Hi, I'm experencing a issue with Toyota, the clutch for the AC failed and l took it into Guelph Toyota. June 18th.and was told they would phone my next week when the parts came in, no courtesy call back. Finally the following week, I phoned them and was told part was on back order. At this point they said mid July for the part. The reason for the delay is that their is a broad issue with this part and something like 257 customers are also waiting. I was now told it would be mid August.
I contacted Toyota Canada two different times about the unacceptable service and wondered why their was no recall as their is an obvious issue with the defective clutch. They had issues last year also. L was told they no longer use this part in the new trucks. Toyota Canada said that it is not their problem as the warranty had run out. They said if l wanted to get some compensation l would have to take that up with the dealer as they may have ways of working around it to help out with the cost. My original call to dealer, l was told he would phone Toyota Canada and phone me back, no call back, Three calls later still no call back. All l can say it has been a poor customer experience. I'm really disappointed and expected better.

I purchase a Toyota wheel chair conversion van 2023, this was my second conversion van purchased from Toyota and I also have purchased two trucks, their concern for their customers has gone down hill. They have a customer engagement system which is basically a kick the can down the road, until you go away,, The van was 90000 when purchased with a Braun conversion. Supposedly a Toyota authorised conversion, the AC was defective from new. In May 2024 their local dealer Williams Toyota worked on it. Said was fixed, following year after winter discovered it was still not working, took it back to local dealer, they said could not find leak, charged me 340 bucks, this van has less than 14000 miles, called Braun conversion. They stepped up. Provided a rental.
Had Bennett Toyota in Allentown fix it, asked Toyota factory to get me refunded my money from their worthless local dealer, Toyota factory did nothing. Basically pass the buck, kick the can down the road, put on a dog and pony show for months, buy anything but a Toyota. Save yourself the grief, they don't stand behind their product, lots of excuses, keep you in the dark like a mushroom and feed you sh*t. I am done with them.

Once, the name Toyota conjured images of bulletproof reliability and engineering prowess, a legacy forged between the 80s and early 2000s. Today, that legacy is a crumbling facade, a brand desperately clinging to the coattails of a bygone era. It pains me to say that no automotive manufacturer has plummeted further in regards to quality and customer focus.
My experience with their new vehicle is a testament to their spectacular decline. With a mere 390 miles on the odometer, my vehicle has remained idle at a Toyota dealership for over two months. Their prognosis is another 2.5 months of waiting for a part, and this ETA has low confidence. This isn't just unacceptable; it's an outright insult to any customer who dares to purchase a new vehicle from them.
What's truly infuriating is Toyota's brazen disregard for its customers. Far from acknowledging their abysmal quality control, they've masterfully attempted to gaslight me into believing I'm the problem. Kimbra Marsh, from the Central Atlantic Distribution office, exemplifies this callous indifference. She scoffed at my legitimate safety concerns regarding a malfunctioning backup camera and other critical electrical issues, dismissing them as not valid, claiming "we went how long without backup cameras?" Well, they were made requisite in modern vehicles for a reason...
Apparently, expecting a brand new 2025 vehicle to be fully functional is an unreasonable demand in Toyota's warped reality. Not a single shred of empathy was offered, just a chilling reminder that, to Toyota, customers are mere inconveniences to be shuffled aside. The entire organization is a masterclass in bureaucratic obstruction, each department a new layer in a labyrinth designed to shield them from accountability. Customer care is an alien concept, sacrificed at the altar of pure profit. It's abundantly clear that for Toyota, the bottom line is all that matters. F-

The AC compressor failed on my 2018 Toyota Camry with just over 20K miles on it. Of course, the so-called "Toyota advocate" said it was out of warranty. I told them that the part was clearly defective and should be covered based on customer loyalty (I have several Toyotas in my fleet). They said they would send it on to a resolution agent to make a determination. I will hear back in 3-5 business days. Seven business days later, I called and got the same warranty speech. This time they said they couldn't get ahold of the decision-maker so it would get flagged on some report for them to get back with me. Eight days later, no word.
Called and was again told the same warranty speech, but this time they added that someone had called three times 16 days earlier. My phone shows no calls on the date I was given. It would have been nice to know on the earlier calls so I could quit wasting my time. The entire process was disjointed, ineffective, and beyond annoying. Take me off your list of brand loyalists! With Toyota, brand loyalty is a one-way street that I won't be taking again!!!

