THERE IS A LARGE SCREEN IN THE VEHICLE AND THE OEM SENDS MESSAGES TO ME THAT ARE EXTREMELY DISTRACTING AND HAZARDOUS AS THE ONE I RECENTLY RECEIVED WAS RECALL NOTICE TELLING ME THAT THE REAR AXEL COULD FALL OFF THE CAR. I RECEIVED THIS "TEXT" WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 65 MPH AND IT SCARED ME AND GAVE ME A PANIC ATTACK. IT IS ILLEGAL FOR ME AS A DRIVER TO TEXT AND DRIVE YET IT SEEMS PERFECTLY OK FOR THE OEM TO TEXT ME WHILE I AM DRIVING AND FOCES ME TO READ THEIR MESSAGE. THIS IS A FLAGRANT AND COMPLETELY OBVIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. WHY THE ENGINEERS AT TOYOTA WERE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO REALIZ THIS IS A PREVENTABLE SAFETY HAZARD IS SHOCKING! iT IS ALSO SHOCKING AT THE FEDERAL REGULATORS ARE NOT TAKING ACTION WITHOUT PRODDING FROM A CONSUMER. PLEASE FIX THIS SAFETY HAZARD AS IN ADDITION TO THE STUPID TEXT I ALSO RECEIVED A HUGE YELLOW HAZARD SIGN THAT BLOCKED MY VIEW OF MY SPEDOMETER SO THERE ARE TWO HAZARDS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED. I URGE YOU TO DO A RECALL OF THESE ISSUES WITH MY TACOMA TRUCK AND DO NOT ALLOW THE OEM TO COMMUNICATE THESE RECALLS TO ME ON MY VEHICLES SCREENS BUT RATHER CONTACT THE OWNER VIA EMAIL, PHONE CALL AND PUT AN IMMEDIATE STOP TO ALL THE DANGEROUS MESSAGING THE OEM USES. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS MATTER AND I AM CONCERNED A DRIVER LIKE ME COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED WHILE DRIVING.0

Component/system: Rear tires — traction and wet-weather grip performance. Tires are available for inspection upon request. Tire size: 265/70R16 Four BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A 265/70R16 112T all-season tires were purchased new and professionally installed at a retail warehouse tire center in August 2025. The vehicle is a 2022 Toyota Tacoma. Approximately nine months after installation, both rear tires began exhibiting severely degraded traction during heavy rain conditions on paved roads. On at least one occasion, the rear of the vehicle broke loose during a normal turn at low to moderate speed in heavy rain, resulting in a near-loss-of-vehicle-control incident. The front tires, from the same set and installation, did not exhibit the same level of traction loss during the same conditions, suggesting the failure is concentrated in the rear axle tires. Safety risk: The rear tire traction failure created a sudden and unexpected vehicle handling instability on a public road. The near-loss-of-vehicle-control incident posed a direct risk of collision to the driver and other road users. Dealer/service confirmation: The problem has not yet been confirmed by a dealer or service center — a tire center inspection appointment is scheduled. Results will be available following that appointment. Manufacturer/police/insurance inspection: The vehicle and tires have not yet been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. Warning symptoms prior to failure: No warning lamps, messages, or audible warnings appeared prior to or during the traction loss event. The failure occurred without any prior indication of a problem. Tread wear appeared visually normal at the time of the incident. Assessment: The BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A is marketed and sold as an all-season tire suitable for wet road conditions. The tire's performance in heavy rain is inconsistent with that representation and appears to constitute a safety defect. Multiple independent tire testing sou

The contact owns a 2022 Toyota Tacoma. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, another vehicle failed to stop at a red light. Consequently, the other vehicle collided with the vehicle on the passenger's side door and front quarter panel, sending the vehicle careening and nearly tipping over before coming to a complete stop. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who submitted a request to the manufacturer to have an engineer inspect the vehicle. The engineer reviewed the incident recorder and informed the contact that the air bags did not deploy because the occupancy sensor did not detect a passenger. The contact disputed the findings, stating that her son was occupying the passenger seat and had been wearing a seat belt at the time of the collision. A police report was filed, and injuries were reported. The contact was transported to an area hospital by EMT and treated for back pain. She later followed up with her primary care physician and neurosurgeon who located a tear just below where a previous surgery was performed stating that the tear was not present as of her most recent evaluation before the accident. The contact stated that she previously had back surgery to repair and/or remove discs L3, L4, and L5. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The contact was later informed by the manufacturer that there was no data from the incident recorder on the date of the collision. The failure mileage was 24,000.

Known manufacturing defect which results in paint flaking off and exposing bare metal to the body. This will eventually result in corrosion and structurally compromise the safety of occupants inside the cabin. This is a known defect which the manufacturer has set an arbitrary cut-off for production date despite the issue ongoing beyond the limit of their recall dates.

My 2022-Toyota Tacoma has a paint peeling issue that is known to Toyota. My particular model was manufactured in Mexico with a paint code of 040. I have paint peeling in my engine compartment and on several fenders. Toyota has indicated on several websites that this has been an ongoing issue with models between 2016-2022. I took my vehicle to the ELK Grove, CA Toyota Dealership. The Service Manager said this has been an ongoing issue with my particular white (040) paint color. The Service Manager took several pictures. They instructed me to take my vehicle to their dealership collision center. I went to that facility, more pictures were taken and after setting me up for a repair paint job they instructed me that my VIN was not apart of their Customer Care program? I strongly feel that Toyota is now treating me unfairly and that my 2022-Tacoma should be repaired accordingly.
