What is "Quality Hold" Status

Kid_Yota · May 28, 2025

I checked the spreadsheet this morning to confirm my VIN was still listed, which it was. However, the ETA dates for the VIN were still blank. I am guessing I won’t see anything until after June.

Mine was supposed to be delivered this week as it arrived at port 5/24, but placed on hold until 6/18. No reason as to why. Here’s to hoping it comes sooner.

Not much to add to the drama, Northern Colorado, salesman texted on 5/16 to say the ordered ORP had reached port and rail but was stopped for a random inspection. My opinion from reading others opinions....They will rivet the chin guard, I'll drill them out. That's all I got until I do.

they wont rivet it.

they will find a mounting solution that is not permanent but also not get loose.

I Decided to cancel my order, the lack of communication is ridiculous. My dealer reached out to me and said supposedly the regional distributor for the northeast contacted him and said “no firm eta yet but should be a simple inspection, they are working on what that is now and should get them started in the next in the next 2-4 weeks”. Then proceeded to tell me all the vehicles that were already at the port the day the hold was implemented (5/15/25) would be done first. Then all the cars that have arrived since. So in other words in 2-4 the will start doing the inspections. So i would be looking at something like another 2 months min to see my vehicle with no information on what the problem was. Just not worth it at this point. Ill wait until they figure out all there kinks on the new gen in a year or two. Pulled the trigger on a new gx550.

lol good thing i am not in a hurry for mine. been on a alloction reserve request since november-2024 (?) and its still hasnt been fulfilled yet. at this rate i may have to switch my reserve request to a 2026 MY.

deja vu all over again that we went thru on our tundra. put in an allocation reserve request in may-2022 and had to switch it to a 2023 tundra and finally picked it up in feb-2023. 10 month wait

Where are you at Nodak? Here in the Red River Valley, allocations seem to be getting out. IIRC you're looking for a limited, but I was more interested in a Sport Premium. I was able to get one on deposit after being on the allocation list under a month. Of course it's currently stuck in QC hold. Was waiting for transport to the rail head a few weeks ago, so just barely missed it!

unfortunately or fortunately (depends on how you view it) i have to wait until my dealer can fulfill mt allocation reserve request.

1. platinum trim
2. deposit is non-refundable unless they cant fulfill it within 4 months
3. they guarantee invoice going the allocation route and deposit
4. they are a 2nd tier dealer (they dont exclusively sell toyota's)

so they are lower on the allocation fulfillment process than if they only sold toyota's only

Ouch... that's quite the list. I went through a local Toyota dealer and didn't want the hybrid since I the city MPG difference wasn't worth the extra money to us. While they couldn't guarantee price, the deposit I put down was fully refundable, so if price changes or something, I can back out.

I'm coming from a 2012 Grand Cherokee Laredo that still works so I'm not in a crazy hurry. Though the electronic issues are getting annoying. According to the dealer there's "interference" on the key fob wavelength, so it often kills the engine about 3 seconds after ignition. You have to then turn the entire car off before trying again. When it's taking 5-6 times to start, I start to get more in a hurry to get the 4runner ahaha

Never do business with with any dealer that says deposit is non refundable

Was your GX delivered or are you on a list for it? Just curious?
