Vehicle surges/jumps forward when the gas pedal is barely touched from the stationary/stop position while in drive. I was moving the vehicle about 2ft. This problem caused property damage this morning. This vehicle has had this problem from date of purchase. I reported this to Toyota in 2013. (2nd problem,) this vehicle goes up to 2500 rpms when I turn down the next street which has a slight decline but the speed doesn't increase. This seems to happen in the morning when it is first used. I think this could be a defective computer module for both problems. (3rd) problem the instrument panel can not be read on a sunny day, you don't know how fast you are going or how much fuel you have, etc. The whole panel could be defective. I reported this problem to Toyota in 2013, they did not show any interest in these problem.

On my 2015 Toyota Tundra,the light from the radio display is so bright at night it makes this truck very dangerous to drive. When it rains at night it makes it 10 times more dangerous. This truck needs a dimmer switch for the brightness on the radio for night driving. If you wear glasses like me, the light from this display make a glare. I have two kids, one is 15 months and the other is 3 years. I do not like to go out at night with them in the truck do to this unsafe feature. Something needs to be done about it !!!!.

I have a serious safety concern regarding the lack of daytime vehicle instrument illumination on my new 2016 Toyota Tundra (while driving, stationary and on all roads) during the day. As an elder adult who wears sunglasses to protect their eyes (on the recommendation of the medical profession) the dash board (specifically the speedometer indicator) is barely discernible. Even without sunglasses the instrument panel is very dark. I am sure there are thousands of others who would like to see the instruments and operate their vehicles in a safe and lawful manner during the daytime or with sunglasses on. I am sure the decision, by Toyota, to not illuminate the dash in the daytime saves a few pennies and adds up for the manufacturer when you sell thousands of vehicles? but. . . Not being able to see a dark instrument panel is bound to cause more than a few accidents.

When using the turn signal to indicate turning direction at night, all lights shut off randomly, leaving you with no way to see where you're going. This includes all cabin lights so you can't find the switch to turn the lights back on. This happen regularly. . Read more...

I had recall for my Tundra bed and there were going to resolve the rust issue at no charge. I took my truck to bobby rehal Toyota in mechancisburg PA. They broke a part that wasn't part of the recall. They told me and if I wanted my truck back I had to pay for it. I tried to resolve with bobby rehal and Toyota main office and they told me to pay if I wanted my truck and the part they broke was not part of the recall. I explained I didn't need or want this recall but was told it was a no cost recall by letter. I paid it but now I just received another recall for airbag but how can I take my truck to Toyota not knowing the outcome of the recall so I may choose to do nothing because I cannot be sure they won't make me pay again for something I didn't want/need in the first place. Thanks.

Due to excessive heat from bulbs or material too close to heat source, holes were burned into a lens casing located above sliding glass window to rear of driver.

I got stopped and issued a $187. 00 violation by the police in CA as my truck parking, (amber lights) were on during driving in the daytime. This truck is wired so the amber (parking light lens) are on when the engine is running so to the police it is the same as driving with parking lights on which is illegal under CA vc 24800 and most other states. This makes my vehicle illegal to operate as well as a safety issue because people do not know if the vehicle is moving or not (the very reason for parking lights). No country in the world allows amber parking lens to be used as daylight running lights. This is a safety issue and it also makes me libel to get stopped and ticketed every time I drive this vehicle in the daytime.

I own a 2001 Tundra. I just learned of 4 recalls: nhsta #09e025000, 09v444000, 06e026000, and 06e065000. We received no notification from the companies required to do so. The truck is registered. We purchased the truck new and have been the only owners. We have not changed address since the purchase. I believe the failure to be notified was deliberate to avoid the cost of compliance with the recall. I have been unable to get any of the 4 companies involved to respond to phone messages.

One of my cargo lights in the rear center of the cab burnt out and I went to replace it. When I took the cover off I noticed what looked like plastic on the light bulb that was burnt out. So I took a closer look inside and I noticed above the light bulb that the plastic had melted and it was the same way over the other light bulb. Now there is a hole in the plastic above each light bulb. So after I put the cover back on I made the lights come on by opening the truck door and I felt the cover and it was very hot to the touch. I am thinking this could possible start a fire if the doors remain open to long.

Toyota stated that they were not responsible for the repairs and the contact would be liable. The failure mileage was 102,000 and current mileage was 103,000.

Taillight bulbs fall out of the socket. We returned the vehicle to the dealer a coulple of times and they put the bulbs back in but didn't fix the problme that the sockets don't have enough spring tension to secure them in place. I've since blocked them in place with toothpicks to increase the tension of the sockets. Cheap fix but they should replace the sockets.
