    I have had my rav4 since oct. 2007, bought it new and 2 1/2 years after owning it i had to replace the front brakes in june 2010. I just purchased new tires for my rav4 and had them put on in nov. 2011 and i was told that i need brakes again. Now from june 2010 to nov. 2011 i should still have a lot of brake left instead of having to replace them. If this is going to be an ongoing problem with my rav4 i will trade…

    2007 rav 4 had 3 lights turned on (check engine light, stability control light and [redacted] light), shortly after the lights came on, the brakes failed. Rav4 was taken to toyota delearship for repair and after the technicians being confused by the lights, they determined that the brake booster had failed. This issue is similar to the recent highlinder recall and i feel people's safety is at stake with the brakes…

    Last night, my rav4 battery died due presumably to the rear door light getting accidentally turned on. Upon jump starting the car, everything seemed fine. I drove it home without incident. Then, this morning, the battery was not quite up high enough to start the car, so i jump started it again. It started, but a few hundred feet away, i lost power steering and power brake assist. It required every ounce of force i…

    I bought a new 2007 toyota rav4 at the end of the model year. I had problems with the brakes and the car shook and made noises. I took it to the dealer who replaced the front brakes and said it scored the drum and they had to be turned at 33,000 approx miles, under warranty as it was defective parts. But the rear brakes were suppose to be fine. This is a little over a year later and at 47,000 miles and i have had…

    We have a 2007 rav 4 toyota. We could have been killed when we had a booster blow out while we were driving 100 miles from home. This booster is needed to operate the brakes. We did make it back to the service center using the emergency brake but it was dangerous driving without brakes. When the computer put a warning that the brakes were out, all we got was a swerve line...nothing that warned that the booster had…
