It’s not the wiper blades. It’s the wiper arms. They changed mine out and the problem was resolved. Something to do with the spring tension. Good luck and thanks for the video.

You said it! “Not made in Japan” where people still take pride in everything they do.

I have a 2017 and a 2021 tundra and have not had one single issue with either truck. Both trucks are absolutely perfect and I also get 18 miles per gallon regularly. And they have not been back to the dealership once for any issues. That is when Toyota was making good trucks.

I’m gonna stick to the last generation. The truck has “superior” performance on paper but I care about longevity. I bought the naturally aspirated v8 F150 back in 2011 over the ecoboost twin turbos for longevity and 270,000 miles later I’m not disappointed. On paper the twin turbo’d v6 trucks can’t be beaten, but they come with a different set of issues that just don’t exist with the simplicity of v8 trucks. I’m a contractor and the less complicated something is and the easier it is to fix the more appealing it is to me. The new Tundra’s are beautiful looking trucks though!

Super sorry to hear all this man, what a bummer. Keep staying positive and thank you for the updates!

Thanks for the update. I will be keeping my 2004 Double cab for now.

Thank you for the honesty on the persistent problems. I provides those identified items (like the rubber window seal) that I had not considered as possibly detaching.

Thanks for the review. Im about to get my 2023 SR5 and will look out for these issues. I know with 100% certainty the people in the factory are doing everything they can to correct problems and improve quality. That goes for every Toyota made in every factory. Keep in mind the last gen was around a long time and a lot of improvements were made over the years. I think this one will be the same.

I just bought my 2023 tundra crewmax 4x4 limited 6.5" last wed 19 july. I live in Canada and hope to have zero issues. Lots of new stuff to figure out. Take care and stay safe. PS: the blueprint one.

Seeing these problems with that mileage would really upset me. I have a 2008 tundra with 210k miles and I've for sure never had any of those problems 😬

I definitely feel your frustrations, I own a 2023 Platinum, been to the dealer 3 times and need to go back for the same issue (lane departure / cruise control/ lane assist failure) similar issues with the Bluetooth, and for the prices of these vehicles, running boards should be an automatic thing, the more you drag yourself in and out, the more wear and tear on the seats.

I have had zero issues with my ‘22 Tundra. I see these videos a lot and look for these type issues and just don’t experience any of it on mine.

Thanks for posting info. Was leaning towards a Tundra for new Truck but will now probably look at 3/4 ton options instead.

Been thinking about getting one. Glad I watched this first. Hard to find a good truck out there nowadays.

Well articulated review, well spoken thanks for the honestly. Hopefully Toyota is listening.

You are completely justified in your complaints ! Thanks for the info. I am in the market to buy in the next 3 months, I am currently a '17 Tacoma TRD owner with only 40K miles. Love the truck....but it has issues too that Toyota will not fix.... (brake slap! and suspension noises) I will NOT be buying this truck now that I see what you are dealing with.

I have a 2021 trd pro tundra. I installed marine grade trim on the uppper portion of door frame. I cant confirm on clearing the window rattle but it did help on seal an wind noise a little.

Great looking truck. Working through some qc issues with my 2023 Tacoma trd off road purchased in June. Missing paint and exposed primer on pinch welds. Hopefully dealer gets it fixed under warranty.

Well, you answered the questions to your problems with the tundra...its made here now! Quality went down the minute they partnered up to have them built here. Still a very good truck

23 1794 edition with 12k so far and pulled a 10k pound travel trailer from tampa to Yellowstone National Park and back down through Colorado and back to Florida(7600 mile trip), and not only did it pull amazing but haven’t had a single issue with this truck! I’m loving this truck! And I’ve owned ford, Dodge and the Nissan Titan, this truck is way better than those that I’ve owned. Either way it doesn’t matter manufacturer you’re always gonna have someone that’s gonna have a vehicle that’s gonna have lots of issues and then you’re gonna get some that do not have any hands down.

