2019 TOYOTA RAV4 Complaints

AFTER WAITING FOR 10 MONTHS, TOYOTA HAS STILL NOT DELIVERED A FIX FOR THEIR KNOWN FUEL TANK CAPACITY PROBLEM IN THEIR 2019 RAV4 HYBRID MODEL. TOYOTA CONTINUES TO STATE THAT THE 14.5GAL TANK HAS A CAPACITY OF MORE THAN 500 MILES, WHILE OWNERS STRUGGLE TO PUT MORE THAN 9-10 GALLONS INTO THE VEHICLE. THE REDUCED RANGE AND INCONSISTENT FUEL LEVEL READINGS HAVE LEFT ME UNSURE AS TO HOW MUCH FUEL THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY HAS, RESULTING IN FREQUENT FUEL STOPS AND AN OBSERVED RANGE OF CLOSER TO 300MILES.

VEHICLE REFUELING PERFORMANCE. THE GAUGE DOES ACCURATELY REFLECT THE CONTENTS OF THE GAS TANK. 14 GAL TANK EMPTY WILL NOT TAKE MORE THAN 8 GAL OF GAS. RESULTING IN A SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU ARE OUT OF GAS.

SOUND HEARD WHEN GOING FROM ALL WHEEL DRIVE TO FRONT WHEEL DRIVE AT LOW SPEEDS. ALSO WHEN STOPPING WHEN WHEN THE REAR WHEEL DRIVE REENGAGES.

DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT 65 MILES ON A FREEWAY I DRIVE DAILY. WHILE HAVING THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVE THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND DRASTICALLY REDUCED THE SPEED TO ALMOST 0 WHEN THE VEHICLE GOT CLOSED TO ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE RIGHT SIDE LANE MAKING A RIGHT TURN. THE VEHICLE TURNING WAS NOT ON MY LANE IN FRONT OF ME IT WAS ALREADY IN A SEPARATE LANE MAKING THE TURN. THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS 5 TIMES IN THE YEAR I HAVE OWNED IT.

DURING A SLOW ROLL, THE VEHICLE JERKS PRETTY BAD. COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE RAV4S THAT TOYOTA HASN'T ADDRESSED.

AS THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS DOWN TO FIRST GEAR, WITHOUT COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AS ONE ACCELERATES THE VEHICLE MAKES AN ABRUPT FORWARD MOVEMENT. STRONG ENOUGH TO MOVE A PASSENGER BACKWARDS. I HAVE ONLY NOTICE THIS AT LOW SPEEDS IN TRAFFIC. DOES NOT HAPPEN AFTER COMPLETE STOP. I WILL RAKE CAR TO DEALER TO CHECK THE TRANSMISSION THIS IS NOT NORMAL ON AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.

THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE REFUELED FULLY WITHOUT TOPOFF, REDUCING THE DRIVING RANGE OF THE VEHICLE.

I WAS PULLING INTO MY GARAGE WHEN MY RAV4 TOOK OFF LIKE A ROCKET AND HIT THE CONCRETE BACK WALL.*DT THE CONSUMER HAS STATED THAT THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ONCE MORE WHEN THE CONSUMER WAS AT THE TAMPA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN THE CELL PHONE PARKING LOT. THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND DIAGONALLY WENT AHEAD AND COLLIDED WITH 2 OTHER VEHICLES. *AS

THE FUEL TANK TANK DOES NOT FILLING UP COMPLETELY AND GIVES MISLEADING INFORMATION THAT IT IS FULLY FILLED UP WHEN IN FACT IT IS ABOUT 3-4 GALLONS SHORT. THE GAS STATION PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOP EVEN THE GAS TANK WAS NOT FULLY FILLED UP

RADIO SUDDENLY LOSES SOUND, AND THEN COMES BACK VERY LOUD SCARING PASSENGERS AND THE DRIVER. SOMETIMES SOUND NEVER COMES BACK. SCREEN IS FAULTY AND HAS SLOW RESPONSE TO TRANSITION FROM CAMERA TO RADIO AND BACK. UPDATES ARE REQUIRED BUT DEALERSHIPS WANT THEM PAID FOR IF NOT IN WARRANTY
