TWICE THIS VEHICLE HAS STUMBLED WHEN TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ACROSS TRAFFIC, APPLYING GAS FROM A NEAR DEAD STOP. BOTH TIMES WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT IF OTHER DRIVER WAS NOT DRIVING DEFENSIVELY. THIS RAV 4 IS UNSAFE! LESS THAN 5,000 MILES SINCE WE BOUGHT IT NEW.
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 5, 2020
GAS TANK DOES NOT FILL FULLY. ONLY FILLS TO 10 GALLONS EACH TIME I FILL IT UP, WHICH ONLY GIVES ME AROUND 400 MILES OF DRIVING.
Visibility/wiper, Mar 4, 2020
AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, OVER 45 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR VIBRATES. THIS OCCURS ON MOST SURFACE WHETHER SMOOTH OR ROUGH. WHEN THE MIRROR IS VIBRATING, IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO CLEARLY VIEW WHAT IS OCCURRING TO THE LEFT AND BEHIND THE VEHICLE. DURING NIGHT TIME DRIVING, HEADLIGHTS CREATE A DISTRACTION AS THE MIRROR IS DISTORTING AND SHIMMERING THE LIGHTS IN THE DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS MAKES DRIVING UNSAFE. REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENT. INVOICE SHOWS THAT VEHICLE "OPERATING AS DESIGNED" AS SERVICE REP INDICATED THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FOR THIS SO THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE 2019/2020 RAV4.
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 4, 2020
PURCHASED A 2019 RAV4 XSE ON JULY 6TH 2019. THE FUEL TANK WILL NOT ACCEPT A FULL TANK OF GASOLINE. THE GAUGE NEVER DISPLAYS MORE THAN 3/4 - 7/8 OF A TANK. ATTEMPTS TO TOP OFF LEADS TO FUEL OVERFLOW. DEALERSHIPS ALL PROVIDE A "WE'VE NEVER HEARD OF THIS" DESPITE MULTIPLE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS.
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 4, 2020
I'M UNABLE TO PUT NO MORE THAN 10 GALLON OF GAS EVEN THO MAX GAS TANK IS 14.5. A LOT LESS MILEAGE THAN TOYOTA CLAIM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA RAV4. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE FRONT HEAD LIGHTS FAILED TO ADEQUATELY ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY WHICH CAUSED A VISIBILITY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER RICK MCGILL'S TOYOTA (3145 AIRPORT HWY, ALCOA TN) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEADLAMPS OPERATED AS DESIGNED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100.*DT*JB
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 2, 2020
I CANNOT COMPLETELY FILL UP THE GAS TANK. WHEN THE GAUGE SHOWS EMPTY, I CAN ONLY GET 9-10 GALLONS IN. THE SPECS SAY IT HAS A 14.5 GALLON TANK, BUT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THAT MUCH FUEL INTO THE TANK. THE CRUISING RANGE IS LESS THAN 400 MILES, FAR LESS THAN WHAT IS ADVERTISED. I'VE BEEN CALLING THE DEALERSHIP AND TOYOTA CORPORATE SINCE OCTOBER 2019 AND AM STILL BEING TOLD THAT "TOYOTA IS INVESTIGATING IT"
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 1, 2020
I HAVE A 2019 TOYOTA HYBRID. THE TANK CAN NOT BE COMPLETELY FILLED. IT CAN LEAVE AROUND FOUR GALLONS UNFILLED. THE ONLY WAY I CAN FILL IT IS TO HAVE THE NOZZLE SLIGHTLY OUT SIDE OF THE FILLER NECK AND PUMP A A SLOW RATE. WHILE THIS WORKS, IT TAKES TIME AND IT IS NOT VERY ENVIRONMENTLY FRIENDLY.