Purchased a 2024 Tundra Hybrid TRD Pro in May of 2024. Within four months had loud rattling from the hybrid motor. Toyota dealer acknowledged it was not normal, tried a TSB that didn’t work and then stated Toyota refuses replacement until catastrophic failure. At idle, the rattling became tied to a very rough idle where the engine would almost die multiple times. Toyota again refused to do anything with it, stating they knew there was an issue, but didn’t have a solution and wouldn’t extend warranty or replace parts until it fully failed. I have had five new Toyotas, this will be my last one. Tried to sell it back to dealer at a loss, and was advised to try to hide the rattling noise when selling. I will never buy a Toyota again.

I will never buy another Toyota again. I had GAP insurance with Toyota Financial and they will not honor paying in full my vehicle loan. They are crooks and will in every way breach a contract.

Dealership sales defective vehicle: I have purchased Toyota Camry 2018. It came with 5 year warranty/60000 Km. Recently I came across transmission failure issue on 62000 KM on it. When I talk to Toyota Canada they said my warranty is expired (1 year ago) so they won't be able to repair transmission and advised me to talk to dealership manager where I bought car. I emailed to dealership but no answer, I called them but not able to help me. "Same comment, won't be able to do anything under warranty because it's expired.
Moreover I have a recall notice from Toyota Canada about its safety which indicated that my vehicle may contain defect that could affect the safety of person. And I believe failure of transmission is a part of this recall. I have complained this to BBB and AMVIC as well. I chose Toyota for its reputation of reliability, but the transmission failure I encountered shattered that trust. The transmission issues not only led to high repair costs but also created a feeling of uncertainty around owning a Toyota. What was supposed to be a dependable, long-lasting car became a headache and financial burden.
For anyone considering buying a Toyota, especially a used model from the years affected by transmission problems, I strongly advise proceeding with caution. Don’t let the brand’s reputation for reliability blind you to the very real risk of transmission failure. I can’t recommend Toyota at this point, as the company’s failure to adequately address this issue has left me thoroughly dissatisfied.

This dealer doesn't following its own guidelines for recalls. I have had to pay for everything since I purchased the car even the auxiliary, I missed the cut-off date. I have received no discounts, I do not qualify. The braking system in these cars is not dependable. You rely on your car to keep you safe, well me and my Prius almost went off the side of a retaining due to brake failure and a glitch. I have complained since I have had the car that the braking system is unreliable and dangerous, well I paid to replace brakes and rotors, my name wasn't on the recall list. I will never ever buy a Toyota again. In life, I would rather walk.

I bought a 2025 Toyota Camry and have an issue with brakes, I was sitting at a fuel station and the vehicle moved forward while brakes were applied hitting the poles. The second time I was at a light and the vehicle moved forward almost into the cross traffic. I notified the dealer and was told to call Toyota, and an inspector came to the dealer and looked at the vehicle and did not see a concern at the time of the inspection and stated that no data was stored. Since then, the vehicle has had an issue with the vehicle going into drive while in park causing the vehicle to raise the rpm's and lift up almost like power braking and you can hear the emergency brake make a crunch noise'
The third concern is while driving at 45 mph the engine rpms fluctuate almost 500 rpms causing the vehicle to jerk back and forth causing me to pull over and restart the vehicle. I contacted the dealer, and they stated that once Toyota looks at the vehicle it cannot be looked at again but did offer to try and find an issue with the rpm issue, but it will have the same outcome because it is random and if they don't see an issue, they will not look at it again so my options are to wait for an issue to happen again maybe causing an accident or hitting something else or just trade the vehicle in with another manufacture because my wife and daughter are afraid to drive this car. I was happy with this vehicle and was impressed with the technology, but this is not the way for Toyota to treat their customers.

