When using the cruise control and lane keeping system the truck will jerk into oncoming traffic and try to swerve off to turning lanes. I took it to Toyota and they couldn't find any problem. no warning lights or any indication of a problem shows on the dash. At this point the system is unusable.

What owners say
Toyota Tundra safety sense 2.5 package (pre-collision warning, lane keeping assist, RSA, etc.) disabled while vehicle was in motion.
I previously reported the safety issue truck pulls to the right after roughly 20 alignments. I leave the keep lane assist off because it exacerbates the safety issue. Recently, while trying to self diagnose the problem, I turned on the system before using an on ramp to I820. While accelerating on the on ram, the keep lane assist caused the truck to swerve left and then right. I immediately turned off the feature and the symptom stopped. This is a serious safety issue and can can injury and harm to the public.
Advanced driving system - Truck with leave a lane unprovoked and will fight you to recover manually. I have another Toyota with the same system (2024 Grand Highlander) and it works perfect. Not confirmed by dealer yet. It will be next week. Not inspected yet. Automatic lane centering just stops working, display changes to "not tracking'. Blue lines disappear on display. Truck has done this since new. I was very disappointed when I first used it since I expected it to work like our Highlander.
When driving the lane assist system will bounce me back and forth between the lane lines.
While driving the lane warning and lane assist will allow the vehicle to cross the lane lines and go off the road or into another lane. now warnings.
The contact owns a 2025 Toyota Tundra. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed with the Lane Keep Assist feature activated, the vehicle steered to the right, leaving the lane, and entering oncoming traffic. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who replaced the radiator and adjusted the alignment, but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to a second dealer, AutoNation Toyota Winter Park (225 N Semoran Blvd, Winter Park, FL 32792), who performed a second alignment and repaired the toe links; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.
I have so many problems with my truck and the surging engine as well as squealing brakes, lane assist is disabled but comes on and jerks the truck out of my lane and it's impossible to steer almost causing me to crash numeroys times. Every time I try to get the engine replaced which I've been waiting over a year and I was in Phase 2 and every Toyota dealership tells me something different. I can't even sell this truck privately because it needs a new engine. I have 25,300 miles as of today and I've had it in the shop so many times and they say they can't find anything wrong with it. The headliner fell down onto my head and took it in for service and I got it back worse because they broke all the clips that hold the interior headliner in place and it's hanging down. Every time I bring it in for something they tell me the parts are not available but what they're doing is trying to make me run out of my warranty which is in 2 months. They're trying to sell me an extended warranty but they can't even fix anything that's under warranty right now. I really need your help here because there's so many other issues that I haven't even gone over. Everything is misaligned on this truck and they can't fix it my rear passenger door never latched correctly and they don't know what to do they just give it back to me the same way and I have small children that sit back there but they claim they don't know how to fix it.
Radar system and traction control shuts off during normal operation and requires vehicle to be pulled over and turned off then back on to regain control. This causea a loss of forward collision warning, brake assistance, traction control, and lane departure assistance
Hesitation from a stop. Vehicle isn’t following pedal input and at times can put me into a side collision. Lane keep assist is dangerous and throws me off the road constantly. At times the lane assist will fight my input at the wheel and pull me off-road and over the lines.
