    Should I be concerned ? I started the car as usual, no dash lights or system monitor appeared for approximately 20 long seconds. I thought the battery was dead, then the display came on , all appeared normal.
    Thankyou.

    The battery seems fine, only 33,000 miles on the car.....had a Tbone (driver side) collision in May and wondering if this might be an issue after the fact.....only happened once (so far).
    No other issues except radio display shut down last week .....Toyota ran a diagnositc and found nothing out of the norm.
