2024 Toyota Tacoma owner complaints

Stopping at a stop light, after coming to a complete stop, vehicle will want to slowly creep forward and you need to press a little harder on the brake pedal. If you don't pay attention, you will creep into the vehicle in front of you. I am in the transmission TSB range.

My 2024 Tacoma SR5 was stuttering and felt like the wheels are locking up when I accelerate I have to go very slow because when going anything over 30 MPH feels very unsafe and is hard to control and handle it shut off a lot of my systems like crash detection and 2-3 other ones are cut off on my dash it threw a check engine light so going to take it in to Toyota tomorrow to get it looked at I don’t know if I even want this truck anymore.

I bought the truck at 6 pm on [XXX] in Pennsylvania and drove straight home in Brooklyn, when trying to find a parking spot the truck started to act weird(10pm after 190 miles). The rpm was going really high with no power to the wheels and abruptly it seems to find gear and jumped off really fast a couple of times. I was driving in a residential area at low speed and was able to pull over to the curb. I could have hit a pedestrian, another car or lost control pretty badly if I was in a highway. After the initial incident all the lights came off (engine malfunction, brakes malfunction, collision system malfunction and others). The truck was towed and after a long wait, today the 5th of December, it was diagnosed as a transmission problem, Toyota is going order a new transmission and the bro

My new 2024 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro with 2440 miles experienced a transmission failure as I was driving up a mountain highway. I lost most propulsion of the vehicle with no advanced notice. I barely was able to make it to a portion of the road with a shoulder. There was heavy traffic due to the thanksgiving holiday traffic. The error on the Vehicle indicated Hybrid System Failure. In the vehicle information I was able to access additional errors, “A malfunctions in the intelligent Clearance Sonar System has been detected”, and “A malfunction in the Drive Start Control System has been detected”. The vehicle was towed to a local Toyota dealer and the have diagnose that the transmission and a computer need to be replaced. The problem arose suddenly without warning and with out any prior iss

When I was driving my new truck the transmission failed. It would not change gears forward or reverse. The RMP started ramping up in the red. Check engine light on drive start control malfunction. Advanced ultrasonic detecting and ranging system. The led screen was going hoops asking for code and updating while driving day before transmission went. Called dealer. Had the car towed. Later that day was told bye dealer the transmission needs to be replaced. Did research to find out Toyota new theses transmission are faulty and have not recalled. If I where on highway or similar roads I drive daily I would have been hurt. This problem will cause a accident. I am aware the NHTSA has been informed, reached out to Toyota and Toyota has not responded nor have they started a safety recall. M

When starting from a stop on at a stop light on a steep hill, the truck did not accelerate and started rolling backward almost hitting multiple vehicles. I was able to get it stopped but had to wait to get help to move it off the road before being able to get it moving forward again.

I am reporting a safety concern related to my Toyota vehicle involving the all-weather floor mat on the driver’s side. I have noticed that the mat consistently becomes caught on top of the clutch pedal when I press the pedal all the way down. This causes the mat to obstruct the pedal’s full range of motion, making it difficult to fully disengage the clutch. As a result, I have to be extremely cautious and pull over to manually adjust the mat whenever this happens, as it poses a potential safety hazard while driving. I have recorded a video showing this issue occurring, but the file size is too large to submit through the NHTSA portal. As an alternative, I have taken a screenshot from the video that clearly shows the mat interfering with the clutch pedal. I am concerned that this issue cou

I was traveling home from work. Upon leaving work the backup camera on my truck worked as expected. Once I arrived home the back up camera and all other camera would not appear on the screen and the screen was blank. I attempted to put the truck from drive to reverse several times and the back up camera would not appear. I attempted to use the "view" button located on the console and the cameras would not appear. I then resulted in parking the truck, turning the truck off, starting the truck, and then testing which this time the cameras did work. Things of interest that may play a role. I did use android auto for the journey. I did also check that the built-in system appeared on the screen after disconnecting my phone. I do have a video of the experience if there is a way to upload tha

The driver's seat will not consistently hold the height, it will drop to the lowest height level on it's own

The A/C compressor has a chirp when the compressor is cycled on in the mornings it's done this since the day I drove it home from the dealership.

