    Rav4 hybrid limited with navigation. The navigation control [maps / radio / volume control] freezes suddenly and screen is not manageable until the car stops, engine turned off and back on. One time, radio was loud, and could not turn it down as the screen was frozen. Has happened about once every two weeks.

    Started my 2016 rav4 limited on 7/27/2019. After starting it none of the safety features are working. This appears to be a known issue among other toyota owners. The vehicle was fine when i shut it off the night before. Now anti lock braking, lane departure alert, pre-collision system, and adaptive cruise control are all failing.

    Moonroof drain clogged and caused water to run down a frame and seep under carpet. Vehicle is now full of mold due to the leak. At this time the leak is fixed but the mold issue persists. This been confirmed by dealer and toyota national office. There is no mention of the drain or drain maintenance in the manual. The mold is a serious health hazard. My curtain air bag is also probably damaged due to water running…

    My vehicle was parked when i noticed what looked like water starting to come down from the top of the rear glass. I thought that was weird because there wasn't any water on the car. When i got out to make a closer inspection, the glass exploded. This occurred simply by closing my driver's side door.

    I was driving approximately 25 mph getting onto a major highway and heard what sounded like an explosion. I continued to drive and started hearing glass fly off my car and sliding around on my roof. I quickly pulled over, put my hazards on and slid back the sunroof shade. The entire center of my sunroof had shattered and appeared as if a giant rock was dropped on it. There was no sign of impact and i have already…

There was no one in front of me (so it was not a stone/pebble…

    Forward Collision Avoidance · Unknown Or Other

    Toyota pre-collision system (pcs) on 2016 rav4. I never get any kind of warning, even when cars cut me off at highway speeds, i approach a car from behind at speed (i cannot get too risky here), etc. Other pcs systems on friends cars (non toyota) have some warnings, even false ones a bit. I asked my dealer to check it was working, they had no procedures to test it other than obdii for sensors out. Seems like the…

    The mirrors have a small 'blind spot' mirror that is poorly located. To have the mirror positioned to see the neighboring lanes the main mirror shows almost 1/2 of it's area of the vehicle. To position the main mirror to properly show the area near and behind the vehicle the blind spot mirrors show an area that is irrelevant.

    At first reading this may not seem to be much of a safety issue, but giving it thought it really is. My rav4 has a jbl greenedge radio installed with xm capability. The radio display screen is divided into 2 sections, the right shows what song is playing while the left side displays my preset channel listings. I have my preset channels batched together with all am, fm and xm stations grouped together. When changing…
