The 2024 Tacoma has a recall out for the screen because it blacks out. We took it to the dealer to remedy this recall, even though we were not experiencing symptoms associated with the recall. After they did the update, our screen blacks out and the Bluetooth does not work. Our screen is blacking out and our Bluetooth does not work after the Toyota dealership allegedly fixed the recall.

The factory Heads Up Display (HUD) on my 2024 Toyota Tacoma Limited (VIN: [XXX] ) intermittently resets its motorized vertical position to the fully raised/home position, most often triggered when unlocking the vehicle and opening the driver door. The HUD panel actuates upward without input, partially removing projected speed, navigation, and driver-assist data from the driver's sightline. The component is available for inspection. Safety risk: The displacement is unpredictable and intermittent. A driver relying on the HUD for speed or warning information may not notice the shift until already in motion, creating a distraction hazard. Dealer confirmation: Three visits to Envision Toyota of [XXX] . RO #XXX (11/30/2024, 2,259 mi) — FTS contacted, could not duplicate, no TSB found, no repair. RO #XXX (03/03/2026, 15,039 mi) — noted as 3rd visit for same concern. Toyota Technical Assistance Center contacted; TAC Case #XXX opened. Toyota's documented response: condition acknowledged, no repair procedure available, concern under investigation. Manufacturer inspection: Yes — Toyota TAC has formally acknowledged the defect via the above case number. Warning lamps/messages: None. No warning indicators accompany the reset. First observed shortly after delivery (September 2024). INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I am reporting a safety issue with my 2024 Toyota Tacoma regarding Recall 25V595 / 25TA08 (Blank Instrument Cluster Display). Multiple authorized dealers have refused to perform the repair, claiming that parts are unavailable. This defect prevents me from obtaining commercial insurance and fully utilizing the vehicle for my business needs, as a non-functional speedometer is a major safety hazard. This situation is significantly impacting my work and safe operation of the vehicle.

The multimedia head unit and Apple CarPlay system are malfunctioning. The screen randomly disconnects, goes black, and often fails to connect to iPhones. It shows “Retry,” and sometimes Apple CarPlay will only reconnect through the Bluetooth settings instead of normal wired or wireless CarPlay. Both of my new-generation Tacomas are available for inspection upon request. This issue creates a safety risk because the screen disconnects or goes black while driving, causing loss of navigation, hands-free calling, and vehicle information. This forces me to look down or try reconnecting the phone while the vehicle is in motion, which increases the risk of distraction and a possible accident. I have taken both of my Tacomas to Toyota for inspection, but the dealer was unable to reproduce the problem. The issue happens repeatedly during normal driving and occurs on multiple iPhones, so it is not a phone-specific issue. The vehicles have only been inspected by Toyota at the dealership level. No inspections have been done by the manufacturer, police, or insurance. The problem is ongoing and the vehicles are available for inspection at any time. The symptoms include the screen showing “Retry,” disconnecting without warning, going completely black, switching to Bluetooth-only connection, and failing to recognize iPhones at startup. These issues appear randomly on different days and with multiple iPhones. No other vehicle warning lights were present.
