BOTH BLIND SPOT MONITORING AND CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT - MALFUNCTION ALERTS, KEEPS POPPING UP REGULARLY. MULTIPLE TRIPS TO THE DEALER, WITH NO RESOLUTION. TOYOTA INDICATES THAT THIS IS A PROB AND ARE WORKING ON AN SOLUTION. IT IS NOT CLEAR WHAT THAT IS. SEEMS LIKE ISSUE POPS UP MORE WHEN IT IS VERY COLD OR VERY WET. TOYOTA SAYS THEY ARE LOOKING INTO IT, BUT NOT SURE WHAT THEIR PLAN IS. TOYOTA CASE #1901292206 FOR TODAY.
REPORTED THIS TO DEALER. THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG AT THE TIME. KEEPS HAPPENING : BLIND SPOT MONITORING AND CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT MALFUNCTION ALERTS
THIS VEHICLES BLIND SPOT MONITOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS NOT OPERATIONAL AND DOES NOT SHOW VEHICLES IN THE BLIND SPOT ON THE MIRROR OVER 70% OF THE TIME GIVING THE DRIVER A FALSE SENSE THE LANE IS CLEAR. IT APPEARS THE SYSTEM GETS WORSE THE LONGER YOU DRIVE AND ALMOST NO USABLE WHEN DRIVING OVER 40 MILES. THE DRIVER SIDE BLIND SPOT MONITOR SYSTEM WORKS AS IT SHOULD. UPON SOME RESEARCH ON LINE, IT APPEARS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND TOYOTA INDICATES IT WORKS TO SPECS, BUT BASED OFF THE FACTORY MANUAL DOES NOT.
THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. AFTER FILLING THE VEHICLE, A VERY STRONG GAS ODOR EMITS FROM THAT GAS TANK NEAR THE GAS CAP. AFTER PARKING IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT, THE ENTIRE GARAGE HAS A VERY STRONG ODOR AND IT EVEN LEAKS INTO THE HOUSE. DEALERSHIP HAS INSPECTED AND SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG, BUT IT IS DANGEROUS AS THERE HAS TO BE A LEAK OR SEAL ISSUE.
