2022 Toyota Tundra TRD PRO: Adventure Mode Activated! OVERVIEW of Toyota's Integrated Dash Cam 

Thank you! Glad you found it helpful. Unfortunately, the camera failed and had to be completely replaced. Here is the video update: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-of-kgqX3wnE.html

I agree! There is a parking mode where the camera stays on for a brief period of time after you turn off the vehicle, but no where near Tesla’s level

@@TristanGrimaldo Do the headlights go on if the camera senses motion? Any other “integration” to make me purchase this camera over an after market model? Thanks Tristan!

@@Pressplaysubscribe those are some great questions and ideas! Unfortunately, the camera isn’t that intuitive. Honestly, I think the biggest advantage of the camera is the sentry mode and clean installation. After owning it for quite sometime, those are the only two advantages I see and doesn’t really have any features that significantly sets it apart from the competition. But hope Toyota is reading your post because that would be awesome to have those deter features 👍

No problem at all! I’m glad it’s become a good reference for information. I will be shooting an update video soon. The whole thing failed and had to be replaced! Under warranty thankfully 😄

Thank you for the kind words 🙏. And yes definitely use it. It’s a great feature!

Absolutely worth it 👍

Lol. Thank you! We have been getting rained out of the drag race video so I have been posting videos on other vehicles for now. But countless more Tundra content coming soon. Stay tuned and thanks for watching!

Thank you!🙏

Thank you! Usually after you turn off your vehicle, the camera will continue to record for a certain period of time before it turns off. Any incidents that trigger the G shock sensor will automatically turn the camera on and record

Thank you! Unfortunately not. But it does have a microphone for audio.

Hey Kyle! Not silly questions at all. It performs loop recording for 2 mins video file duration. Oldest file is deleted once Normal Recording allocation is full. You wont need a larger memory card due to this. When there is something you want to save, you simply download the video file from the app and save it where you prefer. Once it’s saved, you can delete it. For this dash cam, you can only access your video files while you’re in the truck and your phone is connected to the camera. But once it’s downloaded, it will always be available on your app.

One tip: get a high endurance card. They can handle more data re-writes than a standard card. Longevity of the card is multiplied.

Interesting! Thank you for that tip 👍.

Having a order is been dirty..

You don't have the highest trim.

Awesome! Does your live view work?

Same. My 2023 Venz came with one.

Congrats on your Tundra Ray! Don't hesitate to reach out if you have additional questions. Thanks for watching!

No problem! The rear view mirror is not integrated with the dash cam. It actually uses a camera located near the 3rd brake light. The dash cam is only front view.

@@TristanGrimaldo I think that's a shortcoming from toyota, rear view cam is as important as the front view.

I agree. There is honestly a lot of things Toyota could have done better with the truck. Overall happy with it, but tons of room for improvement

Great point! I actually was thinking about this the other day. I’m sure that if you modify it, you would be able to utilize the cameras in that matter and then some. I would give it time but i am sure someone will come up with it haha! Thank you for watching

I've owned my Tundra for about 2 months now. As far as issues go, nothing serious to be honest. The rear axle recall was simply to check it the bolts were tight (which they were). Other issues are software updates and minor quality issues. Mechanically, the truck has been awesome! Still smiling ear to ear every time I get behind the wheel. What's funny is the majority of the negative comments you see on Tundra videos are from individuals who don't even own the truck yet alone have seen one in person, which makes the source not credible. At the end of it all, I am very happy with it and have confidence in knowing that even though it is a new truck, it is still built by Toyota, the company who everyone fell in love with due to their dedication to quality and reliability.

@@TristanGrimaldo Well said buddy I love my 22 Tundra Platinum!

Thank you! Glad to hear you’re enjoying your Tundra 👍

A lot of things can be done DIY. However, this one I would personally leave to the pros. Unfortunately, the camera failed and had to be completely replaced. Here is the video update: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-of-kgqX3wnE.html

I know you did a '1st fill up' video.. but I would like to know if you are starting to get more MPG now that it's broken in...