My 2008 sequoia 5.7 just hit 213400 miles. Trouble free. Interior is still in amazing condition. Use it as a family hauler and throw wood trash and all kinds of stuff in it. Love Toyotas. But can’t stand the new tundra and sequoia. Just change my exterior window seal stripping for the first time at 212k miles. Plugs at 199k. Still original coil packs. Struts and shocks at 200k for the first time. Fluids at 205k for the first time except oil. Replaced JBL front door speakers at 212500 miles. Originals finally deteriorated. Rest of speakers are still like new. (Front door 6x9 were a paper like material on the cone). Just installed a $750 9” floating head unit for wireless/wired Apple CarPlay. Pioneer dmh-wt3800. Absolutely love it. Installed door sill protectors around 210k miles. Needs new headlight assemblies finally. Exterior needs a paint job of course being 16 years old and 213k miles. Sooo I guess I could say I’ve been doing a restoration on it. Worth every penny because to buy a new sequoia (second gen) id have to spend $30-55k for a used one.

You are half way to a new turbo! 😄

I really appreciate this video. Thought we had problems with the old gen . Lot of these items are troublesome. I want a 1794 hibrid crew Trd long bed . I’m waiting for the refresh- 2025 . This is a big disappointment. Glad you show us ! Agree with u !

Thanks for sharing, Mine has the same problem with infotainment system, specially after the latest update. My phone won’t connect upon starting up the truck, it happened at random times. I took it to the dealer multiple times but no fix so far

I’d buy the previous generation over this one in a heart beat

Great video and thank you for making it. I bought a brand new 23’ Silverado RST 5.3 because I got tired of waiting on list for a 22 or 23’ Tundra. I knew GM is having lifter issues all over their V8 engines. So mine did right at 4500 miles. Anyways, got it fixed. The trucks has that V8 power, super smooth, perfect interior, perfect sound and everything you touch and feel inside and out the truck. I was going to trade it in after the lifter failure but after watching this… I might just keep it until Toyota wakes up from this nightmare of bad quality.

I had a 2012 Tundra , Never a single issue. I still own a 2000 Landcruiser, and it seems these new Tundras have had more issues in 1 year than all 17 years of owning a Land Cruiser.

How long before these issues came up? Also, when did you get this truck? Just curious. I got to rent one in fall of 2022 and absolutely loved it. It had 14k miles and none of these issues. At least that I noticed. I am likely going to get one as my next truck, but I knew I wouldn't want to get the first model year (or second).

I could be 100% wrong here but from my memory of researching this truck before I bought one (TRD Off Road package- same exact truck of yours)- I believe the Off Road models does NOT come with the air dam. Again I could be incorrect. I believe anything that is NOT the TRD Off Road package has the automatic air dam. I Just wanted to lend that tid bit of info. I have the same exact truck. Overall I've had a great experience! The window rattle drives me insane though!!!! I see TRD Jon just posted a fix. I'm about to try it lol! Thanks for posting these videos man! Hopefully Toyota watches these and addresses some of these issues!

Lower the door window all the way. With the door open, using the heel of your hand, give the door frame a good, solid "punch" right where it curves to bend/align the door window frame. This can end wind noise as well. LUCK!

Just bought a '24 Tundra Platinum. 500 mikes on it. Not one issue so fsr. Truck is improving each year.

Might sound silly, but the cleaner the windshield, the worse the noise. I figured out to wax my windshield when I wax the truck. Or spray wax often when washing the windows will do the trick. Been doing it 30 years and never have sqeaky windows. Clay bar made it worse.

This video saved me. I was close to purchasing a 2023 but these things would annoy the heck out of me. Thank you, Trigger Happy!

I have a 2015 SR5 + 5.7 double cab with the TRD off road package with about 80 thousand miles in the Canadian Prairies. I got 60 thousand miles on the original Michelin all terrain tires plus all regular maintenance including fluid changes of transmission, differentials, transfer case and coolant. To date the only repair I have done is the belt tensioner and belt. I still have the original wiper blades and the truck went through a safety when I bought out my lease from Toyota at 60 thousand miles. The only quality control issue I had was at approx 30 thousand miles my windshield would chirp when at highway speeds with crosswinds in a specific direction. The dealer put xtra sealant which worked for a bit but eventually I had the windshield changed after it cracked from a rock and problem solved. My personal experience is that the Tundra doesn't do anything the best but does everything pretty good. I recall my dealer saying that the new totally redesigned Tundra would be coming in the 2017 model year which I patiently waited for but never came. With so much time I would of thought the quality would have been better but I guess real world testing will find the trucks shortcomings which should be addressed to make the truck better. I don't think the new truck will be as dependable or retain as much value as the outgoing V8 5.7. Not sure how many people will want to spend big bucks on a used twin turbo with 150 thousand miles knowing that you could end up with a $7500 give or take bill for turbos and intercoolers. Never the less it is a nice looking truck and I am seeing more of them on the road.

