What bugs you the most about your CT?
#17
The initial issue I had was making minor adjustments of the intermittent feature at night when there was variable intermittent rain/drizzle. The rx330 had auto wipers which spoiled me. Being sick and short on sleep I found myself making the adjustment in the wrong direction several times. Yes a quibble and yes minor.

Picked mine up today and drove about 100 miles. Very happy so far. Did notice that it didn't seem like the auto dimming rear view mirror didn't seem to dim the head lights. Will do more testing on that one, might have a bad mirror.

Make sure it's turned on. There's a green LED that lights up when activated.

You know what's bugging me now? The cheapo floor mats that come standard with the vehicle. They are so thin and flimsy that they twist around whenever I pivot my feet while getting out of the car. They are securely anchored near the base of the seat, but they tend to lift up and get caught up in the pedals upon egress. I've tried putting double-sided tape underneath the mat and it helps to some degree.
First of all, with all the floor mat troubles Toyota has had recently, you think they'd have paid a little more attention to this issue. Second, since it looks like I'll end up buying the "Premium" mats, I'd much rather they bundled the nice mats in with the cargo mat and net.
Am I the only one having this problem?

Gas Gauge Is Off
I have only one issue with my ct. I went on a road trip and drove until the gas light came on. The maunal says the light should come on when there is 1.8 gallons or less left in the tank and that the tank is 11.9 gallons. When I filled up I could only put in 8.5 gallons. Which means the light came on with 3+ gallons left. Has anybody else had this issue?

The uncovered cup holders and the tiny, cheap volume ***** bother me a little.
The worst would probably be the beeping when in reverse. Drives me nuts. I'm told it can be turned off at the dealer, though.
Still love my CT to death.

Must be the dealer turned my reverse beep off as mine doesn't beep (thank God). That was one of the first things the wife noticed different from her Prius. She hates the beep and her dealer would not turn it off.

If they tell you they can't change it, show them the manual and threaten to call corporate. Better yet, ask them to change it before you fill out the survey. There's no way I'm living with those godawful beeps.

My biggest gripe is the location of the USB port. Why put it in the middle of the console? I have a dedicated iPod I use exclusively in the car. I hate having wires laying around or the thought of my iPod sitting out in plain sight all the time.
It took about 2 hours, a Dremel with a flexible extension, my daughter's help, and a moderately bloody pinky, but I was finally able to rout an Apple USB cable from the port to the inside of the cubby. Of course, I had to "re-engineer" the cable to make it lower profile so the cover over the ports would still close.
I imagine their thought was that you'd be using your phone in the provided device holder, so you'd want the port near that. However, I don't really see myself needing to charge my iPhone while I'm driving, and if I did, my iPod would already be using the USB port, so charging would have to be done through the 12V outlet.
