While traveling at highway speed, with no warning my truck lost acceleration power. There were other vehicles in the road, and I had to travel across multiple lanes to get to an exit while the vehicle was continuously slowing down. This put myself and my children at risk due to the sudden loss of power. I was able to exit and turn the engine off, after which, the problem seemed to stop. I took my truck to the dealership where it was purchased to have them check the truck, and they were unable to reproduce the problem. Their inspection only showed them that there were engine misfires. They told me the issue would need to be reproduced or would need to happen to me again before anything could be done about it or before they could get Toyota involved. I did explain that I had the "Reduced Engine Power" and "Brake System Malfunction" warning light that, through my research, have been experienced with other Tundra owners when they had "engine failures."

While driving on the freeway, going about 65 mph and attempting to accelerate, the check engine light starting alarming and came on, and the vehicle engine shut off. I was able to somehow safely navigate the vehicle across multiple lanes of traffic without causing an accident. I lost power steering and any ability to accelerate. After being able to navigate to the side of the freeway, it took multiple times to restart the vehicle, but it did finally restart. During the remainder of the drive the issue did not occur again. I called the dealership where it recently was having recalls performed to have them look into the cause of this. They were able to tell me that the engine "stalled" but they had no resolution or desire to further investigate this matter. This is extremely disturbing to me as I am very lucky that this did not cause a major accident. I am currently pregnant with my second child and my son is [XXX] old. It is very scary to think that I could potentially be seriously harmed with my children in the vehicle if this even were to happen again.

- For the brakes, one month after the purchase date (November 2022), the brakes make a loud screech and to this date (17 May 2024), they still screech. I have took it into the dealer to report it and they still don't have a remedy. - My engine had something internally brake on Easter Sunday 2024. When I first took it to the dealer on Monday, it took a day or two and they found nothing wrong. I picked it up and noticed a loud tapping noise coming from the engine, I took it back to the dealer, the technician opened up the motor and found metal shavings all over the inside of the motor. I had it replaced within a month and a half later, wow, brand new and this is what happened.

I was in the right lane on the 15 southbound from mesquite heading towards Las Vegas. Got into the passing lane to pass a semi and all power was lost after cutting over. I had to immediately cut over back to the right lane after passing the semi and pull over to the shoulder. This was a very dangerous situation and I have heard of others with the same vehicle going through the same thing. I do have video evidence of the situation as well. I will contact Toyota tomorrow

I have a 2023 Tundra 1794. From a stop there is a noticeable delay sometimes from the time I press the gas pedal to the time the truck actually starts moving. This has caused me to almost get into two serious accidents because the truck would not go.

While driving my new 2023 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro Hybrid, the car alerted of Hybrid System Malfunction, Secondary Collision Brake System Malfunction, Check Engine and Traction Control Turned Off. At this time, the system went in to some sort of Creep mode and wouldn't allow me to accelerate. The truck would barely move over 15 mph. I pulled over and shut the truck off, exited the vehicle, re-entered the vehicle and restarted the truck. The same alerts come back on. After a bit, the truck allowed me to start without the issues. I immediately took the vehicle to Toyota for service. Toyota is claiming it's a fluke, one-time "start sequence issue". I'm worried about this happening to me when I need to accelerate and not being able to accelerate. I searched the internet and others are having this issue. It seems Toyota needs to repair this and that it's a safety issue and able to prevent potential accidents.
