- I'm surprised to see how many people still buy used Tundras that are almost guaranteed to have engine failure. I suppose some people just hate money...
From “reliability” to “liability” lol
OOF
Good one
Well said
@@Podchynok "Oh what a bad feeling"? 😀
Toyota destroyed 50 years of reliability in just one year
Well, to be fair the problems bubbled under since the LS500 launched, what, 6 years ago? But the number of units and market demographic let them ignore it. The fact that they ignored it and ramped up production numbers with a known troublesome engine... Inexcuseable, even if you're goal is to fleece everyone.
Hello, I am a HUGE Toyota head. I currently own 5 Toyotas and have owned many others over the years, with no issues. Now, I was patiently waiting for the new Tundra and Tacoma to come out, and after carefully reviewing other people's nightmare, I decided to buy a Nissan Frontier Pro-4X and have no regrets.
Me too, love Toyota, forced many family and friends to buy them and now they are deviating to say the least. I do have hope they'll get back on track. I was in the market for a Tundra but can't pull the trigger yet...
The Nissans are better now. Never thought I’d say that. But. It’s true.
Yeah lie so much
Good choice. The Nissan Frontier is a sharp truck and it's still built in America, unlike the new 4 cylinder Tacoma, which is built in Mexico now. (and the new Tacomas are also breaking down just like the Tundras with transmission issues.) Currently there are 30 new Tacomas in stock on my local dealers lot.
@51AB I have one of them for 25 years, no issues. Actually, none of them have given me any issues. Also, being #1 seller for years doesn't make a vehicle reliable. Some people just bite the marketing bullet easier than others.
I have a novel idea.
Let's put a 5.7 V8 naturally aspirated Engine back into the Tundra.
Now theyre finding head gasket issues on the 5.7s at higher mileage if you dont follow coolant maintenance so thats nice
@@Enchanted3DPrints 300k miles on my 5.7L V8 Tundra. Never had an issue with head gaskets.
This wouldn't fix the seats cracking and the radio knobs failing. Then whatever else is still in waiting for issues. They absolutely went cheap on this truck line.
@@Techcensorshipbot They will most likely just end up getting rid of the Tundra. It makes no sense, it's not even keeping Toyota competitive. They don't need the Tundra line.
I see first gen Tundra’s all over Texas. Toyota needs to recall all their engineers and get back to where they were 20 years ago quality wise.
My current Toyota will be my last Toyota. WTF happened to you Toyota?
Same!!!! Coming from a 2024 1794 hybrid max.
Same as every new car, greed and emissions standards
Dude it's ONE vehicle line 😭😭😭. The Tundra is not even Toyotas most profitable line.
@@tespenkr9924 greed
Toyota has HUGE debt and seems to be cutting corners PLUS Toyota has far too many models
That shit isn’t engine debris related I fell like. It has to be the bearing design.
It's weird, we do see some with higher mileage and no issues. I have a slightly older video on images posted from Ryan Gregg (Tundra guy), showing where all the debris is coming from. There was some really bad machining in these early on.
I think not as design as material of the parts
I agree!
yup, they are not being truthful, some type of design failure
Because they know the true-believers will fall for that engine debris nonsense. There's something more serious and catastrophic going on with the engine build.
and all the toyota fanboys are still saying, “it doesn’t matter! Toyota will make it right!”
What makes you think Toyota won't make it right?
This very bad.
Along with the engine and transmission problems.
Toyota, using very cheap plastic that is cracking. These trucks are not even five years old. 🤦🏼
I am a *"**#Toyota_Fan** Boy"* but I am honest.
Toyota fan girls are the worst...
While it's in the shop half the time. Good friend used to be a Ford truck man, as construction contractor he uses the hell out 'em. Last Ford he bought was so bad it barely made it a week between returns to the shop. After dozens of warranty repairs Ford told him their obligations to him were over despite the warranty only half over.
Last F he'll ever buy. (old story, F produced a famous lemon around 15 yrs ago)
They couldn’t even fix my driver seat which had electrical issues. I now know they have bigger fish to fry!
Tacoma's are no better. Problems reported on both transmission's now. Shame Toyota!!
