Should You Buy the 2025 Toyota GR86?
Good reliability puts this coupe above average among 2025 coupes and among the stronger of the five GR86 model years scored. Owners filed 3 complaints, and federal recall records list no recalls. The 2024 rates about the same. The 2026 rates better, but it has had less time to collect complaints.
The one pattern is a fuel line under the hood that rubs and shows wear. Two owners found the chafing during their own inspections, after hearing about the same problem from other GR86 owners. None reported a leak, warning light, or change in how the car drives. The worry is fire, since owners say rubbing fuel lines have been tied to fires. Neither complaint reports a fire, crash, or loss of control.
Have a mechanic inspect the fuel line under the hood for rubbing, and ask for repair records covering it.
Compared to the 2026 Toyota GR86, which scored 9 points higher. See also the 2024 Toyota GR86 for an earlier comparison.

Used Buying Checklist
Key things to inspect or verify before purchasing a 2025 Toyota GR86.
Open the hood and trace the fuel lines with a flashlight, looking for worn, shiny, or chafed spots where they rub.

Have a mechanic check the under-hood fuel hoses for rub damage during a pre-purchase inspection.
Run the VIN through federal recall records to see whether any fuel system campaigns are open.
2025 Toyota GR86 Common Problems by Component
3 owner complaints grouped by vehicle system.
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
2 complaintsA fuel line under the hood rubs and shows wear. Owners describe finding the chafing during their own inspections, prompted by reports of the same problem among other GR86 owners, not by a leak, warning light, or change in how the car drives. The main worry is fire, since owners say rubbing fuel lines have been tied to fires. Neither of the 2 complaints reports a fire, crash, or loss of control on their own car, and no mileage pattern appears.
LANE DEPARTURE
1 complaintThe BSD or blind spot detection has worked intermittently since purchasing it new. Ive been honked at when merging into other vehicles on the highway several times. I also pay attention to it to see if it will alert on cars in my blind spot. Most times it does but numerous times on each trip it does not alert me. When it does alert me it alerts much later than any other car I've driven. This particular car has a big blind spot and is hard to manually check at times due to road conditions. I brought it to the dealer, as it is still under warranty with only several hundred miles on it. I drove the service advisor with me and the problem was recreated 4 times. I was told the system was working normally and no errors detected. Also the system was only supposed to alert me to cars passing me from behind, not to car I had passed or cars "captured" in my blind spot. As it turns out, when I merged onto the highway, a car matching my entry speed was " captured" in my blind spot and I nearly hit it because the BSD failed. There has been no other official inspections of the car. There were no warning lamps or indicators. The car is undamaged and in as new condition.