Hey there! I did notice a slight improvement in my MPGs. Currently I’ve been fluctuating between 19-21 mpg. I haven’t passed the 2k mark yet (1500 or so as of now), but usually after that is where Tundra owners are apparently seeing better gas mileage. I have noticed the the truck drives much smoother and is slightly more responsive. Not as stiff as in the first 1,000 miles of that makes sense.

The first fuel up video I was averaging around 18mpg if I remember correctly.

I reached out Tony (Service Director for Fred Haas Toyota Country) and told him I was having issues with my dash cam. He looked into it and found a recall and required software update. I’m not entirely sure what they did but definitely had to be done at the dealership. Took them about 30 minutes. But now it works great!

@@TristanGrimaldo what was the dashcam doing before you got it updated

1. It wouldn’t stay connected to my phone/app. Establishing an initial connection was difficult (wouldn’t show up on the network list) 2. I couldn’t access any of my footage 3. It turns off adventure mode randomly when you activate it 4. Sometimes the dash cam would not turn on with the truck All these issues have been resolved since the update.

I haven’t been able to get my live view to work. I’ll need to follow back up with Toyota on it but your question is valid

Yes it does. The moment you turn on your vehicle, it starts to record on a continuous loop. Here are the different recording modes straight from the camera’s manual: Normal Recording: Loop recording, 2 mins video file duration. Oldest file deleted once Normal Recording allocation is full. Event Recording: Triggered by G-sensor or triggered manually (short press ACTION button for Event Recording). Oldest file deleted once Event Recording allocation is full. This over-writing can be turned off in the app, but may result in files not being protected if memory is full. Parking Recording: When the vehicle shuts down and then waits 2m 45s, the Parking mode starts. The parking recording is triggered by G-sensor and takes 5 seconds to boot up and record 1 minute of footage per G-shock event. Oldest file deleted once Parking Recording allocation is full. This over-writing can be turned off in the app, but may result in files not being captured if memory is full. Adventure Recording: Activated by long pressing Action button, records continuous file till card full or user stops recording by pressing Action button again with a long press.

@@TristanGrimaldo thank you for the reply/excellent explanation, I’m going to see if they can add this to my capstone (if it ever comes lol)

No problem! And hopefully your capstone comes in soon. When I went to Toyota that day for the camera update, Bradley said they had an unclaimed capstone on the way. I left his contact info in the description. Maybe reach out to him. Someone got lucky and claimed a lunar rock TRD pro tundra and he wasn’t even on the allocation list. Let me know if I could be of any more assistance. Thanks for watching 👍

Right! It would have been a great security feature. I also believe Toyota would charge us monthly for it as well lol

Fortunately dash cam is one that doesn’t need a subscription. The only subscription I kept was the one for the remote start. Very useful for me

The park mode doesn’t stay on all the time like the sentry mode on a Tesla. They don’t specify too much exactly how hard the vehicle has to be hit in order for the sensors to activate park mode, but I would assume something significant like a hard door ding or someone actually hitting your vehicle with theirs

Oh man! Honestly I’m not entirely sure on the difficulty of the install. However, installing anything with wiring scares me. I would be the one that would short the entire truck. Rather not take the risk and have Toyota install 😁

I believe you have to delete the app and download it again. It should give you the option to reset the password then. If not, your local Toyota dealership can definitely help

Hey Jennifer! Congratulations on your new Tundra! Try this: 1. Delete the app and download it again 2. Check to assure that your software is up to date. There was a recall and I had to take mine to Toyota 3. Worse case scenario, definitely take it to your local Toyota dealership and they can get it addressed for you 👍 Hope that helps! Don’t hesitate to reach out. Thank you for watching and stay tuned for more videos

You’re absolutely correct. It does not have a connection with the infotainment system. It acts similar to that of a 3rd party camera. However, you would be surprised that the price of this camera is within range of other high quality cameras. I have owned dash cams in all my vehicles and what I honestly love about Toyota’s dash cam are: 1. Oem quality 2. Flush and discrete (no wires) 3. User friendly Only downside is you don’t see what’s being recorded unless you log into the dash cam app.