Now there is no brand to go to for reliability 🤦🏼
Honda...
Buy a Titan before they're gone!
All new stuff has problems, thats why its common knowledge to not buy immediately and wait for the 2nd and 3rd versions before buying.
Regardless of brand.
@@yuewon4001 We are talking TRUCKS here.
Toyota fan boy here. I’ve posted on numerous videos like this to make potential buyers aware of my experience with Toyota. I got both the Toyota tundra and Sequoia both hybrid and have nothing but problems with them. My issue went all the way to corporate after I complained about the vehicle, vibrating at a certain speeds. Toyota told me the vibration is a characteristic of the vehicle and when I told them that the vehicles should not be doing that at that price point, they told me the vehicle is operating as intended. I found out the hard way that it’s cheaper for me to go upside down on both my vehicles than to take legal action. I have been loyal to Toyota since 1996 and this is the first time I’m actually considering a Ford. Ford also do have their issues, but based on what customers are saying, Ford is standing behind their product. It’ll be hard for Toyota to earn back my trust after what they did, but until then I will continue my campaign to make prospect buyers aware of Toyotas despicable customer service, and severe decline in quality control.
Wow. A water pump just ripping off like that is wild.
Yeah that one shocked me....and you can't really mount them incorrectly IMO....the cast just broke...
So manufacturers double the price and cut the quality 60%. They make EV vehicles 5% of the population want. It's like they are getting paid or blackmailed by the Government.
I use to work for Toyota Corporate. They are a top heavy company with a bunch of people who aren't car guys. Toyota is like a team that has won multiple Super Bowls. Eventually you start believing your own hype and you start to cut corners. They are not hungry anymore.
Really? Because of one line? C'mon, it is the Tundra line. It's probably Toyotas LEAST selling line world wide 😭😭. And people acting like it's going to take down Toyota. The Rav4 probably outsells the Tundra 4:1. Toyota doesn't need the Tundra to remain competitive. At this point, they should just get rid of it and focus on their other lines.
@@westcoastplinkin6559all New Toyota’s are cheaper builds and the New Tundra and Tacoma are epic fails. People are having a lot of electrical issues with all their Toyota models because they used Soy for wire harnesses and coating electronic wires and boxes. They deserve the bad press and outrage.

@@PheonixRises2040 I just think it's funny people are honestly thinking this is Toyotas downfall when literally the Tundra is one of Toyotas smallest vehicle line in terms of sales.
Yet dopes are still buying them. I dont get it.
Most people don't do any research its a constant thing I find out on a near daily basis. My grandfather bought a Lexus didn't know it had a v8 or took 91 octane, since it was only a better Toyota.

Fanboys & brand loyal customers. They can break down once a month and they will still defend it.
@@shawnn6926 it took the better part of the 1970s and 1980s for American automakers to hit an all time low on their reputation. I'm sure Toyota fanboys can withstand the better part of this decade defending their products
What if they are totally reliable after you get one is he stupid ? As I'm at 23k not a single issue 2023 trd pro great truck
Toyota should give a 100k warranty to all the tundras for customers to gain confidence on their products again.
agreed but i must say...even then, who wants to get to 100k miles this way? that's torture.
That is why Nissan for the Titans gave you $100,000 me cuz they know it would last
100k is nothing. I keep my cars for 250-300k miles, and have never had an engine go less than 250k miles. No way am I buying a tundra.

Good luck with those head gaskets.
@@josefgerken4002 I have a 2008 5.7L V8 Tundra with 300,000 miles. Never had an issue with head gaskets.
Yeah those 5.7 V8s were the most bulletproof trucks you could buy. New year models are usually bad but on top of that it's first year for these turbo V6s. Not a good time to buy a truck.
The only thing bad about the old Tundra V8 was the looks. Looked like a big corolla lol. The new one at least is better looking.
But yeah like he's pointing. Toyota quality ain't what it used to be.
Never selling my 2020 trd tundra
I plan on keeping my '17 Tacoma till it hits 300K or the wheels fall off.
