Example complaints
Other or unknown: “Sunroof spontaneously shattered while driving the vehicle. Sounded exactly like a gunshot. Luckily I remained calm while driving and heart racing. It was 9:20 at night and no other cars around. I am absolutely certain that nothing hit or touched my car.”
NHTSA complaint #11721479, filed 2026-03Body and structure: “Upon purchasing my 2023 Toyota Sequoia, I noticed that the rear hitch cover had a tendency to come loose while driving and eventually fall off. I promptly addressed this issue with the dealership, and they replaced it with a new one. However, the problem persisted, and the replacement cover also failed after just a few days. This occurred when the vehicle had been driven for approximately 2,000 miles. The hitch cover continues to fall off.”
NHTSA complaint #11605406, filed 2024-07Transmission and drivetrain: “I am creating this complaint because my vehicle has not been included in the NHTSA recall # 25V-767 on the V35A 3.4L twin-turbo V6 in my 2023 Sequioa. My vehicle was produced on the same manufacturing line and likely had the same engine debris. Toyota gives the reason for not including the hybrid because it is not a safety issue as the hybrid motor can provide power if the engine fails. However owners who have encountered this issue in a hybrid tundra or Sequioa has said that power-steering and control systems failed creating a safety issue. …”
NHTSA complaint #11733811, filed 2026-04Brakes: “This is related to Toyota service bulletins T-SB-0043-24 and T-SB-0022-25. My brakes started squealing shortly after I purchased the vehicle. I reported this to my toyota dealership. They told me about the service bulletins, but said the parts are on back order. I have been waiting for almost 2 years, and the dealership still hasn’t fixed it. Now, my brakes are vibrating violently at highway speed, and my family is scared to ride in the vehicle.”
