Hi, I have a low mileage (12,500 miles) 2013 ES+ with CVT transmission and it is starting to roll back when I am stationary on a hill in drive mode. Any ideas as to the cause and possible fix?

Put the handbrake on.

Once you have stopped, press the footbrake down firmly and it will hold you when you release the footbrake to move off. Anything more than a pause use the handbrake.
