    My Trail Edition 2023 just experienced having the Accessory Mode all the time. Push Button Switch does not turn it off at P.
    No after market parts.
    I disconnected the battery overnight and its still the same.
    Brought it to the dealership and waiting for a solution.

    i read in other threads unplug anything connected Cig outlet… i dont have anything connected to it.
    I unplugged the USB cable as well…

    Anyone experienced this problem and resolved it?
    Thanks

    Don't think I've ever seen this in person....

    But I follow a Toyota Dealer Tech on IG and he just posted how a Rav 4 was staying awake/on without the key....
    Vehicle owner had a Cig Light USB charger(that contained a battery) that was actually feeding the battery power to the vehicle while it was off...
    In turn, the Vehicle stayed awake/on.. I believe it was draining the battery,

    Trans not recognizing it is in Park is my guess. Whatever causes that I’ve read about the issue once or twice here.
