They did a recall on my vehicle and it was about a bolt rusting on the backend near the rear tire so the fix was to protect a bolt. They put some bar on the back side near the rear tire that made it where i have not been able to get my back end of the car aligned since. Causing my tires to keep getting bubbles in them. This happens to every set i get and i have been told that they cannot fix the rear alignment…

While driving vehicle began to shake or "wobble" . Upon inspection was found to be tire which was uneven in wear. Replaced tire and after a short time was found not to be the problem. Upon inspection was found seals on rear differential leaking . Closer inspection found rear suspension, tie rod loose. This we believe is due to rear suspension parts being faulty. Parts are original. At this time we are being told…

I bought the car 8/31/2010. The car always jumped for no reason. Henderickson toyota said nothing was wrong. I saw 2010 rav4 was involved in a lawsuit that toyota corporation lost in 2013. I was never notified. The car was rpaired for a floor mat problem, but not the motor jump. I sold the car because the car was in 2015 because it had a second major problem with poor control of backend.

One wheel stud on the front passenger side was broken. Apparently it was made of poor steel material. I checked internet and found this problem was also reported by many others. To our disappointment, so the manufacture and dealers are still not accepting the causation. I am thinking boycott toyota since they are using cheap poor parts made in china. *tr

There is an issue with the wheel studs that appears to be quite common on rav4's of several years. The wheel studs break quite often and the toyota and the toyota dealers blame it on the torque of the lug nuts. This is definitely not the case since i've had two break off since i purchased the card new in september, 2009. The first broke off at approximately 8,000 mile and second broke of at 24,000 miles while i was…

I went to rotate the tires for the first time on my 2010 rav4 2.5 v6. I had never had the tires off before. The only time they would have been off was when i went back to the dealer after having the car for approximately 6 months to have the front 2 wheels re-balanced because of a slight shaking in the steering wheel. This fixed the problem. However when i went to rotate 4 tires, 2 of the front lug bolts broke. When…

Shortly after dealer maintenance, three lug bolts broke off while torquing the lug nuts to 80 foot pounds. The lug bolts appear to made from a low grade of steel. The dealer was good enough to replace broken bolts, but refused to replace all the lug bolts. I maintain that all my lug bolts could be damaged to the point of near failure and that toyota should be using a higher grade steel in these bolts. *tr
