I just checked my VIN and do not have that message. But, I have been on a QC hold since May 17. FE has been in the port in Portland since April 5. I doubt we will see these cars for a few more months. I recall watching a video comparing the Lexus and the LC and they said that they were...

I was also asked for the QR code or 8 digit code. I have a Window Sticker buy no code. Mine has been in Portland since April 5. Still “May be in transit.” August, maybe????? We went down to one car and can manage with that. I feel really bad for folks who did that and are struggling.

I have no idea. It came with the truck. Said truck has been sitting in Portland since early April.

My LC FÉ is coming from the factory with one. Wasn’t my first choice but I can live with it.

My dealer just told me their regional representative said yesterday that my FE will land at the dealership in July. It’s been at the port in Portland since April 5. I’m still not holding my breath.

I’m sure if We wanted to get militant, all of us on the Forum could send an email to the same Toyota customer service email asking for transparent information about what is wrong and when it will all be fixed. Unless we do something like that, I’m guessing we will just have to wait.

Can you publish the Toyota Brand Engagement email so that all of us are writing to the same place? I see several options but want to add to the messaging…..Thanks.

I would hope that when this entire debacle is over and done with, Toyota would offer all of us who purchase a new LC that was held up at Port some kind of cash reduction. On this vehicle, not on some future vehicle. Many of us have been significantly inconvenienced by this delay. We sold one...

I chose that word because the word Raid is used in the title of the BBC article and the body of the piece.

Hope they all survived.

The LC is not mentioned in the vehicles impacted, true. But, one would expect this has the attention of Toyota executives and therefore may cause the QC issues to move to the back burner. Just wondering what others think. Thanks

Which port? Thanks.

I am really hoping/expecting that Toyota will release mine by June 17th, which is 30 days after the 30 day QC was initiated. Time will tell.

She does a nice job. And, we plan to camp in our LC FE. We have an Exped mattress that was initially designed for our Model Y Tesla. Should fit wonderfully in our new LC. Great video.

Does anyone have experience or wisdom on the likely impact of our LC’s sitting outside, unprotected, with the White plastic on their hoods? That is transport protection and not intended for long-term use. As I have mentioned before, my cars never sit outside, unless I am going to the grocery...

I really don’t understand why Toyota doesn’t issue a bulletin to all dealers stating what the problem is and how they plan to fix it and when they plan to fix it. How complicated would that be for the automobile manufacturer considered to be one of the finest on the planet? Come on, Toyota...

My dealer told me today after the noon update that his guess is that nothing will change until after June 17th, the 30 day mark after the QC Hold. I have the same information from mine.

Thanks for that. Very helpful.

I’ll say it again. The GM of the largest Toyota dealership in the Midwest told me two days ago that Toyota never releases the reason for these holds even to the dealerships. They only leak the information once they have addressed the issue. My Land Cruiser first edition has been sitting in the...

Very helpful, these photos and information about the oil change. Even at age 67, I think I could roll mine up on the ramps and get her done!! Guessing the ground clearance isn’t sufficient to do the oil change without ramps?!! Again, thanks for your generosity in sharing these photos. Dr. M

Actually, I neglected to mention that this Toyota GM also stated that there will likely be a recall coming. Yikes. I guess we just keep waiting and some day, we will know the full story.

I just spoke with a GM at a very large Toyota dealership this afternoon. I have been doing Business with them for over 20 years. He told me that Toyota will not release any details about the QC hold. So, if anyone says they know what it is, they are incorrect. Those were his words. It is a...

Try vacuuming it with a sweeper brush vacuum like you would use in the house. Hope it helps.

Thanks very much.

That helps a lot. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Does anyone know if the Land Cruisers sitting in Portland are outdoors in the dirty and salty air? Mine has been there for almost 2 months. Not usually what I expect in a brand new vehicle. Mine are never parked outdoors. Anyone have intelligence on this? Thanks!!

That is a creative option ($5K over MSRP but you choose how to spend your $5K with them).

I am wondering if those of us who are experiencing delays with our LC deliveries have early, late, middle VIN numbers. My FE LC VIN ends in 626. I am assuming that means it was the six hundred and twent sixth First Edition manufactured. I may be wrong there. But, do we have any sense if VIN...

In my mind, my FE LC, which was supposed to be here by mid-late May, will only be late, if it arrives in late August. We sold one of our cars to get ready for it, but, we are doing surprisingly well with just one vehicle. Think of the money I am saving by keeping my $78K in the stock market...
