Yea could be a fly by wire issue
Live data is where I would start

Could be something like an over crimped connection or water in a connection

And even a bad driver in the ecm for the injection or for the coils

Live data should show the fault

So how many miles on it right now?

Day 1 new dealership: no updates. At this point they cannot recreate the issue… and this is what always happens to me!

Throw some ice in a couple of bags
That would get the rav coils cold one at a time to at least below 40f

So how hot would a crank sensor or cam sensor get?
At least 212f maybe…

We use the small magnetic Katz heaters or large heater if flat ferrous metallic area ….
I guess they could use a pad heater
If they could get enough contact area on the front of the pan

Yea live simulation when you do not have a floor dyno in the shop is tricky
And on a awd you have to have the hub setup so the wheel base is not an issue
