Jan 29, my truck went into -??limp-?? mode while traveling on the interstate. I was able to move to the side of the road and safely exit the interstate. Took the truck to Right Toyota where they identified a misfire on cylinder 5. They reset the codes and did nothing to the truck when they took the engine apart. They claimed nothing was wrong. On Feb 22, I started the truck and it was running in idle very rough. I went to put the truck in drive and it wouldn-??t go. The emergency brake was set and wouldn-??t disengage. Took it to Toyota and the code showed cylinder 3 was misfiring. They took the engine apart and found the piston had a score marking. They are replacing the piston as part of the warranty. I am finding posts by other 2024 tundra owners who are having engine problems too. Seems to be an issue but nothing has been recalled yet.

Transmission smells like burning plastic when towing even a small trailer under 5000 pounds. Toyota refuses there is a problem.

Vehicle has major hesitation issues. If I am coming up to a light and it turns green when I am below 5 mph, maybe around 1-2 mph, it will not go. It lags for around 3-5 seconds before it decides to go again. Sometimes from a stop if I am turning left, I try to cross traffic and go, it is very slowly moving even with me pushing the gas and then seconds later it finally goes but almost causing me to get hit! I now have to make sure there are large openings because I don't trust the truck and the dealer won't fix it.

A huge lag before the engine decides to get up and go. It-??s dangerous

The truck has a hesitation when accelerating from a stop or after coming to a stop and then accelerating again it has a hesitation or lag before powertrain responds making it a hazard when on coming traffic is approaching.

Truck hesitates when acceleration from a dead stop, brakes has squealed since new 1) when pulling out in traffic, truck randomly hesitates and then jerks to go, very concerning and unknown if i will pull into traffic and the truck wont go 2) brakes have squealed since it had 3k miles, very concerning that they will not stop the truck in an emergency

I upgraded from my 2017 Tacoma to a 2024 Tundra because of a growing family and the as advertised 2024 listed the same (if not better) fuel economy than my Tacoma. I am the truck says 17 city-22 highway mpg, I've not seen anything remotely close to that. Im currently getting 14 city 16.5 highway. I understand there are outside factors that could be at play, however I'm not even getting the city mpg on long trips. Having paid roughly $65k for this truck I think it should deliver as advertised. I've expressed my concern with my local dealership and was instructed to manually calculate the mpg to make sure the truck was showing the correct mpg. I can assure you that the mpg the truck is displaying is, unfortunately, correct. I've also filed a complaint with Toyota corporate and they pushed it back to my local dealership. No kne is taking accountability for this false advertisement. Frankly, I'm disappointed Toyota can continue to sell vehicles with fakse information. This reminds me of the VW diesel debacle years ago when VW finally got exposed for wrongdoing. I know many others have expressed this same concern. I hope NHTSA takes this matter seriously and forces Toyota to make this right somehow.

Engine failure. Metal shavings found in oil.

From the start, I would say after a few months of having my vehicle I had EBS issues and after that I had my vehicle shut down while I was driving and go into limp mode at it said engine reduce power or reduce engine power and it has done that four times This last time it said reduce engine power and all mercy breaking systems failed. There was a knocking in the engine, like there was no oil in it and all collision malfunction sensors breaking systems everything malfunction and vehicle shut off and engine was rattling took to Toyota and they told me that it was a manufacturing issue, but there was no recall my vehicle never even said I was low on oil even though I just had an oil change. It never gave me any alerts. It would just randomly lose power to the engine and shut down but this last time it was really bad.

After coming to a stop there is an acceleration hesitation that cause the truck to take a second or two to start going again. This is very dangerous when pulling out in traffic
- Fort Smith, AR, USA
Accelerating from a stop sign when the vehicle stalled and hesitated to go for approximately 2 seconds. The vehicle eventually accelerated with no issues afterwards. Cross traffic was nearby and had to slow down so my vehicle could clear the highway.

The safety issue I have is that my truck will display hesitation in moving forward or accelerating. I have been in a few intersections trying to turn left and when pressing on the gas pedal there is a delay in responding to the gas pedal being pushed. I-??ve discussed this with the dealer and was informed that this is normal behavior. The dead pedal has me very concerned for my safety and the safety of others while driving my truck.

Car has extreme random hesitation when attempting to accelerate. Could lead to major accident.
- Orange Park, FL, USA
Gas pedal intermittently goes completely NON-responsive. Vehicle will not accelerate when this issue occurs. Pulling out into traffic is very dangerous when this issue happens. No errors are reported from the vehicle but the gas pedal is completely dead during the issue.
- Meridian, ID, USA
Engine failed at highway speeds resulting in loss of power. Dealer found debris from manufacturing process in engine that caused a bearing failure. Vehicle only has 7,500 miles on it at time of failure.
- Jarrettsville, MD, USA
The vehicle intermediately has poor throttle response resulting in unsafe driving conditions. The poor throttle response occurs when taking off from a start as well as when accelerating at highway speeds. I nearly got into an accident today changing lanes on a highway as a vehicle was approaching at a rapid speed. The truck failed to accelerate for 3-5 seconds which is unacceptable. When I applied throttle the truck actually slowed down. This condition is sporadic which makes it more dangerous.
- Chesapeake, VA, USA
Engine seems to stall at acceleration from low speed. Basically, a dead pedal response. For instance, upon slowing down to near stop to enter a roundabout or an unmarked 4 way intersection(yield to enter intersection without stopping) vehicle has noticed throttle lag. Any attempt to accelerate even mildly into the roundabout or intersection results in a dead pedal for a second or two. No response from engine, truck feels like it-??s going to die. I-??ve been nearly hit multiple times by other vehicles as my vehicle is not moving when it should. Very dangerous. This is a daily occurrence. Dealer was unhelpful.
