE LOCATED AT 2100 LEXINGTON RD, NICHOLASVILLE, KY 40356, (859) 887-4200, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE TURN SIGNAL ASSEMBLY TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,508.

WHEN ENABLING THE REAR DEFROSTER (AND SIDE MIRROR DEFROST), I HEARD A LOUD POP, AND NOTICED SMOKE UNDER THE PASSENGER WINDSHIELD WIPER. THE WINDSHIELD HAD CRACKED (PRESUMABLY FROM THE HEAT DIFFERENTIAL), AND THE WIPER STARTED TO MELT ON THE WINDSCREEN. THERE APPEARS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT DIRECTLY UNDER THE WINDSHIELD (AND UNDER THE PASSENGER WIPER) THAT IS RELATED TO THE DEFROSTER. THIS OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, AND COLD (MORNING STARTUP).
