Thats crazy, really considering cancel my order. Between the qc hold with no answer and everything im reading, wondering how much more of a headache Will this be once all the other little things start popping on that we don't know about.

I’ve had a similar thought. My delivery was scheduled for end of June. Once the QC Hold is released it will be a 4 moth (or less) wait until the 2026 changes are available.

Interesting. Seems to be only affecting trucks going Mid-Atlantic and New England areas, but not all trucks going to those regions.

That's very interesting data. It doesn't include Southeast

Yeah, I'm starting to think Toyota released this one too soon. I have an estimate of mid june now, for mine, if they push it beyond that, I'll just cancel the sale, and start looking for something else

I was really looking forward to this, Love the look, love the inside, love the whole package.

But communication is key here, they're hiding something and that's never a good thing, especially for $60K+

Yea definitely dropping the ball on this, a little communication goes a long way.

At least you have an estimate. I put a deposit down on a Limited 4WD in early March and to this date the dealer has no idea when they will get an allocation for one. I live in the south and apparently Toyota is in no hurry to send 4WD Limiteds down here and now they're on hold to make it even worse. So I put down a deposit on a Honda Passport Trailsport Elite which is similarly equipped as a 4R Limited. The Honda dealer already has one in the color I want allocated to them with a build date in the last week of June. It should be delivered in early July, 4 months since this journey started.

Since I wanted a Limited, which isn't focused on off roading, the Passport was an obvious consideration. In all honesty if I was waiting for an Off Road or TRD I'm not sure what I would do. The Bronco and Wrangler are competitive but they don't have the same daily driver comfort as a 4R.

I have no complaints about my dealer, they've been great, but the lack of communication from Toyota is unacceptable. They could at least let the dealers know what's going on so they can inform the folks like us that put money down for one. My salesman seems just as frustrated with this whole process as I am. When I called him about getting my deposit back he didn't even put up a fight.

Honestly, everything else about the truck is nice - even the new powertrain. I just wish they would acknowledge the issues, instead of telling me nothing is wrong.

However, after reading all of these reports about the air dam, I think I should take mine off before either it or some screws become a projectile.

On youtube, I see videos that are 1 or 2 days old of people taking delivery of their 4Runners... Soooo... maybe they're starting to let them out of the ports... (Or it took them a while to post their videos, and they were PRE-Quality Control check)... I'm hoping it's the former rather than the latter...

Everyone considering waiting should realize at some point very soon the tariffs are going to kick in and raise prices. I have a PRO reserved for mid July arrival that I am concerned will go up in price. The brake issue will get sorted out either now or later under warranty.

This was posted in Facebook from an anonymous person regarding the QC Holds:

For those that are part of the QC Hold / Stop Sale waiting for their vehicles to come in:

The hold is due to an issue with the front spoiler. The estimated completion date is June 14th.

Disclosure: I am a Toyota employee also anxiously awaiting my TRD ORP. I am not acting in any way, shape, or form to be speaking on behalf of Toyota. This is information I was told today and wanted to share.

i heard the same, parts falling off and brake squeal causing the QC hold currently.

Roach011 · May 27, 2025

For the record - My TRD ORP is in Texas and heading to OK, it is also on hold. It is NOT just the east coast as some are suggesting. It is across the board for vehicles that are currently on the ground in the states as far as I can surmise.

from what I have been told by my Toyota Dealer, Toyota will be "eating the cost of any tariff" and "not" passing it to the consumers.

Google it, the North American CEO has hinted otherwise.

I read an article stating Toyota is planning on eating the tariff "at first". But I also saw an interview with the American COO, that states at some point (End of June Maybe) they'll have to increase the price... So, both you guys are right in a way... I just don't know how long Toyota plans on eating the tariffs, my guess, is they'll do so until the majority of competitor increased their prices.

Saw the same interview and he didn't want to say it at first but said all the companies will be increasing by June/July he thought. So hopefully if ours are already here they will be fine and the 26 models will be getting the increase.
