Default 7ES - any known issues?

Last week I bought a 2020 ES300h Luxury, in immaculate condition.
It runs and drives like new.

I would like to hear from all of youif there are common problems/faults with this model? Any trouble during the ownership?

P.S. I also drive a 2007 ES350 that had a couple of common problems, and reading this forum I was able to repair all of them.

The front seats on some hybrid models were known to have bent brackets. I think they fixed the supplier issue around Feb/March of 2021. Can't remember if it applied to MY 2020 models. You can see if the passenger seat is touching the armrest.

You did this completely backwards! You ask about known issues BEFORE you buy the car!
