Symptoms are a dead car after sitting, or ghost electrical faults. Replacement is a normal DIY with an AGM of the same size. Typical cost: $200-$350. 5 more issues are reported in other 2018-2024 years: Denso low-pressure fuel pump failure (recall) (2018-2020); Brake booster vacuum pump failure (recall) (2018-2019); 2.5L engine block porosity coolant leak (recall) (2020); 8-speed transmission hesitation / harsh low-speed shifts (2018-2019 (most complaints)); Entune 3.0 infotainment freezing / blank screen (2018-2019).

Its main documented weak spots are a torque-converter shudder on early 6-speeds and brake-actuator failures on hybrids. 5L (0W-16 oil), an 8-speed automatic, LED headlights on every trim, and a long recall list early on (Denso fuel pump, brake vacuum pump) that Toyota fixed for free. 5L hybrid, FWD or AWD, rated around 44-53 mpg. 3, lug torque stays 76 ft-lbs, the key fob takes a CR2032, and hybrids hide a separate small 12V battery apart from the high-voltage pack, usually in the trunk. Maintenance is simple and interval-driven: 10,000-mile synthetic oil changes, 30,000-mile air and cabin filters, coolant at 100k then every 50k, and iridium spark plugs at 120k.
