My father and I both purchased a 2025 Toyota Tacoma SR5 2WD double cab last year brand new from different dealerships, both were in FL. My father was driving his new Tacoma with adaptive cruise control engaged, this was on an interstate, and the vehicle in front of him moved to the left lane next to him and started braking and this caused his vehicle to start braking extremely hard with no vehicles in front of him (he was driving about 55mph when this happened). He said this has happened to him before. I was in the vehicle with him when this happened. When I was driving from his home in GA a few days later, back to my home in FL, I was on the interstate ([XXX]) with the adaptive cruise control engaged and the exact same thing happened with my truck. A semi truck in front of me moved into the lane to the right and started braking. This caused my vehicle to start braking extremely hard with no vehicles in front of me. Had a vehicle been behind me, this could have caused me to be rear-end...

I went to open my drivers side door to get out, and the handle just flopped around and didnt open the door. Driver side door opener handle doesn't work. Have to roll down driver side window with truck engine on and lift outside door handle to open driver door. In case of emergency, and no power in truck, I would not be able to get out of my drivers side door.

Front passenger door handle broke under normal use exiting truck resulting in inability to open door from inside, entrapping occupant. Warranty claim filed with Toyota dealership. Dealer service advisor stated this is a common failure on Gen 4.Tacomas, and Tundras. Part is on backorder. Service advisor stated backlog is large and no time estimate can be given when the repair can be made. This can result in entrapment in an accident if side windows lose power to roll down if capable of opening door from, or crawl in rear and exit through rear doors if child locks are not engaged. Recall is warranted.
