ENGINE
Purchased this vehicle in Oct of 2022. Since then, the vehicle lost all power and shut down on a major interstate in July 0f 2023 with many check engine lights coming on. After coasting to the shoulder of the road, I turned off the ignition, waited 15-20min, and the vehicle started. I continued my two hour drive back home, bring my truck into the dealer within 2 days of this occurring. The dealer looked at it, notified Toyota, and said they are seeing debris in the engines causing power loss, but that Toyota has not yet informed them of any remedies and to continue to drive the truck. A few months later, while towing a trailer the engine was making a knocking sound and lost power, only allowing me to reach about 2k RPM with the pedal to the floor. It lasted for about 10 min or so, and went away. After this incident, the truck makes a knocking sound while towing my 5K pound travel trailer, a few times every single time I tow. I did not bring it to the dealer for this issue. June 2024, I was towing my trailer for a camoing trip, and about 2 hours in to the 3 hour drive, the truck lost power and would not exceed 3K rpm or 45MPH on the interstate almost getting my hot by 3 different vehicles (the engine still knocks every time I tow), the loss of power lasted off and on until I made it to my camp site. I parked truck, and it sat for 3 days while we used our other vehicle to drive around in. On the way back home on that Sunday, the truck regained power, but would still make a knocking sound under load. I brought it into the dealer on the day after (Monday). I also uncovered thaty Toyota released a statement that all Dealer should stop selling my model year truck due to a "Safety Recall', one that describes the symptoms I've been having. The tech at the dealer was in communicaion with Toyota, and Toyota was teeling them that unless they could replicat ethe issue, there was nothing they could do. I have more to write.

We are the first owner of this 2005 Toyota Tundra Limited with only 91K miles. The frame is rusted so badly that we are afraid to drive down the road. This rusted problem could cause potential harm or death to us and others on the road.

ENGINE
On 6-5-24 I had an engine oil leak and reported it to Knoxville Toyota they said this was a minor issue. On 6-10-24 on my way to work the truck started to dump oil, the engine started to fail. I drove it straight to the dealership. I feel this is a safety risk because it was dumping oil on the road and the engine could have blown causing me to lose power and potentially lose control of the truck.

ENGINE
This Engine Recall has me concerned for the safety and security of my family. The fact that my engine can stall and fail at anytime is unacceptable especially for how much I spent on this vehicle. Toyota should be buying these trucks back from us and issuing new ones that don't have this issue. We customers are stuck with vehicles we can't sell or trade in and it is very upsetting to spend 60k on a vehicle that is essentially unsafe and virtually worthless two years in.

STRUCTURE:BODY
The rear passenger window trim will come loose and could fly off and hit other vehicles. I have brought this back to the dealer twice and they claimed to have replaced it but it is still malfunctioning. Upon MY investigation it seems like the actual door was not hemmed properly thus not allowing the window trim to seat and stay seated. The driver's side rear door does not have this issue. Furthermore, I have checked new vehicles in the dealer's inventory and found the same issue on multiple NEW vehicles at North Park Toyota in San Antonnio, TX.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
At a four way stop, four cars were stopped waiting for a car with right of way to turn left. Car turning left hesitated. I began to accelerate since myself and another car going straight had next right of way. Another car began to enter intersection so I let off the throttle and began to apply brakes for them to clear the intersection. This car also stopped seeing me begin to go so I hit the throttle as the intersection was clear for me. The truck, still rolling did nothing when I applied the throttle. I applied upwards of 50% throttle while the truck did nothing for approximately 2 seconds. I let off the throttle completely, for approximately 1 second and hit the throttle again to about 50% to quickly clear the intersection and not cause further confusion. The truck then lurched forward and accelerated rapidly where I had to again back off the throttle. This has happened multiple times. Another time turning left directly into the road (no intersection) pulling out of a shopping center. Pressed the throttle to about 50% after a slight hesitation to check traffic and clear oncoming traffic and the truck did nothing for approximately 2 seconds leaving me partially in the road waiting for acceleration. Let off throttle completely for 1 second and pressed again 50% and truck lurched forwards. Too close of a call for comfort.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The Digital Instrument Cluster continues to have freezing issues as well as blacking out while driving. From our previous experiences, this is more than likely due to software. There was a Safety Recall (23TA02) that was suppose to address some of these issues, but they continue to exist and happen. Not to mention that the fuel level will reset to FULL even though the vehicle has been driven for most, if not all, of the usable fuel. This continues to happen on 2024 model year vehicles.

Concerning this particular recall, 24ta07-Engine may stall during driving, we were told is unfixable. If this vehicle cannot be fixed, we are demanding it be replaced with a reliable truck

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The Digital Rearview Mirror in our Platinum model has cut out since new. While the mirror can turn into a traditional mirror, it is random in nature and it can cause a hazard when it happens while driving at 70MPH and you have to switch it over. Toyota did try to resolve the issue by replacing the camera that is fed to the Digital Rearview Mirror, but the issue is not resolved. We are not awaiting a replacement mirror to come in. Without our Extended Warranty, the part along has a cost of $2,351.08 WITHOUT labor included. This is a known issue across multiple vehicles and Toyota has not yet issued anything to address the issue.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Recall 23TA09 (Interim Remedy Notice 23TB09) is coming up on 11 months since it was introduced. It took until December 2023 for the Interim Remedy to be ready. We are approaching nearly a year since this was introduced with no full remedy, causing a decline in trade-in value and dealers are unable to sell these vehicles as TCUV (Toyota Certified Used Vehicles) due to the nature of the recall. And no with the latest recall, 24TA07, we will be left out for the foreseeable future due to the engine recall not having any remedy available. This really is unacceptable.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Suddenly the gas gauge shows tank isfull even that it can be empty. I took the truck to the dealer for this issue, but it seems that there isn't a fix. I've heard some other Tundra owners have the same issue. This can be dangerous if I trust the gauge and forget to fill the tank before towing my 7k trailer.

Toyota annouced a safety recall (23TA09) in August 2023 on a plastic fuel line that may leak due to rubbing. A temporary fix was available which my dealer installed, but its coming up to a year from the original recall with no remedy available. Why is this taking so long?

The Digital Instrument Cluster continues to have freezing and lagging while in motion. The DTE (Distance To Empty) has reset itself in the midst of driving with no input from the driver. This has continued to happen for multiple months. Also, the Fuel Gauge has become stuck. Toyota did release a TSB (T-SB-0022-23) to "resolve" this issue but it continues to be an issue well into the 2024 model year.
