What annoys you about your truck?

While the time keeping abilities seem fine on my truck, the radio reception is the worst of any vehicle I've ever owned! This is my number one complaint and the only one that truely annoys me.

 

X2. Ever notice that when you apply the brake it somehow effects the radio reception? Weird

 

One thing that drives me nuts in my truck and pretty much every vehicle is how dirt and stuff gets stuck between the creases of plastic interior parts. And of course mpg.

 

My drivers seat in my 21 SR5 still makes that annoying popping noise (creaking now that it's cold in Fl). I am going to try getting it addressed one last time at the dealer for its 15K service. Tired of hearing its the lumbar system.

 

22?

 

Thought this forum went up to 21 only?

 

I see. My mistake. Have a great day.

 

Climate-control related:
In Floor Mode, output is lacking. Able to increase it by closing all the (face) vents... but I shouldn't have to do that...

 

Brakes squeaking first thing in the morning.

 

No problem. You had me looking at my hood in the sun. LOL

 

The Bluetooth interface between my phone and the truck stereo makes be want to smash both devices with a sledgehammer. Specifically in the area of ''auto play". Apps I CLOSED when I got out of bed in the morning will start playing on the stereo the moment I turn the key. Yes, while they are still closed! Apps I have paused will resume playing after I get a phone call, or after I do anything voice-related with any other app. Sometimes apps resume playing just because they feel like it.

Toyota says it's Apple's fault. Apple says it's Toyota's fault. There is no setting on either device to make it stop.

I'd buy a new stereo in a heartbeat if I knew for sure it was this stereo's fault.

 

Remote start not included.

 

AM-FM-CD. They can keep all that other stuff.

 

If I had one complaint is the in cab storage on the Crewmax. Otherwise I love my truck.

 

Minor annoyance, and it's a design thing: the steering wheel seems to be seated too far towards the dash. I wish Toyota had it a bit more forward. Mine is a lowly SR5, so no power tilt/telescopic function, but even at 6'6'' tall I feel like I'm reaching a mile when the seat is comfortably back.

Lately I've been sliding the seat a bit forward for a more comfortable reach.

 

So there is no latch under the column allowing for wheel adjustment?

 

I have a manual 'tilt' latch, but the overall wheel needs to be about 1.5-2'' inches closer.
I've had many cars and trucks in my time, and this tundra just feels odd with the wheel so close to the dash.

 

So, it won't move in and out far enough?

 

There is no 'in or out' adjustment, it's a set position.

 

You didn't say the year model of your Tundra. Mine is a 2015 CM SR5. On my truck, the tilt lock lever under the steering column also releases the telescoping column. Try releasing the tilt lock and pulling the steering wheel toward you before you relocate the column again.
I hope this makes your truck more comfortable for you. At your height the seat jackers may make a positive difference as well.

 

No cluster lighting without having to turn on markers/headlights.

 

I also have a 2020 SR5 and mine goes in and out.

 

Thanks guys, you gave me some hope, but no go. Just went and rechecked and my '20 SR5 has the 'tilt' function, but the wheel doesn't telescope in and out. Might be due to my 'bench seat' equipped model and not the SR5 upgrade package which includes the center console shift.

 

not a damn thing!! 80k strong trouble free miles and reg maintenance ! TRUCK GANG!

 

Holy SHIT! I've been driving my 2016 SR5 for 220,000 miles and you tell me this NOW?? You DICK!!! You dick you dick you DICK!!!

 

I'm sorry about that! I should have told you sooner.

 

All these years, thousands of miles away in Arizona, it has truly been solely your fault. Lol.

 

I noticed you all have 2020/2021 models - have you added aftermarket LED bulbs to the 3rd brake light housing that might be causing interference with the shark fin antenna? I have the old school fender antenna, so I'm not sure how the shark fin handles things compared to mine.

 

I haven’t added anything to mine

 

If only there was a magical book that tells you things about a vehicle you buy.


Nobody take my idea! It'll be worth millions!
