My 18 runner has had one perplexing issue, went cold out (below 50) the radio controls won’t work, once the car warms up all is well
Dealer is aware of the issue but Toyota won’t replace it unless they observe it
Will video next time it’s cool out

2018 ORP. No *real* issues except for:
1. The typical dealer routine service mishaps.
2. Tonneau (cargo) cover spring broke; got a free replacement.

2017 SR5-

1 issue- the driver seat clicks when stopping or starting from a stop.. it only does it when it's all the way back.. since I'm 6'5" I like it back all the way.. the dealer replaced the entire lower seat assembly and it was fixed for about a week and it started again.. so now I just live with it.. sounds like the seat bracket loosens up just a tiny bit.. I can literally move it forward an 1/8" and it stops..

Also another minor annoyance is that sometimes it's a pain to get it into 4wd without stopping, backing up etc.. I'm hoping the more I use it the smoother it will engage.

Other than those minor things it's been bullet proof.. my favorite rig I have had by a long shot!

I only smell it when I park it in the garage and assuming because I'm in an enclosed area I can smell it.

Unsolved mystery.
Common issue. No one seems to have figured it out, but most point to the rubber exhaust hangers as the source, which is why it seems to come from the right rear after hard or high speed driving.

My 2012 does it too, but only if I beat on it hard.
