2025 Toyota Tundra acceleration problems

Filed Jun 18, 2026 · Acceleration, Brakes · MO

Toyota Tundra 2025 Limited stalled at highway speeds. The vehicle flashed "Parking Brake Support" message, but dealer says it has to do with an engine failure. Vehicle came to a grinding stop and would only advance in short spurts before dying on the side of the road. I was in the left lane of a major highway during rush hour. Luckily, traffic was behind me, and I was able to limp to the shoulder before traffic arrived. I noticed nothing prior. A loose gas cap may have prompted the system to send failure message. I haven't heard yet why it stalled. But my safety was definitely put at risk, and I was lucky to not be rearended

I own a 2025 Toyota Tundra TRD PRO. Bought in May of 2025. Has around 10,000 miles on odometer. Multiple times since I purchased this vehicle I have tried to accelerate into the flow of traffic from a stop and the truck would barely make it into the roadway and then suddenly lose acceleration leaving me without power when I needed it most. This caused panic and near collision with other vehicles coming towards me. This has happened a few times on a four lane with a turning lane in the middle. This is serious flaw and could end up causing a collision. This is the only vehicle I have ever experienced this problem with. Since I purchased this problem has occurred five or six times on my Tundra and twice it happened to me on my wifes 2025 Toyota 4runner TRD PRO.

Stall or hesitant acceleration which has caused many unsafe situations for me and my family. This happens frequently since the vehicle was purchased new.

Vehicle stalls after stopping often

Unknown. The truck often lags when the accelerator is pressed. Coming from a stop seems to make it worse. It takes 1-2 seconds more than you would expect as normal for the truck to start to move. This gives you enough time to think something is wrong and cover the brake to prevent you from entering an intersection if there is a problem. The result is that you end up halfway into an intersection slower than you expected, possibly causing an accident. It seems like a combination of electronic throttle control lag, and the 10 speed transmission never knowing what gear to select causes the issue.

Throttle lag When I accelerate from a stop, such as at a red light or stop sign, after I gently press down on the gas pedal, there is consistently a 1-2 second delay before the truck accelerates. This can cause potential delays in getting through an intersection, in turning in front of oncoming traffic, and getting going in traffic. This happens consistently since I’ve owned the vehicle since the summer of 2025.

Throttle lag, was stopped at a stop sign and had an opening to go, when I pressed on the gas the truck went as normal and then completely stopped accelerating. By the time it accelerated again it jolted the truck and was narrowly missed by cross traffic.

Throttle lag truck stalls out when you try to go from a stop. It will cause an accident if this is not fixed. Also engines keep blowing up with out the hybrid system your truck will not have any port to get over to a safe spot on the road. Toyota is replacing engines but the ones they are putting in the trucks are the same ones that are failing.

The vehicle does not predictably respond to throttle inputs (if it responds at all), when you come off the brake pedal it will begin rolling at "idle" speed as normal but when you begin to increase throttle input NOTHING will happen for several very important seconds as you roll into an intersection or need the vehicle to accelerate to maneuver. This had happened multiple times before scheduling service appointments. The day BEFORE my appointment while trying to make a right hand turn from EB 13st St in Lemont IL to SB Bell Rd, i had stopped for the red light, verified clearance to make the turn, and began my maneuver. Once I came off the brake pedal the vehicle began to roll into the intersection but as I began to turn the vehicle and try to accelerate though the turn it did not respond WHATSOEVER. I desperately tried to roll my vehicle into the ditch to make space the incoming vehicles to minimize danger, but had no power to do so and was violently T-boned. The vehicle was brought to the dealer for their analysis, the service manager initially claimed "I know exactly what it is" and continued to ask questions that prompted previous knowledge of this issue including what speeds and conditions it will occur at.. two weeks later the vehicle is "ready" and the manager claims the "eprom" had 2 pages of codes in it and that "got rid of the hesitation" I take him for a test drive with me and was able to recreate the issue a few times at which point he said "i understand your frustration with the truck but its a GOOD TRUCK" I drove the truck a few days and continued to experience dangerous and unpredictable delays in throttle response, one of which almost caused me to be rear-ended by a semi while merging from IL-rt83 onto I-55 nb The vehicle has been left behind on a family road trip as it is not safe enough for my family. In hind sight I wish I had the opportunity to submit it to the federal safety agency for examination after the crash rather than than Toyota. PLEASE DO SOMeTHING

Stopped at a stop sign at an intersection. Intersection is 4-way, with only a 2-way stop. After ensuring cross-traffic was clear, initiated a left turn from being stopped at the stop sign. Released the brake pedal and began to accelerate.Truck only accelerated to 5mph, and then began to roll/drift into the intersection with no power. No response from gas pedal. Drifted into intersection and was nearly struck by an oncoming vehicle. Accelerator finally responded, lagged once more when attempting to accelerate quickly to get out of the intersection, and then began responding appropriately. I could have been T-boned by another motorist while drifting without acceleration ability through an intersection. My foot was firmly on the gas pedal, with no response. This was only one of two occurrences of this, the truck has not been serviced by the dealer for this issue. No warning lights were displayed at the time, nor did any illuminate.