I traded my 22 Tundra in with 33k miles. My local dealership has 5 Tundras towed in waiting for the replacement motors. Toyota did a stop sale on the Grand Highlanders for airbags not deploying.....Craziness that was my 1st and last Toyota.
what did you replace it with?
They are all too complicated.
did you take a bath at the trade in? That's what I've been hearing from other owners when they tried to get rid of their Tundras
It IS a debris problem! Absolutely! When the engine goes boom! 💥 the debris goes all over the place
Bruh.
Last July when I got my new Tacoma, I received 2 keys. The sales person was surprised that I got 2 and I was surprised why she would be surprised about getting 2 keys?! She said we dont normally give 2 keys out anymore lol. Unreal
L😂L
That was for a shortage of beeper chips
That's crazy!
My 2023 Tundra blew in July at 24k miles. Luckily, Toyota lemoned it. Just closed the lemon case last week - what a relief!
What happened? Did you get all your money back, all payments, taxes, everything?
@@mdf8884 2023, not originally identified in the recall, truck motor died at a stop light no warning at all. After a month of repairs etc I opened a case to buyback and it was accepted. Yes, every dollar back, down payment, taxes, every monthly payment. Less 10cents/mile up to the point of failure (2400 miles).
@@AdventureBoyzTV who did you open it with? In other words who do you call?
My 2001 F150 with the 2V 5.4 at 240k miles still going strong.
Toyota should have stuck with the V8 and just updated it.
I wont buy one. I never owned a Toyota. The car care nut bought a Tundra. Wonder how that is working out for him?
He is too busy fixing cars. And Video taping to be able to put a lot of miles on his truck.
At this point I think he owns four different vehicles.
At least he can fix it! Probably will make a good video too.
Car Care Nut = ToyoTuRD Grifter Clickbaiter
@@jeffsharp6771What a horrid idea. Just dumb.
I bought a Nissan Titan Platinum in early July. Carmax offered me 5k over sticker. The V8 and reliability of that engine is the main reason why.
Great move
Does it have a CVT?
Just dump it before 80k. The VK56 was a fantastic engine in its original form, but that was 2 decades worth of emissions targets ago. Now, the direct injection and battery voltage detecting charging systems added make them a barrell of problems, too. Sludge, cats, incessant dead batteries. Not engine failure, but not great.
@@mdf8884 no, it comes with a 9 speed. Same transmission as the Frontier
Once they pull the cab, remove the engine, strip everything off it, replace the shortblock, and then reassemble the whole mess i would never trust the truck again. It would always be in the back of my mind. Nope, not for 80k....
I bought my '17 Tacoma because of reliability. It takes years to build up a reputation but can be quickly lost. I don't think I will buying another Toyota.
Poor Toyota reliability has officially gone down the shitter 🤣
Didn't take them long to go down the shiter
Traded in my 2024 TRD 1794 with 4000 miles. It was plastic ill fitting junk. Drivers seat not working from day one and Toyota said no fix yet! When the recall happened I traded it in and since then, 3 months ago it’s dropped on KBB 6k. Toyota has issues in general.
but is there anything better on the market? What did you trade it for?
I did the same thing with a 24 Tundra TRD PRO, dumped it for a 24 4Runner and have zero regrets. The build quality on the 4Runner is simply miles ahead of the Tundra. The Tundra was great for about 2000 miles then was literally falling apart piece by piece. The engine black cloud was the final straw, I just couldn’t live with a potential catastrophic engine failure looming overhead along with the crappy build quality. I do blame myself for overlooking the build quality. I should have noticed and rejected the truck on that alone but I was a ‘fan boy’ and said ‘this is a Toyota it has to be a quality build’. Heck if I had taken the time to ‘notice’ the felt wheel well liners I probably would’ve passed on this overpriced POS at the start 🤦♂️ . Oh well, live and learn!
@@StripedTurkey it was my 4th Toyota didn’t think I needed to research the truck. As you said live and learn and get burned!
@@ronkaye1957 Crazy right?! It was my 4th also, I always wanted a Tundra and never thought it would turn out to be such a nightmare. I really can’t believe what Toyota has become. I had great luck with the 4Runner platform in the past so I figured I’d go back to it before they messed up this vehicle next with the 2025. Good luck with whatever vehicle you get next!
