WHat have you all been hearing about this current 6th Gen 4Runner QC hold? Steering Shafts, sqeeky brakes, air dam falling off are all some rumblings I have been hearing online. But I am curious if anyone has heard anything LEGIT from their dealers?

Per Wonderful AI:

No, not all Toyota 4Runners en route to dealerships are automatically placed on a 30-day quality control (QC) hold
.
However, quality control holds are a normal part of Toyota's process and can occur for various reasons.
Here's what you should know:
  • QC Holds Happen: Toyota sometimes places vehicles on hold to inspect for potential defects or perform necessary fixes before they reach dealerships.
  • Not Always 30 Days: While a 30-day hold is mentioned, QC holds can vary in length.
  • Reasons for Holds: These holds can be triggered by a range of issues, from minor defects like faulty paint or loose door hinges, to more significant problems like software updates or safety recalls.
  • Dealer Communication: Dealers might not always have specific details about the reason for a QC hold, as Toyota doesn't always provide extensive explanations.
  • Focus on Quality: The purpose of these holds is to ensure that vehicles meet Toyota's quality standards before they are delivered to customers.
In summary: If your 4Runner's delivery is delayed due to a QC hold, it doesn't mean there's a major issue with your specific vehicle, but rather that Toyota is taking steps to ensure the quality of its vehicles.
 
I’m wondering if the recall on the tundras are part of this. If they are ensuring that issue is not impacting the 4Runners as well. That’s my guess
 
Probably the air dam falling off more than anything. In the FB group, it seemed like every other day, someone was complaining about their air dam falling off. They should just delete that thing entirely from the factory.
 
I have a TRD Pro allocated. Finally heard back from my dealer on Wednesday 6/25. The QC Hold is still in place w/no definitive start date.

Curious to see if anyone has heard something different.
