2026 Toyota C-HR Problems

1.The vehicle’s 12-volt battery/electrical system has malfunctioned. The battery became completely discharged after the vehicle was sitting for approximately one day , leaving me unable to start the vehicle. The vehicle is a 2026 Toyota C-HR, and I was extremely concerned because I had no reasonable expectation that a nearly new vehicle would become inoperable simply from sitting for a short period. The vehicle and battery are available for inspection upon request. 2. This failure created a serious safety concern because the vehicle became completely inoperable without warning after sitting for only one day. I rely on this vehicle for transportation, and a sudden electrical/battery failure could leave me stranded in an unsafe or remote location, potentially without the ability to start the vehicle or leave the area. I consider this a significant safety issue, particularly because I was not adequately informed that I would need to take extraordinary measures to prevent the battery from draining. 3 Yes. After the battery failed, I was able to get the vehicle jump-started and drove it directly to Dalton Toyota for inspection. The dealership was made aware of the battery failure and the circumstances under which it occurred. I was subsequently told that I should either disconnect/remove the battery or slow-charge it, which does not provide me with confidence that the underlying problem has actually been resolved. 4. The vehicle was inspected by Dalton Toyota, the selling/dealership service facility. I brought the vehicle to the dealership immediately after experiencing the battery failure. I have not had the vehicle inspected by police or an insurance representative. 5.There were no adequate warning messages or warning lamps alerting me that the 12-volt battery was about to fail. The vehicle had been sitting for one day, and when I attempted to use it, the battery was dead and the vehicle would not start.

The 12 Volt battery failed and the car was therefore not responsive after it was parked for 1 week. Had to jump start the car at 1AM. The car is brand new (purchased in June 2026). The battery should obviously not fail so soon. The dealer confirmed that the battery failed test with a DCA tester and replaced the battery.

When driving at both low and high way speeds the head lights shake and flutter excessively. I get highbeam flashes from people I’m passing I can see the lights shaking on the cars In front of me. Toyota knows about this problem and won’t do anything

Headlights shake at speeds and over bumps/potholes. Have tested with friend and they said it looks like I’m flashing my high beams rapidly when it’s just the cars headlight beam pattern shaking like the light is loose. Vehicle has not been inspect but service is due soon. Will inform dealership about the issue.
