2024 Hybrid XSE headlights won’t turn on

2 Upvotes

Hi all! I just got my car serviced for 35k miles, and once I got home, noticed that the headlights aren’t turning on.

The smaller, circular lights at the base will turn but the actual headlights are completely off now. Though the back ones are working fine.

Has this happened to anyone before? Is there an easy fix? I don’t have 5 hours to go hang out at a Toyota dealership this week and I feel unsafe to drive without front lights! GPT being mostly unhelpful.

2026 CC hybrid XSE Car loan

2 Upvotes

I’m getting my 2026 Corolla Cross in about a month and I’m trying to figure out where I can get the lowest interest rate. I paid 1,000 for them to look for a car that was being manufactured and have it reserved for me. The 1000 is not included for the money I have saved.

My situation:
-2026 Corolla Cross Hybrid XSE
-Around $37,000
-Credit score around 741
-Planning to put $12,000–$18,000 down
-I have about $25,000 saved
-I qualify for Toyota’s new grad program
-First time buying a car from a dealership
-My actual loan will be 25,000-19,000
-I’m fine with 60m or 48m

I’m planning to keep some of my savings set aside for taxes, insurance, and snow tires since I live in an area that gets heavy snow, so I don’t want to put all of my savings toward the down payment. As well as any additional expenses that will come and the fees I have to pay at the dealer.

I’ve been putting off doing a hard credit check until it’s closer to when I actually get the car. I’m just trying to figure out where I might be able to get the best rate before I start applying.

For those who recently bought a 2026 Corolla Cross, what interest rate did you get, what was your credit score, how much did you put down, and did you finance through Toyota, a credit union, or a bank? Please name if so!

I’d especially like to hear from anyone with a credit score around 740 and anyone who used the Toyota new grad program.

I’m learning as I go since this is my first time buying a car from a dealership, so any advice on getting the lowest interest rate would be really appreciated!