Thank you..I was considering a tundra limited 23…..I’ll stick to my ram rebel…many many 🙏 Think bout getting into camping product testing and sign me up…

Have you tried cloth adhesive tape for the window? It's made for interior rattles, I wonder if that would work on the inside of it.?

For the price they pulled out of their rear end this truck should be perfect in every way! Keeping my old one til the wheels come off!

Still love my 2010 Tundra with the 4.6 L. No weird noises, runs and tows great. Only has 124,000 miles on it.

Thanks for the update! Quality video! I wouldn’t buy one yet. I’ve heard too many issues.

I’ll give you my review on my 07 Silverado, it’s payed for and runs strong 💪

Can't wait to see the issues with the new Tacoma.🙄 I have a 2014 Tundra and like people have mentioned. Besides brakes, i haven't done anything except oil changes and a trans flush. 5.7L is solid. Yes I want the bells and whistles, but glad I held off.

I am 40+ k in on my 22 1794 and no issues at all. No rattling no sounds. Trans is flawless I have been replacing the oil every5-6k as always. Love the extra power, the Land Cruiser offroad capability and the interior!

I had a 2007 tundra and had several problems. Had several f150’s and never had to go back to dealer for anything. Hopefully they get these little issues corrected, you are right, they want top dollar they better have a better product.

I have a 2022 limited off road, same issues with the vent and seat. I also have the fuel gage that resets itself at half tank. I had a massive issue with panoramic roof leaking water. I finally opened up a lemon law, still in the process.

Window issue is due to fixing and location strategy to mating part. Seat plastic valance is due to lack of supporting ribs on b surface. The stress factor is due to ingress/egress. Wiper issue is due to not the wiper blades but the wiper arms and their geometry. The Texas plant does need to sort out their issues.

I have a ‘23 lunar rock SR5 sport premium. I have zero issues. No noises or quality issues.

I had a 22 then purchased a 23 beginning of this year no problems at all other then the plastic in the seat I think they resolved many issues between 22 and 23 as for the phone I did finally upgrade to a newer phone and what a difference it works perfectly every time I get into the truck also no rattling or noise what's soever I really love this thing oh one other thing never go to them for balance or alignment at the dealership they don't know what they are doing go to a independent garage for that

Appreciate your updates. Great truck in my opinion, but...we differ on the longevity, usefulness and capabilities of V8's. What do the 'better" features of the TTV6 actually get you? And how much is that worth? I paid $39k new for my 2018 SR5 TRD DC 4x4. I would not spend an extra $20K for the same trim for a 2023, only getting 8 more hp, 71 more PFT and 1,800 lb. more towing, especially when I don't need it. It also adds additional complexity and likely more maintenance expenses. My 2018 pulls my 6,000 lb. camper just fine and has never let me down with any other chore. My point is that, IMHO, the v6 turbos should be discussed as a choice for those that want it, and not "the only reasonable decision because V8's are in the past".

On my 2022, I notice when I start the truck up first thing in the morning, the transmission makes a clank sound because I left it in tow mode the day before when shutting it off. I’ll keep an ear out for transmission issues next that you experienced. Also my seats cracked and front grill chrome is wrinkling and there’s a piece of sand in the paint on rear passenger door column. The quality left when Covid got here.😢 1794 here

For the phone connection issue, try pushing the volume power button for 3 seconds. That resets the system. I read it in the manual.

Thanks for the review, I was thinking of trading in my GMC but I think I will stay put with GMC.

Good/Fair assessment. Tundra's high strung V6 is a show stopper for me. I bought a GX specifically for the NA V8, and that the GX is build in Japan. Cost was similar to a 4x4 Tundra at 61K but the build quality of the GX is significantly higher.

A clean glass will squeak. Use Nu Finish car polish on it & the noise will go away.

4 cy Turbos are great and been used for years, the 8 speed trans that Toyota is using is very good also

Keeping my V8 2019 Tundra. None of those problems for 15k less.

My 23 1794 TrdOffroad is a HUGE upgrade from my 20 Trd Pro!

Try changing washer fluid. I’ve had some fluids apparently leave a film or something on the glass.

Nice truck!! I prefer blue print but this is my second choice. And I would get rid of the predator steps. Besides that. Excellent

Excellent video review of ownership. Because I’m really thinking about buying the 1794 edition. As for the wiper blades, I use to own a Car Wash and I would run my truck through all the time. The chemicals in the car wash would dry out my wiper blades. If you put bags over them, it will not happen. That’s if that’s the case for your blades.

