Toyota Avalon hybrid problems

toyota logo

The Toyota Avalon (Japanese: トヨタ・アバロン, Hepburn: Toyota Abaron) is a full-size sedan produced by Toyota. It is Toyota's largest front-wheel drive sedan and serves as its flagship sedan in the United States, Canada, China and the Middle East. It was also produced in Australia from April 2000 until June 2005, when it was replaced in November 2006 by the Aurion. The first production Avalon rolled off the TMMK assembly line in Georgetown, Kentucky, in September 1994, and subsequent generations have all been manufactured at the Kentucky location to date.

Toyota marketed the Avalon as a replacement for the Cressida, a model discontinued for the American market in 1992. While the Cressida was an upper-level mid-size rear-wheel drive car with a straight-six engine, the Avalon is front-wheel drive, powered by a V6 engine. In recent years, there has been considerable overlapping with its platform mates, the Camry V6 and the Lexus ES, although the third-generation and subsequent Avalon was distinguished by offering extra legroom due to its extended-length chassis. From 2013, the Lexus ES was moved to the extended platform to match the Avalon.

As of 2013, the Avalon was sold in the United States, Canada, China, South Korea and the Middle East. It was discontinued in the United States in 2022.

Avalon is a legendary island featured in the Arthurian legend, fitting it in with Toyota's tradition of naming their sedans the word for "crown" in various languages (Crown, Corona, Camry, Corolla), types of crowns (Tiara), or other things associated with royalty (Scepter).

Common Toyota Avalon hybrid problems

The Toyota Avalon Hybrid is a popular car known for its luxurious feel and dependability. However, there have been some common problems reported by owners, primarily involving issues with the braking and acceleration of earlier models.

One issue that has been reported is unintended acceleration, which is usually caused by problems with the electronics controlling the car's powertrain. This most commonly happens when the car is shifting gears, when cruise control is disengaged, or when the brakes are engaged. If you experience this issue, it is recommended that you take your car to a mechanic as soon as possible.

Another problem that has been reported is issues with the suspension. Signs of suspension issues include the car leaning back, nose-diving or leaning to one side, or the wear on the tires being uneven. A damaged suspension can mean a bumpy ride, so it is important to diagnose and catch the problem early before it becomes a major inconvenience.

There have also been complaints about problems with the interior accessories of the Avalon Hybrid. However, there have been no major problems reported for the most recent models, which have received great reviews so far.

In addition to these issues, the Avalon Hybrid has been subject to several recalls over the years, including recalls for the accelerator pedal and airbag inflator. It is important to check if any used Avalon you are considering purchasing is still subject to necessary repairs as a result of these recalls.

Overall, while the Toyota Avalon Hybrid is a reliable and dependable car, it is important to be aware of these common problems and to have your car regularly serviced to prolong battery life and catch any early warning signs of problems.

  • Summary: I recently took my car in for maintenance and I was offered a complimentary car wash. 1 week after the wash, I noticed there were cloth fibers stuck between the rear side body panels. When i pulled them out, there was evidence of rust and corrosion right underneath. I suspected the cloth fibers were from the dealership's car wash so i contacted them. They confirmed the fibers are from their machine but claimed the rust is caused by a pre-existing problem (there is a small gap between the side body that was noted in the pre-inspections), when asked if the rust was noted during pre-inspections as well, they refused to answer my question. There was no evidence of rust or corrosion on the car before this incident and there are other fibers stuck in the side body panels as well which i haven't taken out yet. I have previously taken my car through car washes but this incident has never happened before. Toyota's service center refuses to look into the matter further.

This car was just serviced three months prior for regular maintenance and the vehicle had no indicated issues at that time and was inspected again by the same Toyota Dealership.

Latest negative Toyota Avalon hybrid car reviews

  1. Cody Breitenberg 2024-11-18

    Vehicle year: 2015

    Toyota, we kindly suggest improving the comfort of the front seats. After driving for half an hour or more, the lack of cushioning and/or poor design can cause discomfort to the driver and passenger. We hope you can take this feedback into consideration.

  2. Haleigh O'Hara 2024-10-29

    Vehicle year: 2015

    The 2014 Avalon has undergone significant changes from its predecessors, resulting in a smaller back seat and increased road noise. However, the Toyota Prius offers a more spacious back seat for taller individuals. Additionally, the Camry is a smaller alternative to the Avalon. Our team of experts at Toyota is constantly working to improve our designs and we appreciate your feedback.

  3. Malcolm Roberts 2024-10-01

    Vehicle year: 2016

    I was recommended the Toyota Avalon, which is supposed to be a luxury vehicle similar to the Lexus brand. However, I found that the comfort and convenience did not match up to a true luxury vehicle, and the price seemed too high. Additionally, the Toyota line's use of 'Entune' instead of Android Auto or Apple CarPlay was a disadvantage, although they are moving away from this decision on 2020 models. The proprietary mapping system was also inferior to what is available on smartphones today. Despite this, I have not received any communication from Toyota about my lease ending or purchasing the vehicle, although I have received offers on my previous vehicle, a Toyota Highlander, which I turned in three years ago. I would recommend exploring other options instead of the Avalon.

  4. Leonard Gislason 2024-09-07

    Vehicle year: 2015

    Overall, the car is okay, but it can be quite noisy and the Nav/Radio function is unresponsive at times. It also takes a while to turn on. While the mileage is good, it's not quite up to the advertised standards. Additionally, the side visibility is poor and the Nav location is not ideal. However, we appreciate the effort put into this car and hope that these issues can be addressed in future models.

  5. Jameson Bartoletti 2024-09-02

    Vehicle year: 2018

    I hope you don't mind me saying, but I think the price of this vehicle is a bit high and it may look a bit outdated. Have you considered the 2019 model? Also, the interior electronics may not be as up-to-date as some of the newer models out there.

Latest positive Toyota Avalon hybrid car reviews

  1. Adelbert Zieme 2024-11-28

    Vehicle year: 2013

    The hybrid Avalon is rated to get 39 to 40 miles per gallon. I have 4000 miles on my new hybrid. During the first 2500 miles, I averaged 33.5 miles per gallon on the interstate at 75 mph. However, during the last 1000 miles, I was able to achieve an average of 34.5 miles per gallon at 59 mph. In my opinion, the extra money for a hybrid is not worth it.

  2. Demarco Yundt 2024-11-26

    Vehicle year: 2013

    Everything is excellent! The touchpad for heating and air conditioning may be a little touchy at first, but you'll get used to being more accurate in where you press on the screen. This is the most comfortable car I have ever ridden in. I love driving it because it makes my back feel better.

  3. Verner Jacobs 2024-11-25

    Vehicle year: 2016

    Since buying this hybrid auto, we have fallen in love with it! It's not perfect, but then again, neither is the more expensive Mercedes. What we do have is a super high quality, fuel efficient, reliable, and comfortable car that was reasonably priced compared to its competitors at Lexus, BMW, and others.

  4. Rosario Stokes 2024-11-24

    Vehicle year: 2015

    I've only had the car for 4 weeks, but I already love how comfortable and economical it is. I've owned an Avalon for 17 years, and it seems like this one will be just as reliable, but with more comfort features and better fuel efficiency.

  5. Percival Borer 2024-11-23

    Vehicle year: 2015

    Hi there! I noticed that you recently purchased a car that was listed as 'used' with only 77 miles on the odometer. According to the Carfax report, the car had been at a Toyota dealer for 13 months before being sold at auction to another Toyota dealer near you. The great news is that the car still has the balance of the factory warranty, with 33 months remaining out of the original 36. Enjoy your new ride!
