2023 TOYOTA COROLLA CROSS Complaints

When stopping at a traffic light, suddenly the engine shut off by itself and showed message saying: "Engine Stopped. Steering Power Low.". I had to switch to park and pushed the start button manually to restart the engine. This is a safety issue! Note, it happened twice after only purchasing the brand new car for 2 days. Both happened on rainy day with wiper on.

Twice, at a stop, the engine turned itself off. The car dash alerted the engine turned itself off and the warning alert sounded. The car/ignition key had to be turned off, then on to restart the vehicle. The first incident we had about 50-60 miles on the car. Today’s incident we had about 1080 miles on the vehicle. Our issue is similar to this. Both times we did not notice if the “low steering” indicator was present. We were too shocked and hurried to notice. https://youtu.be/3Pf4g40bYas

Stopped at red light in the rain, windshield wipers and auto stop/start feature was active. Engine shuts off as normal, but did not restart when removing pressure from brakes as it should. Dash beeped and flashed "power steering low" engine light and power steering light come on. Steering wheel was very stiff, but I was able to coast through the light to the side of the road. I put the car in park and attempted a restart. I believe it was the second attempt before the car would restart.

While driving the car stop working in the middle of the road, took a minute to restart the car in heavy traffic. Have happened three time now and scare to drive.

I was driving my brand new 2023 Corolla Cross FWD L Trim on a highway when I stopped at a red light. I have the Stop/System enabled on my car to get better gas mileage, but suddenly the steering wheel locked and the car would not start again when the light turned green. The "Check Engine" light came on and the dashboard told me to "Press Firmly on Brake to Restart Engine". I did this multiple times with no success. The dashboard also said that my "Steering Power was Low". I had to turn the car on and off again with my key in order to get it to work. Luckily, there was not much traffic when I was out, but this was an incredibly dangerous situation. It was also raining outside. I have only had my car for two weeks and it has 180 miles on it at this point. This is the first time it has happened for me, but I have seen a concerning number of people report the same problem for this car.

Hi there. Problems occurred in first month from my car purchase. problems are: 1. Engine shutting off while I am stopping at red light. happened two times. 2. blind spot monitor works intermittently. almost get in a deadly accident assuming they are working. 3. automatic breaks failed to work or not working as they are supposed to.

This car is experiencing the same issues of the engine shut off malfunction from the 2022 Corolla Cross model. I just got this car and it’s been happening where while i’m stopped at a intersection, the malfunction happens, tells me that something is wrong with the steering fluid, i have to put the car in park, turn off the entire car, turn it back on, and it works. This is has been a huge concern for us drivers and is extremely unsafe while driving. Many commented how it might be a bad battery cell from toyota, but this needs to get fixed ASAP!

There is no rear windshield wiper blade. Visibility is basically zero out of the back window unless it is sunny. It is extremely dangerous never being able to see out your rear window. If any rain, sleet, snow, mud, dirt, deicer gets on my rear window it is impossible to see. There is no reason why a brand new 2023 crossover vehicle does not have a rear windshield wiper, it is incredibly dangerous and accidents will be caused due to this. This is a safety feature I didn't even realize I needed until after I bought the vehicle and went to clean off the back window and realized it was impossible to do while driving.

Stopped at a stop light, light turned green, push gas pedal and car alarmed with beeping and yellow warning lights. The car had turned off by itself. Put it in park and pushed start/stop and it started and I drove away.

I was driving during the snow storm, my front sensor stopped working because it was covered in snow. That warning popped up on my dash screen and the warning light was on, after about half hour, the front collision warning light also turned on. I had not been able to stop to clean the sensor. I stopped about an hour after the original warning light came on, my start/ stop battery charge came on the dash, and then I got a dash warning that said "steering power low" and "engine stopped" and then "press brake peddle firmly to restart engine" I attempted to start it by pushing down on the brake, that did not work. I had to shift into park, turn the key off and turn the key back on for the engine to restart.