@@StripedTurkey I’m curious what the new 4Runner will be like quality wise. It’s new and has the 4cyl engine but it’s also made in Japan. I’m wondering if it will be as bad as the Tundra.
I have a 2023 Tundra, waited 6 months for 2nd Key Fob. It only took 6 months of ownership and 10k miles for the cheap ass volume knob to break. I still can't believe that I had to make a stupid appointment at the dearlership for them to look at the volume knob and then make another appointment for them to install the volume knob.
Never thought I’d see the day I’d get a Ford or Chevy over a Toyota.
Obvious sign of impending apocalypse.
Up next;
The moon crashes into Asia.

Remarkable how we all used to think the Japanese culture was immune to the short sided greed that caused the demise of former American auto giants like GM and Ford in the 80's and 90's. Yet here we are in the 2020's, watching Toyota putting short term profits ahead of vehicle component reliability, durability, customer satisfaction and loyalty. One way owners can try to fight back is by purchasing less complicated base model Toyotas; e.g. the 2025 $30,000 Camry LE sedan instead of a $45,000 Toyota Crown Sedan.
I was by our local RAM dealership and noticed they had 4 Toyota trucks (2 Tacomas 2 Tundras). They looked like brand new trucks. Imagine trading in a Toyota…..for a RAM.
I did it. Lost my faith in toyota after 20+ cars and trucks bought in five continents over the last 30 years. Had several issues over the past four years. Ditched the capstone for a ram three months avo. Sorry to say but its a better truck.
I traded mine for a GMC. 22 TUNDRA. best decision ever
Going from the frying pan into the fire I say!
How confident are you going to be having a kid for a tech replace your entire frigging engine???? on a new truck???
yeah it's frustrating....I don't mind younger guys doing the work, they can work a lot harder than us older folks, but I'd sure like someone with experience monitoring such a big project. So many things could go wrong....
My understanding is the tech is paid half for warranty work. But I'm sure the average tech is not cutting any corners to finish the job as fast as possible.....
I think all dealerships pay rheir tech flat rate so they are always trying to get done as fast aa possibly.
This really leads me to think are they even really testing these vehicles anymore, all brands because they are failing in real world time too quick.
It's a design issue. Toyota is still trying to verify whatever remedy they are claiming will be the fix.

No problems with the Dmax turbo after 10 years.
The Hilux has turbos as well.
It's NOT the turbos, but the build quality. Look at the Nissan GTR with 3.8 twin turbo. A supercar with 600 hp stock, and it can take even more, and people race them, and they don't implode. What is their secret? The new Z with 3.0 turbo seems to be doing fine too.
Had a 16 Tacoma was not impressed with the power, driveability, seats or fuel mileage which was no better than an f150 with a five liter.
Tacoma gives you 4 cylinder power with V8 gas mileage
I have an ‘18. If you want any kind of power or drivability with these things you pretty much have to get a tune done. I have the overland torque tune and it makes a world of difference. Sucks but it is what it is
@@JokahFACE I have a 3rd gen and I never understood why people complain about the power. I don't have an OTT tune and I find it perfectly fine for daily driving. I think it's people that drive like maniacs that complain about the lack of power.

My theory is the last years of the conventional Toyotas pre-turbo era will become even more sought after as the years go on and the manufacturers built cheap crap,
I'll wave to your Tundra on the side of the highway as I go by in my F150 V8 with 150K miles and no issues.
I was at a Toyota dealer this past weekened and wow they had new ones overflowing on the lot. They could not get rid of them.
I do not believe in any way that this is a debris issue it's a main bearing issue it's a design flaw until they redesign this engine properly you're going to have engine failures
Perfect way for the company to spin it, because there's certainly going to be "debris" in the engine when it does spin a bearing...

@@shawnn6926 that's funny because no other full size brand is presenting low mileage catastrophic engine issues like Toyota. They had, hear me out 15 YEARS to work on a new generation and they brought a rushed turd. They rested on their laurels thinking people would keep on buying because "It's a Toyota!!".
