1 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 07/23/2025

Soft pedal when braking goes nearly to floor before engaging. Repairs attempted flushing brakes, new brake fluid and new master cylinder at dealer still not fixed. Toyota wants to replace abs actuator but cannot guarantee it will fix the problem. Many instances of this on Toyota and no solutions. Toyota is ignoring the problem.

Gear shifter hangs up in park, Toyota wanted $1,000. 00 to replace total gear-shifter they said it is a common problem.

3 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 03/05/2017

Toyota Tundra 2015 brake rotors overheated and distorted under normal driving conditions on flat city freeways at 60mph and higher. This resulted in significant vibration of the brake pedal and the steering wheel when applying the brakes. I am 74 yrs old and have experience driving all sorts and brands of pick-up trucks and SUV's and have never every experienced this. The Toyota dealership is claiming this is normal.

4 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 10/31/2016

Installed factory integrated trailer brake controller in 2016. Controller does not supply enough power to the trailer brakes early enough to stop appropriately (trailer pushes the vehicle). Even at maximum power, the only way to lock the trailer brakes is with the manual hand lever. This is noticeable at all times when attempting to stop while towing the trailer.

5 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 05/27/2016

I own a 2015 Tundra crew cab. The family and I love to camp, so we purchased a brand new camper. I hooked up the camper to the Tundra utilizing the 7 pin connector. The dash display indicated the integrated brake control was working and fully functional. To my dismay, the brake control did not work to satisfaction and border lined a safety issue. With the gain turned up to 10 on electric mode, the camper's brakes barely engaged and rarely slowed down my truck. The camper is 7800 pounds. I have been reading forums and other Tundra owners are having the same issues with their ibc. . . . There is not enough braking power with Toyota's factory ibc. Several times going down hill I did not think the electric brakes were going to slow to stop my truck! my Tundra did all the braking. I always had my family in the truck with me. Is there a recent service bulletin or update to this controller???? aftermarket controllers work much better, but I want a clean look to my cab. Thank you.

6 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2016

My intergrated trailer brake controller( part # 89547-0c010) is not functioning properly. It provides braking to my trailer only by using the manual slide. When braking, I feel no braking the trailer.
