Check the fuse box for the dome lights. For your remote, maybe you need a new battery, but the dealer should be able to take care of this for you. As far as your neons go, I don't think those will void your warranty.

Betcha 10 bucks its the fuse. Both domes stop working because they use the same fuse.

some dealerships are notorious for not giving loaners! (they say, if your car is left overnight, then they will give you one). bet you its a fuse and you'll have your car by the end of the same day...

i went to go see wuts happening and they said some of the fuses went out adn something about the relay or something short-circuiting.. and he blamed it on the neon...im sure it wasn't from the neon though.. i was about to take the car back home cuz they wren't gonna recieve the relay parts for another 2 days or so then i noticed my right low-beam wasn't workin..is it possible thats its from a fuse? im really hoping the light didn't go out...i dont want to have to purchase another one..it wasn't my stock one either...it was the nokya one i had both..damn dealer...i just left the car there and came home pissed. they said they will give me a call tomarrow

you gotta bad toyota dealer by the sounds of it.

dosent your dealer have a shuttle service? Hell if my cars gonna be more than an hour they ask if i want a ride to and from home from some old guy in a sienna. They take ya home if ya live close or to the commuter train station if your on your way to work. They will come and pick you up when its all done as well. My extended service plan will get me a loaner as well no matter how long they intend to work on the car.

i think its complimentary drop off and pickup if you live in the 5 mile radius...i live beyond 5 miles, hence dealerships by my place usually drop me off at home, but don't come back to pick me up! its ok, my extended warranty provides up to $25 worth of car rental, last time that entailed a brand new f150 for a week (cus my stereo was out) LOL!

I had the exact same symptoms when I first bought mine...along with a clock that kept resetting to 1:00. Turns out is was a crimpted wire in the driver side visor that powered the homelink and vanity light. It was causing a short. They replaced the fuse twice before we figured this out.
