Description of Defect and Safety Hazard:The rear tail lamp assemblies on this 2024 Toyota Sequoia have suffered a major sealing and adhesive compromise, permitting road dirt and fine debris to bypass internal filters and permanently accumulate inside the housing. This is a progressive design defect identical to the one that triggered Toyota\u2019s massive 443,000-unit rear-lighting safety recall (Recall 25TA14 / 25TB14) for platform-sharing Tundras.This constitutes an active safety hazard. The dense layer of road grime and permanent dust obscuring the interior lenses significantly degrades the lumen output, visibility, and daytime reflectivity of the brake lamps, turn signals, and rear running lights. This directly increases the risk of a rear-end collision, particularly in low-visibility or nighttime conditions. Furthermore, the persistent introduction of dirt and sand into an unsealed electronic housing risks premature circuit corrosion, electrical shorts, and complete illumination failure while the vehicle is in transit.Despite bringing the vehicle to two separate licensed dealerships (Daytona Toyota and Parks Toyota) within the original 3-year/36,000-mile factory bumper-to-bumper warranty window (current mileage: 35,821), Toyota and its regional distributor (Southeast Toyota) have refused to replace the defective assemblies, falsely categorizing a structural seal breach as normal environmental behavior.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2024","productMake":"TOYOTA","productModel":"SEQUOIA HYBRID","manufacturer":"Toyota Motor Corporation"}]}]}
