POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
On numerous occasions when I am at a stop sign leaving work and trying to accelerate onto the 4 line highway my vehicle acceleration has a delay in it causing me to not properly accelerate into traffic almost causing me to get hit on numerous occasions. I have complained about this situation to the dealer and was told once that it was normal for the delay and once that it is just a V6 engine so that is why the delay. I am sure that I am not the only person having this issue is a problem and will be the result of many accidents if not addressed.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
Vehicle failed to move forward or reverse from a stand still. Once vehicle is shutdown and restarted, the problem does not return. When vehicle was sent to dealer it couldn't be duplicated. If this issue occurs on the open road, it could cause a collision.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The transmission seems to be confused on which gear to select and hesitates to get the truck moving. It's happened to me at an intersection a few times and my car will inch forward but lags to accelerate, and vehicles behind me have been close to rear ending me. This is very reproducible in the mornings, it's very apparent or when the truck has been sitting off for a long period of time. After driving for a while it no longer happens. Every morning though this issue is apparent.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Pulling into traffic from a stop or near stop (such as a stop sign or yield sign), the vehicle does not respond to the gas pedal. After significant lag / hesitation, the vehicle lurches forward. This has happened multiple times starting around September 2023, and the problem is worse when the engine is cold (cold mornings) although it happens at all times to some extent. It seems to have gotten worst and happens almost daily at this point. There have been several times that the lag / hesitation has left me sitting in the middle of an intersection and almost caused me to be hit by other vehicles. I have had the vehicle in to the dealer 5 times for this issue and have been told it’s “normal” or they cannot replicate it. On the 5th time, Toyota corporate sent a representative Anthony Merejo, who verified in email that he experienced the hesitation and was sending the data back to Toyota engineering to see if there was a fix. That was about 6 weeks ago and I haven’t heard back.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Lag in acceleration. Press the accelerator and vehicle takes a few seconds to respond. Trying to right turn on intersection and due to acceleration lag almost got hit by another vehicle. The accelerator should respond immediately when pressed just like it does on all the other vehicles I have driven. This has happened on multiple occasions with this vehicle.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
In certain conditions, vehicle exhibiting unresponsive accelerator pedal. This appears to occur when vehicle is transitioning from a rolling stop to an acceleration condition. There is a 2-3 second delay and then the vehicle responds. T-SB-0111-22 has been applied to the vehicle, but condition remains This is causing an unsafe condition as one attempts to merge into traffic. Natural tendency is to apply more acceleration during these "dead pedal" conditions, and when power finally arrives, the vehicle lurches and sometimes will spin the tires. Numerous other people on forums have reported this condition and as of yet Toyota or Dealers have not been able to fix the problem

TIRES:TREAD/BELT
Tire tread is cracking and breaking away in small chunks. The tires are OEM (Toyota Tundra 22') Bridgestone Dueler H/T 265/70R18 model 685 with manufacture date of 1022. I do not feel safe driving on these tires due to tread rubber breaking away even in the middle of the tire. All four tires show cracks but both rear tires are worse of the four. I have had regular service and tire rotation by Toyota dealership but they did not notify me of the issue. The truck has 17K on it and tires have plenty of tread depth. Location of truck is in the southwest and not is used in cold environment.

ENGINE
Drove the truck to the store, upon starting it to leave the engine had a loud knocking and whining sound (the truck has only 38xxx miles). I drove directly across the street to the dealership who looked and listened to it and was then told that because there was no engine light on, I would have to make an appointment for later on the following week. They then told me because the engine light was not on that I would be fine to drive home. I did question this several times and was reassured that as long as I did not "gas it" I would be okay to drive it. On the ride home, my truck power kept surging, the entire truck was shaking due to the rough idle and the engine smelt like it was very hot. I did end up towing my truck to a different Toyota dealership that agreed to look at it. The truck is no longer drivable. This is the 10th recall on this truck.

ENGINE
Traveling on interstate with cruise control set. 55,xxx miles. Engine abruptly stopped running. Display indicated "engine stopped. Please stop vehicle immediately". Safety concern: Vehicle would not re-start to get off the interstate. Towed to dealer. Dealer acknowledges engine is blown. Toyota guidance is to rebuild engine from parts only. Short block, turbos, heads, coolers, etc. Unacceptable. Complete assembly replacement is more cost effective for manufacturer and dealer both. Note: There were no codes displayed or other indication prior to the abrupt failure.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
Purchased 2024 Toyota Tundra from dealer brand new with 3 miles. Noticed tapping noise coming from engine area. Reported to Service and Toyota specialists claimed to be normal. Same day recall 24TA07 was reported for engine debris found from production machining. Dealer suggested to take to another dealer for second opinion. Second dealer also claimed it is normal, but still they are replacing torque converter and transmission to try and eliminate the noise that they claim is normal. Videos of engine noises are not able to be uploaded. They can identify the problem is happening on 2024 Tundra as well.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Took delivery of 2024 Toyota Tundra in January 2024. Dealer did not inform me of the 1 key fob now the second one later as part of sales process. Only when I finalized delivery was I informed of this condition. Was promised the second key fob in a few weeks. It’s now 5 months later and all previous dates for the second key fob have come and gone. Projections went from January, to March, May, July and now August. It’s a safety issue because users should have both key fobs promised in the owners manual on page 110.

ENGINE
I have lost engine power while driving highway speeds on more than one occasion. There is no consistency on when this condition occurs. The engine light comes on and the engine goes into limp mode. Under the current circumstances, my Tundra is unsafe and poses a hazard to me and communities at large. This is because there is something faulty with my Tundra that is causing the sudden loss of engine power. Once I pull to the side of the highway, turn off the engine, then restart the Tundra the engine light goes away and the truck operates normally and does not register a fault code.
