Owner-Reported Issues (20 of 394)
Power Train →4 issues
Your truck's transmission has a delay when accelerating from a rolling start or shortly after stopping—it takes 1-2 seconds to respond to the gas pedal, occurring 2-3 times per week. This delay has created unsafe situations at intersections where you need quick acceleration to merge into traffic. Multiple software updates and service visits have not resolved the issue, making the truck's acceleration response unpredictable.

Your truck hesitates and doesn't respond when you press the accelerator, especially while turning at intersections. After 1-3 seconds of no response, it suddenly surges forward—a dangerous situation if other vehicles are nearby. This happens almost daily regardless of engine temperature or driving mode, though it cleared up temporarily after a computer reset during service.

Your truck hesitates or lags when you press the accelerator from a complete stop at traffic lights or stop signs, making it feel slow to respond. This delayed acceleration has put you in near-miss situations with other vehicles. The issue likely involves the fuel or ignition system not delivering power smoothly when you first press the gas pedal.

Engine →4 issues
Your engine suddenly shut off while you were driving on the highway at full speed with no warning lights or messages beforehand. The hybrid system temporarily kept the vehicle moving, allowing you to safely pull off the road, but the engine wouldn't restart for about 20 minutes. After the waiting period, the engine restarted and has run normally since, even after 10,000 more miles of driving, though the cause was never identified. A repair would likely involve a full diagnostic scan to identify any engine control module issues, fuel system problems, or electrical faults that may have caused the shutdown.

Your engine has failed completely — this is the second engine failure you've experienced. Toyota issued a recall stating you need a replacement engine, but they haven't approved providing you with a new one yet. You'll need to work with Toyota to get them to authorize and install a replacement engine under the recall.

Unknown Or Other →2 issues
Your reverse indicator light and backup camera started flashing while driving, and after shifting between gears the flashing continued. While accelerating to about 40 mph, you heard a loud bang and your rear wheels locked up, causing the truck to slide sideways—you narrowly avoided hitting other vehicles before the wheels started spinning normally again. The dealer ran diagnostics and found multiple error codes across various vehicle modules but cleared them without making any repairs or identifying the root cause, leaving you concerned about whether this electrical or brake system failure could happen again.

After coming to a complete stop, your truck hesitated to move forward when you pressed the accelerator. The engine continued running normally without stalling, but the truck delayed 10-20 seconds before engaging and moving, feeling hesitant even then. This delay in power delivery is not normal behavior. The issue may involve the transmission, torque converter, or fuel delivery system and should be diagnosed by a technician.

Electrical System,fuel/propulsion System →1 issue
Your fuel gauge may unexpectedly reset and show a full tank even though you haven't added any fuel, typically when you're around 380 miles from empty. This can happen repeatedly and could leave you stranded if you rely on the gauge to know when to refuel. The issue appears to stem from a faulty fuel sensor that needs to be diagnosed and replaced.

Seats →1 issue
Your rear seat back started melting and smoking while your truck was parked, even though the outside temperature was only 64°F. You suspect sunlight reflecting through a bedroom window may have concentrated heat on the seat material, though you're unsure how standard window glass could cause this. The seat material appeared close to catching fire. Fixing this would likely involve inspecting the seat for heat damage and potentially replacing the affected seat back material or padding.

Steering,suspension →1 issue
Your 2022 Tundra has an incorrect front-end alignment from the factory that's covered under Toyota service campaign 24TD01. Your dealer didn't complete this alignment service before you bought the vehicle, and Toyota is now refusing to fix it because they claim the campaign has expired. This misalignment is causing your tires to wear unevenly in a way that affects safety. Getting this fixed will likely require a professional front-end alignment adjustment at a Toyota dealer.

Exterior Lighting,back Over Prevention →1 issue
Your 2022 Tundra has moisture building up inside the taillight housings, which is preventing the backup camera from displaying properly when you shift into reverse. You're also seeing six warning lights on your dashboard. Your dealer has identified this as part of a manufacturer recall (NHTSA Campaign 25V322000) but cannot complete the repair yet because Toyota hasn't released the replacement parts.

Structure →1 issue
Your rear bumper detached while your truck was parked. Even though your truck was involved in a previous recall related to this issue, the dealer initially couldn't repair it due to parts being on backorder. After another dealer eventually replaced the bumper, the same problem happened again shortly after. The dealer has not been able to repair it a second time.
