Consumer Description

The car is at 58,125 miles and I’ve had a “engine maintenance required, please take to dealership” message for the past 3 months which will not go away and is just stuck on my dash. An OB2 port scanner shows nothing wrong, but after a diagnosis at toyota it appears I need a new engine coolant bypass valve. As it turns out, many other corolla, rav 4, and camry owners of the same generation (2020 and up) also receive the message and need to get the coolant bypass valves replaced around 30k-60k miles.
