2020 TOYOTA RAV4 Complaints

I HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF INSTANCES WHERE MY VEHICLE'S LANE KEEP ASSIST WILL RANDOMLY JERK ME OUT OF MY LANE. IN SEPT 2020 I EXPERIENCED A SIGNIFICANT EVENT OF THIS HAPPENING WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN THE RIGHT LANE OF AN INTERSTATE AND THE VEHICLE JERKED RIGHT SUDDENLY, PULLING THE VEHICLE INTO THE RIGHT SHOULDER AND ALMOST DROVE ME OFF THE INTERSTATE. ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT INSTANCE HAPPENED ON 1/23/2021. I WAS DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON I-44 AND I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF 3 LANES. MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY JERKED THE VEHICLE TO THE LEFT INTO THE LEFT LANE OF TRAFFIC. LUCKILY, THE VEHICLE NEXT TO ME SWERVED ONTO THE SHOULDER THINKING I WAS GOING TO HIT THEM. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER REGULAR INCIDENTS OF THIS HAPPENING, BUT NOT AS SEVERE AS THESE TWO.*DT*DT THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING ON I-44, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY JERKED TO THE LEFT TOWARDS TRAFFIC. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ACTIVATED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE REPAIR TECHNICIANS WERE ABLE DULICATE THE FAILURE BUT, UNABLE TO REPAIR IT.

1.OCCASIONALLY STEERING ISSUES, CAR WANTING TO VEER LEFT OR RIGHT WHILE DRIVING MAINLY NOTICE ON HIGHWAY. 2. SECOND INCIDENT WHERE BATTERY DEAD AFTER NOT DRIVING CAR FOR THREE DAYS.

THE TOYOTA ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL KEEPS A SAFE DISTANCE TO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT, SLOWING AND ACCELERATING PROPERLY TO KEEP A SET DISTANCE EVEN DOWN TO A FULL STOP. HOWEVER, WHEN TRAVELING AT ANY SPEED AND ANOTHER CAR ENTERS MY LANE IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF MY VEHICLE THE SYSTEM DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE NEW VEHICLE AND HOW CLOSE IT IS TO THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. IT DOES NOT SLOW AT ALL EVEN IF THE DISTANCE TO THE INTRUDER IS ONLY A CAR LENGTH OR LESS. I HAVE TO MANUALLY BRAKE QUICKLY TO PREVENT FOLLOWING TO CLOSE AND CAUSING A POSSIBLE REAR END COLLISION. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME A CAR SQUEEZES IN FROM OF ME WITH THE ADAPTIVE CRUSE ON AND IS VERY REPEATABLE. I'VE EXPERIENCED IT IN ANOTHER NEW RAV 4 TOO. THIS HAS BEEN REPEATABLY GOING ON SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW ON JAN, 2020

TOYOTA STATES THE RAV4 HYBRID HAS A 14.5 GAL GAS TANK. WHEN GAS GAUGE SHOWED 27 MI LEFT, I WAS ONLY ABLE TO PUT 11.8 GAL IN TANK. DEALER TOLD ME TO JUST ASSUME I HAD MORE GAS LEFT. THIS WAS AFTER THEY HAD REPAIRED THE RECALL ON THE TANK APPROVED BY TOYOTA. NO WAY TO KNOW HOW FAR I COULD GO. THE RECALL DIDN'T WORK

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AND HEARD AN EXPLOSION AND SAW GLASS FLYING. STOPPED AND LOOKED AT TOP OF CAR AND SUNROOF HAD A LARGE PART OF IT MISSING. THERE WERE NO OVERPASSES NOR DID I SEE ANYTHING THAT WOULD CAUSE IT. TOYOTA'S STATEMENT WHEN I TOOK IT THERE WAS, "IT HAPPENS." I DO NOT KNOW HOW IT WOULD HAPPEN. IT MAKES ME THINK IT WAS A MANUFACTURING ERROR. IF I DID NOT HAVE THE SUNSHADE CLOSED, I WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED IN GLASS.

FUEL-TANK CAPACITY IS LISTED AT 14.5 GALLONS THE TANK WON'T ACCEPT MORE THAN 9 OR 10 GALLONS.

CAR BATTERY COMPLETELY DRAINED AFTER NOT BEING DRIVEN FOR 24 HOURS LEAVING ME STRANDED. CAR WOULD NOT START AND HAD TO BE JUMP STARTED. THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE CAUSING QUICK AND SIGNIFICANT BATTERY DRAIN. CAR WAS PURCHASED IN SEPTEMBER 2020 AND HAS LESS THAN 10,000 MILES.

VEHICLE GAS TANK WILL NOT FILL TO CAPACITY.. I AM STOPING AT GAS STATIONS ALL THE TIME BECAUSE I AM FLYING THROUGH GAS ..AND IT'S A HYBRID ..WON'T FILL MORE THAN 9 OR 10 GALS .. THE VEHICLE HAS NO RANGE FOR A HYBRID WHICH IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY SAY WHEN THEY'RE TRYING TO SELL YOU ONE.. HAD I KNOWN I WOULD BE AT A GAS STATION EVERY 3 DAY'S WITH A HYBRID I WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT IT

WITHIN A WEEK FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE ,THE VEHICLE DID NOT START , HAD TO BE TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER, DEALER SAYS THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY THE PROBLEM DID NOT DUPLICATE AT THEIR END. NO FAULT DETECTED. 9 MONTHS LATER WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD A MILEAGE OF 6066 AGAIN IT FAILED TO START, HAD TO BE TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER, DEALER AGAIN STARTED THE VEHICLE NORMALLY NO FAULT WAS DETECTED, LATER WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD THE MILEAGE OF 7079 THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE IN QUE IN A GAS STATION. FLASHING NOTIFICATION IN THE DASH BOARD INDICATED "DIRT IN THE ENGINE" THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER FOR THE THIRD TIME IN A YEAR NEXT DAY DEALER SAYS THEY DID NOT FIND ANY ISSUE IN THE VEHICLE. MY CONCERN IS NOT ONCE BUT THRICE THE VEHICLE STOPED WORKING BUT THE THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT JUST COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I AM FRUSTRATED - 3 BREAKDOWNS IN THE 1ST YERAR OF THE PERFORMANCE WITHIN 7100 MILEAGE. I THINK THE MECHANICS OF THIS DEALER"S SERVICE DEPARTMENT ARE NOT EXPERIENCED TO DETECT THE PROBLEM IN A NEW VEHICLE. HELP

TETHER ANCHORS ARE MISSING OR NOT VISIBLE. THE LABELS ARE MISSING AS WELL. I'M TRYING TO USE A CARSEAT FORWARD FACING AND NEED TO USE THE TETHER ANCHORS. COULDN'T UPLOAD THE PICTURES.
