Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The 2020 - 2025 Toyota Supra is manufactured by BMW and uses virtually all components supplied by BMW. The vehicle includes dual climate controls (driver / passenger) and the temperature of the air from the vents is controlled independently. It is known by BMW that the blend door or the actuator (motor) - which regulates how much cold versus hot air is mixed per the control setting - can break or be deformed. This is a manufacturing defect in the heating unit, not a wear issue. No heat is available to the driver either through the center vent, the left vent, and most importantly from a safety standpoint, the vents at the windshield. This means defrosting or defogging the windshield during winter is virtually impossible because only extremely cold air is available on the driver's side. Since it is made by BMW, the Supra is at risk for the same issue. There are several reports on the internet from Supra owners and many, many from BMW owners who identified the problem and even attempted to create stronger replacement parts. On or about July 26, 2021, NHTSA published two safety recall / service bulletins for BMW and Mini for this problem: SI M64 02 21 and SIB 64 06 21. The cost of repair through Toyota or an independent repair shop is purportedly several thousand dollars because the entire interior dash must be removed to access the heating unit to replace the defective part(s). The Toyota Supra should be subject to the same safety recalls and the repairs should be provided by the dealership or authorized repair shop.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: REARVIEW SYSTEM BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
The vehicle Parking / Backup / Cross Traffic assist warnings do not work unless the objects are within approx 2 feet of the car. When backing up there is no warning of any on coming traffic or a child behind the car. If a individual is at the rear of the car there is no visible or audible warnings. Only warning is either seeing the individual in the rear window or on the camera. This has been brought to the manufactures attention and they say this is the normal operation. All other cars I have had cross traffic and pedestrian alerts have visual and audible alerts. The car says that it is suppose to have them.

Potential Consequences:
There was a beep and then my dashboard went completely blank (was just dark) so I couldn't see any information such as how many miles per hour I was driving or how much gas I had or my navigational information or what gear I was in. Then the dashboard came back on and it said there was reduced driver assitance (but did not say what was wrong). The dealer says my dashboard should not have gone blank but they can't fix it since not sure why. This is very dangerous and should be addressed.

I scheduled an appointment to get an oil change and recall issue taken care of by a Toyota dealership near me. I dropped it off in the morning and when I called to check up on it in the afternoon they did not even begin to work on the car. I had picked it up because they said they were unable to get to it. Keep in mind they were still working on other cars that were simply pulling in. I had scheduled my appointment a week prior to get this issue taken care of. Now I am putting my safety at risk because they failed to take care of the issue.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
Potential Consequences:
I WAS STOPPED IN THE LEFT TURN LANE AT A RED LIGHT. THE TURN ARROW SWITCHED TO GREEN SO I TOOK THE U-TURN. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE U-TURN GOING ABOUT 15 MPH, WHEN THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. THE CAR OVERSTEERED, AND THE REAR PORTION OF THE CAR KICKED OUT TO THE RIGHT SIDE. I CORRECTED BY COUNTERSTEERING AND REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE, CAUSING ME TO OVERSTEER TO THE LEFT SIDE THIS TIME. IN AN EFFORT TO STOP THE CAR, I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES WHILE OVERSTEERING. THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO ROTATE COUNTER CLOCKWISE, AND IMPACTED WITH THE CURB AND ENDED UP ON TOP OF THE MEDIAN.
