Typical electrical symptoms owners report

  • Screens and power intermittently shut off while driving, sometimes at a stop light, then restart on their own after the vehicle is put in park.
  • Some owners report the auto-stop/start feature causing the engine to shut down at a stop sign, requiring multiple restart attempts along with a power steering failure warning.
  • Key fob detection failures prevent starting or trigger repeated 'no key detected' alarms and hybrid system warnings that can persist for over 30 minutes.
  • Several owners report premature 12-volt battery failure, with the car dying repeatedly even after battery replacement.
  • Exterior lighting complaints include dim or non-functional tail lights, brake lights that don't fully illuminate, and headlights with an uneven beam pattern that limits visibility at night.
  • One owner reported the touchscreen display brightening instead of dimming in automatic mode after dark, making it harder to see outside the vehicle.
