While driving at approximately 55 mph on a two lane highway, the sunroof suddenly cracked and then shattered for no apparent reason. There was no debris (rock, bolt) etc found in the glass once we were able to pull over and look at the damage. The glass appears to have bowed upward and away from the frame and then shattered.

Your web site shows only one open recall concerning the rear seat belts. There are at least two/three other recalls that i received letters from the manufacturer and have been told that there are no parts to effect repair, should they not be listed as open in your web site? Do you think that toyota has the parts to effect repair?

Toyota rav4's paint is peeling on the roof in the area located between the top of the windshield and the moon roof. The paint color is blizzard pearl white. I have personally observed the same issue on other rav4s having noticeable missing paint patches in the same area of the roof. The paint also chips very easily over the entire surface of the vehicle.

Initially i thought the car was on fire as there was a loud crackling sound that i couldn't locate. Soon i…

A/c stopped working and the dealer said the compressor need to be replaced. For a less than 5 year car to have a failed compressor is strange. When we are talking, they mentioned this is a known problem for toyota with this model. When i asked about possible of recall, they said they don't think there will be a recall because it is not a safety issue. Why is it not a safety issue? There could be harmful air and…

Recall ~ no parts will be available for weeks hello, i received notice of a recall from toyota two weeks ago. When attempting to get it fixed within a 51 mile radius on june 13, i was told by three dealers that toyota does not have the parts available. None of the establishments are able to repair the vehicles because toyota is very slow in supplying the parts. I would imagine that they are still making new cars and…

Usually after a rain storm or if i go through a deep puddle the idiot lights for "check engine, slip indicator and [redacted]" lights come on and stay on for about 30 miles. Wednesday they came on and stayed on even though it hasn't rained in weeks. I've talked with several dealers and they tell me either there is no fix for it or toyota is investigating the problem. I've also talked to others with older rav4's and…

My friend purchased a 2010 toyota rav4 5-door 4x2 suv ltd on 3/20/2010 and on 3/27/2010 the vehicle failed. The car hesitated to advance and after 2 or 3 more tries did not responded at all.
