Toyota Won't Fix their Wireless Chargers

- Wireless Charging Issue in 3rd gen Toyota Tundra 2022+. Intermittent and weak charging. Seems to be all of Toyota's wireless charging equipped vehicles. Possible fix shown at the end of video. Charger I reference in the video is no longer available on amazon but you can find similar like it.
You really did a great job detailing your experience and legally Toyota should be required to recall all their wireless chargers for vehicles 2018 and up.
My brand new 2020 Prius limited I bought in 2021 new, the wireless charger shuts off within 20 seconds and never works
You are absolutely correct when say Toyota doesn't care about this issue. I own a 2022 Platinum and wireless charging is temperamental at best. Thanks for posting the video.
Maybe Toyota would fix it if they could charge us $10/mo for this feature as a subscription.
Sounds like this issue is with other Toyota models too. We pay a lot of money for our Toyota cars and trucks. Hopefully, a class action lawsuit in the near future will hold Toyota responsible.
That’s what I am hoping for. They really need to be held accountable.
Thank you so much for making this video, I have the same problem! I have a 23 Corolla Hatch
This dude is spot on. Have a 22 pro, the wireless charger is useless. Took it in yesterday and got the “could not replicate” response. Drove 1 minute down the road, it stopped worked.toyota has got to fix these quality issues
To follow up, toyota did finally replace the coil on my charger and it has been working 💯 so far. We ll see if it lasts but right now it is working as it should after a few test drives
@@bhowell7714still working?
Thank you for posting this problem with Toyota's wireless charger. I upgraded to an iPhone 15 so that I could charge my phone in our Yaris Cross which didn't work so I bought a case for my new phone with a Qi charger but still no joy. Next step, like you, is to go to the garage and tell them it's not working, our garage is roughly an hours drive away too! The Toyota user guide may as well be written in Chinese! Grrrr! Our car is a 2024 model just out of interest.
100 % True. i bought new 2023 toyota venza. charger not working at all
I think I would be more pissed off for having to come back more than once for the lack of support from the dealership. Their response to come back after verbalizing they were wrong and you were right would have set me off!
2021 prius here....nope, Qi charger doesn't work either. sucks. i gave up and just plug it in. not sure if i want to go through the hassle of installing your suggested new charger. glad there is an alternative tho'. thanks for saving me the time and frustration of taking it in to the dealership. sorry you had to go through all that. midly infuriating !!!!
2024 Tacoma, same issue. Phone felt like a Southern sidewalk after a 20 min drive. Good luck.
Just bought a 23 Tundra limited, love the truck, but everytime I put my iPhone on “ wireless charger”, after 20 minutes, same level of battery on phone, same on my wife’s phone with no case on her phone, Bullshit feature Toyota, FIX IT, I paid for it
My wife's 2020 Rav 4 wireless charger is completely useless. Sad thing is it was one of the options she she really wanted when she was looking to make her purchase. It's awful.
I replaced mine with an aftermarket from Amazon best decision is plug and play install
2022 Capstone… same problem. 80k for a truck with pretend features. C’mon Toyota! Do better.
Thank you for this video!
I haven’t seen anyone mention THE BUBBLE!!!!!
I tried using the wireless charger in my 2020 Tacoma for the first week, then gave up because it didn’t work.
So I kept it turned off from that point on. I noticed even though it was off and I wasn’t storing anything in that space, the rubber surface would still get crazy hot. About a month later noticed the giant bubble in the middle of the (originally flat) rubber surface. The rubber seems to have delaminated from the plastic. So I basically have an expensive giant rubber ZIT that I desperately want to pop staring at me while I drive!!!
2023 Sequoia Platinum with the same Qi Charger problem. I'm surprised that Toyota has turned a deaf ear to the problem, but they have.
I have a 2024 Corolla XSE. The wireless charging DOES NOT WORK at all.
Mine doesn't work at all. I recently bought a 2021 Tacoma TRD Off Road with 60k miles. The first two days of ownership the wireless charger worked. Now however, when you turn it on nothing happens. Even the light in the charging bay will not come on. I do have an extended warranty but I believe it's powertrain only. So this wireless charger probably not covered. But it's something minor so I'll just stick to the old tried and true method of using a usb cable which typically charges pretty quickly.
I have a 2017 Tacoma, and my charger literally melted the wireless antenna in my phone because it got so hot. Luckily, my phone was under a year old and covered under warranty, but now I charge it with a cable instead.
Same problem with my 2021 Corolla hybrid, what causes this was the MagSafe at back of the iPhone could irritate the chargers, if you charge another phone without MagSafe, it’s all good. I don’t normally use wireless chargers anyway, they are rated 5W in Toyota cars and I would rather have my phone plugged in to a powerful PD charger
100 percent agree and same w my 22 avalon.. to be fair though, I have never had luck w vehicle wireless charger in other makes as well. It's not just Toyota
Kia and Hyundai have amazing wireless chargers. Coming from a Kia to Toyota, I’m very disappointed.
I just got a 2024 Toyota Sequoia Platinum and so frustrated with the wireless charging... So annoying
Just bought a 2024 Corolla SE Hatchback and I can't get my Qi charger to keep up with the drain on my Pixel 7. It says it's charging, but it actually slowly loses power.
Thanks so your heads-up ‘you the best’
I’ve got a 2022 Tundra Capstone and have the exact same problem with my charger.
