What owners report
Owners of the 2017 Tundra most often describe two cluster patterns: headlights and dash lights dropping out when the turn signal is used with the headlight switch in the auto position, and the factory integrated trailer brake controller failing to apply trailer brakes as expected. Fuel-system complaints (hard cold starts, fuel pump and canister issues, fuel odor) and a handful of transmission and rough-brake/vibration reports round out the sample. Many of the lighting and trailer-brake reports come at fairly low mileage, while fuel-system reports tend to arrive later.
- Exterior lighting
Lights cut out when turn signal used (auto mode)
- 17 complaints (22%)
- median 25,500 mi at 3.3 yrs old (12 state mileage)
- filed 2018–2025
With the headlight switch left in the auto position, owners describe the headlights, tail lights and dash/interior lighting going dark or dimming when the turn signal is engaged, most often on a left turn at night. Several say the lights come back after moving the stalk or cycling the switch, and some had a light sensor replaced at the dealer with no lasting change; others were told the fault could not be duplicated. A few also report a turn signal or running light assembly that stopped working, in one case with a melted bulb. Mostly reported between roughly 10,000 and 40,000 miles, often at night and more frequently in cooler weather.
What to check: At night, with the switch in auto, try the left and right turn signals and watch whether the headlights and dash lights flicker or drop out. Ask whether the turn signal/headlight switch assembly has been replaced and whether any dealer visit documented the symptom.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“While driving at night and the lights are on auto, pressing down for the left signal the headlights go out and the dash becomes dim as if I am driving during the day which im not. The vehicle is moving when the lights go out . Please find a resolution because this is dangerous and could cause others to collide with me while on the road.”
NHTSA complaint #11394309, filed 2021-02, 18,000 miles“The headlights and the interior lights turn off when I use the turn signals. This has happened several times since I had the truck, the last time this happened the lights were off for about 5 minutes. The truck is being looked at by the dealership but they can't recreate the issue. This is a safety problem”
NHTSA complaint #11408278, filed 2021-04, 27,000 miles - Brakes
Trailer brake controller not applying trailer brakes
- 13 complaints (17%)
- median 1,000 mi at 0.8 yrs old (9 state mileage, few)
- filed 2017–2025
Owners towing campers and utility trailers describe the factory integrated brake controller giving little or no braking from the trailer when the pedal is pressed, even with gain turned to maximum, while the manual override sometimes works. Complaints mention the controller disappearing from the display, intermittent fault messages, dealers unable to reproduce the problem, and in some cases being told it operates as designed. Several report switching to the electric-over-hydraulic setting as a workaround. Reported from very low mileage (often under 5,000 miles) and on trucks used for towing; some later reports appear at higher mileage.
What to check: If you plan to tow, hook up a trailer with electric brakes before buying and test the controller at several gain settings with the pedal, not just the manual override. Ask whether the dealer has inspected or replaced the controller module.

“On july 8, 2017 we had just purchased a new 2017 Tundra. We tow a 24 ft. Rv trailer and we purchased this vehicle for that reason. One of the features this vehicle has is the integrated brake control system for towing. As we were headed home on state hwy. 42 near coos bay, oregon, I noticed blue smoke coming from the rear of the pickup. I wasn't sure what happened. I stopped as soon as I could and I couldn't locate the cause of the smoke. …”
NHTSA complaint #11005192, filed 2017-07, 15 miles“While towing a camper, I had a trailer brake warning light. I checked the connector and drove on, light came on again. Had minimal brake control on my camper brakes. I went to a dealer in ct, they said they had had 1 issue with one vehicle.. I made an appointment with my purchasing dealer. The master tech could find no problem. Said it was most likely a problem with the ground on my camper. I had towed this camper for 2 years with a 2012 Tundra with no issues. …”
NHTSA complaint #11010396, filed 2017-07, 4,000 miles - Fuel system
Hard cold starts and fuel system faults
- 22 complaints (28%)
- median 24,675 mi at 2.8 yrs old (10 state mileage)
- filed 2018–2026
Owners describe long cranking or repeated start attempts when the engine is cold, in some cases followed by unburned fuel odor or fuel smoke from the exhaust. Others report fuel pump failure, a charcoal canister that failed on the EVAP system, a fuel tank rollover valve stuck shut, fuel odor after parking and a fuel hose damaged under the hood. Some complaints note that recalls exist for other model years but not this one. Spread from low mileage to beyond 60,000 miles; several complaints tie the hard starting to cold weather.
What to check: Start the truck from cold and listen for long cranking; check for fuel smell around the tank and under the hood after parking. Ask for service records showing any fuel pump, canister or EVAP work.