I had a 2008 Tundra with the 5.7L V8 and it has 300k miles. I don't own it anymore since I gave it to my dad but he's still using it for work everyday. Never had a single issue with it and only gave it to my dad because I got a new truck. I ended up getting a 22 Tacoma, even though I was a Tundra guy. Once they got rid of the 5.7L V8, I figured i'd stick to the Tacomas V6. I can live without the extra power.

I had similar issues with a new 2020 highlander, which was a first year model. Had major rattling issues coming from the dash and rear of the vehicle. Took months and me making KZfaq videos calling out Toyota to get it fixed, which was done by simply adding more sound padding. Toyota wouldn’t help until I sent them the videos posted on KZfaq. I then had the back frame of the rear seat break after the first person sat in it. Took months to finally get them to replace the frame. I recently had the left front wheel bearing go out at 73k miles which was a $900 fix, dealer wanted $1300, but the roads in my area are horrible, so not sure if that is a road issue or not. Mechanically, the car is perfect and rides and drives better than every rental car I’ve used that cost twice as much. I’ll take these interior issues over the numerous electrical/transmission issues I had in multiple GM vehicles.

Thank you well said I am waiting to buy one

V8's are not done in half tons. They're done in Toyota, but Ram, Ford, and GM all still offer excellent v8's. And what's more, GM recently committed to building a next generation V8 for use in trucks and SUVs. Some of us won't compromise on v8's until there is literally no option left, but that day is years in the future when it comes to trucks.

I recall back in the year 2000+ on, the SAME part of the seat on the S Class M-B's cracked/broke & needed replacement. I fixed HUNDREDS of 'em!

I have been waiting to buy Tundra number 5, I just can’t deal with the poor looks, only ok MPG and all the issues. Toyota needs to look at upper management for the failure of the long awaited new Tundra…. Talking about you Mike Sweers. Considering how long us Toyota faithful have waited and how long Toyota had to make an amazing truck, this is not acceptable.

Sorry to hear this. I am really happy with my 9th Tundra, a 2018 loaded SR5 Dbl. Cab in Cement. I’m 71, use it mainly for towing our camper. It is probably my last truck…😊

I have a 2023 Limited and don't have these issues. Try ceramic coating your windshield to see if that fixes the wiper noise.

I owned a gmc canyon for one day last month. Returned it with 23 miles….no power steering. Happy with my tundra so far, 200 miles still getting 14mpg

Two dealerships here in San Antonio have tried to buy my 2017 Tundra which has been maintained by the dealerships the entire time and after seeing this video, I’m glad I have turned them down multiple times.

I got a 23 tundra sr 3 months ago and dont have any of those problems

I’ll say this for you. You are much more patient than I. By the way there are multiple manufacturers that still offer a V8. If I were in your shoes I would find the last year of the previous generation Tundra. You will be happier. There is more to life than MPG and torque. Thanks for sharing.

Lived in Japan for 11 years, work ethic is amazing

Toyota- Dammn boy, you cracked the seat. You thick!! I have a 21 sr5, considering upgrading to a new truck but i am still having my doubts. Just got home from the gmc dealership, they wanted 67k for a truck which visors don’t even have lights (I am picky) or blind spot monitor. Any advice on getting the new tundra??

I wonder if you were to personally sit in a 2023 Tundra, how the build quality would differ. Maybe most of these issues would be solved, as the issues are mainly plaguing the early 2022s.

For the time being you might want to use a plastic wedge like are used to keep a toilet from moving around on the window edge to keep it from rattling.

My uncle had a 2021 tundra and he really liked it he was on the highway and the engine blew at 21,000 miles he was pissed and got it fixed that traded it in for a ram

I also have a 22 and I also have issues with wind noise, seat and air vent. The dealer replaced the air vent and seat but it took a while to get parts. Still have issues with wind noise but the dealer said that they can't do anything. The biggest issue I have is the needle and mileage will randomly go to full. I can have half a tank with 240 miles left of fuel and then all of a sudden I have a full tank with 490 miles of fuel while driving on the highway. I always have to keep a mental note of how many miles of fuel I have because I'm afraid one day I'll be stuck on the side of the road. The dealer hasn't been able to figure out the issue.