We bought 2 new vehicles over a month ago. We were given a trade-in value for our car. This went down by 1500.00 when we got to finance. We were told this was because we were native American and did not have to pay taxes. What? We were lied to many times. Trying to get the 2nd set of keys that are supposed to come with the new truck. One guy said they were in the pocket of salesman who was out of town. Then he says, "No we never received the keys, you have to come in on the 1 day he is here to have them made." We have been lied to by sales, finance, and corporate. Save your money and go somewhere where they respect you even after they get your money.

I am writing this with great reluctance and guilt. Toyota has always been a great car for me and especially the Prius that I am writing about. I have owned 3 of them. However, I believe Toyota quality has decreased in the last few years. There are two plastic panels behind the rear passenger windows that are peeling over the last two years on a 2017 Prius. When I checked with Google on the internet I found many many customers on multiple websites that are having the exact same problem with just these two panels. There are the same types of panels elsewhere on this vehicle that are not peeling just the two behind the rear passenger windows are doing this.
This is a classic sign of a manufacturing defect when many other people with a 2017 Toyota are having the exact same problem with the same 2 panels. I just spoke with the complaints section at Toyota National headquarters and a problem reviewer for Toyota said that they refuse to fix these 20 dollar panels. I hope that the 40 dollars they saved is going to be worth all the bad press that they are going to receive because everywhere I can find to inform people of Toyota's lack of integrity and quality, I am going to warn people; do not buy Toyota. They do not stand behind their products anymore... Corporate GREED.

My son and I visited Toyota New Circle Rd at the beginning of August, and he purchased a brand-new Toyota Camry 2025 for $35000. We waited for one month and received the car from the factory. On 8/17, the car did not start; our excitement was short-lived, as the vehicle failed to start within one week of our purchase. We had to call a towing company, who returned the car to the New Circle Rd store. This unexpected turn of events was not only frustrating but also inconvenient for us. On Monday, 8/19, they called and said the car was running. My son brought the car. However, the car did not start again for the second time on 8/31.
We called the towing company, and they came and took the vehicle back to the New Circle Rd store for the 2nd time. We met with Jeremy **, the assistant services manager, who was rude and had no experience with customer service and insulting behavior. He treated us negatively. We also requested a car rental because the car was still under warranty. The sales agent sent us to the services department. The services department sent us to the sales department, but in the end, we did not receive any help or support because it was a weekend.
We had a wedding and were very stressed with the car situation. Then we missed his cousin's wedding. The 2025 Camry car with 600 mileages is in the New Circle Rd store, and we are waiting for a call from the services department. This is the 5th car we bought from Toyota, and we are a loyal customer, but unfortunately, we had a bad experience with awful customer care. This situation has caused us significant emotional distress and disrupted our important family events. As a result of this experience, I have decided not to invest in or buy a Toyota car.

I bought a 2024 Toyota Tundra TRD with an off road package 1/31/24. Two things have turned me off Toyotas for life: 1) I live on a gravel road but do not drive my vehicle "off-road" - just down my 8.5 road that, during spring can be very muddy. The Toyota wheels collect mud in the rims such that, after you wash the vehicle the entire vehicle shakes violently at 45+mph. When I contacted Toyota (1500 miles on my brand new vehicle) about their wheel design flaw, they refused to do anything about it and insisted this was not a design flaw at all. I spent $4000 on new wheels and tires and have not had the issue since -- DESIGN FLAW. See pic of the wheel after a MANUAL car wash
2) When I bought my new truck I was only given 1 key fob. The dealer told me there was a supply chain issue and they'd send me one as soon as they could. When I followed up 2 months later, I was told by the dealer (Autonation in Tempe, AZ) that I had to follow up with Toyota directly as they "couldn't control" the continuing supply chain issue.
When I called Toyota, they said I was scheduled to get a letter from them in August (8 months after purchase) regarding when I might get my key fob. Guess what? It's 8/16 and no letter. I called Toyota again and was advised they could not guarantee that they could get me a key fob by the end of August. They were going to call the dealer to see if they could get me one. When I questioned this statement since the dealer had told me they couldn't control getting one, Toyota again said the dealers had to "see if they could order one". Why could a dealer not order one from Toyota? What happens if I lose my single key fob? Can they get me one then? I live 4 hours from the nearest dealer, so it's a whole day for me to "run to the dealership".

