Vehicle Information: 2023 Toyota Tundra Limited TRD Off-Road (Equipped with Factory Tires) [1] Current Mileage: Approximately 26,000 miles Description of Safety Defect: The factory-installed tires on this vehicle are exhibiting premature, severe tire dry rot (sidewall/tread cracking) and highly accelerated, uneven tread wear at only 26,000 miles. The depth of the rot and the erratic wear pattern present an immediate structural hazard, significantly increasing the risk of a sudden tread separation, sidewall blowout, or catastrophic tire failure at highway speeds. Despite proper vehicle maintenance, alignment checks, and routine tire rotations, the rubber compound has degraded at an unacceptable and unsafe rate for a low-mileage, modern vehicle. This premature deterioration compromises wet-weather traction, braking efficiency, and overall vehicle handling. The severe degradation of these original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tires constitutes a clear manufacturing defect that poses an ongoing safety risk to the driver, passengers, and other motorists on the road.

Recall # 25V767 has been open since November 6, 2025 and the remedy is not yet available. There is a possibility that certain machining debris may not have been cleared from the engine when it was produced which can lead to potential engine knocking, engine rough running, engine no start, and/or a loss of motive power. I am concerned about this being a major safety issue and also concerned about the fact that the recall has been open since November 2025 and there is still no remedy.

Multiple vehicle systems have malfunctioned, including the transmission, infotainment/display screen, and backup camera. Most recently, the backup camera has stopped functioning, preventing a rear view while reversing. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request, along with any service records documenting prior repair attempts.The transmission issues created an unsafe driving condition due to unpredictable shifting and hesitation. In addition, the backup camera is no longer functioning, significantly reducing rear visibility while reversing and increasing the risk of striking a pedestrian, child, vehicle, or object. These defects pose a safety risk to both the driver and others around the vehicle.The vehicle has been presented to an authorized Toyota dealership on multiple occasions for repair of various issues. Most recently, I sought service for the inoperative backup camera but was refused service. Previous concerns have been documented through dealership service visits.The vehicle has been inspected by an authorized Toyota dealership during previous repair attempts. It has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives.The vehicle experienced ongoing drivability and infotainment issues before the backup camera failed. The backup camera eventually stopped functioning entirely.

Engine seized up just after completing a pass on 2 lane road with oncoming traffic approaching Truck started shaking, warning lights illuminated and I lost all ability to accelerate. I was only able to crest a slight incline and safely get to the shoulder of the road due to momentum gained during passing. Toyota states hybrid models have locomotive ability after engine seizing, this is clearly not true. Had the seizing occurred while passing, it would have likely resulted in a head on collision. Dealer inspection confirmed engine seizing and noted metal shavings were observed on the dipstick.

Forward facing Camera's: After vehicle was recalled for a refacing camera issue and repaired for that recall, now the forward facing camera does not work properly. When coming to stop or while stopped the forward facing camera's no longer work. They only come on when I get close to something. They also no longer read speed limit signs. When stopped at a cross walk if a child runs in front of the vehicle I do not get a warning until the child is directly in front of the vehicle. This could cause me to hit a child based on the height of the child and being blocked by the hood of the vehicle. I need the forward camera's to activate at 5 miles per hour or slower and stay on when stopped until going over 5 miles per hour like they did before the backup camara recall was installed on my truck. This is an on going issue starting June 18,2026. I took it to the dealership July 14,2026 and they did not correct the issue. This issue could case a child to be run over!
