2025 Toyota Grand Highlander — reported problems
CarFaultIQ holds 110 evidence records for the 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander, drawn from official sources and owner complaints.
What owners report: issue areas
Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 95 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.
- Powertrain (transmission & drivetrain)15 (15.8%)Official recall records for this system: 1, covering model years 2026.
- Engine11 (11.6%)
- Fuel system9 (9.5%)

- Body & structure8 (8.4%)Official recall records for this system: 1, covering model years 2026.
- Speed control & accelerator6 (6.3%)
Other / uncategorized: 20 classifications (21.1%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.
These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.
What the records are about, by source
Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.
- Owner complaints (644 records, model years 2024–2026) are most frequently classified under: powertrain (transmission & drivetrain), engine and fuel system.
- Manufacturer communications (360 records, model years 2024–2026) are most frequently classified under: electrical system, body & structure and engine.
"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
