Quality issues and ill-thought-out details afflict the TRD Pro.

" Today, Toyota's big pickup rides on the same platform as the also-redesigned Sequoia and not-for-America Land Cruiser.

Toyota's toughest Tundra also includes Toyota's enormous 14.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The display is mounted high on the dash, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard. We like the large font, colorful interface, and Google Assistant integration, even if the system has no home screen where one might, say, display both navigation and music, and lacks high levels of customization.

Most troubling, though, were multiple quality issues. One editor managed to overheat the transmission, an issue that didn't crop up in any of the other six trucks we ran through the same course. The articulation test elicited concerning metallic clunks and scraping sounds from the undercarriage. Some online digging found forum members who blame the problem on a skidplate that rubs against the frame.

We reached out to Toyota regarding the quality issues. The company has yet to address all of the problems—the door and underbody noises among them—but admits"customers may have faced [infotainment] issues on early models." It also stated it has made various unspecified improvements and enhancements. We will update this story with more information as it's provided to us.Buyers look toward Toyota for exceptional build quality and reliability.
