| Aug 2022 | POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The vehicle without warning will lose all power; "Accelerator System Malfunction Output Power Reduced Visit Your Dealer" and "Pre-Collision System Malfunction - Visit Your Dealer" are the warning messages that appeared when power was lost. The "Check Engine" light also illuminated as well as a collision error light appeared. The vehicle has done this twice; the first time, the dealer found a recall which was a software update. However, today the vehicle became unresponsive again with the same error messages as before; we were lucky no vehicle hit us from behind since we were turning towards the frontage road to access the highway. The first time this happened, my wife was entering the ramp towards the expressway when the vehicle lost all power and she had to go to the side. Vehicle is now again at the dealer but cannot be serviced until Monday; however, this needs to be addressed since it is a safety concern. On the Toyota App, it is also listing a hybrid malfunction; this needs immediate attention to avoid a catastrophic event. Losing all power with no warning is completely unacceptable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2022 | SERVICE BRAKES | My Rav4 Hybrid 2022 exhibits a front brake squeal/squeak noise when braking at low speeds. Went to Toyota delearship and they examined but said there's no issue! Called toyota customer service and expected a call back but didn't hear back.(Toyota Case Number 220726001124) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2022 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The Cruise Control has issues. On 3 long rides so far, I have experienced that it suddenly loses speed and gives the message radar ready now. Furtunately i was maintaining very safe driving distance with other cars on the highway, which has helped me accelerate in time to continue driving and avoid collision. I dont know of any pattern which triggers this. This could lead to a serious problem if it fails in a tricky spot on highway. I am afraid to use it as its not 100 percent reliable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2022 | LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | My Car is Toyota Rav4 2022 Premium XLE have many safety issues -During i'm braking/ hold button and standing on the light i find the car is jumping to front many times it was going to hit some one of pedsterian and car front of me ( it was like Starting engine with jumping) - Precollsion system doesn't work while doen't see any cars front of me while going to traffice light - Keep lane assistant doesn't work and is not senstive sometime my car get out of the lane during i'm driving - Sometime keep lane assistant system pushing the car to get out of the lane | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2022 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | When driving the car on a highway around 45 mph or above you can hear a excessive wind noise near driver window. There are several posts about this issue reported by various owners. This excessive wind noise makes fatigue and tiredness which can have impact on drivers ability and may result in health issues. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2022 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Unknown crack on exterior front windshield. The vehicle is nearly a month old and always garage kept. Discovered hairline crack from drivers pillar to halfway towards the rear view mirror. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2022 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | On May 13th, 2022, I was in my garage and inside the vehicle in park mode, when I suddenly heard a little crack sound coming from the windshield. It was very faint, but I heard it. Then I noticed that it was the windshield and it had a little crack. On May 19, 2022, I took the vehicle to Elmhurst Toyota and they stated that a rock hit the windshield which is false. I am certain that it is a defect of the windshield in the RAV4's. I am not the first person to complain about the faulty windshield on these models and truly believe that is very unsafe. This needs to be investigated as it can cause a car accident if cracked on the highway. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2022 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | "The total fuel dispensed is less than expected when the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off when refueling. [Some customer reports] have also noted the "Distance to Empty" shown on the multi-information display is less than expected." | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2022 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The fuel tank warning light comes on when the car still has over 4 gallons of gas remaining in the tank. This was confirmed by checking fuel fill versus tank size and also running vehicle well past warning light. The warning light appears to mislead drivers and is inaccurate. The actual range of the vehicle is misleading with this warning light. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
