The new Tundras have been in the spot light a lot. Some have had camshaft failures, tailgate failures, and transmission issues. Toyota has been pretty good about fixing the problems, but it still doesn't look good. Previous generation Tundras were known for brake problems.
Also, Camrys have had a shift flare problem that is pretty well known. I can't remember if they developed a fix for it or not.
Other models have had smaller issues. Cab leaks on Tacomas, cracked composite beds on Tacomas, etc.
Toyota has acknowledged that quality isn't what it used to be. They have been growing very fast and this stuff happens when you build that many cars.
