One interesting thing is that my Prius will continue to drive at low speeds if the key is not even in the car at all. Here’s what a few other members said.Įric Scott said,” Maybe after a restart with a break it will correct itself.” My 2012 Prius seems to respond well to this. The signal between the key fob and the car not being strong or cutting out is pretty common in almost every push to start the car. Kind of early to replace fob battery but things happen.” Group member Chuck Kluzynski responded saying, “Hold the key over the start button. Any ideas? The car is a 2021 RAV 4 hybrid." The car is running and the keys are right below the temperature knobs as you can see in the pic. Nicole Karen, a Facebook group member of the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid group asked whether this was normal or not. Some people also like to get aftermarket key fobs with a little screen or maybe a cool paint job. We recently wrote an article about the warranty and use of mods. And on a brand-new car, it's either a key problem itself or the car’s computer isn’t talking to the key. A key fob battery usually lasts anywhere from 3-4 years. However, this problem is very uncommon in brand new cars. Usually, this is due to a signal loss or a bad battery. You’ll get a bunch of beeping and bopping and won’t be able to focus until you either dangle your keys above your dash or in my Prius, I give my dash a little love tap it works fine.
On most push-to-start vehicles, the car will remain on when driving if the key fob isn’t detected. Little battery-operated remotes that basically tell your car, “Hey you can start, this guy isn’t going to steal you.” Unless he stole your keys then it might be taken a little differently.