The air blows hard out of the vents when it's switched over to cold but when you move it over to heat it blows lightly like it's on the lowest fan speed but the fan is blowing on high it sounds like the air flow is being restricted.

The contact owns a 2024 Toyota Tacoma. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the local dealer for recall service related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V058000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). While driving at 15-30 MPH, the vehicle lost braking function and crashed into a tree. After the failure, the low brake and the low brake power message were displayed. The driver had not sustained any injuries. The occupant in the passenger seat sustained spinal injuries and neck irritation; medical attention and surgery were provided. There was no reported fire, police report filed, or air bag deployment. The towing company was contacted, who informed him there was brake fluid on the driver-side rear brake line. The vehicle was towed to his residence. The next day, it was towed to a body shop. T

The contact owns a 2024 Toyota Tacoma. The contact stated that the gas cap failed to close securely and was loose. Additionally, the contact received notifications of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 25V058000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) and 25V595000 (Electrical System); however, the parts to do the recall repairs were not yet available. The contact stated that the instrument panel was blank at start-up. The contact also stated that the infotainment system screen was blank intermittently while driving, which required the driver to pull over to the side of the road to turn off and restart the vehicle. The dealer was contacted several times for the recall repairs, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by voicemail message. The failure mileage was

The vehicle is a 2024 Toyota Tacoma SR5 that was later traded for a 2025 Tacoma SR5 due to a serious safety defect involving the rear brake lines. The problem is the same one described in Toyota’s recall: the rear brake hoses can be damaged by debris, resulting in brake fluid loss and potential brake failure. The safety risk was significant. The vehicle was used to transport a young child, and because the brake lines could fail without warning, the truck could not be safely operated for daily driving. Multiple franchised Toyota dealerships confirmed that they had no remedy parts available for several months and that the repair could not be performed. This left the vehicle without a functional safety repair for an extended period. The manufacturer’s public statements indicated that a fix e

I’m filing this report because the dealership where I purchased and have my vehicle regularly serviced failed to notify us of an active safety recall related to the brake system on our Toyota truck. The dealership is Classic Toyota – located at 2301 W Mercury Blvd, Hampton, VA 23666. The recall was issued in February 2025, yet the vehicle has been serviced by the same Toyota dealer multiple times since then, including an oil change and a state inspection. The dealer never mentioned the open recall or offered to repair it. I bought the truck prior to the recall in July of 2024. We only learned of the recall recently through the Toyota app, not from the dealership. This is unacceptable given that brake recalls pose a serious safety risk. I am requesting an investigation into this deale

1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The multimedia head unit / Apple CarPlay system is malfunctioning. The screen randomly disconnects, goes black, and frequently fails to connect to iPhones. The system displays “Retry,” and at times Apple CarPlay will only reconnect through Bluetooth settings instead of normal wired/wireless operation. Both vehicles are available for inspection upon request. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The failure creates a safety hazard because the screen disconnects or goes black while driving, causing sudden loss of navigation, phone functions, and display information. This forces the driver to look down, attempt to reconnect the phone, or search through Bluetooth menus wh

The multimedia head unit and Apple CarPlay system are malfunctioning. The screen randomly disconnects, goes black, and often fails to connect to iPhones. It shows “Retry,” and sometimes Apple CarPlay will only reconnect through the Bluetooth settings instead of normal wired or wireless CarPlay. Both of my new-generation Tacomas are available for inspection upon request. This issue creates a safety risk because the screen disconnects or goes black while driving, causing loss of navigation, hands-free calling, and vehicle information. This forces me to look down or try reconnecting the phone while the vehicle is in motion, which increases the risk of distraction and a possible accident. I have taken both of my Tacomas to Toyota for inspection, but the dealer was unable to reproduce the pro
