My front right headlight turns on and off randomly. Now it doesn't turn on at all. I replaced the bulb and it still doesn't work. Many people have had the same problems and have also fiiled complaints because Toyota doesn't assemble or run the electrical circuits properly.

Dash goes completely blank while in motion and car will not turn off

- Duncan, SC, USA

Digital dashboard sometimes is completely blank for extended periods so that I can't see my speed, fuel levels, odometer, and other info. When I start up it happens and continues the whole time I am driving. It is causing other problems related to the hydrolic braking sometimes as well when this happens.

Our daughter drove the vehicle to school. She parked the vehicle and found that the vehicle would not turn off. We took the vehicle to the dealership and was told by the service advisor that the cause of this problem was a part called the combination meter. He advised that the part was recalled and we should have been contacted by Toyota. He provided me with a phone number for the Toyota corporations recall department. I telephoned Toyota and they advised me that I was misinformed by the service advisor and that the part was not recalled, but there was an extended warranty issued on the part in 2012. I asked why the vehicle was not recalled and was told because it wasn't a safet my concern is that this vehicle is unsafe if this part fails. By surfing the internet, I found that there have been many complaints by others regarding the same problem. If my daughter would have driven this vehicle home, parked the vehicle in the garage as she usually does. The vehicle would not have turned off. The vehicle is a hybrid and when the battery power was depleted, the gasoline engine would have kicked on. This could have caused a danger, due to carbon monoxide poisoning to any occupants within the house. Additionally, if the anti lock braking system no longer works when this part fails, the braking distance increases in an emergency braking situation. When this part fails the dash goes completely black, the driver is unaware that the ABS braking system is no longer working. The driver is also unable to see the speedometer or any other gauges in the dash. Due to recent deaths, due to carbon monoxide poisoning caused by vehicles not turning off. I feel that Toyota is negligent for not taking my concerns more seriously. Toyota is aware that there is a problem with this part, they issued an extended warranty in 2012.

The car jumps out of gear, or it won't go into park. But it started to drives away after I got out of the car, or as I was getting out. This happen twice, once at the dealer. The display for transmission position was broken. The same display that shows speed, fuel level and other items was not working. Also, I could not shut off the car or remove the key. The first time it happen was 8/19/2015 at a car wash. The display went dead during the wash. Wile trying to fix the problem, the car drove away in reverse and knocked me over. I had minor injuries. I might have some other problems as a result of that accident. The next day I want to the dealer. Without looking at the car (no computer analysis), the service man told me the display and computer was bad. He said it happens a lot. He also quoted me a price of around $700. I went back to my daughter house to look for another dealer and to research the issue. (I was visiting from ca). At her house, I noticed the car would not shut off and I could not get the key out (the dealer rep told me to put the key in the slot). So I just went back to the dealer to have them fix it and pay the price. (it should be noted that the dealer and its employees never gave me the same information and they wanted me to get so frustrated, that I would leave with the car not repaired. They suggested that I take it somewhere else. At one point, they claimed that I told them I was going to take the car away without the repair. I never said that! they did everything they could to make me mad and so would not fix the car). When I went back to the dealers, the car drive away, again in reverse. I had to hop on one leg to keep up and get back in to stop it. In ether case, I could have been killed. No display, can't shut it off and it jumps into gear!! that is a safety issue! life and death issue it is!

Just purchased this car. There is a pungent odor in car resulting in dizziness and nauseous and it leaves a strong chemical odor on the hair and clothing for hours after being in the vehicle. It is a strong, plastics odor. I googled this and found it is a common issue. There was one post that explained very clearly what the issue is. Toyota has ignored the problem but it can cause physical harm due to the toxins in the air as a result of the problem.
