Finally, someone speaking truths. Also, the generation that is so addicted to clicking point also has never witnessed next generation Toyota stuff coming out. This is their first Toyota next generation transition. Last time Toyota had a transition into a new generation of vehicles. They were all 10 years old and we’re playing video games and don’t remember all the recalls that happened in 2009 2010 ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Love this detail. I’ll be sharing this with all family n friends.

Toyota engine plant failed to clean and inspect engine block before assembly of the engine but there still more reliable than domestic vehicles are just saying i’ll still drive by Toyota over anything

Hey there, loving the content! Wanted to add in that here in Dubai on the GCC models, the batteries are made by a company called Exide Industries, out of India. The battery is branded Toyota Genuine Part, now I’m trying to find a Panasonic one 😅 I’m a 2020 GX460

The 3.5tt V6 do have a problem and surely they will perfect it because they are Toyota.

My Lexus reminds of my Suzuki GSX-R 1000. Everything is made in Japan. When I sold my old 05 GSXR at with 50K on it. It never burned a drop of oil. Nothing failed throughout the life of it besides batteries. My 16 Lexus IS 300 when sold. The same. Never burned a drop of oil when sold with 99K. Batteries brakes and yes it does eat tire's. That's why I recently purchased a 24 IS 350. Reliability is most important to me. Small improvements is the way to go

I would say the corolla is solid yaris and prius are solid solid camry and rav4 solid 5th gen 4runner solid solid highlander pretty good the new line is a project in the works not bad not good just finding it's way to toyotas ideal standards they haven't gave up sold out just working on their next lineage

Still sucks for those that bought a new truck and had their engine fail already

Toyota follows through with their warranty’s and recalls so I’m not really concerned about much at all!

I did not know that thanks for sharing, but I always wondered why pay more for OEM parts when there are well spec alternatives. I get your point however the people who have these troubled cars have been hurt either financially or mentally. Just knowing your car may break down anytime is not a good feeling. A lemon is a lemon!! as owner of Toyota. Honda, Bmw for the last 40 years I would not buy any of these new or used Toyota or Lexus models for now, I'd wait until they fix the main issues.

US assembled Toyotas use Johnson Controls (Clarios) batteries. Window glass is probably US sourced too. Not saying that's bad just saying...

Here’s the real question, how do we put the thought in Toyota’s skull to put a bloody third row in the GX 550 Overtrail models?

Though Yamaha aids in the design and engineering of the engine, Toyota still manufactures them. If any single step in the manufacturing process is not done perfect and the exact same every single time…. You end up with these issues.

I don't understand your point. Yamaha designed the old engines and they designed the new engine, and therefore the same? No one is arguing about the design. The problems are in manufacturing. Just because the vendor is the same, doesn't equate to quality. I think the point people are making is that QC in manufacturing at 'TOYOTA' has dropped.

Shortsighted as always. People already FORGOT the thousands of 4.6L and 5.7 recalls of the past.. along with the various other "QC" related recalls of the past. The masses are short sighted and lack contextual intelligence. Conbine this with an insatiable affinity for impulse-based fear-mongetong... This has all been done before in Toyota's history... people forgot... like back then they'll fix the bugs 😉

3 previous used Camry's starting in 1991. Minor problems with all of them except my 2007 which I put new rings in over a weekend. Still kind of minor for me because we could still work on cars without dealer involvement back then. It had just over 30k miles when I bought it cheap because oil burning. I didn't know Toyota made a bad engine back then. All three of them went went over 200k miles before replacing them. Then come my new 2020. It was the biggest piece of junk of any new car I've ever owned. Not much of anything worked right. 8-speed transmission junk. Engine smelled like hot antifreeze. Speedometer problems. Gas gauge problems. Cruise control problems. Car slammed on the brakes on the highway for no reason. I thought it was a lemon and tried to return it. I should have stood my ground. I dumped the most annoying car I've ever owned before its second oil change and Toyota's attitude towards all the problems with that car ruined a 30 year trust of their products. By saying new Toyota's is just as good as the old ones is very misleading. If you added up all the complaints from the 90's t0 2017 it didn't come close to the complaints in just 2018 alone. Toyota knew they put out tens of thousands of bad 2.5's and left it up to the customer to find. That was after putting the pistons in the same engine. Some of the companies you listed are owned by Toyota so by saying they just put on the parts they are given is also misleading. They are Toyota made parts.

@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD I'd be happy if it were a lemon. Toyota must have put out multi thousands of those lemons after looking up the problems that kept popping up every month. I'm disappointed with Toyota's attitude if it were a lemon. Saying all the problems with the car is normal for the 2018 and up isn't a fix. A dealer mechanic told me there were lots of complaints and he wouldn't be buying one until the problems are worked out. Evidently, the two years I waited wasn't enough. the cars got worse after knowingly putting in bad engines. Again. Toyota didn't do a recall to inspect the engines, they left it up for the customers to find the problem. Like they're doing the Tundra's. The new Tacoma's made in Mexico has the same 8-speed transmission Toyota had to sued over to do something about. Toyota used to test to the end to find the problems. Toyota become a true American made car by putting out junk to let the service bulletins fix over time.

NOPE, and the parts are all on back backorder and expensive!

Im a gx owner, and honestly i picked a v8 gx over the new 550 or the new landcruiser simply because of the issues the new v6s have. Toyota can stumble. They are currently making a poor decision to try to balance emissions with reliability. It should always be reliability first.
