Issues Continue With My 3rd Gen Toyota Tundra...

[@ryanm5626]

Thank you for keeping it real with your Tundra. I know rattles are minor problems in the grand scheme of things, but it is honestly a deal breaker for me. I can't stand rattles and especially to be having them in in such an expensive vehicle is unacceptable. I would try the inchannel visors if you really want to keep the truck. Selling the truck is an option, but you run the risk of having similar issues with another manufacturer. I wish you the best of luck getting this issue resolved and hopefully Toyota is listening and does something to resolve the issue.

[@Broseph69]

Unfortunately these days unless you are buying an ultra luxury vehicle, Bentley, Lamborghini etc the rattles are always going to be there (there will always be some better than others of course). We live in a world of prices going up and quality going down and that’s across the board. My parents have had two fridges in my almost 31 years on this earth. My wife and I are on our second one and second set of washers and dryers in 5 years lol

[@TRDJon]

Thank you so much. I appreciate your support!

Toyota needs to solve this. Does this mean we are going to start seeing window rattles and other annoying vibrations in other models?

[@sammyjammy6647]

Can anyone say lemon law..

[@Jay-bw3fl]

Thanks for being honest and not being afraid to point this mess out. It’s unacceptable on any new vehicle of any price and it needs to be addressed.

[@srandyt2]

Ask them to put the acoustic glass in it to see if it quiets down. I know it is an expense they may not want to incur, but if it helps them solve a model-wide problem, they may consider it.

[@sclems4]

I think you are right about the channel/acoustic glass aspect. In the short term go for some in channel wind deflectors.

[@ian0841]

Jon, you are a man after my own heart. I love Toyota but could not tolerate that window rattle. This is the exact reason why I have other Toyota/Lexus vehicles but I still have not pulled the trigger on a new Tundra because I am fearful of what I will get. I have never felt like this with any other Toyota/Lexus vehicle before. Keep up the great, honest content!

[@jsnow6925]

A lot of it too, is just waiting a few years to buy when a new model comes out so most of the kinks are worked out

[@levispanogle3637]

Me and a few buddies have the same truck and never had any issues with it.

Yes it’s on my driver side. It’s so annoying and Toyota Brand Center doesn’t want to own up.

[@gampy1647]

After dealing with the front doors rattling on my 2022 Tundra 1794 edition for a year and a half, and over 35,000 miles, I’m trading mine in on a 5th gen 4Runner. The doors were adjusted and “reshaped” a couple of times on my Tundra, but they keep rattling shortly after the “repairs”. My thigh extender on the driver seat has been repaired at least 3 times, and keeps failing. I love the power train (non-hybrid) in my truck, and am confident in it, but these freaking door and seat issues are so annoying! I feel your pain, Jon! I hate to get rid of my Tundra, but this is ridiculous! I really hope they fix these issues on future models. Maybe the aluminum front doors were not such a good idea? I would trade it in on a new Tundra, but the prices have increased a bit since I bought mine, and the fact that you could hear the window rattle slightly in a new Tundra is not very encouraging at this price point. I’m a Toyota fanboy too, but it’s time to move on from this truck.

[@TRDJon]

I am really starting to lean that way, but I want it fixed at the same time. I'd feel super bad selling another truck with rattles. The previous buyer didn't mind and I was 100% transparent with him. But that being said, 2-3 people wanted my last truck but didn't end up buying because of the windows. So now for me, it hinders my future sale too which is complete BS.

[@gampy1647]

I hope it all goes well for you Jon. I’ll let the dealership handle the issues. They’re aware of it.

[@bedlamfirm3285]

If the thigh extender you mention is the same as the seat shield that has been known to crack…I just noticed it in my 2022. And it pisses me off. I’ve owned 4 second generation Tundras and loved it due to having no problems. I mean zero. And unfortunately this brand new 2022 I bought in March 2022 has made me so furious. And I only have 18k on it.

