    After entering an address, i deceided not to go there. The gps cannot be readdressed or deleted with a simple comand. It is most distracting to hear the repetition of the previous address while driving. No one person at the dealership could give instructions to delete the gps, except to turn it off.

    The gas tank will not fill to the full capacity and gauge is inaccurate. The fuel tank size is 14 gallons but i discovered after owning the car for a month that the tank will not fill completely in fact it only fills to 10 gallons meaning the stated vehicle range is false advertising. I have contacted toyota and opened a case but receive no update or feedback.
