ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Toyota has failed to deliver second key fob for vehicle operation. Purchased vehicle 5/4/24 and keep being told I will be notified in future about when 2nd key fob will be available. Cannot operate vehicle if fob lost and in area with no cell coverage. Dealership and corporate contacts have repeatedly changed the anticipated date of resolution, leaving no real sense of when issue will be resolved.

ENGINE
The vehicle is currently awaiting repair at the Toyota Dealership. The turbo froze. This is the second turbo to freeze on this truck. It was previously repaired by Toyota in April, 2024. This truck had 2,356 miles on it when the second turbo froze on July 31. The check engine light and reduced power indicators have displayed throughout both incidents. The service manager has yet to explain why this is happening in the engine system. As of today, I cannot find a recall on the truck when I use the VIN.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
It has been over one year since NHTSA Recall Number23V566 was issued (10 August 2023) and the final remedy is still not available. Safety of vehicle owners (and families) must not be very high on Toyota's or NHTSA's priority list. NHTSA must make Toyota take immediate action to correct this fire hazard. Waiting one year for a remedy for this fire safety hazard is way too long.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I have a 2022 Tundra with 18,700 miles on it that is part of the recall for a new engine! This is my fourth tundra, and the materials used in the 3rd Gen are sub-par to say the least! I have already had to replace the actuator and motor in my passenger window because it was stuck halfway open/closed and it took the dealership almost 2 weeks just to get the parts and put them in. My tailgate isn't aligned properly and the mold growth on all the rubber window trim is a nightmare as well as the roof wells that are also covered in mold up and down both sides. My rear passenger door doesn't close correctly and nobody at Toyota knows how to fix any of these issues! I am very concerned about a dealership putting a new engine in my truck when they can't even change the oil or rotate my tires correctly. I also have other serious issues like, I feel a giant thud like somebody rear ended me when I step on the gas from a red light or stop sign and sometimes when I step on the gas on the highway and it scares the heck out of me. It almost feels like the back of my truck fell off. When it's raining out and my hood is covered in water and then the rain stops and I turn my windshieldwipers off, the water that rolls down the hood is spit straight into my windshield from the radiator fan! I also took it to the dealership to fix the fuel line recall, and they said they don't have the parts available, it's been over 2 weeks now and the recall was issued last year.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
While on highway truck decelerated on its own. We were trying 70 mph and the truck dropped to 60 mph while the gas pedal was still manually engaged. Its becoming an increaingly regular problem that the car will not accelerate from a complete stop, even with gas pedal fully engaged. Potential for accident is high, as there is no reliability when pulling out into traffic. Dealership ran diagnositic check during service, was unable to pin-point issue - - is also 2 to 3 months out on service schedule, so issue was reported early June to dealership but unable to service vehicle until mid-August. Dealerships advice was to report directly to Toyota - since no recall remedy was issued for engine issue and the acceleration issue isn't specifically named in their most recent recall for the 2022 model.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
The problem was identified approximately August 2023 and they claim there is no remedy for the problem as of today. However, they are selling the 2024 identical models without the issue. This means they have fixed the problem and not trying to remedy the problem in the vehicles that are already sold. Possibly fuel leaks and a fires are a serious problem that risking injuries, deaths or loss of properties. They need to be held accountable for an expedited solution. Thanks

ENGINE
My truck has a build date of January 17, 2023. I have not received a recall notice despite it being included in the date range for replacement. The dealership told me the engine was produced from another plant that did not have the debris problem. I am only aware of this engine being produced at the Huntsville, AL engine plant. I believe my engine should be included in this recall.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I have a 2022 Tundra that I purchased new. My current mileage is 18,500 and although my truck is part of the engine replacement recall that is not what I am complaining about, what I am complaining about is my front passenger window got stuck halfway open/closed and it's been sitting at the dealership for 2 weeks with no parts available to fix it (the cable snapped and motor burned out). They did put me in a rental (tacoma) but they have no idea when the parts will be available to fix my window! This is my 4th Tundra and never had an issue like this with any of my others. I've already called Toyota and they have no idea when parts will be available either. They also said they have no parts to fix the temporary fuel line recall which has been out for almost 1 year.
