"The vehicle resets carplay up to five minutes after you enter vehicle. You are forced to either sit for five minutes or then have to reenter you information like your destination. It can be a surprise when you least expect it. Now it is just a major annoyance."

Other in-car electronics problem

"Problem was present at purchase; Ive not taken it in for resolution."

Anonymous, GA (2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Unsure 2.5-L 4 Cyl hybrid)

"The only way to change the dash and/or screen is "trial and error" method. The owner's manual is worthless. If you follow the directions, you do not change or get to where you are supposed to. A prime example is there is NO WAY to display the trip odometer. There is NO WAY to select only the things you want. Even after hours of playing with the controls, there is no way to set it to what is desired. The owner's manual has little to no relation to the controls or settings."

Anonymous A., CA (2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Limited 2.5-L 4 Cyl hybrid)
Phone pairing (e.g., Bluetooth)

"Very unintuitive controls. System wont connect. Have gone to dealer multiple times to get infotainment system working. We hate this feature."

Anonymous, TX (2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Limited 2.5-L 4 Cyl hybrid)

"Phone pairing is erratic with Android type phone."

Radio

"I want the radio to just come on as it did in every other car Ive driven. I dont like having to figure out if I need to use the radio or apple car play. This is a pain especially when driving or God forbid would be hazardous if on the interstate. Then Id have to pull over just to adjust. That seems senseless."
