“I purchased 2010 Toyota Fj Cruiser 4x4 automatic. It has part time 4 wheel drive system including 4h and 4l. I set into 4h (high speed 4wheel drive) and tried to park at the open parking lot. I found out car goes slow and stop before fitting into the spot. When steering is not straight, car slowly stops without braking under no accel. After that I tried to make a circle with my car, it did not work. I have to push the gas pedal to make a circle. In 2wd, I don't need to make circle with gas pedal on d drive. …”
NHTSA complaint #10350143, filed 2010-08, 3 miles“Review mirror failing to automatically dim under any lighting, including sun, directly entering through the rear window of the vehicle. This has always been like this, it is just with these new high-intensity lights on the new, 2016-2019, that it has become more of a hazard at night. This occurs on all roadways.”
NHTSA complaint #11204168, filed 2019-04, 140,000 miles“While viewing the undercarriage of the vehicle I noticed excessive frame and structural rust and corrosion on a majority of the frame, suspension, fuel tank straps, and other metal parts of the vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #11378030, filed 2020-12, 116,000 miles“The truck's frame was found to be cracked / rusted through in spots. It was discovered during another attempted repair 8/17/26. Because of the split / crack in the frame, the vehicle is now not drivable as it is deemed not road worthy. This problem is known to Toyota as well as the NHTSA. The Tacomas of the same years, on which this vehicle is built (same frame, same faulty rust-proofing operation from the manufacturer), was identified and Toyota was required to address it. …”
NHTSA complaint #11757740, filed 2026-08“Single Toyota 2010 FJ Cruiser Owner. Over the last 10/11 have been really diligent taking care of my truck, unfortunately due to what seems very poor quality steel or treatment of the frame and some parts when was build by Toyota, it has cause severe rust/rotten issue leading not only to significant safety concerns (broken gas tank straps and fuel lines) but also a significant amount of money spend treating the frame and part to prevent further corrosion that could\will eventually lead to complete failure.”
