Which is the most annoying feature associated with dashboard???

[Yawesh]

the seatbelt thing takes the cake

[Hershey]

annoying rattles :rolleyes: . Fixed a few , some still linger :frown: .

Nothing on this list is annoying to me.....

exactly. Never seen the windshield fluid light, and the maintenance light is pretty convenient. The passenger buzz can get slightly annoying, so I guess that gets my vote

[SilverBack]

The passenger airbag light coming on whenever someone's riding with me, like it matters if they know as soon as they get in. If I wreck the car they'll still find out.

The airbag should still stay active even if there's no passenger. It would eliminate the "need" for an indicator light.

I would SOOOOooooo hate to be your child... Nothing like having an explosive powered airbag crushing your baby between the baby seat and the car seat..:bellyroll:

:laughabove:

[DerFlosser]

How about the cupholders positioned directly in front of the vents?

[Yarrris-Wench]

The cup holder thing is slightly annoying. If I've got a soda and the heater on... its not the best lol. If they were a little lower it might work much better, but I usually use the middle rear cup holder if thats the situation. Or freeze my thighs off :bellyroll:

If it was you I could do that for it's entertainment value :biggrin:

Realistically though if I did have a kid I wouldn't put him in the front seat to begin with

[Hershey]

find the high beam indicator too bright . Would like to be able to dim instrument cluster lower as well . Otherwise not such a big deal .

[Astroman]

Agreed, that stupid high beam indicator light is just to damn bright.

[2009BBPliftback]

I think having a temperature light as opposed to a gauge is the most annoying aspect to me.

You can, its the dimmer wheel under the electric mirror adjusters.

As for having kids in the front seat - isnt that illegal?

At first I found the center console kind of annoying, but I think I got used to that pretty quickly, a few days.

Now, I can't find anything wrong with the dashboard except it's missing a tach. :iono:

There is a thread on here somewhere about how to disable the seat belt sound on the passenger side. I end up just tying the seatbelt around the grocery bags, problem solved :thumbsup:

I think most annoying thing is how people complain about the small crap.....the Yairs is a cheaply made car. It is an entry level car. If you don't like something about it then why don't you trade it in and get a Lexus? I absolutely love everything about my Yairs and would not change anything about it. People complaning about their Yaris is the samething as people complaining about the quality of the clothes at the Goodwill or any hand-me down shop. GET OVER IT!!!!!!!

:cry: . :biggrin:

Safe groceries!

I agree!

I would just add to that the lack of a tach in my HB.
However, I added a tach and I'm happy with it.

[Lucas13]

I find the wiper stack is not in the best position is too close to the radio, sometimes I touch it and my wiper blades start moving with windshield totally dry and dusty, I already have some minor scratches on my windshield because of that.

[Yarrris-Wench]

Ouch.. I haven't had that problem yet. Key word: YET

[Kal-El]

You guys realize that every new car features the same dash indicators right? Many cars actually have more annoying indicators. They are all but required these days.

[cali yaris]

It gets worse when you yank out your ECU and run the car off a standalone.

I drive around with the following all constantly on:

1. Check Engine light
2. green "cold" blinking light
3. Power Steering light
4. Passenger seat belt light

:smile:

[MadMax]

The most (and practically only) annoying bit on the dash is the 'lights on' indicator. Why it doesn't dim like the rest of the instrument cluster I don't know...

[yaris-me]

I guess people do think of the Yaris as an entry level car. Mine has most of the options so it doesn't seem like a cheap car. I don't have any complaints and enjoy driving the Yaris. When I first got the car in 2007, there weren't many Yaris' around, but now I see them everywhere and now I don't feel so special.:cry::frown:

[djct_watt]

Thai RHD model here. . .

I don't like how the clock/fuel display and speedo are closest to the driver and the tach is extremely far away (but hey, at least we HAVE a tach). I also hate how we only have one power lock control on the driver's door. Too many stupid passengers can't figure out how to work a door lock end up getting stock and pulling the door handles hard.

But easily for me the most annoying feature of the dash, by far, is the non-telescope steering wheel.

The Thai model has dual airbags, but no passenger seatbelt indicator light. . . I've never heard of windshield fluid. . . sounds like brake oil or an exhaust filter. We are RHD so the lights on indicator is far away from line of sight. And finally the oil change light is REALLY easy to turn off. . . I mean, c'mon!

In America where the driver is on the proper side :wink: the tach is closest, then speedo and gas/clock.

I haven't found anything annoying about the Yaris.
