2013 Auto FRS stalling?
 
I searched around the forums but haven't found an answer yet so I hope someone here can help me out. So basically what happen was, I was at a stop and then when it was my turn to go i stepped on the gas and my car stalled, i put it back in park turned it back on and it wouldn't turn on even after four-five tries. After turning back on I realized that the passenger side window button was dead so I can't use it anymore. After that my car stalled 6 more times before i finally was able to get on the freeway. Does anyone know what the problem is with my car?

Thank you!

could be anything from bad gas to the Cam failure issue that has been documented with the twins. Any codes?

Like said, could be bad gas ...... but, I'd suggest it's time to make a visit to the dealer ....:(

The passenger side window issue is probably just the window lock being engaged. Just press the window lock button again and the light for the passenger window will turn back on and it should work.

As far as the stalling goes, is your car stock? It could be bad gas, as I had the same issue with my car (albeit mine is manual). If it's not gas though, your car should be throwing a code which should help identify what the issue is.

Sorry guys didn't know I got any replies. Bad gas I wouldn't think so I pump the premium gas from Chevron. As for the right hand passenger you guys know how the button lits up auto? It is completely off and my Left hand side is fine. I started up my car this morning and it wouldn't start so I thought it was my battery so I jump started it and nothing. I can't bring it to the dealer since its completely dead. I'm calling them tomorrow to see if can tow my car to the dealer.

Code wise do you guys mean CEL ? I have nothing after that.

Not entirely related, but actually the window lock button only locks the passenger side from what the manual says. Good luck

Thanks V_86. I'm hoping they can fix it I"ve never heard of any such problem happening.

Even Chevron can have bad gas. Don't let the marketing get to you!

Ohh... I thought when you guys said bad gas I thought you meant like no name brand gas lol. But would the gas really cause my car to do this much damage to my car?

My bad gas experience was from an Exxon; it's possible anywhere. Mine never got to the point of not starting though. Check for a vacuum leak somewhere or if there's something wrong with your MAF or MAP sensor.

Fasure I'll give toyota a call tomorrow morning so they can tow my car to their dealership. I'll keep you guys posted.
