Suspension · Visibility/Wiper
I have fixed my rear suspension more than 4x and it continues to go bad, it works fine for a couple of weeks but still not running well then it shocks and goes back to bouncing whenever it hits a bump or anything not smooth on the roads. It happens when driving and you feel it a lot more when it's running on local roads. The visibility is bad, the defogger does not work and i have to wait about 15-20 mins or open…

Driver visor will not stay in the up position. The visor will fall done "while driving" the vehicle blocking the drivers view of the road causing dangerous and unsafe vehicle operation.

Drivers side visor won't stay up which causes a visibility issue. There's a recall on the camry s but not on the rav4 and same part. I saw another person reported same issue. The dealer is quoting $170 plus to fix. I've been dealing with this visor for a year not t even realizing it is something that was a recall for another model. I feel toyotas defective part should be fixed or offer a lower rate to fix issue.

Remedy for windshield wiper issue is not being fixed in a timely manner. It has been almost a year and still no remedy. This has been one of the rainiest summers even in southern arizona with floods and record rains and i don't trust my wipers anymore because the recall says they could stop working at any time. I don't think that toyota understands that arizona gets rain--and lots of it--and things rust. Nothing has…

Toyota issued safety recall f1s on sep 17, 2015 stating that failing to fix it "may affect driver visibility and increase risk of crash" ten months later the toyota web site still displays "remedy not available". Any attempts to get feedback on when a solution might be implemented are useless. The response is: what you see on the website is what you get.

I was notified in 2013 of three (3) recalls nothng has been done to address the issues. I contacted my local dealer and the service manager said "there is not safety problem and i have looked at the vehicle and northing is wrong' i forced the issue and they did an "interim" fix. Is not three years a long time for them to be getting the parts as that is the excuse i was given by the service manager.
