Recent reports

“285/65R18 All four tires have accelerated wear on the outside edge at approximately 20k miles while the middle and inside o the tires has about 80% tread left. I believe the tire was not cambered correctly as delivered from the factory settings.”

Filed Jun 2, 2026

“Excessive outer tire wear at 15,000 miles. Dealer advised that alignment was out of spec due to “Michigan roads” but I noticed this at 10,000 miles too and it’s still occurring.”

Filed May 19, 2026

“There rear tailgate does not function. I have it in to Ourismon Toyota Chantilly for the third time. The tailgate does not come down. Issues with the tailgate started a week after I bought it in June 2025. It only has 8500 miles and has been in three times for this issue.”

Filed May 19, 2026

“Bad factory alignment caused OEM tires (Falken Wildpeak A/T, 265/60 R20) to wear prematurely. Tread depth reduced to 3/32 on all 4 tires at 10,500 miles. Clearly a safety risk as no reasonable person would expect new tires to last only 10,000 miles and; therefore, likely not check tread depth presenting significant safety risk in any inclement weather.”
