Notified Toyota Corp by customer service via phone. Issue with car jerking forward while in Park or in neutral, especially when cold and warming up. Car does not move more than an inch to two inches due to parking paw catching vehicle. Difficult electronic gear shift to operate. Issue with not being able to get car back into drive from neutral especially if on moving tracking car wash. Usually, I have to turn off car while vehicles in motion. This is very scary when another car is behind me. Last time the car wash had to come to a total stop until I put the car back into neutral. Notification to dealer about the issue.
Upon assessment of substantial amounts of wind noise emanating from driver-??s door (while driving at 45mph or higher), I noticed that air is entering the cabin through the door (you can feel it coming out the inside door handle). The dealership has been unable to determine the cause of the Air Noise, but I now have a concern that noxious gases from adjacent vehicles while sitting in heavy traffic could seep into the cabin in the same manner. I did notice that the door seal is not connected to the vehicle for several inches (see pic). Not sure if this is where the air is seeping through, but many reported that changing the seal had no impact on noise. Dealership seems clueless.
Unable to select Drive when car is moving from the neutral position especially if going through automatic car wash. I've had to stop the car totally to be able to move the car from neutral to drive. I also had to put the car in Park at times from neutral to get the car to shift into drive.This is extremely stressful and sometimes dangerous if a car is behind me. Notified Toyota Corporate and plan to take to Toyota Service to help diagnose why this is happening. Also, car has a tendency to move forward when warming up in park and the engine is cold. It does not go anywhere because the Parking mechanism keeps the car from moving anymore forward. This is less noticeable when the Parking Brake is on while car is warming up.