[@gampy1647]

@@bedlamfirm3285 I haven’t had an issue with the driver lower seat panel cracking. Mainly the front driver seat extension for more thigh support. It has been repaired at least 3 times. I never had that problem with the thigh support extension on my previous generation Tundras. Not sure why it has been a problem on the 3rd generation Tundra.

[@is6566]

Jon, If you want to sell it, use the in-channel rain screen or whatever fix. After the fix is done be honest with the buyer but if the rattle is not there I am sure most prospective buyers will still be purchasing. At that point is up to them to decide to take the risk but if the problem doesn’t exist at the time, I think most will be willing to buy. Just my 2 cents.

[@DominikKolano]

I had the same issue with mine, took it to the dealer a few times they couldn’t fix it, so what I did I took it apart the whole window frame and cut grommets from old bicycle tube and basically made washers and put them on every bolt and screw that holds the window to the frame and that solved the issue

[@TRDJon]

Inside the window channel?

[@DominikKolano]

I removed every bolt that holds the glass and put rubber washers, that solved it,

[@semosancus5506]

Yeah this sounds about right and also the in channel cushion to put more pressure on it. I wonder how the window sounds if you put the window up into a 2 inch piece of foam. Does it rattle then?

[@michaelmahaffey3201]

Toyota guy here too. I have a few. I wonder if Toyota tweaked the travel so that the window pushed a slight bit tighter to the frame would eliminate that sound. Makes me think the track and hardware was designed with the acoustic glass thickness in mind leaving space after installing a thinner window.

[@ItsLRivera]

I have the same rattle and it sounded like it was coming from the window/dash area, and i was able to figure out on mine, it was the front edge of the headliner where it meets the windshield. Whatever they use on the headliner to adhere it, it starts to come undone.

[@DB-we2wk]

Had the same thing happen in a new Honda Ridgeline 🤦

[@Anonymous-sy2nh]

First, I can't thank you enough for your reviews. I have been patiently waiting for the bugs to get worked out of the new Tundra, but your videos have solidified my decision to look at another brand. I, too, am a Toyota loyalist, but the rattles are completely unacceptable. What is more frustrating is that you KNOW the Toyota folks are watching these videos and are aware of the issue, yet they remain silent. Thank you for being honest in your reviews. Now my conundrum: 1.) Buy a Tundra with a bulletproof powertrain and deal with mind-blowing rattles and trim issues, or 2.) Buy an F-150 and love the quiet, comfortable ride, but not be able to have quality and long-term reliability on the powertrain (and poorer resale if I need to get rid of a problem truck). I usually keep my vehicles 15 years or more if they are solid (I still drive a 2005 Sequoia with the 4.7 engine), so I REALLY wanted the Tundra. You are the only hope for Toyota to fix this issue. It is amazing that you and Esterdahl cannot get the new chief engineer Jay Sackett to answer the questions about the rattles (and somewhat sad that Esterdahl did not press him on the issue - it was a softball interview).

[@TRDJon]

Thanks man! I'm calling corporate Monday. I'm not looking for a celebrity treatment, but at the same time, it clearly isn't just me. 20+ comments already in this video of people having the same issues. It's pathetic. I hope you find the right vehicle man!

[@luisnatera7935]

Hello Jon, Thank you for all hard work making videos for new 3G Tundras, I learned a lot stuff from you. In my case, I owned 2023 Limited Hybrid 4x4 with 5000 Miles on the road no rattles noise so far in any window, this is my 4th Tundra that I owned, I know very well all little problems since 2007 but I never heard of this . Why this problem is happen again?, in your previous 22' you have the same problem very weird situation. I hope Toyota or someone, can find the problem quick and solved. You will see that will be something stupid. In another hand if it is possible to make a short video about how the new headlamps from alpharex illuminate the road. There are not videos online talking about this, and I would like to see how this aftermarket lights real work on the road.

[@craiglovelace1753]

Looking to buy my 5th Tundra and am thoroughly disappointed with the issues on 3rd gen. Was about to order 2024 SR5 Crewmax Longbed Magnetic Gray with TRD 3” Lift. At $58,000.00 there shouldn’t be any issues with these trucks after 2 years to fix the issues. Disappointing……may hold onto my 2015 Crewmax SR5 TRD with 220,000 miles and zero issues!