Suspension, Feb 29, 2020
WHEN DRIVING MY CAR EVERYTIME I MAKE A TURN THERE IS A NOISE COMING FROM THE SHOCK OF THE WHEELS FRONT AND REAR I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES AND THEY SAID THEY HEAR NOTHING THEN I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT'S THE BALL BEARING ON TOP OF THE SHOCK. NOW THE NOISE IS GETTING LOUDER AND LOUDER, I'M SCARED SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN TO ME AND MY FAMILY WHEN WE ARE ALL IN THE CAR. SO PLEASE CAN YOU GUYS HELP ME OUT
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 28, 2020
WHILE FEELING THE GAS, AT ALMOST EMTPY, I DIDN,'T WENT ABOVE THE 10 GALLONS. THIS REQUIERED ME TO GO MULTIPLE TIMES TO THE GAS STATION TO FILL IO THE GASTANK. MOREOVER, THE GAS RANGE HAS DECREASED FROM ALMOST 500 MILES TO LESS THAN 380 MILES IN RANGE FROM 2 MONTHS AGO TILL NOW. THE MILAGE OF THE VEHICLE IS LESS AROUND 2,800 MILES. VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT IN AUGUST OF 2019
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 27, 2020
WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE, THE AUTO SHUTOFF AT THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF BEFORE THE FUEL TANK IS COMPLETELY FILLED. OCCURS AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF FUEL REMAINING IN THE TANK.

1ST INCIDENT: SITTING AT STOP LIGHT FOR A FEW MINS AS NORMAL. WHEN TIME TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE STARTED LURCHING FORWARD IN A HARD JERKING MOTION. 2ND INCIDENT: SLOWER TRAFFIC. WHEN DRIVING IN SLOWER TRAFFIC OR AT SLOWER SPEEDS, ~20-35MPH THE VEHICLE WILL START LURCHING JERKING FORWARD. TOOK BACK TO DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION, THERE WERE NO ISSUES FOUND. DEALERSHIP RESET INTERNAL COMPUTER, STATING THAT "VEHICLE IS OPERATING NORMALLY". NEITHER HAS ISSUE HAS YET TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH ANY OTHER DRIVERS AT THIS TIME. I DO TRAVEL WITH DOGS WHO ARE HARNESSED AND SEAT-BELTED IN THE BACKSEAT, THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN THROWN TO FLOOR OF CAR IF NOT SEAT-BELTED. FOR MYSELF, I GET TOSSED FORWARD SEVERAL INCHES AND HEAD THROWN FORWARD. WHEN DRIVING IN SLOWER TRAFFIC AND/OR STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, THE CAR LURCHING/HARD JERKING FORWARD WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. ALL INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPEN ON DRY CITY STREETS. I WOULD ASSUME DURING THESE INCIDENTS OF THE JERKING FORWARD THAT THE BREAK LIGHTS DO NOT ALERT REAR DRIVERS THAT THE CAR IS IN A STOP/GO MOTION.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 26, 2020
FUEL TANK WILL NOT FILL CORRECTLY. IF I OVER FILL IT AFFECTS THE VAPOR RECOVERY SYSTEM OF THE RA 4 HYBRID. HAVE TO BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL NOT TO RUN OUT OR GASOLINE.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 26, 2020
WHEN FUELING, THE TANK WILL NOT COMPLETELY FILL. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO CONTINUE TO FILL VERY SLOWLY THE TANK OVER FILLS AND YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE VAPOR RECOVERY SYSTEM.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 26, 2020
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED TO REGISTER THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 300.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 21, 2020
THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCEPT MORE THAN 10 GALLONS OF FUEL AND MILEAGE RANGE IS SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER THAN EXPECTED/ADVERTISED ON A 14.5 CAPACITY TANK
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 20, 2020
WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATES THAT THE TANK IS NEARLY EMPTY, MY VEHICLE WILL ONLY ACCEPT ABOUT 10 GALLONS OF FUEL UNTIL PUMP SHUT-OFF. AS A RESULT MY VEHICLE FAILS TO MEET TOYOTA MILEAGE RANGE SPECIFICATIONS OF 580 MILES AND ONLY MAKES ABOUT 400 MILES. MOREOVER, IF TRYING TO FILL UP WITH 15 GALLONS OF FUEL AND GOING BEYOND PUMP SHUT-OFF THERE IS A RISK OF OVERFILL AND FIRE HAZARD. KOONS DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE DEFECT WHICH SHOULD BE COVERED BY WARRANTY.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 19, 2020
I HAVE A 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 XSE HYBRID. I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW WITH ROUGHLY 300 MILES ON IT AND SINCE THEN HAVE PUT ON AN ADDITIONAL 5700. I BOUGHT IT IN NOVEMBER AND IT IS NOW FEBRUARY. I WAS INFORMED AND RESEARCHED TOLD ME THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS 14.5 GALLONS. YET, EVERY TIME I GO TO FILL UP THE TANK ONCE THE LIGHT HAS CAME ON, I CAN ONLY GET ROUGHLY 8.5-9 GALLONS OF FUEL IN AND THEN THE PUMPS SHUT OFF. I HAVE FILLED UP MORE THAN 15 TIMES AND EVERY SINGLE TIME AT NUMEROUS DIFFERENT PUMPS, THIS SAME THING HAPPENS. I AM ABLE TO SQUEEZE IN ROUGHLY ANOTHER 2-3 GALLONS BUT I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYWHERE CLOSE TO 13 GALLONS LET ALONE THE ADVERTISED 14.5. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO GET A MAX OF 580 MILES PER TANK AND THE AVERAGE I GET WITH THIS LESS AMOUNT OF GAS I CAN PUT IN IS ROUGHLY 410-430.
