criticalVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
Filed: Aug 2022

Your 4Runner's adaptive cruise control is automatically braking when it detects vehicles to the side of you, not just ahead, which can catch following drivers off guard and create a collision risk. This has happened at speeds between 30-65 MPH, and even after a dealership adjusted the forward camera system, your vehicle still braked unexpectedly on an empty road. The issue persists despite multiple service attempts, and you're awaiting a response from Toyota Corporate.

highVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
Filed: Jan 2026

Your forward collision avoidance system has been malfunctioning—it beeped and told you to contact Toyota even when nothing was in front of you, and later your cruise control and lane assist stopped working entirely. When you took it to the dealer for diagnosis, they couldn't identify the root cause and quoted $1,500 just to figure out what's wrong. This is frustrating since you chose this vehicle specifically for these safety features, which are now unavailable.
