“Front seat belt alarm randomly goes off indicating that the seatbelt is not buckled. This occurs randomly at times 3-5 time a day or days without incident. I feel my safety is at risk because the vehicle does sense that the driver or passenger is buckled. Does this have an impact on other safety features like the airbags deloying? If there are no direct safety impacts, there is also the impact of it distracting the driver and causing an accident. The problem is so random that the dealer has not reproduced it. However, I have video evidence of it occurring and Toyota still does nothing. Inspected only by Toyota during service. No- not regarding specifically this issue but the truck also has numerous other electronic glitches to say.”

“On Saturday, XXX, while driving on [XXX] toward [XXX], our 2024 Toyota Tundra (VIN: [XXX]) lost power and stalled at highway speeds with the warning: "Ignition On / Engine Off – Stop in a safe place." I made an emergency lane change with 6 vehicles trailing closely. After smoke expelled during restart attempts, Toyota Roadside towed the truck to Goldsboro Toyota at 5:15 PM. On Monday,XXX, Goldsboro Toyota exhibited negligent, misleading treatment. A receptionist falsely claimed they "ordered a new engine" for the recall and refused to release the truck to Midlands Toyota near our home in [XXX]. Despite written instructions on the intake form, we waited 7 hours with no update. On Friday, XXX, Toyota Corporate contradicted the dealer, confirming no technical remedy or engine currently exists for active federal Safety Recall 25TA14 (NHTSA [XXX]). This catastrophic engine failure created an extreme safety hazard that severely triggered my wife’s diagnosed ADHD and depression (Eggshell Plaintiff Doctrine). The dealer’s refusal to release our truck also disrupted my work during a critical corporate shareholder transition. Under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act…”

“Awaiting 13 months for safety remedy for NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 25V322. NO INFORMATION FROM MANUFACTURER NOR CAR DEALER. NO ONE HAS ANY INFORMATION REGARDING TIMETABLE FOR SAFETY REPAIRS.”

“I am the owner of a 2024 Toyota Tundra. My vehicle is subject to open NHTSA Recall No. 25V-332, for which I received notification. It has now been over a year since this recall was issued, and no remedy has been made available to me. I have contacted my Toyota dealership and was told the remedy parts are not yet available' or 'no timeline could be provided. This unresolved recall leaves my vehicle in a condition that Toyota itself has identified as an unreasonable safety risk. The prolonged delay in providing a free remedy, as required under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, is my basis for this complaint. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate Toyota's compliance with recall remedy timelines and follow up on the status of parts/software availability for this recall.”
