Warning to all 3rd gen owners, possibly 2.5 gen.
Toyota is selling your driving information to insurance companies.
They do this by FORCING you to sign up for their app. The terms and conditions for this app are quite ominous if you actually read them and i know when i bought my truck, a 2024 limited, the salesman basically wouldnt get OUT OF MY TRUCK until i signed up for the toyota app.
They say whatever they can to get you to sign up. They said i need it for remote start, i can control different functions of the vehicle from the app. I can get important data about the vehicles health and whatever else. This guy would not shut up about this stupid app.
I started to sign up to get him out of my truck but i reached a point where it wouldnt let me decline location data. At that point i told him to get out of my truck as this was after i had already bought it! Long story short i never accepted and i dont have the app. Unfortunately i dont have remote start but thats okay with me to stop sharing my data.
If you are signed up for this app i highly encourage you sever your ties with it and request you data to be pulled from the database.
This stuff is just rediculous and needs to be stopped. Im not a tin foil hat boomer either, im 22yo sick of companies recording every single detail of my life and using it against me financially.
