2016...First TSB
Not a biggie...
Toyota just released a TSB # T-SB-0011-16 for the 2016. Now hold on to your seats...the problem is as follows
Some 2016 model year Land Cruiser vehicles may exhibit the clock displaying a “0” during the
12 o’clock hour. Follow the procedure in this bulletin to address this condition.
If your Land Cruiser was produced BEFORE vin # JTMCY7AJ#G4037983, Toyota will install a new $4000+ multi display while under the 3/36 warranty.
Ahhh, many Land Cruiser problems are akin to 1st world problems.
My suggestion, if this happens to you, find out if you can keep the old unit. Then in 20 years when the multi display goes out, you will have a new one... although it won't display 12:00 o'clock properly.
I'd say it's of around the same importance as sequential turn signals (or lack thereof) and / or Weather Tech floor liners that need access holes cut to fit rear seats and rear cargo tie-downs.

There is one more TSB to come. My vin is above the clip level for the clock recall, but today another Land Cruiser owner discovered a MID display problem which I have confirmed. On MID the nav turn distance is skewed by a one decimal. Does anyone with 16 LX have the same problem since tachometer seems to be the same?

"Toyota will install a new $4000+ multi display while under the 3/36 warranty. " -it reads like PR, given it is a programming error/feature.
