C $800
Car had to be boosted 3x. Initial checks found nothing wrong. After 3rd time battery was found weak and was replaced, 
2000 mi Audio/Video in-dash radio display stopped working. Screen is off, no settings or backup camera etc. They had to order new in-dash display/radio from manufacturer NOT toyota. 
7440 mi Aftermarket electric brake control causes error to appear on screen. Also caused cruise control to stop working. All safety sense to stop working. They say they need to run tests with my trailer attached to do a proper diagnostic. The problem is that my trailer is in storage 4 hours away, so it'll have to wait until spring. I'm pretty sure that they are full of crap, but I don't have the energy to fight with them. 
93 mi Tire pressure warning light will not turn off. Must return for sensor replacement. 
62 mi The tire pressure warning sensor light would not turn off. The technician re-registered the sensor with main computer model. 
3720 mi The tire pressure warning light comes on regularly when the temperature falls below freezing. It goes off when it gets a bit warmer. Update: started keeping the pressure at least 36 psi.
