Recently reported SERVICE BRAKES problems on 2018 Toyota Tundra

1st off, i drive a 2018 tundra, my integrated trailer brake controller doesnt apply brakes on any trailer. it throws an error message and will not work on any trailer type settings. had trailer checked and tested with other vehicles and trailer works fine. and of course the same exact issue is all over the internet since 2016 and up, with no fix or responibilites taken on toyotas part. not habing trailer brakes is a very dangerous situation and believe that if i paid for the brake system i should have to buy an aftermarket one just to pull my trailers safely. 2nd issue is once again electrical, the radio shut on and off every 10 minutes or so...will not keep presets saved etc, told toyota and they tried to download and update and said the radio wouldn't except the download. of course truck is out of the horrible offered 30k mile warranty....so i have a 2018 tundra 4x4 that has a broken radio and can't even pull a trailer.....hard to wanna make a payment for that kinda stuff.

Tl* the contact owns a 2018 toyota tundra. while driving 25 mph, the contact noticed an abnormal noise coming from the rear driver's side wheel. while approaching an intersection, the brakes seized without warning when the brake pedal was depressed. the contact exited the vehicle and noticed that the brake caliper was tangled in the wheel. the contact attempted to drive the vehicle with the emergency brake activated, but it caused more damage to the rim and rear driver's side wheel. team toyota of glen mills (1050 baltimore pike, glen mills, pa 19342, (484) 407-0835) diagnosed the vehicle and informed the contact that someone tampered with the brake system, which caused the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and provided case number: 1906060300. the failure mileage was 13,900.

Driving at 45mph comming upon an empty intersection with a stop light. brakes came on and warnings flashed yet nothing in front of me.

Tl* the contact owns a 2018 toyota tundra. when the vehicle was started, the brake pedal traveled to the floor without warning. the vehicle was taken to kenny kent toyota (5600 division st, evansville, in 47715, (812) 618-0061) to be diagnosed, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. the vehicle was not repaired and the failure recurred. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vin was not included in a recall. the failure mileage was approximately 14,531.

On a quick hard braking..applies brake then without lifting brake pedal pressure the. truck automatically releases it and slides forward some distance...the vehicle was in motion...this has happen twice before....this time ran into a turning vehicle

When its moist out. the cruise will auto cancel itself and the pcs failure lights up on the dash. happens semi often. dealer states they can't fix it but to bring it in when it happens again. the truck brakes for ghosts as i drive down the highway. they can't fix this either.

Pre-collision system warning and "brake" warning light keeps coming on and warning me for no reason, toyota have repealed the sensor 3 times so far and the system keeps failing, my biggest concern is the vehviae will start braking for no reason and end up getting rear ended by another vehicle. this been happing since we bought the truck, pictures shows all warning over the last 14000 miles.

Toyota informed me through mail to my address that my new 2018 toyota tundra "fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standards (fmvss) no.208," "occupant crash protection," and 214, "side impact protection." when i called the customer service number provided 1-888-270-9371 to ask if they would be willing to cover the cost of taking the vehicle to an alternate repair facility located on my island, they refused, not only did they refuse but they claimed that only a toyota authorized dealer could perform the repair. when i asked how i was suppose to deal with the safety recall without an option to bring my vehicle to an authorized dealer, i was told that i would just have to figure that out on my own, when i asked for the response in writing they also claimed that toyota would not provided that.

Pre-crash system does not work properly, with no vehicle in front of me while driving on the hwy, at times if a vegicle passes me on either left or right side, the crash warning beeped and brakes applied, note: no one is in front of me, this has happened a few times, since the initial recall for updates, my pre-crash system inticates its on, however, its not working, yesterday at about 2:15 pm on 8/27/2018 it failed and i hit someone in the rear and speed under 10 mph, i was told by fred anderson toyota of sanford nc service department that they have had some that was out of calibration and that mine should have worked wether if cruise control is on or off.. well it doesn't not work, my truck goes into toyota today 8/28/2018 at fred anderson toyota to be checked again since the software recall update. i have 650.00 in damage to my truck, not sure on the amount of the vehicle i hit because the system failed. i have been reading a lot of complaints on this issue, and it seams toyota is not doing nothing

Pre-collision sensors. pre-collision sensor has gone off twice advising me to brake. both times there was no other vehicle around me nor was there anything to the sides or in front. took it to the local dealership and they called toyota corporate (?). was advised there's no fix and to continue driving the vehicle and annotate all factors surrounding my vehicle if it goes off again. seems like an extremely unsafe alternative to finding out why a pre-collision sensor goes off. i should not feel unsafe driving my vehicle

The pre collision warning light illuminates a various times. the cruise control will not work when illuminated. the sensor has been kept clean. it does not give a failure code at the dealer. it was reprogramed. the pre collision braking was a major feature in my buying process and it does not work correctly.

Multiple events. 2500 miles on vehicle. while driving 70mph in cruise control the pre-collision warning came on and vehicle applied brakes forcefully without any vehicle ahead of my vehicle until i turned off cruise control. after the event the traler brake malfunction statement and warning lights were on. pre -collision failure light reset after key cycled off and back on. failure occurred multiple times in multiple driving conditions, currently trailer brake failure light is illuminated. each time i had to exit or pull over and stop vehicle, cycle key to have warning clear.

Tl* the contact owns a 2018 toyota tundra. while driving 35 mph, the pedestrian warning indicator intermittently illuminated and the brake warning indicator illuminated; however, the vehicle failed to stop. the vehicle was taken to tejas toyota (19011 highway 59 n, humble, tx 77338), but the failure was unable to be duplicated. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was notified. the failure mileage was approximately 7,800.
