I do not trust this freaking camera on my windshield

I have alot to learn about my 2020 trd and noticed a camera mounted on the windshield. I thought the square sensor was the only sensor for the TSS that I was forced to buy. I suppose the camera is part of the system? Collision avoidance? I dont trust corporate and I know it is being recorded. Have any of you disabled it? Like disconnected the wires going to it?

No one tell him that his car has an event recorder.

Use some of the foil from your hat to cover it up.

Yes I hear you. I just bought a 2020 also and finding how to turn off the nanny controls is a new adventure.

You should be able to opt out of it.

Personally, I have a boring life and no one cares. Although, that's no excuse to track my behavior.

It's not unreal, you signed the papers stating all of this.

If you think that your car is in any way recording video I urge you to look at all the manufacturers who have tried to put dash cams into the cars from the factory. There's a reason they don't exist, it's because they're not allowed.

It does record. There’s a paragraph on the toyota site that says it. If I’m bored tomorrow I’ll go find it.

Corvettes since 2014 have a video recording front camera.

Teslas record from multiple cameras around the car.

Many more examples. It’s certainly not illegal.

Yeah, I was about to say. Tesla is the first one that comes to mind.

I signed what? I wanted a new 4runner, that's all. A new suv to go cross country. I never asked for this crap nor did the dealer tell me. Why do I have to tell Toyota NO when they should be asking ME for permission?
I called HQ last night and they deactivated connected services and I am going to a dealer soon to get the system completely deactivated, I am glad there is a TSB for that. It is weird some people do not mind being recorded and profited off of. I am going to install a remote start as well, not downloading their app.

Why not buy a 2019 and save some money? Same vehicle, without the nanny stuff, and more options for front bumper upgrades.

I couldn't find a new 2019 leftover. So I bought the 2020.

Keep in mind if you do deactivate all the safety features you will lose cruise control, lane keep assist and pre collision.

They didn't tell you about the TSS (toyota safety sense) system when you were buying the truck? I call BS on that
