Common Problem

TL;DR
• Some owners report issues with the stop/start system and stalling, often related to the use of windshield wipers. • Occasional problems with the air conditioning system and water leaks have been noted. • Software updates are sometimes necessary to resolve these issues.
Stop/Start System and Stalling
A recurring issue among Toyota Corolla Cross owners is the car stalling when the stop/start system is engaged, particularly when the windshield wipers are in use. This problem has been linked to a software bug that causes the engine to stall after coming to a stop while the wipers are running in intermittent mode. Many users reported this issue occurring during rainy conditions, which suggests a correlation between the wiper operation and the malfunction.
Air Conditioning and Compressor Issues
Some owners have experienced problems with the air conditioning system, where it blows hot air due to a non-functioning compressor, despite no apparent refrigerant leaks. This issue may be more prevalent in the first model year as manufacturers work out initial kinks.
Water Leaks and Wind Noise
There have been reports of water leaking into the vehicle, particularly through the roof or windshield, leading to soaked headliners and potential water damage. Additionally, some owners have complained about wind noise, which could be related to alignment or sealing issues.
Software Updates and Technical Service Bulletins
Several users have mentioned that software updates can resolve some of the stalling and stop/start issues. A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) was released to address the interference caused by the wipers on the start/stop ECU, suggesting that an ECU reflash might solve the problem.
Warranty and Dealer Interactions
Owners have expressed frustration with dealerships being unable or unwilling to diagnose and fix these issues promptly. It's important for owners to be assertive and insist on warranty repairs, especially if the vehicle is still under warranty. In some cases, pursuing lemon laws might be advisable if the issues persist without resolution.
