Toyota is recalling 2022-24 Tundras, Sequoias, and Lexus trucks and SUVs
Toyota is recalling about 280,000 pickup trucks and SUVs in the U.S. to fix a transmission problem that can let the vehicles creep forward while in neutral.
The recall covers certain Toyota Tundra pickups and Lexus LX 600 SUVs from the 2022 through 2024 model years. Also included are 2023 and 2024 Toyota Sequoia SUVs.
Toyota said that certain parts of the vehicles' automatic transmissions may not immediately disengage when shifted into neutral.
Those can transfer some engine power to the wheels, then rolling forward at low speeds on flat surfaces if the brakes aren't applied, increasing the risk of a crash.

It's a software problem. They intend to fix this with a software patch.
That doesn't happen with a stick shift manual mechanical transmission.... someone should tell Toyota
