POWER TRAIN
Vehicle before 1200 miles had to have driveshaft, rear differential and transfer case replaced outright due to faulty parts from factory. Vehicle was cleared from lot multiple times with claims of "noisy" rear brakes despite consumer insistence vehicle had drivetrain issues. Vehicle ultimately received rebuild with factory OEM parts.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN
The vehicle suffers extreme throttle lag. Pulling away from a stop sign, or turning into traffic the vehicle does not respond to gentle acceleration. After a few seconds the vehicle jumps forward almost as though it jumps into gear. This has left me sitting in intersections and has placed me in several dangerous situations. This is a safety hazard.

TIRES
Cannot find the correct tire size in the drop-down. But these tires are Bridgestone Dueler H/T 265/60/20 685. These tires are extremely unstable on this vehicle going any rate of speed on the highway with rigid surface. The vehicle sways back-and-forth as if it was on ice and has a little to no control road conditions are clear when this happens. Even worse when it rains I want to take the vehicle on the highway. I believe due to the gap of the tread pattern. They are catching on the grooves and throw the vehicle back-and-forth dangerously. I had also had a trailer that weighed an estimate of 8500 pounds with the tires, and was worse as the trailer would fishtail tire pressure is at factory recommendation as well. These tires need to be reevaluated and does not belong on this type of vehicle. There are no warning lamps that come on other than a very unstable ride. My vehicle was involved in an accident due to a driver swerving directly into our lane on the highway as a result of trying to gain control. The tires were very unstable, and did not have control as a result of trying to gain control on the passenger side of my truck I slid in the concrete barrier when trying to correct the steering.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Throttle sticks. When pressing acceleration pedal down from a stop or from a change of reverse to drive, there is a 2 second lag. This issue can cause serious problems if you’re pulling out from a stop sign. A burst of acceleration then happens after the 2 second lag, causing cabin disturbance.

TIRES:SIDEWALL
I own a 2023 Tundra, 4601 miles at the time of incident. While driving at 55mph, the driver's rear tire experienced a blowout. Upon examination, an approximately 100mm vertical split in the sidewall of the tire was evident. Photographs at the time of the incident show no impact to the tire from road debris, nor had I noticed any impacts that would have caused the failure. I had driven all 4601 miles on the truck and at no point had I noticed any observable defects on the tire prior to the sudden rupture. There was no warning prior to the sudden failure of the tire. During the event, I struggled to maintain control of the vehicle until I could bring it to a stop. As of the time of the report (4/18/23, 8:19AM) the tire is in my possession. P265-60R-20 Yokohama Geolandar X-CV.

SERVICE BRAKES
Brake rotors warped at 30,000 miles. Thats ridiculous. I went 230,000 on my 2011 Tundra with the original rotors when I sold it. There is an issue with the braking system or the technician may have improperly torqued my lug nuts. I personally think Toyota has an issue.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
When driving into direction of the sun, the design of the hood has a reflection that hits the driver right in the eye with a magnified and stunningly bright glare. It is so blinding even with sunglassses on that I have to drive with one hand up in view of driving blocking it in order to be able to continue driving. It is every time you drive into the direction of the sun. Incredibly dangerous.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
1. There is some sort of severe throttle lag/takeoff issue that happens intermittently, but almost always several times a day. always from a stopped position. 2.When you are turning left (going across the oncoming lane) you hit the gas pedal and nothing happens for 2-3 seconds and then it shoots off like a rocket ship. I have never been so close to a severely injured or more likely fatal car crash. this severity has happened twice, once with my daughter in the car. 3. Not yet. looks like there had almost been a class action law suit back to 2022 model year (same engine I believe). 4. No 5. No warning lights ever. as stated this is going back to 2022 and i haven’t visited a dealer yet as they tell the owners (there is no fix for the issue). hoping this forum can make a difference.