[@scottberdak196]

Sorry to hear about your annoying rattle concern. I'm a retired Toyota/Lexus master diagnostic tech of 35 years and recently my wife's new Toyota Venza company car also has an annoying dash rattle somewhere near the instrument cluster that only happens on particular slightly rough pavement. Unfortunately, there are no roads near me or the dealership to duplicate the noise to locate it. I have been to the dealership 3 times with no luck and have contacted the 1-800 customer care center to document the noise on the record. Seems like something like a different rubber glass run channel strip with a tighter tolerance would possibly address your concern and wouldn't be too difficult for Toyota to produce so dealers can correct all of these Tundra owners concerns and improve CSI!

[@bobdoc3534]

It's just worth a shot in the dark, but try putting some black foam weatherstripping on the top of the window and roll it all the way up and see what happens or stuff some between the top of the door card and the window. Sometimes, the simplest things are the fixes. Good luck!

[@TRDJon]

I did that and worked a little until the foam compressed to much. That's why I'm hoping the inchannel visors may be the fix.

[@eddieBoxer]

Just replace the window, minor issue and he’s selling the truck he’ll take a huge monetary loss. College degree doesn’t mean anything.

Take it to an Auto Glass guy, some of these guys are really good at what they do, and have seen this stuff before. Don't let them try and replace the glass, I'm sure there is a way to beef up the track of the window to stop it.

[@armandoyourpersonaljeweler7558]

The dealership should replace the window and assembly kit with a new one or replace the whole door. Lastly if you cannot get that I’d get rid of it.

I have the same Tundra and not having that issue. I have 45k miles on mine. I have the Tundra Limited 4x4. The only issue I have had is the plastic that covers the controls on the drivers side power seat keeps cracking. The dealer replaced it but it has cracked again. Other than that my Tundra has been perfect. I know a couple of other people with the same Tundra year and not having any issues with the window. Maybe Toyota had an issue on at the plant and didn’t catch on a handle full of them. Great Video as always!

Only way is get a capstone and see how that one is …I know my 22 trd pro tundra does it on both windows at times and yes apply pressure somewhat stops it …the dealership did put new weather seals but still does it …. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@neillnagib3185]

It's the small issues that impact one's perception of quality. My GLS 450 has windshield wipers that chatter maddeningly across the windshield, and Mercedes doesn't care and doesn't have a solution. They've been replaced, the window has been cleaned and stripped, and it's still doing it. There aren't any aftermarket blades either. The service manager told me to use the windshield washer when the blades chatter.

[@OperationValhalla]

Not sure if you will see this message Jon, I have a 2022 tundra platinum that had it on BOTH rear windows. I have found (will have to look to find the exact brand) in channel vent visors that stopped the problem all together. Mind you it took about two weeks for everything to settle and start playing nice, but since then It hasn't been an issue. I completely understand your frustration as it's really freaking annoying during long trips. EDIT: I am at 11k miles problem started at right around 5k or so, after channel vents I've been 3k miles free of window rattles.

Literally makes me not want to drive the truck on a trip. It’s sad. I just got in channel vents from Goodyear. I’ll be installing them.

Hey Jon, I have a 23 Limited and have the same issue in all four side windows, driver’s window is the worst. I also have the creaking upper seat. Other rattles include the driver’s A pillar when it’s cold, glove box door and handle, cabin airfilter cover in the glove box, headliner when warm and the center console tray. Other issues are it has a hesitation/surge when the motor is cool, smokes a lot on start up, idle surges at lights, back window lower seal/trim is falling off and lastly the hvac system is terrible for getting good airflow on certain settings.