It's not like if the EPA told them 1 year ago they had to build a more efficient powertrain, they already saw every other brand moving that route and they did nothing about it. They had plenty of time to test the powetrain but they didn't and what's also worth noting is some people say Toyota was forced to ditch the V8, yet GM and Ford still sell V8 trucks. The only thing Toyota needed was to keep both a V8 and a V6 or pair the V8 with the 10 spd to make it more efficient and maybe a taller gear ratio.
And what about all the interior plastics breaking down ? Does the EPA have any say on that or do we need any more proof that Toyota cheapened out with this generation?
Shame on Toyota.
The real crime besides selling trash is at the 8:00 mark. $1860 to replace seat controller on a 40k mile truck. That's incomprehensible to me not to mention the $936 you're going to spend every 40k. I'll stick with my 2010 Pre-runner thank you very much.

Before I bought my new 2022 2.7l Silverado I was looking at Tundras. The price was so jacked up I couldn’t possibly do it. $10k plus add ons. I’m glad I didn’t. My 2.7l has been just about as reliable as a hammer at 64k miles.
Thanks for making these videos. You are doing good work.

I'll give them 15k for a new Tundra. That seems fair given the quality of the new ones.
Bring back the 5.7 and the 4.7 in the tacoma I'll buy tomorrow who cares about the gas mileage
It is sad that this is the same company that brought us the 22R . Its as if the bean counters have all decided to cash out the goodwill off the balance sheet for six months of profits, with the result of completely destroying the company's reputation .
It would have been cheaper for Toyota to pay the epa fines and have kept the 5.7 V8.
I was a Toyota fan, but not now. Eyes are wide open now.
Shame Toyota. How unusual. What's up with this?
It is a shame 🤦🏼
So glad I bought a 2020 Tundra earlier this year.
My understanding is that a tech gets paid half for warranty work. To save time corners may be cut, like not torquing the water pump down correctly....
All the time it’s down for engine rebuilds/replacement, you’re making payments on a vehicle that can’t be used.
This is why I like my cast iron block 2tr-fe 4 banger. I only tow surfboards, paddleboards, and fishing gear. The cast iron block 2tr-fe is proven for over 25 years maybe longer as it was designed based on older engines. It's made in Japan and then shipped in a crate to the assembly plants in Mexico but they stopped putting them in Tacomas after 2023. If people don't actually need to tow anything heavy, they are stupid to buy the new Tundras.
140k miles on my 2018 Subaru Outback 2.5L ... always started up and got me going. Owned since 5mi. I still worry about the CVT blowing up but I am surprised it is more reliable than a new Toyota. And I love Toyotas
Toyota better be thinking about "getting back to the basics." When problems like the ones we are seeing start happening to a company known for putting out high quality vehicles, they need to return to what they know works. Stop letting the government EPA design your vehicles for you. That's a good start, and return your manufacturing operations to places that build good vehicles.
If they can’t make emissions standards they can’t be sold here, tundra’s aren’t made for Japan.
I put a deposit on and waited for a 22 when they first came out. I was super excited. Only ever bought toyotas, the 22 tundra was #6 - limited trd offroad fully optioned $60k. This past June I was lucky enough to get out of it and got a great deal on a new AT4. Never thought I'd buy an American truck. Everything you're reporting on in this video is 100% accurate. Not to mention the crazy rattles and noises from every corner of the cab and bed. This new gmc I'm in just feels so much better built.
That’s why I bought a 2024 Nissan Titan Pro 4X XD in Baja storm and I love it
Fan boys would defend a piece of dog poo if it came with a Toyota badge
Sounds like my uncle. He was bitten by the notorious V6 sludge issue in his Sienna (engine seized up, in spite of impeccable maintenance) and decided to buy another Toyota anyway. He also belittled me for buying a Chevy (just hit 146k miles last week) because my father had problems with his Chrysler’s transmission back in the 90s. Because, I dunno, apparently Chrysler makes Chevys or something. 🤷♂️
@@ClockworksOfGL they're as toxic as Tesla drivers
Life long Tundra owner here, I’ve never owned any other truck except Toyota. Started when they were just “Toyota pickup” back in the 90s, then owned two Tacoma’s and then 4 Tundras since then. I still love Toyota but did not get on the turbo bandwagon plus hated the looks of the new Tundra. Instead bought a 2023 Titan Pro4x and it’s precisely what I wanted in a Tundra. Very smooth and strong V8, smooth 9 speed transmission. I’ll repeat what I keep hearing, I wish Toyota would have made both a turbo and an updated V8 and transmission. Instead, I’ll give my Titan 5.6 VK engine and Mercedes co-developed 9 speed a try, loving it so far but time will tell. Wish the best for Toyota, still a huge fan.
