Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:INSTRUMENT PANEL:FUEL GAUGE filed August 14, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2120521 (ODI reference 11680632) concerns a 2023 TOYOTA SIENNA HYBRID and was filed on August 14, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on July 4, 2025. The report was geocoded to Arizona based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:instrument panel:fuel gauge, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same TOYOTA SIENNA HYBRID cohort independently describe similar electrical system:instrument panel:fuel gauge failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2023 TOYOTA SIENNA HYBRID shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
