What 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser Hybrid owners say

Brakes

The contact owns a 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser. The contact stated that while in reverse(R) and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle made an abnormal loud sound. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to diagnose the vehicle. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and a case was filed. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to file a safety complaint. The failure mileage was 21,000.

2025 Land Cruiser bought 7 months ago constant rattling and tapping noise near passenger rear near pillar B and C. Brought to the dealer for corrective action to identify, address and to resolve the problem due to annoying ticking, rattling and tapping noise while travelling on a rough road. According to a service adviser their mechanics from dealer dismantled panels and head liners to pinpoint noise and find out that, the noises is located near pillar C and pillar B. As recommendation by the service adviser the Land Cruiser needed to be bring to a car body shop to reweld parts from both pilar B and C that was creating the rattling noise. I believe the 2025 Land Cruiser have a manufacturer welding defects that creating the rattling and tapping noise which is needed to be thoroughly investigated. …

Transmission & drivetrain

On this vehicle, whenever 4 Low is selected, or in 4 High (normal driving mode) any off-road driving mode is chosen, a warning appears on the digital instrument cluster stating "VSC Turned OFF Pre-Collision Brake System Unavailable". While this warning is up, no other instrument cluster functions can be accessed. Hitting the button to dismiss this warning will only make it go away for five seconds, then it will repeat and once again draw the driver's attention off the road and to the instrument cluster. It serves as a constant distraction and impediment in the most difficult driving conditions. The only way to make it not reappear every 5 seconds is to stop, go into the safety items menus, and disable pre-collision braking which then unnecessarily reduces the safety of the vehicle once it is back in a normal driving mode. …

The Land Cruiser suddenly became sluggish and stopped itself with no input to the accelerator or brakes upon pulling into a parking spot. A center differential lock indicator with a flashing red lock was on the dashboard. Driver attempts of stopping and restarting vehicle and pushing the center differential lock control button did nothing. Vehicle was towed to the selling dealer and the problem was reproducible and issue was not resolved. After diagnostic review with Toyota Corporate technician assistance, a diagnosis of "faulty transfer case actuator" was concluded after one week in the service department.

Windows, wipers & sunroof

We have a brand new Toyota Land Cruiser which is roughy two months old with just over 2000 miles on it. The plastic on our side views mirrors are literally melting as is the plastic on the side of the doors. The dealership refers to this as a "common" Toyota compliant called solar convergence which is NOT covered under the manufacturer's warranty. While the immediate damage is not causing a loss of visibility as the distortion continues it certainly will at some point. We have yet to receive a cost repair: Toyota should be forced to recall all Land Cruiser which use plastics known to be prone to solar convergence and replace all plastic at no charge. This is simply appalling that they are allowed to use these cost cutting materials in something as important as a side view mirror.

The driver's side mirror vibrates at highway speeds (to the point of blurriness, distortion, distraction). My local Toyota dealership confirmed the issue, however they said it happens on all land cruisers so they aren't willing to repair it. It's a manufacturing defect and safety issue. It's totally unacceptable and if the issue exists across the entire product line, Toyota should be held responsible for fixing the issue through a recall process.