Those Titans have been pretty good (V8 version). Haven't heard many issues on them and heard build quality is great.
I don’t ever wanna hear about Nissan CVT’s! All we heard was “should’ve bought a Toyota” 😒
to be fair, Nissan CVTs (in the early days) failed at an extremely high rate. Far worse than any toyota engine or trans issue.
Our Nissans with CVTs never gave us any problems or left us stranded: 2 Versas, 3 cubes, 2 Sentras, an Altima, 2 Maximas, a Juke & a Quest. Our last cube had nearly 200K on it with its original CVT before we sold it for a new 2021 Sentra. The key was proper recommended maintenance, which, unfortunately most owners do not adhere to. The CVTs in Honda CRVs, Accords and HRVs, as well as 2014+ Toyota Corollas, have been catastrophically failing as well. But the Nissan hater parrots avoid talking about those failures. 🦜 🦜 🦜 🦜
@@hkfan4596 exactly, in the early days. Nissans 3rd gen CVT is extremely reliable now. I’m actually addressing the arrogance of Toyota fan boys. They scream at the top of Toyota mountain anytime any other manufacturer has issues. Well, it’s their turn in the barrel 😏

Toyota has multiple platforms that have 3 major changes 1. body 2. Engine 3. Transmission all in the same year. Why the hell wouldn't they make the changes over different years.
I love watching your videos I'm an owner of a 2022 Toyota Tundra SR5 TRD Sports 4x4 I have 58,000 miles I do my oil change every 5,000 miles I just did my spark plugs at $45,000 Miles because when I brought my truck in for an oil change at 40,000 miles the spark plugs were backed order but I actually paid much less than the guy that he showed I paid $383 to change my spark plugs at my local Toyota dealership
My wife bought v6 Camry brand new. Has 1mz-fe motor in it. It has 403,000 miles on it. Neither the motor nor tranny have ever been opened up. I came on the seen around 2007 and took over maintenance care of it. I always use mobil 5w30 synthetic, wix filters…change every 5000 miles. Trany was switched to amsoil synthetic fluid. Drain and fill once a year.
Only thing that drives me crazy is rear valve cover gasket leak. I replaced once never again. Oil is cheap.
Oh Hell no. No way Toyota say it isn't SO. Used to be a great vehicle at a good price. Now is a good looking new piece of junk for an outrages price. Totally worthless.
My 2010 tundra cost me $60 for spark plugs did it myself
I'll never understand people who buy Toyota in 2024. I had three, and it took three of them to make me finally learn my lesson 😅
crazy..which three?

Was at the dealer this week sat in the new tundras and all I could think about was that only a poser would drive one of these things for real truck use. I was out getting my truck dirty mountain biking this weekend and thinking wow this would be terrible if I had that new truck with all its fancy nanny controls and leather interior for 75K
The guys that buy Toyota now because they USED to be good have been warned by numerous people on UA-cam and all you can say is it is what it is! When did they make a Tundra watercraft??? LOL🤣
I wouldn’t trust some dealership technician that isn’t even compensated adequately to do a short block engine rebuild with one as complex as the V35A twin turbo.
Full crate engine from Toyota’s factory or nothing, they can buy the entire truck back.
People are unaware and not doing their homework first
Imo Toyota went from the best to the worst, smh.
Can you believe there were idiots that were paying $10K over sticker when these came out in 2022. I paid sticker price for the first time in my 65 years for my 2022 that blew at 28,000 miles. Very happy with my replacement 2024 GMC HD gasser.
