RAV4 HEV 2019 Autohold brake

[Dushio]

Apologies if this item has already been queried: When auto hold is selected and I come to a stop and am in traffic, sometimes the auto hold disengages and the car moves forward. Is this easily adjustable or is it a visit to the dealer? Many thanks in advance.

Whilst my car is the PHEV I'd guess they operate in a similar way. Once selected it takes a firm push on the brake  to operate the auto brake and that remains on unless it's been on for a while when I get a message that flashes up on the display saying to remain in brake hold re press the brake. I've found that this display time for the message is not long and if I miss it the brake comes off and I start to move.

I've also noticed that it takes very little accelerator pressure to switch off the auto brake, just resting my foot will deactivate sometimes.

Thanks for your response, your final paragraph is exactly the issue I have namely

‘I've also noticed that it takes very little accelerator pressure to switch off the auto brake, just resting my foot will deactivate sometimes.’

My other car is a Lexus UX250h, needless to say it doesn’t do it, hence my query as to whether something can be adjusted?

Many thanks.

The simplest adjustment would be to not rest your foot on the accelerator when stationary. Sorry if that sounds dismissive but the behaviour of the car is normal. Mine is the same. It's fine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Doctor, it's hurts when I do <this>.
Well, don't do <that> then.

Fair point 😄 but in my case my foot hovers (not touches) and sometimes the brake still releases by itself.