Exterior lighting, Feb 19, 2020
PURCHASED 2019 RAV4 HYBRID 4/2019. ON WINDING ROADS USING LOW BEAMS, LIT UP DISTANCE IS ABRUPTLY AND SEVERELY SHORTENED AS THE ROADWAY DIPS AND TURNS. THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE, IN MY OPINION. SANTA CRUZ,CA HAS MANY SUCH ROADS, INCL. HWY. 17, AND USING HIGH BEAMS IS NOT ALWAYS AN OPTION. IT WAS UNNERVING DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THE FIRST NIGHT THAT I OWNED IT, AND STILL IS.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 19, 2020
UNABLE TO FILL GAS TANK WITH 14.5 GALLONS EVEN WHEN EMPTY. MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF GAS THAT CAN BE FILLED IS APPROXIMATELY 10 GALLONS EVEN WITH LOW FUEL LIGHT ON. COMMON ISSUE MENTIONED ON NUMEROUS ONLINE RESOURCES.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 19, 2020
THE VEHICLE'S LISTED FUEL TANK CAPACITY IS 14.5 GALLONS. I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO ADD MORE THAN 9.5 GALLONS EVEN THOUGH THE FUEL GARAGE WAS REGISTERING EMPTY AND THE COMPUTER WAS SHOWING 14 MILES TO EMPTY. TOYOTA AND THE DEALERSHIPS KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM IN THE SUMMER OF 2019 YET CONTINUED TO SELL THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT INFORMING CUSTOMERS OF THE ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 18, 2020
OUR NEW IN AUGUST OF 19 HYBRID RAV4 HAS THE FUEL PROBLEM THAT IT APPEARS THOUSANDS OF OTHERS DO. IT HAS A 14.5 GALLON TANK, BUT THE SYSTEM WON'T ALLOW YOU TO FILL THE TANK. AT EVERY GAS STATION, THE PUMP IS INITIALLY SHUT OFF WITH MANY GALLONS LEFT TO GO TO FILL THE TANK. THIS LEADS TO A SITUATION WHERE YOU HAVE TRICKLE FILL TO GET IT CLOSE TO FULL. TRICKLE A LITTLE IN, THE VAPOR SYSTEM SHUTS IT OFF---AND DO THAT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL YOU FEEL YOU ARE CLOSE TO FULL. IT'S EASY TO OVERFILL AND EASY TO SPILL GAS ONTO THE GROUND WHILE DOING SO. WE STARTED AN OPEN CASE ON THIS WITH TOYOTA WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF NEW LAST FALL, AND TO DATE THEY STILL HAVE NO FIX FOR THE ISSUE. IT APPEARS SIMILAR TO A BLADDER PROBLEM THEY HAD WITH PRIUS GAS TANKS SOME YEARS AGO, BUT THEY REFUSE TO DISCUSS WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO FIX IT.

I CAN NOT FILL UP MY GAS TANK IT SHUTS OFF AT ABOUT 12 GALLONS
Service brakes, Feb 17, 2020
RAV4 HAS ONLY 500O MILES ON ODOMETER. HAVE BEEN GETTING A SQUEALING SOUND FROM THE BRAKES WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. BRAKING ABILITY IS NOT DIMINISHED, JUST A PERSISTENT SPEAK. SEEMS TO BE MORE PRONOUNCED AT FIRST MORNING BRAKING. AFTER ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES IT WILL GO AWAY FOR THE DAY.
