ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 Toyota Sequoia?
The 2024 Toyota Sequoia has not been subjected to federal crash testing, leaving consumers without a direct, objective measure of its safety performance. Without this data, its Safety Index score remains uncomputable. Five recall campaigns have been issued. Two of these, concerning backup-camera software and the automatic transmission, are not unique to the Sequoia; they also affect the Tundra and Tundra Hybrid, indicating platform-level issues. Other recalls, for a tow-hitch-cover structure and tire sidewalls, appear to be model-specific concerns. The complaint record shows 35 unverified allegations, with no reported crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths. While prior generations of the Sequoia (2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019) achieved Safety Index scores of 85, 84, 85, and 81 respectively, these results do not apply to the redesigned 2024 model.
