>2019 RAV4 and the thing has been pretty great except the software in it was hot garbage
Wife has a 2021 Highlander Hybrid, and the software glitched to give her a no seatbelt warning for all seats in the vehicle when no one was there. She took it to the dealership, and they couldn't fix the software glitch, but they "were able to disable the audible alarm - that'll be $150." Fortunately she was on speaker, so I took the phone and said:
"Wait, you didn't solve the problem, you just disabled the audible alarm? So you're doing the mechanic's equivalent of pulling the Check Engine bulb and you want to charge us for it?"
Long story short they dropped the charge. They didn't even disable the alarm that comes up on the HUD showing unbelted occupants.
I totally agree that Toyota is fucking up. Hopefully they turn it around and don't go full John Deere "ride the rep" til the brand is unrecognizable.
