The passenger door handle was recently replaced. Inside door handle assembly broke and the passenger was unable to open the door from the inside. Now the driver door handle assembly just broke and I was unable to open the door from the inside. The inability to exit the vehicle from the inside should be a safety recall. Various online forums mention similar issues from other owners. Concern was raised with Toyota but not actions was taken.
According to Toyota, the 2022-2026 Tundra is compatible with 35x11. 5 tires. These tires were installed by the dealer before my purchase. However, during turns, the tires heavily rub against the sway bar. This issue may be specific to the trd upgrade package, which includes an upgraded, thicker sway bar. After driving for just 500 miles, noticeable rub marks have developed on both sides of the sway bar and visible marks on the inside of the tire. Tire rubbing can lead to faster tire wear and may even cause the tire to break during operation if the damage continues over time. I have reported this to Toyota customer service and all they say they do is file a report.