I had a 21 4R that the passenger headrest would rattle pretty badly. Also a clicking right by my ear in the B pillar. Went through the same thing you did. Lots of potential fixes with no solution. Beyond frustrating. I will say otherwise the thing was super solid. Wound up selling it mainly because after 2 years I got 3k more than I paid for it from a dealer. But, it was a major turn off. Now I am hesitant with all the new Toyotas coming out. I still have my 13' Tundra for truck duties. It has 93K and has been great! Will be in the market for a Tacoma, LC, or new 6th gen. for a daily. But, all the issues with new vehicles have me thinking back to another 5th gen. I'll be really interested in your upcoming reviews of the new Tacoma and LC. I got time to decide while they still make 5th gens. Sorry you continue to deal with this.

I have a 23 GMC Sierra with very similar noises on the driver side. I was thinking of getting rid of it for a Tundra because it is so frustrating… this is sad to hear. I also have a 2013 LX 570 with 114k miles… no rattles. The thing is so well put together it is crazy.

[@crooked308]

I would keep pushing with the platform. But just an idea you know the rubber door edge guard stuff. The soft rubber C channel stuff I would run that across the top edge of your glass and roll the window up. And go for a drive see if that holds the window centered in the top of the door seal. It would apply downward pressure and side to side perhaps at the same time. Not a permanent fix but a test.

[@TRDJon]

Great idea!

Take a small dish towel on the top of the window and shut it and see if it doesn't fix the issue. If that fixes it Toyota should be able to glue some weather stripping in the channel and fix the rattling.

[@Mosrmosr993]

try wiggling the upper horizontal part of the window channel. I bet it moves. The part is defective. Over time it will also cause laxity in the regulator assembly.

[@lordnaarghul]

For me, the rattling wouldn't bother me because I live on a dirt road and In time everything rattles no matter what vehicle you use, which is why I really wouldn't bother going for too much luxury. I can't tell you what you should do, but you did often make use of it with your real-estate stuff and rattles or no, it'll still remain useful for that unless the powertrain or suspension go belly up. Unless you have something immediately available to replace it, I'd keep it around.

Thanks for the video. I have a 2023 HiHy platinum and around 1000miles my driver side window had a rattle/glass shattering sound, which is only audible when the window is rolled down. It sounded like a rock was stuck in the door panel, rattling/scratching the window. I informed dealer, told them I felt the window sounded like it could shatter. They took the door panel and tried to repiar the issue. This helped a bit but the noise is still present but not as loud. This seems like an assembly line issue related to the acusatic glass. My previous HiHy XLE did not have this issue.

[@omarawad2161]

Hey Jon, I know I have commented on this on a prior video but I wholeheartedly believe that it is not the window itself. The noise you are hearing is the door seal shifting around and creating that noise while the door is closed, mainly the seal that is on the door that makes contact and seals against the metal on the truck. It is the same exact noise that I had on both front doors of my truck. Clean the seal all around with a degreaser and clean the metal where the seal makes contact and then add some lubricant to prevent it from becoming tacky.

[@TheJayGeeDubya]

I’ve had that issue before. The fix for me was adjusting the door latch in the jam. Just needed to be very slightly loosened and moved toward seat and retightened. It makes the door sit tighter and puts just a bit more pressure on glass etc

Hey just a theory here, could it be those tow mirrors? They are bigger than the standard mirrors and perhaps the way the air moves across those bigger mirrors and hits the glass is an issue. Can your dealer test your truck with standard mirrors to see if there is a difference? Love the videos! Keep em coming!

The stock truck they had the same issue with had normal mirrors. My last truck with this issue had normal mirrors as well.

[@cowpokeone2003]

I had a Toyota and a Lincoln where the trunk leaked. Neither brand could figure it out. Living in FL this was unsat with all our rain and the trunk would become a swimming pool! As an engineer I decided to fix it myself. It turned out the plastic flap that covered the gap where the water would drain on either side of the trunk wasn’t long enough so the water could drain into the trunk. So a bit of caulk solved the problem. So sad neither Toyota nor Lincoln could figure it out. 🤦🏼‍♂🤦‍♂

[@sm_flys]

Wow, didn't know you were having this problem too. We bought ours earlier this month on Veterans Day. Only 1,100 miles. Words cannot describe how pissed I am. It started with the passenger side, and unfortunately for me, I'm starting to hear it on the driver side too. It seems like my dealership didn't even care, they had it for 6 hours then called me to come pick it up after failing to find a fix. My solution in the mean time is shoving some cardboard strips along the window jam. It's crazy to say it, but my 20 year old 4Runner is built better than this thing, or at least that's what it seems. I purposefully spent my money with Toyota instead of another company to avoid this stuff. I love Toyota, but they've got to do better.

