The center console on my 2013 Toyota Avalon gets red hot on the sides and underneath the cup holders. The heat is intense. It seems hotter on the passenger side and for a larger area. It is still hot on the drivers side. The specific location of the heat is on the right and left side of the console just behind the gear shifter and right where the console runs goes next to the seat. Anyone else having this problem? Bringing this into the dealer tomorrow.
I suspect that the insulator that seals the selector lever to the floor and the lever inside the car is allowing engine heat ,road heat to enter the cab past the gear lever. IT is common problem if the insulator rots or is not replaced after gear box removal say for clutch replacement.
Sounds like exhaust heat getting past insulator. Car will still be under warranty anyway won't it?

It sounds silly but there is a separate unit in your console that you can only turn off if you go in from back seats. You probably already did that, but if not try. You can not turn it off from any controls on front panel. If it doesn't work, I would think something is wrong with the switch. Open it up and look at wire connection from switch regulator. It also has a heat regulator on the console facing back seats? Mine does anyways.

Check all your fuses in the fuse box. A fuse must have cut off.

Check the front lights. Usually if i flashes fast it indicate a bulb is out on that side.

you know if i had a 2008 toyota with a 5 year bumper to bumper and a 10 year drive train warranty i would take it to a dealer if i had a problem with it.
sounds like a screwed up wiper linkage, and that is no doubt a dealer part, so again i would take it to a dealer.
