NX Hybrid stuck in transport mode

Experiencing a perplexing issue with my new 2023 Lexus NX Hybrid. It seems to be stuck in transport mode, with a general electrical malfunction and unresponsive navigation. The car has 136399 km. Has anyone encountered this before? Is there a simple fix?

That's a weird one for a nearly new Lexus. Transport mode usually disables stuff to save battery during shipping. You've tried the obvious, right? Like engine start, immobilizer, key fob? Maybe it's some weird car configuration thing. Did you check all fuses?

Thanks for the quick reply! Yes, I've tried the engine start a few times, and the key fob is working correctly. I'm not very familiar with the immobilizer system, though. Could that be related? Is there anything I can check myself? I also don't know anything about car configuration. I'm worried about messing something up.

Yeah, immobilizer could be messing with you, preventing the nav from booting and throwing electrical faults. I think it's more likely than fuses being blown. Honestly though, transport mode issues on a car this new often need a dealer visit to properly reset the computer. It's probably still under warranty anyway. Bring it to the workshop.

Thanks a bunch for the advice! Took it to the dealer, and you were spot on—it was a configuration issue related to transport mode. They reset it, and everything is working perfectly now and the repair cost was 0€.
