    There is a dedicated “Door Ajar” icon that is accompanied by an audible beep. The triangle/exclamation point is supposed to alert you to a more serious malfunction such as an inverter over heat problem. It would be prudent to have it checked by the dealer.

    While this symbol can indicate a major malfunction, Toyota also uses it to indicate that a message is currently being displayed on the multi-information display. Have you looked there when the symbol is displayed?