I sure like the looks of the GMC…
I was working last year in a dealership and 2 gentlemen from Irak came in and wanted to buy a Tundra TDR and they were willing to pay 90k cash on the spot but the salesman that was working with me let the guy’s offer down because he wanted 95k 😂😂😂 I wonder what about those people nowadays
You’d have to be insane to buy a new tundra rather than a ‘21 or older 5.7. Those trucks are pretty awesome. It’s like some people just want to throw away $.
Went and test Drove a 2023 crew cab limited, Drove nice just not big guy friendly. 64k with the manager special attached. Could not see making long trips in that truck. Once I got back in my 2021 crew cab I felt right back at home.
2021 the last good one, keep it as long as possible
My 04 Tundra still going strong. Gonna keep it. All brands are garbage now. A reflection of how everything in the world has turned to garbage
I haven't seen a single new tundra with 50k+ that hasn't had some sort of failure.
Making the Ford 5.4L 3V look like a champ! 🤣
Toyota quality has been going down hill for a while. Our brand new at that time 2018 trd Tacoma was a pile of f’ing junk. Transmission issues that were never figured out. The pre collision feature caused random brake lock ups on the highway at 65-70mph. Toyota replaced the sensor in the grille 3 times and reprogrammed it and it kept doing it. Nearly killed us a few times… We got so sick and tired of that lemon pos and wanted more truck anyways with at least rear air and offloaded it and traded it in for a brand new 2019 Camry for my wife and I went and bought a 2017 f250 6.7L “which has been absolutely flawless even with the amount of abuse I put that truck through” but not even joking when I say this next part. We traded in the Tacoma and not even a mile down the road from the dealer it throws a road and vented the block.. towed it back in and Toyota flew a engineer out to our dealer and after a day with the car they wanted the car back from us for testing purposes and they sent us another brand new 19 off the delivery and all and let us unwrap it and now that one is at 72k miles and rock solid. But we haven’t bought a Toyota since.. After all these story’s I really don’t trust them. The new tundra is no surprise to me but I knew it when they bent the knee to the eco nuts of the world and put those little eco turd fart cannons in a full size truck. Should of made it an option for the eco turd for the ones trying to save a few cents at the pump but not be the only option.. If the tundra had the 5.7L in the 22 and up it’s sales would be off the charts imo. If not off the charts at least a lot better then what they are now.
My 24 had a tick when at stop, it was a 3 tick every few seconds and would randomly rattle at 60 mph. Traded it off ate 8k
I find this odd as well. I think it’s crazy the number of YT videos of people buying these. I don’t care what deal they’re giving, no fing way!
It definitely seems like the powers that be at Toyota have flipped their concept of what kind of company they want to be. I’ve been driving a Toyota for the last 7 years, 3 different models, 4Runner, Sequoia and a Tacoma. All 2017 and newer. They aren’t that great of a vehicle but they have a reputation for amazing reliability. I loved the 4Runner but the engine was anemic and the seats were not great on longer trips. We got a sequoia and sold that after a year and bought a Tacoma and I am not happy at all with it. It hit the marks when shopping but it missed the mark on almost every point in real world use. Except it does get good mpg. I’m a retired GM designer and have driven a lot of brands over the years. It’s sad to see this happen and it’s also sad to see that no manufacturer can seem to make anything reliable anymore. You can’t even get good parts anymore. Companies are struggling with epa regulations for clean air and customer demand for performance and something has to give and obviously is.
Nobody's mentioned this. New tundra keys are $1,500 a piece.
I have been told MANY times...Oh Toyota is the best....only American vehicles are junk....I daily drive a 1997 Dodge Intrepid with 225,000 miles on it....best car I've ever owned. I'm laughing now. Toyota, "oh what a feeling".
@@mikejames-drummerreginacan1386 you mean the recital exam?
I cant imagine spend that kind of money and not knowing when its going to crap out. Only knowing it will. How can you even plan a road trip vacation?
My 22 model did 62k miles had a slight knock one morning then exploded and the shop tried not to take care of it
Was interested in the TRD Pro Sequoia and GX550 but I’ll be ordering and F250 Tremor Lariat with the 7.3 Godzilla instead. This engine fiasco and the fact they are the same price made it an easy choice.
