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 could lead to an unsafe driving situation, especially in emergency or high-stress driving conditions. I am requesting that this issue be investigated, as it may affect other vehicles with similar all-weather floor mats.

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.

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. My fear is they are waiting for someone to get hurt or killed. My dealer also informed me another customer with a tacoma has been waiting since may 2024 for a transmission.

Apple Carplay does not mute music while playing or replying to a text message. The driver has to turn off the audio system to hear the text message and/or reply. This is not an issue with the Apple device, as it works as intended in other vehicles such as a 2020 Hyundai Kona and a 2024 GMC Sierra where it has been tested. This is a safety concern as it is distracting to the driver to have to intervene in order to use the Carplay functionality as it does not work like it is supposed to. It has been tested in both wireless and wired carplay and the issue persists.

Speedometer/odometer is incorrect and Toyota manufacturing says it cannot be fixed. Toyota sells this vehicle with two different size tires. The smaller is approximately 30.6 inches high and the larger is $32.61 inches high. Toyota manufacturing sets the odometer and speedometer for the larger tire and says that is the only option. That means that the speedometer is off by 4 miles an hour at 6 4 mph and for every 100 miles shown on the odometer, the truck has only traveled 98 miles. It-??s frustrating to recalibrate in your mind. What the speed limit is versus what your truck is actually going, and it also throws off the warranty in Toyota-??s favor.
