Toyota RAV4

"Unresolved. Problem started in 2024."

""AC system was shutting off and AC light blinking, indicators of problem with compressor""

"Im 76 & dont know about all the problems listed. I just know that every summer my air conditioning wouldnt blow cold air til my son-in-law would add coolant."

"Lost trim/gasket around drivers side window. Not surprising since South Texas heat is brutal."

""Have had clear coat loss for a number of years, just worsening. Brought it in for pearl white paint recall & was told it did not qualify! Not coming off in big sheets.""

"Vehicle started showing significant rust on the wheels (steel) almost immediately. Body rust got significantly worse over time - moreso than any other vehicle Ive owned of comparable age."

"Both Key fobs stopped working even with the replaced new batteries. Ended up getting a new key fob."

"The alternator quit charging and my battery would not start the car. Had to have a remanufactured alternator installed. The cost was over $700 dollars."

"Switch to control external side mirrors failed"

"oil leak due to valve head cover gasket failure"

"Oil pan gasket needed to be replaced. Problem resolved."

""Piston oil control rings were allowing oil consumption. I performed a "piston soak" with a powerful solvent (Berryman b-12) which removed much carbon from the four cylinders. Unfortunately, after removing the solvent I was unable to get engine to start/run. Thus car was towed to mechanic who got car running again. No further oil consumption since procedure done Sept 2024.""

"Crack in windshield."

"Mice ate and tore up seat belts. Had to change them. Total nightmare."

"Passenger seat belt lovks up unnecessarily and has been a nuisance for the life of this vehicle."

"Wont take CD"

"Radio station presets often dont work and/or just turn off the radio"

"Windshield leaked, creating mold problem"

"very expensive difficult analysis of a leak that started with water tunnel outlet being clogged and backing up into radio....."

""Car will not accelerate, hesitates and must be gently driven or it will hop significantly. No engine codes so diagnosis was difficult dealer tried Rear catalytic converter, o2 sensor and air fuel ratio sensor and finally fuel pump fixed the problem. Three months later same problem front catalytic converter changed, throttle body cleaned, all new fuel injectors, everything checked no fix. No resolution from dealer or Toyota.""

"As soon as the sensors go off, the Rav system knocks out the AWD, ABS, and cruise control systems."

"Rear driveshaft u-joints required replacement due to bearings beginning to seize. Vehicle contined to be operable but significant cost to weld new u-joints onto driveshaft."

"sensor switch failure"

"Alternator failed which left us with a car that would not start. After replacement ($900) it works good again"

"began to use 1 quart per 300 miles. Worn rings."

""This was a leased car that I bought with 46000 miles. There were transmission issues showing up almost right away, such as a check engine light that came on while driving on wet roads. I had the fluid replaced twice, then around 100000 miles replaced the transmission with a rebuilt one. I really enjoy the car and dont regret the expense.""