I just purchased a new 2024 Toyota Sienna Platinum. Imagine my surprise to learn that the $1415.00 entertainment system does not include a DVD Player. I learned after the sale, I had to purchase a HDMI cable, and DVD Player so my grandchildren can watch videos. In addition I received an email from Toyota telling me I had to turn on the Safety connect services which include, the SOS system, auto collision notification, remote connect (using the cellphone to lock, unlock, or start the vehicle), any destination assist (includes someone telling you how to get somewhere, and downloading the necessary map), and the Dynamic Navigation, which is the automatic update of maps.
When I called to have these services/features turned on, I was told unless I allow them to collect my vehicles data, to include driving habits, for research and data analysis, they will not turn the services on. None of this information was given to me at the time of purchase. I would never purchase a vehicle knowing this information. Now I have an expensive boat anchor in the form of a entertainment system. And since I don't actually use a cellphone, I have no way to call for help in the case of an accident since the SOS system is not connected.
Toyota needs to go back to the drawing board. Any Toyota employee who decided the vehicle will not include a DVD player should be fired. Honda, and Chrysler still include the DVD player. I know because I have owned them. No other auto maker requires you to allow them to collect date, if you want to use the SOS system or any other system that comes with the vehicle. I am weighing my options as to contact a lawyer about this issue. Toyota apparently doesn't know what the consumer wants, or they would include a DVD player and connect the Safety features without requiring the customer to give permission to collect data, (which could end up in the hands of law enforcement for any reason).

I have purchased/owned Toyotas (6) everything from Tacomas to PriusC. I had grown accustomed to the quality that went with the brand. However, after purchasing a Highlander, my rating for Toyota has gone from a solid 5 to a 2. My Highlander had a recall for a small part in the engine. I never knew there was a recall on this part until my engine locked up at 146,000 miles and the mechanic told me it had an recall that had never been fixed. I bought this particular vehicle after said recall had been rescinded. I called Toyota Customer Care. I was hoping they would have some explanation for the lack of notification. After waiting for almost a week for them to "review", I was told they needed verification from a Toyota Service Center. I have to pay another $100 for the service center to tell me what MY mechanic had ALREADY told me...the Toyota Service techs argued with me about there ever being a recall.
When Customer Care called me back, I was told, "sorry, I know you have been a long time customer, however there is nothing we can do for you. You should have been taking your Highlander to a Toyota Service center instead of the mechanic (you've been using for over 20 years.)" Ok, so in other words, if you purchase a Toyota, you have NO CHOICE of which mechanic you can use... (even though the Toyota Mechanics I have used overcharged, misdiagnosed, and treat me as if I'm stupid). Which is why I stopped using them in the first place. So, that being said, buyer beware. Toyotas are great until you actually have a problem. So after spending years with this company I sadly have to bid them ado.

There is no way to describe how slow things are running. I put an order on 19th Mar 2024 for a Toyota Yaris And still I haven't delivered. Although I was reassured from the sales that it will be delivered within a two months period. There must be a major problem with the CEOs in Athens if they can't synchronize the production line with the market's demands. It's simpler to say it's a fantastic car, it's sold out at once so if you want to put an order you'll have to wait 3 or 4 or 5 months. The staff is polite but little help as they can do nothing. Big problem also to get the license number. More than 10 days delay. It depends from public servants' service but a huge company as Toyota could do more, even as formal complaint to who it may concern in the government. After all it's the 21st century.
