This is when I go to start the car it states starter system malfunction then lets me still turn it on after clearing the error message.

   The 2020 - 2025 Toyota Supra is manufactured by BMW and uses virtually all components supplied by BMW.

   There was a beep and then my dashboard went completely blank (was just dark) so I couldn't see any information such as how many miles per hour I was driving or how much gas I had or my navigational information or what gear I was in.
