2019 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH THE WARNING LIGHT 'ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDALS DEPRESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY ' CAME ON AND THE TRUCK SLOWED DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY, WHICH ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT BEING USED WHILE DRIVING.

VEHICLE PARKED ON BOAT LAUNCHING RAMP 25-30% SLOPE CONCRETE SURFACE WITH 24 FOOT ALUMINUM TRAILER IN TOW; BOAT OFF TRAILER, TRUCK FACING AWAY FROM WATER, TRAILER CLOSEST TO WATER. SUNNY, RAMP WAS DAMP, WITH SOME WOOD AND AQUATIC VEGETATION ON RAMP. VEHICLE WAS IN 2 WHEEL DRIVE. AFTER UNLOADING BOAT USING A LAUNCH CORD AND PULLING BOAT ONTO RAMP, DEPRESSED BRAKE AND MOVED SHIFTER FROM DRIVE TO PARK. PARK ENGAGED AND STEPPED FROM VEHICLE WHEN TRUCK BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARD. LUNGED INTO CAB, SAW SHIFTER WAS NOW IN NEUTRAL! WAS ABLE TO REACH SHIFTER AND ATTEMPTED TO PUT INTO PARK. GEAR SHIFT MOVED TO PARK BUT VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL AND I HEARD AN AUDIBLE CLICKING FROM TRANSMISSION AREA. TRUCK (AND ME) CONTINUED BACKWARD INTO LAKE, ALMOST DROWNED BUT FOR HELP OF A GOOD SAMARITAN ON SHORE. WHEN TRUCK RECOVERED IT WAS IN PARK, WRECKER OPERATOR HAD TO MANUALLY BYPASS THIS TO LOAD ON FLATBED. MY PRIOR 2019 TUNDRA CREW CAB DID SAME THING I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED. IN 2007 ON YOUR SITE SOMEONE REPORTED SAME TUNDRA ISSUE UNDER CONTROLLED CONDITIONS. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK'S TRANSMISSION. NEVER HAPPENED UNDER ANY OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES BUT I ASSURE YOU IT IS GOING TO RESULT IN SOMEONE DYING I ALMOST DID. BOTH CLAIMS HANDLED BY USAA INSURANCE, DATE OF ACCIDENT MONDAY, 5 AUG,

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA TUNDRA. WHEN THE CONTACT DIMMED THE HEADLIGHTS, THERE WAS LIMITED VISIBILITY. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO SEE MUCH FURTHER BEYOND THE HOOD. THE CONTACT DESCRIBED THE CONDITION AS BEING SIMILAR TO HAVING A BRICK WALL IN FRONT OF HIS VEHICLE, BLOCKING THE HEADLIGHTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DICK DYER TOYOTA (240 KILLIAN COMMONS PARKWAY, COLUMBIA, SC 29203, (803) 786-4111) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE IN THE SPECIFICATIONS FOR PARTS. THE DEALER ONLY TESTED THE VEHICLE DURING THE MORNING RATHER THAN AT NIGHT WHEN THE TESTING WAS NEEDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE MANUFACTURER CALLED THE DEALER AND CONFIRMED THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,500.

REAR AXLES AREN'T THE PROPER FIT, CAUSING THEM TO SHAKE WHICH CAUSES THE ROTORS TO VIBRATE THAT PRODUCES AN SQUEAKY/STRETCHING NOISE WHEN BRAKING. WAS ORIGINALLY TOLD IT WAS NORMAL UNTIL I CONTACTED TOYOTA CUSTOMER CARE. SERVICE TECHS STATES THAT 'IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE' BUT I DIDN'T TRUST IT. MY TRUCK ISN'T THE ONLY TRUCK, THERE ARE SERVAL MORE THAT MAKING THIS SAME EXACT NOISE. ABOUT TO TURN MY TRUCK BACK IN TO TOYOTA UNDER THE LEMON LAW.