Unfortunately, the camera failed and had to be completely replaced. Here is the video update: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-of-kgqX3wnE.html

The duration of the clips are honestly from the moment you turn it on to the moment you turn off the vehicle. I simply just cut these clips for the purpose of the video. You can also record on demand using adventure mode. However, once your memory is full it will simply record in a loop and record over previous footage (oldest first)

I hope Toyota is reading this because all you guys are making valid and reasonable suggestions! I too would have loved to utilize the 360 cameras as a security feature like Tesla’s sentry mode. But as I stated to the other viewer’s comments, I am sure Toyota would charge us a monthly payment for it lol.

Will do 👍

Hey Tobin. It includes a 16GB, Industrial Grade Micro SD memory card. For some reason, the manual states to use no higher than 32GB.

It’s only the front. Would have been great if they had a rear recording camera

Yes it comes with one 👍. They actually don’t recommend using an aftermarket SD

Hello there! To stop recording, turn off the vehicle ignition or press the Dashcam's Power Button for more than 1 second till the Green Power LED is off. By pressing the Power Button you are temporarily shutting off the Dashcam. It can be turned on again by pressing the Power Button or it will automatically turn on again the next time you start your vehicle. You’re also able to mute the camera. Unfortunately, my dash cam completely failed and Toyota recently replaced it under warranty. I’ll be posting an updated video soon that so stay tuned. Thank you for watching!

@@TristanGrimaldo another question, will the back part of the car be recorded while parked (impact). I’m not sure whether the camera will also record back impact while driving or parked. Thanks.

Unfortunately, I believe it only records from the front view. The accident will trigger it to record, but there is no rear facing camera as far as I’m aware of.

@@TristanGrimaldo thanks got the info 👍🏼

I just got the integrated dash cam installed on a new Toyota. My manual says a 128gb SD card is the max you can install into the cam. Right now, I'm using a SanDisk High Endurance 128gb card for my cam without issues. When installing that card into the cam, I made sure to format the card using the app first. So far, so good.

How did you take out the built in SD card? I'm trying to but it won't come out. Do you have to take it out a certain way or is mine just stuck? ​@@agentx5959

Hard Reset the camera if required by inserting a small tool in the very top right vent hole to press the button. Do not insert any object into any other vent holes. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thank you

Also, go into your Toyota dash cam app and make sure your firm ware is updated. There is an update for the firmware through Toyota as well. I believe it was an actual recall simply for that update. I would recommend asking your local Toyota dealership if your camera would require it.

Oh man that’s unfortunate. There are still some great aftermarket cameras as alternative options 👍

Awesome! You’ll love it. In regards to the blinking light, I personally have not paid much attention to it. How long does it stay blinking? It automatically goes into parking mode and stays recording for a few minutes after the vehicle is shut off. Could also be the alarm system indicator? I’ll have to double check mine and get back to you on that

@@TristanGrimaldo ok thanks and it’s been off for an hour or two and it’s still blinking

@@user-yd5wr4ud7e I wonder if it’s the alarm system light you’re seeing. I’ll take a look at mine and see if I have some sort of light. I’ll get back with you soon.

Unfortunately, not that I’m aware of. With the 360 view cameras, it would have been an awesome security feature. Who knows, they may come up with an update later. But I wouldn’t be surprised if Toyota made us pay monthly for it 😂

It’s called Toyota Dash Cam

Update: I had to format the new SD card as FAT32, not ExFAT and was able to get the dashcam to stop beeping at me. still dont know why the OEM SD card fried.

Hey Rezifire. I definitely think this would be a warranty item since there should be no reason why the OEM SD card is fried. Have you double checked to make sure your firm ware is update? I know I had to take mine in to Toyota for the update. Maybe you can also claim warranty on the SD card. Apparently, they do not recommend using a different SD card an only the one the camera came with. Keep me posted and hopefully you get it resolved.