Thanks for sharing your owner, first hand experience. So much for "You should have bought a Toyota. A Toyota wouldn't do that. Your Toyota dealer wouldn't do that to you"

So… window rattles, seat breaks, (twice) and when you stop, the car stays in high gear… I’m sticking with my previous gen platinum.

That’s so annoying, hopefully they work through these issues in the next couple years, there are always growing pains with the first couple years of a brand new vehicle

Just bought a 2022 Limited TRD that was a loaner in the service dept. Had the seat issue Have the door seal issue Have the center console issue Have the back door window outer seal issue Haven’t even used the wipers yet🤞 and no engine issues….so far. I waited forever to buy a gently used Gen 3 Tundra and jumped on the first deal that I found. Hoping the issues get resolved reasonably quick

you need to change the angle of the wiper blade handle to get rid of the noise.

Hey, do you recall approximately at what point the window rattle, seat breaking, and air vent breaking happened? My Dad bought a 2023 Tundra SR5 in March. So he's had it 3 months, roughly 3k miles on it. He hasn't had any of these issues yet, just wondering if we should be keeping an eye out for their potential arrival. Overall, he's happy with it and I think it's a pretty good truck.

If this is a SR5 off road is that a option to have the color match around the front grill. Usually on a off road this is chrome

I was a Toyota guy through and through and these quailing issues with the new Tundra made me think twice about getting one. The pricing and availability are the other two.

What is a TSB and what did you do to help the transmission? My neighborhood has a downhill stop sign and it struggles when I hit the gas to go again. I have been switching it to manual

I feel your pain Bro, I have been documenting the problems on my Canadian 22 Sport TRD on my You Tube channel as well. I am optimistic they will fix my problems because I still love the truck.

When I bought the 2016 first year of the new redesigned Tacoma on the highway when it was windy I would hear a whistle coming from the passenger side. It was one of those 1 year of a product annoying issues. I have 2018 Tacoma now and haven’t had that problem. Definitely sucks no matter what though. Thinking about a 2023 Tacoma or 2024 tundra since they’ll have had more time to iron things out

Wow I’m surprised to hear these issues with Toyota. I had buyers remorse after going with a 2022 Gmc Sierra Denali and not the Tundra because I’m still concerned about the GM reliability. The only issue I’ve had so far with the GM after 10,000 Miles is the radio sound will cut out for a second. And it happens fairly often

I bought a 2008 Toyota Tundra SR5 Crewmax 4x4 (5.7) new and kept it for 12 years and 95K miles. It was an awesome truck and I wish I never sold it. I was excited that Toyota was coming out with an all new Tundra until the unveiling...not all that impressive.

That air vent drives me nuts. We have also gone through both seat panels breaking and my driver is cracking already.

2022 SR5 here. I’m on my second broken seat side cover as well. When I put the truck in park, the engine shuts off and immediately restarts. The leg room in the double cab is a joke. Literally about 2” space between the front seat and rear seat. I love the 2 Turbo V6 and the 10 speed transmission, and improved gas mileage.

23 Tundra here. No bottom air damp for off road package. Has lagging issues on acceleration too. Drive side window noise too. My windshield get dirty all the time due to front air damp.

So sorry you’re having all the troubles bud. I’m pretty certain the ORP don’t come with the air dam. Common thread between you, TRDJon and a few others with those same issues seems to be build date and they are all non-hybrid. It’s not scientific of course and one thing has no causal relationship to the other, BUT, it sure fits. Super envious of your gas mileage btw… I can’t get more than 14 around town (short trips albeit), and 19 on the highway IF I’m doing 65 with the cruise control on. Eco mode actually makes my MPG WORSE somehow. Hope it gets

I have a 23 Tundra. It seems like they fixed these issues thankfully.

What tires are you running on the truck?

please comment with Rodney's Northwest Rides and Reviews about the transmission issues, seems to be across the board

Have really been weighing tundra vs ram lately…value is still there if you think some of the safety and infotainment is important, but I’m pretty mixed with what I’m seeing. I know I know, ram this ram that on quality, but I see lots of these complaints on tundras and ram owners seem generally pleased with their vehicles + a v8

I got a 17 Silverado z71 v8. Reviews on the truck are trans problems. I added the v4 disabler and never had any issues but we’ll see. Almost 100k on it now. Those wipers tho, you get To your destination stressed out!

I really dig the "Hulk Hogan" mustache front grill.
