The vehicle’s multimedia screen intermittently displays a message prompting to “enter 6-digit PIN.” This message frame appears randomly and covers the center of the screen, including while the vehicle is in motion. When this occurs, the navigation display becomes blocked, creating a potential safety hazard as the driver’s view of navigation instructions is obstructed. To clear the message, the driver must manually press the “X” icon and then reselect the map display. This action requires driver attention and physical interaction with the screen while driving, increasing the risk of distraction and compromising safe vehicle operation. The issue occurs unpredictably—sometimes after several days, sometimes within minutes, or even immediately after pressing X to close the message. This recur

On July 2, 2025, while driving at approximately 8:35 PM my 2024 Toyota Corolla Cross suddenly and unexpectedly came to a complete stop. The vehicle's Pre-Collision System (PCS) activated without any obstacle, pedestrian, or vehicle in front of me. I was decelerating at about 15–20 mph in clear weather and road conditions. The abrupt stop was extremely dangerous and could have caused a serious rear-end collision had another car been behind me. This created a significant safety risk to me and to others. I had already completed the Toyota recall related to the pre-collision/braking system weeks prior. Despite this, the malfunction still occurred. The issue has not yet been confirmed or reproduced by a dealer, but I have contacted Toyota and scheduled a full inspection. The vehicle is availa

We recently leased a 2024 Toyota Corolla Cross. While driving home on I4, there is a section of the road that has (longitudinal) grooves in the road surface between exits 118 and 129. The vehicle starts to bounce 'back and forth' in the lane, as if it wants to change lanes, but it stays in the lane, continually moving from side to side. No indication in the steering wheel that anything is wrong. We brought it to a Toyota dealer, and they said 'some cars have that problem on grooved surfaces, but nothing is wrong with the vehicle'. Thanks

January of 2025 the vehicle was put in drive and the vehicle shut down. "Power steering low egine stopped" message appeared. I Put the vehicle in park and started the car back up. I took it to the dealership. The battery was low they charged it and released it back.

The headlights on this vehicle are not safe. They have a shadow , or curtain over the top half of beam. This severely curtails your ability to see safely down the road. Going up to a hill, your ability to see road hazards are almost nill. You cannot see hazards to the side of vehicle , or above, either. My wife is a school bus driver, and is aware you should be able to see 15 seconds in front of you, or a city block. This vehicle totally fails to illuminate anything near that. And you cannot read street signs, unless they have their own lighting. We took it to the dealer. They adjusted the lights, which didn’t solve the problem, and now we are getting flashed by other drivers, and are causing road rage. Please help!

AWD Transmission slips when trying to "shift" and sometimes feels like it loses power while gas is applied. Already brought to dealer for service, and they confirmed it will need a new CVT transmission. This is only after 6 months of ownership. There was no indication on the dashboard lights that the transmission was about to fail, nor was this brought up during regular service intervals. This [XXX] we were travelling up on [XXX] past Baker and the car lost forward momentum, even though I was pressing fully on the gas pedal. We had to coast to the side of the road while the trucks were whizzing by, and had to be towed to the closest Toyota dealership in Las Vegas. At first, there were no warning lights, but after turning the engine off and then on, warnings about the AWD system, Check Engi

After turning left into a parking spot,car did not stop as usual.The car went over curb and hit a 'no overnight parking sign.The collision bent the sign pole and damaged my driver front black bumper. I was stunned and did not realize it was a vehicle error, at first. I have owned the vehicle 6 months and have had difficulty understanding the technical aspects of it. I searched online and found the recall, but have not been officially notified yet. I had a similar incident the first month i owned it. I turned left into a parking spot, the car did not stop until hitting bushes in front of me. At that time I thought it was my error. No, it has not been inspected. I was distraught and decided to leave it as is. This is very dangerous,as I could have hit a pedestrian or crashed down a hi

While returning home from an outing, I accelerated the gas to switch lanes and the check engine light came on, I heard a gravel like pop noise. And saw smoke coming from my car towards the back. A car next to me told me to pull over as my car was on fire. After finding a safe destination to pull over, the hood of my car and engine caught on fire. Thus resulting to a total loss of the car and assistance from the fire department as well as the police department to deal with the aftermath of the vehicle.

Toyota recall 24TA11 was performed by the dealership. It is a software update to help with braking under certain conditions. However, this update has led to the power tailgate not longer opening. This is an unintended side effect of the update. Several other instances of the tailgate failing after the software update have been reported. Toyota must fix this.

The vehicle, Toyota Corolla Cross seems to have an issue with stopping from a reasonable distance. Unlike other Toyota models, I find it difficult to stop the car in the stop signs and traffic lights with reasonable brake pressures.
