Deaths

A complaint is an unverified account by the person who filed it, not a finding of fault. One complaint is one ODI number, which is how NHTSA counts them.

A recall is the manufacturer conceding a defect, and the repair is free. Whether one covers your particular car is a question only its VIN can answer, because a campaign covers a production range rather than a model year.

This is the year the complaint was filed, not the year the failure happened. The range runs from 2024 to 2026, the last of them a part year, which is why its column is drawn faint.

Crash test ratings

NHTSA New Car Assessment Program

NHTSA has not crash tested the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser Hybrid. Its New Car Assessment Program tests a selection of each year's vehicles and does not reach motorcycles, heavy trucks, motorhomes or most low-volume models, so an absence here says nothing about how the vehicle would perform. It is not a low score.

What owners have reported about this vehicle is below, and it is a different question: a crash test measures what happens to the people inside in a controlled impact, while a complaint records what broke during ordinary use.

In owners’ own words

Quoted from the complaint file

Quoted from NHTSA's complaint file. These are unverified accounts by the people who filed them, not findings of fault.

SERVICE BRAKES
Hitch-mounted bike rack triggers false PKSB (Parking Support Brake) auto-braking when reversing. All four tires skid, bikes experience tremendous torque on the rack, and cargo inside the vehicle shifts heavily. No actual obstacle present. Tow/haul mode does not reliably prevent it. This is a safety defect. Uncommanded braking can cause rear-end collisions. Owner is located in the United States. Multiple Land Cruiser forum owners report the same issue with hitch-mounted bike racks and false auto-braking.

NHTSA complaint 11767320. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Fog Lights (Rigid Industries Version) significantly shake during normal street driving conditions. Any minor bumps on the road cause a shudder like movement from the fog lights that is distracting while driving and potentially blinding to oncoming drivers as the lights flash up and down. Vehicle was taken to Beaver Toyota and inspected for this concern, the technician inspected the fog lights and stated that there was nothing wrong. The vibration / shake from the fog lights is well documented as a concern in online forums, however, everyone seems to get the same response from Toyota. It seems other Land Cruiser owners with the same fog light package have no issues with shake while others

Other/I am not sure
I purchased a Maxi-Cosi Peri 180 infant car seat and discovered what I believe may be a defect in the carrier-to-base locking mechanism. When the infant carrier is installed in the base and appears to be fully latched, the rear of the carrier can lift out of its locking slot with gentle upward pressure without using the release handle. The front of the carrier remains attached, but the rear partially disengages from the base. The child’s safety may be put at risk because the carrier does not appear to remain fully secured to the base during normal handling. I am concerned that if the rear of the carrier can partially disengage this easily, it could affect the seat’s performance during

NHTSA complaint 11751829. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
The fuel line clip of the Land Cruiser got disconnected and started leaking gasoline while the engine was running. I had the car towed to Hammer Toyota and they had us pay for the hose to be reconnected. I’ve searched online and seen people have similar incidents, where the clip of the fuel line gets easily disconnected when driving over puddles. This happened as a defect, as no one had spent any time working under the car aside from the toyota dealership. I believe a similar issue has happened with the 6th gen 4Runner and a remedy was issued.

If this is your car and a dealer keeps failing to fix it, your state's lemon law may require the manufacturer to replace it or buy it back. How many repair attempts it takes, and how long you have to file, is set by the state you bought in and by nothing on this page.

Where these numbers come from

A complaint is one owner's account and has not been verified by NHTSA or by us. A vehicle with more complaints is not necessarily worse: models that sold in larger numbers collect more of them. How this is counted.