“I believe my Tundra has an emissions problem that Toyota will not cover. The FUEL TANK ROLL OVER VALVE is stuck. I believe this is a hazards condition. Toyota say the fuel tank will have to be replaced and not under warranty. Truck was purchased new by me and has 38887 miles.”
NHTSA complaint #11464017, filed 2022-05“I purchased a CPO 2017 Tundra SR5 Double Cab. Within a month of ownership, the EVAP system failed due to a faulty charcoal canister. Truck didn't even have 60,000 miles on it. This was covered under warranty, but the local Toyota Dealer, tried to make me pay for it anyway.”
NHTSA complaint #11435755, filed 2021-10 - Transmission and drivetrain
Rough shifting and transmission faults
- 6 complaints (8%)
- median 16,000 mi at 3.2 yrs old (3 state mileage, few)
- filed 2018–2025
Complaints describe harsh downshifts and upshifts on slight grades, delayed engagement when shifted into drive followed by a hard slam into gear, and random sticking in fourth gear. One report describes an unexpected downshift while driving at highway speed after the wiper stalk was moved, and another describes a solenoid fault where the dealer replaced the whole transmission rather than the solenoid. Owners say dealers reset the transmission or checked fluid without resolving it. Mostly reported between roughly 4,000 and 90,000 miles, including on trucks still near new.
What to check: Test drive at low speed on a slight incline and feel for abrupt downshifts or a clunk going into drive. Ask whether any transmission codes have been read and whether a relearn or software update was performed.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“This happened 4 times today the vehicle would stay at 1000 RPM while driving with no acceleration possible, it was as if the gas pedal was disconnected, tried to cross busy intersection , but could only coast threw. Also no warning codes available. Later the vehicle would not shift or accelerate it was going 40 MPH at 2000 RPM . The truck has 34500 miles on it. Toyota says no issues of this kind reported and I'm one month out of warranty. …”
NHTSA complaint #11350952, filed 2020-08, 34,500 miles“I bought this 2017 Tundra dlb cab brand new and have had to shop several times about transmission down shifting and then up- shifting on slight inclines, not engaging when put in drive then slamming into gear . 1rst time they checked fluid and said all ok ,2nd time checked fluid again and was told transmission needs to be warmed up before driving , 3rd time they said they did a factory reset on transmission saying somehow out of sync / check fluid = this made it do it at different speed . …”
NHTSA complaint #11090487, filed 2018-04, 4,373 miles - Brakes
Brake vibration and roughness at highway speed
Mentioned in 4 of 60 sampled complaints
Owners describe vibration felt through the steering wheel and brake pedal under braking or at highway speed, with one complaint noting the dealer and manufacturer called the vibration normal. Another report describes the truck not stopping when the pedal was pressed at very low speed. Complaints also describe brake noise such as a groan or squeak in various conditions. Reported from very low mileage, often within the first few hundred to a few thousand miles.
What to check: Drive at highway speed and brake lightly and moderately to feel for vibration or pulsation through the wheel and pedal. Ask whether rotors or pads were resurfaced or replaced and whether any brake noise bulletin was applied.

“While backing out of a parking spot, this vehicle failed to stop when I placed my foot on the brakes causing the vehicle to hit another parked vehicle. When the police office commanded me to remove my vehicle and park it inside a parking spot, the brakes failed to stop the vehicle again, leading to another auto accident.”
NHTSA complaint #10927481, filed 2016-11, 510 miles“When enabling the rear defroster (and side mirror defrost), I heard a loud pop, and noticed smoke under the passenger windshield wiper. The windshield had cracked (presumably from the heat differential), and the wiper started to melt on the windscreen. There appears to be an electrical short directly under the windshield (and under the passenger wiper) that is related to the defroster. This occurred when the vehicle was stationary, and cold (morning startup).”
NHTSA complaint #11351357, filed 2020-08, 25,350 miles
Buying note. Check the lighting behavior with the turn signal in auto mode and test the trailer brake controller with an actual trailer before buying, since those two are the most frequently described problems. Also start the truck cold and drive it through a few light braking and shifting situations, and ask for service records covering the fuel system and transmission.

Example complaints
Electrical system: “Headlights flash or turn off when using the turn signals. Dash lights also dim. Seems to happen when I use the left turn signal. Has happened several times. If I turn the switch to the off position then back they have turned back on.”
NHTSA complaint #11296798, filed 2020-01, 31,000 milesExterior lighting: “When operating the vehicle with the headlight stalk/selector on auto , the dash lights and headlights suddenly go totally black or out. I'm able to turn the lights back on by moving the selector to on . The problem is it happens and sometimes you don't know all of your lights are off when driving, especially in the city with other bright lights. This can be very dangerous. This has happened several times, so I no longer use the auto function on my stalk...too dangerous.”
NHTSA complaint #11326124, filed 2020-05, 23,200 milesFuel system: “Fuel tank is suppose to be 37 gallon. I have never put more than 28.5 gallons in the tank. Even when I run the tank to the red light or my mileage indicator show 20 or less miles remaining. I have ask the dealership twice about this and they claim is a safety feature so you don't run out of fuel. I run the tank down to 10 miles left in tank and that is when I put 28.5 gallons into it.”
NHTSA complaint #11308141, filed 2020-02, 45,000 milesBrakes: “Trailer brake controller does not work and it almost caused a crash. Now it does not even shows up on display as if truck is not even equipped with this module. Extremely scary and dangerous when towing 6000ib behind you and your trailer brakes fail to engage. Internet is bussing with Tundra owners with same issue.”