My wife’s charger in her 2020 rav4 only sort of works if you take the case off your phone. But all the other wireless chargers that I’ve tried work with the case on. Even with the case off it can easily stop charging if you just breathe on it.
I have a 2016 Camry Hybrid. The charging used to work. It was rather slow but it did work. Then one day it would start to connect, then stop pretty quickly. Now it doesn't work at all. No light, no nothing. I do know it was a $75 option. Maybe it broke, don't know. I did like laying my phone there when my wife was traveling with me as she could use the separate USB to charge her phone at the same time.
I think it's a symptom of OEM vehicle chargers. I had a Dodge Ram that had a charger just as crappy. After taking them apart and looking at it closely, the charging pad on both of these chargers are like 1.5x2", which is VERY small - especially given the size of phones these days.
Unfortunately the only thing to do is suing them they’re counting on the fact that you wont
I've never used my wireless charger in my 2021 tacoma and it bubbled up and warped in less than a year
Just got a 2024 GR Corolla and the wireless charging mat doesn't work either...sad days.
My 24 will not charge my Samsung note 20. My phone just gets hot and does not charge.
Great to know the problem is continuing to the ‘23 and ‘24. Thanks for sharing!
And here I was after getting my '24 Tundra feeling kinda bad I didn't have wireless charging. I think I'll just stick with the old reliable charging cord.
100 percent right on. I am just so sick of it and got myself a Tackform high speed 25 watt wireless charger for Samsung galaxy phone
2020 camry and same issue with iPhone 15. But with my old note 7 no issues. My thoughts is the camera bump on the iPhone is too large now and when you put the iPhone on the pad you can see space between the phone and the pad. I can’t see that on the note phone. What I want to know if there is something that can raise the qi bump up more or maybe I get a file and file down the sides of the qi holder to make room for the camera bump on the iPhone. Be nicer if I could just add a piece of conductive material to the qi charging area though.
My2023 Tundra won't charge my Samsung 24 Ultra. It does charge my Samsung S10 Plus but poorly resulting in overheating the phone on long trips.
The chargers SUCK!!!!!
2024 Toyota Prius wireless charger not worked from the first day
I have a 2017 Avalon Hybrid Limited and the charger has never worked and after dealing with Toyota after the airbag crap I didn’t bother.
Thx for sharing
probable won't be a recall since its not a safety issue; maybe tsb with free replacement if you have warranty
I own a 2021 Camry and I can confirm the wireless charger is absolutely useless. Whoever is making them needs to rethink their tech.
They finally fixed the charger....on the new 2024 Tacoma! lol. This design is definitely flawed but Toyota won't admit it. Also, newer iPhones don't make it any better, with their huge camera bump, just won't charge at all, even without a case. Funnily, an older iPhone SE works fine on the charger, even with a thick Otter case, probably because it does lay flat on the charger versus the newer iPhones.
Sounds like a class action lawsuit. Write complaints to better business bureau and to your state’s attorney. Hold Toyota to the fire enough is enough.
I have a 22 1794 edition and have the same problem. You would think paying alot of money for a vehicle things would work right. The phone charger is a peace of junk.
Exactly same issue with 2022 Toyota Sienna Platinum. Toyota advertised Sienna Platinum or Limited trim has wireless charging but It's a real bummer, scam. Toyota should be sued to recall.
Yup ours never worked..maybe charges for 5-10 sec then stops and light blinks....toyota says its overheating....i keep telling them its not even charging more than a few sec.....fast fwd a few times now of course electric is no longer covered and id need to pay over $200 just for them to inspect it
Its around 1200$ to replace it, mine was done under warranty.
I've owned a 2019 RAV4 and now a 2023 tundra and the wireless chargers aren't good at all. I really only use it to keep my phone from dying but not really charge it. I plug it in if I need to actually charge.
I cant get the top off the wireless charger.... like you press in and the cover comes off and it's stuck bought this car new a month ago
I have a 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross with the same Issue Using a I Phone 14 Plus with a outer case on the phone. I just picked up a 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Sport with the same case on the phone and guess what no problem. Hey Toyota find out what Subaru is using on their charging pad and use it
Can you link the Amazon charger you bought
Thank you buddy
Any escalate this Toyota coporate?
My 2022 Tundra is my 3rd brand new off the lot Toyota I've purchased (2008 Yairs, 2018 Rav 4). This is the most expensive Toyota I've purchased to date. My experience with this truck has been by far the absolute worst when it comes to service and customer support. I think this will unfortunately be my last Toyota.
I think it’s a software issue. They should update your radio.
U could have requested a rental free of charge
2025 Corolla xse , wireless charger blinks orange with seconds
I have a Toyota Veloce 2024 and the problem exists
I want to turn this piece of sh*t off. Then I can at least use this space for my wallet or cell phone while I charge it via cable. Anybody know if there is a fuse I can pull to disable the wireless pad? Or is the only way to open it up and cut the cable?
you right but that i have the same problem toyota is garbage i have more problems i just took to dealer and they said that they way make those people work on dealers don't know what Toyota loose reputation with this type parts they use naw
don't waste your time. They are all faulty. I'm from Europe. 2023 HB Corolla. Didn't work since the first day. By far the worst part of the car
Charging 70 grand for a truck and a wireless charger don't work, engines blowing up, windows rattling, JBL subwoofers blowing up, pathetic Toyota. Fix the scrap and take care of your customers