I’ve got both the sequoia and the tundra both limited hybrid and they have a really annoying vibration felt in the steering wheel, seat and gas pedal. The more I research the more post I find about this vibration. I’ve never been so disappointed in purchasing a Toyota.

[@Stu.D]

Frustrating man, I actually have mine at dealer for same thing (passenger too) this weekend so will keep you posted. I don’t remember it being nearly as bad but did have it happen to my drivers side first and they opened panel and tightened everything down and it made it better for most part so hoping they can do same on this one.

[@Stu.D]

My wife has had a 2023 sequoia for about 9 months now and not even slight sign of problem on either windows, did yours have any? Seems weird since they are literally same truck..

[@TRDJon]

Our sequoia didn’t no. We only had 3400 miles on it though.

[@TRDJon]

Let me know man!

[@TimNichols-e9x]

I have a 2022 Tundra Patinum LB, basically same truck as yours (same colour and trim) and both front doors make rubbing/rattling noises. It started shortly after I got the truck and it’s been looked at by 2 dealers multiple times now and no solution. The window run channel on the driver side was replaced and it made no difference. Both door seals have been changed and it actually made the issue worse on the driver side. Both dealers said they would escalate this to Toyota engineering but it seems to have stalled out and my frustration level is growing. I chose to buy the Tundra because of Toyota’s reputation for building quality vehicles. I do like the truck’s look and features and it has plenty of tow power, however it does get very thirsty with a 7,000 lb trailer attached. I’m into this truck for well over $75K and waited many months for it to arrive, so this noise issue has been very disappointing and I’m also considering selling it. I hope your relationship with Toyota helps resolve your noise issues and I’d like to know if they find a fix. Lately I’ve been hearing radio and TV ads for Toyota trucks playing up their reputation for quality and every time I hear it I get more pissed off. Well, back to the dealer again I guess!

[@Lexusgx550]

My 2019 trd off road Tacoma. driver window when open half way it rattles. Idk Jon seems Toyota trucks and SUV’s quality is less than Japan built suvs and trucks. This is why I want my next ride to be built in Japan not in Mexico. Sucks

[@daytrading5456]

The Tundra is built in Texas... so worse than Japan and Mexico.

[@TRDJon]

Seems that way. My 2022 Tacoma is great!

[@mdoneg]

I sold my 23’ Platinum after identifying the initial quality issues just like yours. I’m now driving a 21’ F150 King Ranch that has 60k on it and has zero issues that I got a smokin deal on. I’m a huge Toyota fanboy as well (we have 3 others), however they’ve just missed the mark on the Tundra all together. It’s frustrating.

[@Cbarrett94]

Fit and finish isn’t quite as good as the outgoing generation, but that being said, the new tundra is overall a much better driving truck, and in the end is more capable by all metrics. That being said, Toyota will continue to improve it as they always do. This tundra will be around for a long time most likely like the last one, so Toyota will get the kinks worked out.

[@TRDJon]

Oh 100% way better driving. For sure

[@johnb1658]

This would seriously drive me crazy! Many years back I had a 98 Chevy blazer that was the biggest rattle trap ever manufactured! Nothing ruins the driving experience more than rattling or creaking noises! Hopefully they release an updated trim piece to tighten the window up.