LESS THAN 3000 MILES WHEN INCIDENT HAPPENED. WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH ON A HIGHWAY THE DASH SCREEN SAID BRAKE AND A CHIME WAS HEARD. IT WAS LATE EVENING 3 DAYS AGO AND THEIR WAS ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME. MY INITIAL REACTION WAS TO BRAKE HOWEVER I DID NOT. IT ALSO HAPPENED TWO ADDITIONAL TIMES AT ABOUT 45 MPH ON THE FINAL FEW MILES FROM MY HOME. THE INDICATOR DID NOT STAY ON LONG ENOUGH TO GET A PHOTO OF IT. WHEN I RETURNED HOME I FILED A CASE WITH TOYOTA USA. I THEN CALLED THEM THE NEXT DAY. TODAY I CONTACTED THE DEALER ABOUT TAKING IT IN FOR THE TO CHECK. AT THAT TIME THE SERVICE REP ADVISED ME THERE IS A RECALL ON THE PART SENSOR ON THE ANTI COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. I RECEIVED AN EMAIL REPLY FROM TOYOTA USA HOWEVER THE REPLY DID NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANY INFORMATION , OTHER THAN THE CASE WAS GOING TO BE ENTERED INTO THEIR DATABASE. THEY WILL PLACE A FOAMY TAPE ON THE BACK OF THE SENSOR AFTER RUNNING A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT. THIS SEEMS A BIT UNDER DONE AND A BAND AID FOR WHAT COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD. IF IT IS A WATER ISSUE (NO RAIN ON THE DAY IT HAPPENED AND DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE WAY TO MY DESTINATION) I RESEARCHED THE VIN FOR THE RECALL AND I RECEIVED "THERE IS NO RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH MY VIN, ANSWER. HOPEFULLY THE NHTSA WILL DO A SIMPLE WEBSITE SEARCH AND SEE THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE. I PREFER NOT TO HAVE ANY SAFETY ISSUES WHILE TRANSPORTING MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA TUNDRA. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE SUN ROOF EXPLODED WITHOUT IMPACT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BIG TWO TOYOTA OF CHANDLER (1250 S GILBERT RD, CHANDLER, AZ 85286) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE THE SUN ROOF. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,142.

PCS SYSTEM ON 2019 TOYOTA DISPLAYS THAT THE SYSTEM IS "ON" BUT THE ICON ON THE DASH SHOWS "OFF". I HAVE PICS TO PROVIDE PROOF. BEEN HAPPENING BEFORE THE FIRST SRVC ON THE TRUCK. WHEN IN DURING SRVC TO EXPLAIN, DEALERSHIP DIDN'T FIND PROBLEM. LEFT AND IT CAME BACK ON AGAIN. SINCE THE 5K SRVC THIS HAPPENS PRETTY MUCH DAILY, I'M NOT SURE IF THE PCS IS GOING TO WORK OR NOT AS I HAVE BECOME LEARY OF THIS FEATURE BEING A SAFETY FEATURE AND MORE OF AN ANNOYANCE WITH TOYOTA NOT TAKING OWNERSHIP IN CORRECTING IT. MULTIPLE FORUMS ON THIS SUBJECT HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED AND OTHER CASES HAVE BEEN STARTED AT NHTSA FOR THIS SAME CONTINUED PROBLEM. A SAFETY FEATURE THAT DOESN'T WORK ISN'T A SAFETY FEATURE; IT'S A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN.

WHILE DRIVING WITH THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SET A MESSAGE WILL APPEAR "RADAR CRUISE CONTROL UNAVAILABLE CLEAN SENSOR". THIS MESSAGE WILL APPEAR WITH NO ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS. DUE TO THIS ERROR THE CRUISE CONTROL NO LONGER WORKS AND THE PRE-COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM NO LONGER WORKS. ALSO RANDOMLY A "BRAKE!" MESSAGE WILL APPEAR AND THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY SLAMS ON THE BRAKES WHEN NO EMERGENCY EXISTS CREATING A HAZARD FOR VEHICLES BEHIND.
