Issue: Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Toyota Venza, 2023-2025 RAV4 Prime, RAV4, Highlander, GR Corolla, Crown, 2024-2025 Lexus TX, LS, Toyota Tacoma, Grand Highlander, and 2025 Lexus RX, Toyota Crown Signia, Camry, RAV 4 Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV), and 4 Runner vehicles. Due to an error in the instrument panel software at vehicle startup, the instrument panel may fail to display vehicle speed, brake system, and tire pressure warning lights.
Risk: An instrument panel display that does not show critical information can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Remedy: Dealers will update the instrument panel software over-the-air (OTA) for non-PHEV vehicles, free of charge. For PHEV vehicles, dealers will inspect the instrument panel assembly, and either replace it, or update the software, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed December 5, 2025.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I purchased four tires from Belle Tires on April 1, 2026, 14 days ago (note: mileage at accident 10,776 vs mileage at tire purchase 10,360 or 416 miles of wear). On Wednesday, April 15th, I was about to change lanes after entering the Tri-State Expressway (route 294) going southbound from Half-Day Rd. (route 22), I had crossed the first two lanes without incident, and moving into the third lane, when I experienced a blowout of my driver’s-side rear tire. The car started a fishtail counter-clockwise spin and crossed the third and the fourth lanes (i.e., the far left lanes) before smashing into the concrete median, separating my Southbound lanes from the opposing traffic lanes. I have kept both the tire and rim in my garage. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? As I started sliding or spinning, I cannot honestly say, whether or not I hit the brakes or can really describe the spinning that occurred. As the rim of blowout tire was evenly torn up on its outer edge, I know that the tire was turning. All I can recall is hearing the car hit the concrete median twice. I know that it had to be counterclockwise since I started going southbound, and after the car came to a rest next to the median, I was facing southbound again. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I took the tire on it’s rim to the Belle dealer who would not acknowledge a blowout, but he kept insisting that he is not an expert on crash interpretations. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Allstate Insurance, Toyota used a Bosch representative to retrieve the Electronic Data Recording (EDR) information. I have copy of this report available for expert interpretation. No warnings were given prior to this blowout.
I heard loud sound then the tire of driver’s side front was blown out suddenly with warning alarm on the 210 east bound freeway on 10th of May, 2026 at 1:40PM, I stopped in the shoulder then called AAARoad service to change it to the spare tire. The service technician said that the tire has defect and blown out. I visited Toyota Pasadena to change the tire, the service representative suggested to claim the defect to Bridgestone personally because my mileage of car was only 33,416 and I have still warranty of this tire. I reported to Bridgestone but they didn’t do anything to follow up. Tire size is 225/55R29

Last year my vehicle rear camera and sensor failed to which caused me to backup into a mailbox. I had brought it up after a car wash at the dealership and they said they didn't know about any recalls at the time. I recently saw the recall for this year and make and would like this to be investigated further. I also have an estimate for the damages that I can provide.
After applying the brakes in a sudden situation, the automatic emergency braking came on but the car didn't stop. The brake pedal was pushed all the way to the floor board but the car didn't stop and crashed into the vehicle in front. This happened once before but didn't end in a crash. This was a total brake failure.
-Issue with electrical system. Unable to access to connect services (APP, SOS). Contacted Toyota three times to let them know about this issue. -Collision Warning/Rear Cross Warning don't always operate. There is no sound or warning. -Occasionally, screen turns off completely when driving. -Navigation system is always confused and doesn't give proper directions. -Carplay not able to connect to phone sometimes. - -
When driving at night using low beams a shadow is cast by the headlights. The shadow is on the driver's side approximately 100 feet in front of the vehicle, at the 11:00 position. This gives the impression that someone or something is entering the path of the vehicle causing the driver to brake or swerve to avoid a collision. This endangers the occupants of the vehicle and others on the roadway. If the driver grows accustomed to this and "learns" not to pay attention to this area of his/her path it endangers those who enter this area.
The other day when I was backing out of a parking spot my car almost backed into 2 people. There was no alert from the rear cross traffic warning.
I don’t have the specific date that this happened because it was several times. When I first got the car the Toyota app stopped working after a few days. I brought it back a couple times and they replaced the headpiece because the app system crashed. Then the CarPlay stopped working not long after the head piece was replaced and the app stopped working. After going to the dealership for eight or nine times they finally ordered me a DCM. While waiting for that part, the auto start via key fog was not heating up the car. So with presetting the defrost to be on for auto start, the hazards came on when I auto started it. I happened to have had it at the service department when it happened and the mechanic said he didn’t know how to shut it off so he had to disconnect the battery. While I was speaking with Toyota about it on the phone, they asked me to try it out to see if the problem was gone and it wasn’t and I couldn’t shut the hazards off. So I drove with the hazards on and eventually the hazards turned off, but the CarPlay screen completely shut off when the hazards turned off. Also, when the hazards were on the car didn’t shut off when I opened the door. Also, another incident was that there was an acceleration issue when going to accelerate from a stopped position at a light. When I pressed on the gas the car started to move and then it went to a complete stop as if I was pushing on the break, but I wasn’t on the break. I was on the gas. I even looked down to see that my foot was on the gas. After pumping the gas pedal, it finally started to go. All of the above issues so far seem to be resolved after replacing the DCM. Like I said there’s too many incidences above for me to give a date to which all of this happened but it’s within the last few months I got this car in August.
Acceleration or throttle lag. When stopped at a turn, went to press on gas and no acceleration happened. 3-5 seconds later the car accelerated when I pressed on the gas.
During the commute on the way home on [XXX] between Harrisburg and Lebanon PA a stone kicked up in a construction zone and impacted the driver side windshield. At that time there was no visible damage until later in the drive there was a 3in long crack in the driver side line of sight. As the drive continued the crack continued across the line of sight. Over the course of 2 days the crack went from 3inches to halfway across the windshield. The stone crack was no bigger than a size of an eraser on a pencil. I believe this needs investigated just like the 2021 model's with defective windshields. Toyota care (ref [XXX]) was called, they declined my incident. My purchased extended warranty for chips, cracks, dents was also denied because its bigger than 3inches. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