[@BDevi0us]

Imagine being a normal customer that doesn't have a youtube channel like Jon and works close with Toyota? If he can't get it fixed good luck for us normal folk. These new Tundras are overpriced and made cheaply with flimsy aluminum body panels along with cheap plastic inside and out. Vote with your dollars and make this unacceptable. Coming from a 3rd gen Toyota Tacoma Trdpro owner. Great video Jon, I appreciate the honesty and transparency. 👊

[@TRDJon]

Thanks for watching man! I truly appreciate it

[@jmora619]

I have never experienced the rattle with my 1794… but I put in the in channel visors 2months into ownership and since watched your video… I went out for a drive and didn’t experience anything… I have the ones from Amazon so it may be worth the try… it might just out enough pressure to hold the window in place when closed

[@bobbyjames9827]

Great content Jon! Sorry that this is happening. More reasons to get excited for the new Tacoma! Let’s hope the new Tacoma doesn’t have any issues lol

[@TRDJon]

You and me both!

[@boarder247]

I have seen a lot of people saying they have this issue but the 5 guys I know with the new tundra, none of then have it. Wild. Hope something comes up for a fix.

[@howardklatsky5016]

Sometimes its the little things that drive you crazy. Its a nice looking truck but if it's annoying time to go. Bye bye truck!

[@TRDJon]

It’s beyond annoying at this point man.

[@madatu247]

My 22 platinum with tow mirror does the same thing, super annoying. My dealer said they couldn't recreate the noise but when I check the odometer when I left the hadn't even put 1 km on it... I stuck little cylinder shaped foam piece under the strip which stopped the noise for a time but it came back, and it is way worse when it gets cold.

[@TRDJon]

Yea now that it is cold it is horrible. Take it to a new dealer and drive with them if possible.

[@highplainsdrifter9849]

Trade it in when the new Tacoma comes available. It will have a 5 or 6ft. bed as an option.

[@TRDJon]

Tbh may be the play. But the crappy thing is is that I don't want to put that bad karma onto somebody else and them have a crappy truck with a crappy window with no fix.

[@jacobziegler7102]

I drove my 2023 platinum for 9 months and 26k miles and never ran into this issue. Very sorry to hear. Sold that truck tho due to other issues and concerns. lol

[@Kazewarrior]

Just let the domestics have this one... they do full sizes the best. Sell it and get the new Tacoma as fast as possible

[@davidmann2988]

No they don’t. Can’t keep transmissions or timing chains in them.

[@BadDriversOfMass]

My father has a 23 Tundra with 10k miles, and while I like it there's plenty of little issues with it. The android auto is very buggy and theres been a few little things like an error with the active front spoiler. My 2023 Tacoma that has 25k miles, and not easy miles at that, is absolutely flawless. There seems tk be an issue with newly designed vehicles across the board. I worked at a Chevy dealer for a while and now work at a CDJR store and I can safely say the Tundra is still a more reliable truck than any other full sized on the market, but theyre not like the Tacoma, 4Runner, or 2nd Gen Tundra were.

[@williamm7429]

Hey, I fixed a similar rattle. Noise was coming from white plastic piece on top of passenger side a-pillar, behind headliner… try adding something me rubber window sealer/ dumb dumb or foam to where the white plastic piece mounts to the body… it worked for me 🤞

[@BBall-is-life]

Do you have any photos of this work?

[@TRDJon]

Not sure if it is the headliner cuz when I put pressure on the door itself, it goes away. Thoughts?

[@williamm7429]

Was actually the top of interior plastic A pillar, there’s a cone shaped white plastic piece where the pillar clips into the body. I think the door/window vibration is normal but it transfers the vibration into the pillar/white plastic piece. That’s why when you push on the glass the noise goes away, you are limiting the vibration to problem area. Wish I had some pictures but a little rubber window sealant around that white plastic cone fix the noise for me. Not 100% if your noise is the same but it’s worth a shot

[@SaltyDog711]

I don’t have the window issue yet but I have the crunchy seats. I’m hoping they will fix it when it goes in next month for the TRD lift.

