In owners' own words
Have owned the 2025 Toyota Tundra for about 18 months. Multiple instances of delayed acceleration when stopped or almost stopped, sometimes as much as 3 or 4 seconds. Last time was in early June, 2026. This is very dangerous because when I pull out into an intersection it will start to go but then lose all power for a few seconds with traffic coming behind me. This is something Toyota needs to look into. Engine
Throttle lag. When I step on the gas pedal, there is a hesitation or lag which the truck doesn't move forward when asked. Very, very dangerous when entering traffic. Almost caused an accident. Not good. This must be addressed before someone gets hurt or killed. This is no joke and should be taken seriously. I hope this doesn't get ignored as this is a serious problem. Engine
When accelerating from a standstill, the car hesitates for 1 to 2 seconds after I press the accelerator pedal. This is a safety concern, especially when merging onto the highway (we have stoplight-controlled merge lanes where I live), where accelerating the vehicle is essential to a safe merge into traffic going 65+ mph. There have been no warning lamps. Engine
