2024 Crown Hybrid system keeps popping up on dash saying warm lamp came on twice: third time Warning lamp turned. Vehicle has been serviced twice at same dealer and then taken to another for same problem. The problem has not been resolved. Dealership indicates cannot duplicate problem. I have even shown the dealership from photo and not able to resolve.Owner report · Engine · May 2026
I was backing up the vehicle into a driveway and then again the screen went blank and no back up lights as well. This vehicle had just been back from the dealer and they had requested photos which I did immediately and back to the dealer for about the 6th time for the same issue.Owner report · Back Over Prevention · Jan 2026

I had Hold feature engaged during a I-70 construction traffic stop. after 7 or 8 minutes auto rolled forward by it's self and something like eps turned on. I was floored at this hazzard and it could have killed someone, if they were infront of my auto.Owner report · Steering · Nov 2025
Intermittently as I press on the brake, the engine loses power, engine feels like it is going to die and the charge meter on the dash display drops to no charge. Right before the engine dies the engine regains charge on the dash display charge meter and the engine returns to normal. So far the engine has never totally died on me yet.Owner report · Engine · Oct 2025
When starting into traffic from a dead stop - stop sign, merging, traffic light - the car hesitates acceleration. It stumbles and shudders like it has run out of gas for h n it has not. This puts me in danger when pulling out into traffic since the car does not take off properly. The car has 16,151 miles on it and this issue has begun within the last 60 days. It has had no previous problems. I have not yet taken it to a dealer. There are no warning lights lit wh n this happens. The date below is the most recent.Owner report · Engine · Jul 2025
2024 Crown Platinum 5k miles. This incident has happened several times. The car will completely stall out, have no power, won't move. It's random at times and other times it after a stop sign, yield, or slow down in speed. When you go to give it gas you have to stick the gas pedal to the floor and pray it will go. It always comes out of it, but takes a few seconds to get it together. It's like it doesn't know what mode it's in- hybrid or power, so it sits and thinks about it. This could be deadly in the right situation.Owner report · Fuel/Propulsion System · Dec 2024
The contact owns a 2024 Toyota Crown. The contact stated that while attempting to accelerate from a stop, the vehicle hesitated while accelerating. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that no cause for the failure was found with the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 7,000.Owner report · Engine · Oct 2024
When the car is cold the brake is applied, the start button is pushed, the engine starts. The transmission is set to either drive or reverse, the gas pedal is lightly pushed where the brake is still applied by the car. If acceleration further to get moving, the car lurches forward (startling the driver). I nearly hit my garage front wall.Owner report · Service Brakes · Sep 2024
When driving off from a stop it seemed like my car was hesitating when pressing the gas. Has done this a few times now, the first time I was not sure if that happened or not. But after about the fifth time I'm like what's going on. I have just over 4000 miles on my car. When you pull out in traffic and your car won't pickup speed you're waiting for a rear end collision. I was reading online where others have had the same problem. When I go for my 5000 mile check will ask the dealer about it but I'm sure they will say no not any problems. Has happened more than 5 times now but not every time I am driving.Owner report · Fuel/Propulsion System · Aug 2024