[@aznjeep1]

SO annoying.. both my doors/windows do it.. some days are worse than others. It's like when the window is closed all the way, it's just not making a solid/hard enough contact into the rubber/silicon channel along the top side. One we apply pressure on the glass (towards the top), it goes away.. or if we push hard on the black rubber/silicon to make pressure against the glass. Dealer says "they can't duplicate it".. will try another dealer soon. (This Tundra is a replacement for a 2014 Sierra I had, and it didn't have any rattles after all that time... just 2 failed instances of the lifters.. so it had to go.)

[@TRDJon]

So annoying. I luckily got to drive with my dealer after they said they couldn't dupe it. I was not walking away lol

[@patrickjames3321]

I have the same issue with my 21 Tacoma, every rattles inside after 28k miles, completely stock. A lot of squeaky noises from the outside too

[@TRDJon]

Really??

[@patrickjames3321]

@@TRDJon yeah, at first it was dead silent, nothing would sound, then it started with the leaf springs, then the front end, then the interior, a lot in the passenger side, a little on the driver. And I’ve taken so much care of this truck, I’ve been obsessed now to the point that I don’t care anymore, the more I take care of it, the shittier it gets

Unacceptable, sorry to hear. Toyota better get it together.

[@masterbuiltdesigns6734]

My '23 Tundra had window rattles, wind leak noise, dead throttle (2-3 second throttle delay at random), dash screen would reset itself every 10-15 mins and would not connect to any of the 5 phones tested, heater fan would change speed at random, smell of antifreeze from the heater, and more. It was just an annoince and nothing was fixed. I went back to my previous gen Tundra for a couple of month and now drive a '23 GMC Sierra 1500 3.0 diesel which I love.

[@alanmaestu1218]

Quality control blows at the Texas plant, I have driver seat issues and not properly installed rear window weather strip. For the price I feel you

[@MyBeardBetter]

2022 platinum driver here, no issues with any windows or things rattling, crunching, etc.

[@suzukikawasaki5165]

What you have to do is bend the top of the door frame in. I used to do it all the time when I was a dealership wrench to fix wind noise. Open door. Put knee in middle of door panel, grab to of window frame and pull in. I It's a tollernce issue

[@bajaoverland9286]

Glad i have seen this video. Ive been looking at the new tundras but i dont think i could put up with this

[@glengoodwin7860]

Jon , if you want something that’s quality and built with the roughest terrain In mind I’d suggest a lx570 or lx600. I’ve owned 3 Lexus lx’s and a TON of other Toyotas: Tacoma ( all gens ) ‘15 4R , 22 4R ,’18 tundra and ‘19 Tacoma. I ALWAYS end up going back to the Lexus lx for one simple reason…. BUILD QUALITY. That last ‘19 Tacoma I had was absolutely hideous. 30k miles and taken very well care of. Transmission was stuttering , exhaust was super loud , interior pieces rattling and a crazy ( normal ) rear end vibration when braking. Test drove tons of the new Tacomas and they all had the rear end resonance braking issue. Bottom line , if you’re frustrated with the quality like I am on almost all vehicles then I’d say it’s safe to at least go test drive a Landcruiser of lx570 , they’re smooth as glass and no funny stuff ! I’m about to do a new ( owner review ) video of my ‘19 lx570 on my channel. Check it out.

[@williamrieger9904]

Like you said. I’ll bet the let side glass or weatherstripping was made ever so slightly thinner during manufacturing

[@ItsLRivera]

I made a quick short of the rattle in my truck, sounds about the same. I was able to locate the issue.

[@TRDJon]

What was it?

You wanna know what is funny about this? This same issue happened with our 2019 Toyota Highlander, but it was the door on the driver’s side. We replicated the noise with the dealership in three different Highlanders that year. They finally tore the door apart and put foam padding all in the door. That window still rattled so we gave it back to Toyota and went with a Lexus RX 350.

[@TRDJon]

Hopefully I can do the same then

[@thestig007]

Maybe they could replace the window with the thicker Capstone glass to take up the extra space?

Try tinting is with a clear tint, might add enough thickness to solve the problem

Man, am I happy that I went with a 23 taco with the mt, picked it up in august, and am already at 13k miles. Absolutely nothing wrong with it other than I have almost worn out the front skid plate.
