My truck showed âHybrid Engine Malfunction contact dealerâ upon start up, then âReduced Engine Performance Check Engineâ warnings. I was not warned that I should not drive at all so I took my son to school. As I was driving home up a hill around 35 mph the temperature gauge began to climb fast towards the upper limit. At the upper red limit the car warned âEngine Overheating Stop Immediatelyâ and I pulled over. The engine began smoking as I pulled over. I have an aftermarket Air Intake for the twin turbo and an aftermarket cat-back exhaust system but neither of these parts could have caused dramatic overheating of the main engine and failure of the hybrid system. Events happened…

Subject: Safety Complaint â 2025 Toyota Tundra â Sudden Acceleration Delay â T-SB-0032-26 â Two Near-Accidents. I am the owner of a 2025 Toyota Tundra and am filing this complaint to report a serious safety concern involving delayed acceleration from a stop or near-stop condition. My vehicle has experienced this problem on two separate occasions. When I attempted to accelerate, the truck did not respond as expected, creating a dangerous situation and nearly causing a car accident on both occasions. The delay in acceleration left me unable to move forward as quickly as required by the traffic conditions. I am concerned that this issue could result in a serious collision, injury, or…

Here's your description, about 1,750 characters, so it fits the 2,000 limit: --- My 2025 Toyota Tundra has two intermittent defects that have not been repaired despite multiple visits to Berglund Toyota in [XXX] 1. Driver's door will not unlock. Intermittently, when I press unlock on the key fob, all doors unlock except the driver's door. I have video showing me standing outside the truck with the fob in hand while the driver's door stays locked and the other doors open normally. The dealer disassembled the door and checked the wiring and connections but could not duplicate the problem and found no codes. A Toyota field technician also inspected the truck. No parts have been replaced…

Two issues happening at the same time. âKey not detectedâ and âTPMS System Malfunctionâ. Key not detected: Happens at various times, either at startup or while driving, an error message that says âKey not detected â comes on the dash and a loud beeping. My concern is that I may become stranded somewhere if the system cannot detect the key when trying to start the truck. The issue has been confirmed by both the dealer and Toyota and has not been fixed to date. TPMS System Malfunction: At various times while driving, a warning message is displayed on the dashboard that states there is a malfunction with the tire pressure monitoring system and that it should be checked by the…

Possible issue with the safety of others: My tailgate for my 2025 Tundra crewmax came opened (unknown to me) and contents of my Truck bed dumped onto the road. The incident as it happened. I was backed into a parking spot, truck was off, when I got in my remote was in my pocket and the truck would not start. So I pulled the remote out of my pocket and put it in the console. The truck would then start. I wasnt observant to the dashboard warnings if they were there. While driving home I heard all my bed contents fall out. Fortunatly I noticed it before it affected anyone. The best I can figure is that other objects in my pocket may have pushed the tailgate button. Since I was backed in and…

On 06/02/2026, at approximately 20,000 miles, the driver's front interior door handle on my 2025 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro failed. An internal component connecting the handle to the latch mechanism broke, and the door could not be opened from inside. I was unable to exit the vehicle through the driver's door using the interior handle. I had to lower the window and open the door using the exterior handle to exit the vehicle. The vehicle was repaired under warranty at Loyalty Toyota (Chester, VA), repair order 7245169/1. The dealer initially suggested the failure might be classified as improper use. They later informed me that Toyota considers it a known manufacturing defect, and the handle was…
