| Dec 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I continuously experience throttle delay when accelerating from a stop. This has almost led to being hit several times when pulling out into an intersection. This seems to be a common issue for newer Tundras | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Throttle hesitation from stop. Delay in acceleration poses a safety risk when driving. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The vehicle does not predictably respond to throttle inputs (if it responds at all), when you come off the brake pedal it will begin rolling at "idle" speed as normal but when you begin to increase throttle input NOTHING will happen for several very important seconds as you roll into an intersection or need the vehicle to accelerate to maneuver. This had happened multiple times before scheduling service appointments. The day BEFORE my appointment while trying to make a right hand turn from EB 13st St in Lemont IL to SB Bell Rd, i had stopped for the red light, verified clearance to make the turn, and began my maneuver. Once I came off the brake pedal the vehicle began to roll into the intersection but as I began to turn the vehicle and try to accelerate though the turn it did not respond WHATSOEVER. I desperately tried to roll my vehicle into the ditch to make space the incoming vehicles to minimize danger, but had no power to do so and was violently T-boned. The vehicle was brought to the dealer for their analysis, the service manager initially claimed "I know exactly what it is" and continued to ask questions that prompted previous knowledge of this issue including what speeds and conditions it will occur at.. two weeks later the vehicle is "ready" and the manager claims the "eprom" had 2 pages of codes in it and that "got rid of the hesitation" I take him for a test drive with me and was able to recreate the issue a few times at which point he said "i understand your frustration with the truck but its a GOOD TRUCK" I drove the truck a few days and continued to experience dangerous and unpredictable delays in throttle response, one of which almost caused me to be rear-ended by a semi while merging from IL-rt83 onto I-55 nb The vehicle has been left behind on a family road trip as it is not safe enough for my family. In hind sight I wish I had the opportunity to submit it to NHTSA for examination after the crash rather than than Toyota. PLEASE DO SOMeTHING | Crash: Yes Fire: No Towed | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | Stopped at a stop sign at an intersection. Intersection is 4-way, with only a 2-way stop. After ensuring cross-traffic was clear, initiated a left turn from being stopped at the stop sign. Released the brake pedal and began to accelerate.Truck only accelerated to 5mph, and then began to roll/drift into the intersection with no power. No response from gas pedal. Drifted into intersection and was nearly struck by an oncoming vehicle. Accelerator finally responded, lagged once more when attempting to accelerate quickly to get out of the intersection, and then began responding appropriately. I could have been T-boned by another motorist while drifting without acceleration ability through an intersection. My foot was firmly on the gas pedal, with no response. This was only one of two occurrences of this, the truck has not been serviced by the dealer for this issue. No warning lights were displayed at the time, nor did any illuminate. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | When making a left turn or pulling off from stop light the truck almost stalls out. Very dangerous when traffic is coming. Need a fix ASAP. Could cost people their lives. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | While starting to accelerate from a stop whether it is going straight or turning the truck hesitates and takes multiple seconds to start accelerating leading to a potentially dangerous situation especially when turning and you can't get out of oncoming traffics way. Also when at a slow roll trying to accelerate the truck just does not apply any power for multiple seconds delaying movement and potential to avoid an accident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | ENGINE | Engine maintenance bearing failed at highway speed. I was able to coast to the roadside because there was no other traffic. Engine would not restart. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Throttle delay/ hesitation that is very unpredictable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The throttle lag is a major safety concern. When pulling way from a stop there is a huge delay in throttle response. This is consistent and has caused me to have several close incidents and nearly an accident. This is a programming issue that Toyota needs to address. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,BACK OVER PREVENTION,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I was at a tea intersection and I needed to pull into traffic. This is the second time it’s happened by the way. And the traffic was pretty heavy, but if I really put on the grass, I’d be able to get into my lane no problem and as I was going to get into the lane and merge in the traffic, the gas shut off the brake warning went on because cars were coming at me to my left. I believe it’s the Toyota safety sense that stopped the gas into my car. The throttle was nonresponsive for a second or so, and it almost caused an accident the dealership has been made aware and the shop foreman says it’s a problem with Toyota safety sense and they told me they documented it when I brought my car in. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Vehicle experiences electronic throttle lag that causes the vehicle to not accelerate when pressing on the accelerator pedal. Then it accelerates excessively and nearly uncontrollably before coming under control. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The vehicle will stall or lag during acceleration from stop or during regular driving while trying to accelerate. Happens continuously throughout ownership of the vehicle. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | ENGINE | Making a right turn from a stop. I pressed the accelerator and the vehicle barely moved. Cars were coming in my direction and I had to move. I let off the accelerator quickly pressed the accelerator again. The vehicle did start moving at normal rate. This first attempt was very concerning and almost caused me to get in an accident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | On several occasions when attempting to accelerate from a complete stop, the vehicle fails to accelerate, or begins to accelerate and then ceases, leaving the vehicle partially out into incoming cross traffic. This occurs for a second or two before acceleration resumes. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | ENGINE | Vehicle randomly stalls or experiences throttle lag/acceleration hesitation particularly when trying to accelerate quickly through intersections and while turning. Almost seems as if the vehicle loses power all together and then quickly comes back. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | When applying the brakes at highway speeds the vehicle shakes violently. If in a turn of going downhill you have to release the brakes so you don’t lose control of the brakes. Started happening at 10,000 miles on a brand new truck. Toyota tells my I have to pay $440 to recondition the rotors. In all my years and many cars and trucks I’ve never had a warped rotor. I don’t ride the brakes and don’t tow anything with this truck. I am baffled at this situation. The service manager said he’s seeing several 2025 Tundras with low mileage rotor warping so this seems to be a design defect. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | “I own a 2025 Toyota Tundra Platinum. The brake lights do not activate until the brake pedal is nearly halfway depressed. This is a safety defect because drivers behind me are not warned when I’m slowing or braking early. My dealership said ‘that’s the way it is’, but I believe this violates safety standards and puts me at risk. I want this documented and escalated for inspection and repair.” | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | There is an interment issue where the vehicle fails to accelerate from a stop when accelerator is applied. This issue is present in my current vehicle and my previous 2023 tundra. I have brought up concerns to the dealer and manufacturer and am told every time that the concern cannot be duplicated, but I feel that it is going to lead to a crash not only for me but other owners | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The HVAC climate control system in my 2025 Toyota Tundra Limited malfunctioned while the vehicle was idling. The air conditioning had been set to cool and was operating normally, but without any touch to the controls or any alert, the system switched from blowing cold air to blowing warm/hot air. This caused the cabin temperature to increase rapidly. Because there were no warning lights, notifications, or error messages, there was no indication that the air system had changed. The vehicle continued to show that A/C was on and functioning. The malfunction resulted in the cabin reaching a dangerously high temperature. This caused fatal heat injury to one animal and critical heat injury to another, both of which were inside the vehicle at the time. One is still undergoing medical treatment. This same type of HVAC issue has been reported by other 2024–2025 Toyota Tundra owners in multiple owner discussion groups, particularly related to the vehicle blowing warm air at idle or failing to maintain cabin temperature. This suggests a potential widespread defect, whether software-related or involving the A/C compressor control system. This presents a serious safety risk, especially for: Children Animals Disabled or elderly passengers Anyone unable to immediately exit the vehicle The vehicle remains in our possession and can be inspected. Service interactions with the Toyota dealership are documented and available. Immediate investigation is needed to determine the cause of this HVAC failure and whether a recall or TSB must be issued to prevent future injury or death. | Crash: No Fire: No Medical attention | Unknown |
