Heater in 2024 camry only works after engine warms up, is this normal

anyone else notice this? my heater only starts blowing hot air once the engine reaches operating temperature.

my tires don’t move when the car is in park? is this a dealer issue?

return it to the dealership immediately.

it’s almost like the heater just uses heat from a nearby gasoline-powered source.

wait, so i’ve been adding wood all this time for nothing

yeah, that’s just how it works.

works the same way in my 2001 camry.

that’s how heat works in a regular car. lol.

you forgot to preheat your engine with a gas burner. check the owner’s manual.

if you want instant heat, that’s probably a subscription in the toyota app.

same with my 2023. remote start doesn’t help much, but once i start driving, the cabin warms up in 2-3 minutes.