This one does not. Straight forward app. It’s the remote start, wifi, and other things that they’ll get you for lol

Yes it can. There are several places online to purchase from or your local Toyota dealership as well. Well worth it 👍

If I remember correctly you have to push in first and it should eject. If that doesn’t work I need to play around with it again to refresh my memory. It’s been awhile lol

@@TristanGrimaldo I figured it out. It's hard to open with bare hands. It's easier to open with plairs or screwdriver.

Dude, I broke the original one it came with the truck 🤦🏻‍♂️ have to buy a new one

@@ablopez7667 the sd card can still be put in even without it just be sure to hold it with something else ofc

Unfortunately not. Even with the update I still can’t get live view to work. I’ll post an update if I get it to work

@@TristanGrimaldo yeah. It’s fine I guess. Overall I enjoy my system. I’d give it a 7.5 out of 10 as far as functionality. Convenient is what is holding me back. I don’t enjoy having to connect via wifi and then download the videos to my phone and then go over the videos .

I just got one installed on my Lexus NX 350h, love it! Live view does work on mine.

@@HUSSEINALWANBAKHEET I believe if you disconnect the battery you can reset it. Factory passcode I believe is either all 0 or 12345678. Don’t quote me on it lol. But the manual is available online to reset it

@@TristanGrimaldo I tried the password 1234567890. It did not work. Can you send

@@TristanGrimaldo I tried the password 1234567890. It was not possible to connect. Can you send me a link on how to perform a factory reset, please?

How do I access the factory reset guide?

Fortunately, no monthly fee. You purchase the camera outright and it is yours. I am considering eating the monthly cost for the remote start though. Only thing worth paying for in my opinion. You can start the truck with your key fob but only in close proximity. The app allows you to start from a much further distance.

@@TristanGrimaldo sweet! Appreciate the info

No problem! Thanks for watching 👍

@@TristanGrimaldo You don't get any subsription in the USA when you buy the truck? I have 3 subscriptions on my 22 TRD Pro app, Remote connect, Safety connect, and Drive connect. All expire in 3 years, and I did not ask for them, so I assume here in Canada we get 3 years free trial? I also got the Toyota bed matt, and the rock sliders standard on the truck. And I paid MSRP as dealers selling new vechicles marked up over MSRP is illegal in Canada. Why do you guys get the short end of the stick, its a much larger market I find that strange... Thanks for the video! I am looking at ordering that dash cam

@@JohnnyP636 That's awesome you guys get 3 years. Honestly, I don't know why we get the short end of the stick haha. My subscription expires May 2023. The only one I plan on keeping beyond the expiration would be the remote connect. Congratulations on your TRD Pro and purchasing it MSRP. You're going to love the dash cam. Well worth it! Thank you for watching and stay tuned for future videos.

Unfortunately it only shows the front camera POV and can’t utilize other camera points like Tesla. Would have been nice though

Hey Alberto. That's actually a great question. I am honestly not sure. The functionality of the camera is just like any other dash cam. The only time it utilizes Wi-fi is when you are accessing recorded images. But also, there really isn't a way to see what is being recorded. But honestly, it's technology so I am sure when there is a will there is a way lol.

Toyota DashCam is the app 👍

You would need to delete the entire app and reinstall it on your phone. From there, it should prompt you for a password reset. There is a factory code initially. All “0” if I’m not mistaken but after that you can put your own. There is also a manual on the camera app for reference if you need additional help. Worse case, I’m sure your local Toyota dealership can help.

Lol no worries. I live in a fairly secure area with the majority of my neighbors being former military, former and active law enforcement, and not a single blind spot. Plus we live in Texas, not the greatest idea 😎. But it’s an awesome dash cam.

There were many Tundra owners requesting a video on it because their trucks did not come with the dash cam. Simply an overview to see if this is something they would want to add to their truck.

Awesome! Thank you for the suggestion.

Lol it all depends on the content. It would be difficult to show the truck when the purpose of the video is to highlight the dashcam, which is inside the truck. Watch my owner's review video of the truck. I thoroughly cover the truck (inside & out). But no worries, you will be seeing a lot of truck when we shoot the drag race video. Thank you for watching.
