We recently received the rear lower suspension arms 2nd recall. I purchased the car used in april 2013, and was not told of a recall.

We brought it in once previously and they said the problem was fixed. This time i was told by one dealership the part to repair the recall was not…

Had recall on toyota rav 4 for rear lower suspension arms. Took it back to the dealer for repair, they didn't have the parts and have to reschedule when the parts come in. This is what toyota said will be done to repair it: if any rust is found on the internal threaded portion of the arm(s), the arm will be replaced. After the inspection or replacement the rear suspension alignment will be set and the arms will be…

Received notification of recall due to rear lower suspension arms over 6 months ago. Have been waiting for remedy from toyota which obviously never came. Starting to hear noise from the side and rear of vehicle. No accident as of yet, but am not willing to wait any longer. Completely irresponsible on toyota's part . Shame on you - does someone have to get hurt or worse before you step up and fix this problem. My…

To whom it may concern, last spring (march 2014) i received a recall notice for my 2010 rav 4 to come in for an inspection for my rear lower suspension arm. I immediately called and was put on a waiting list to be seen. Every month or so i would call to check the status of getting seen. They would seem confused each time i would call, but would verify that i was on that "list." but over the many months, i have still…

Nothing has happened yet other than i think this has caused my tires to wear prematurely and am worried this repair is taking extremely long to get repaired. I need new tires and alignment but will need another when my repair gets done. I think toyota should repair and replace alignment and tires for free. Tires did not wear even. Found out from dealer new tires are required. 6/32 outer edge of tire and center of…

Safety recall notice 16v-596 regarding rear lower suspension arm (no.1) assemblies. We have been trying to get this recall repaired since the notice was sent out. To date toyota has been unable to supply the part to remedy this problem. I do not have the exact date of the recall but has been over three years. I am concerned that if the part fails, as noted in the recall, it could cause loss of control of the auto.…

Toyota has sent out two recalls (#coj and csj). I have called the dealership twice for the latest recall, #csj, and twice the dealer has said they are out of parts. When i called toyota directly, they stated there were not enough replacement parts made and are waiting for more. How can this happen? This is absolutely terrible how toyota has handled this situation. First, they couldn't properly repair the first…
