Known Recall Investigations
  • Pedestrian alert sounds investigation as of 20230127

    Nhtsa received a petition on or about july 18, 2022, requesting that federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) 141 be applied to all electric and hybrid vehicles operating in the united states. The petition can be reviewed at nhtsa.Gov under odi number 11486072.Fmvss 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for motor vehicles. The standard applies to hybrid and electric vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 kg or less or are defined as low-speed vehicles. The standard became fully applicable to all such vehicles manufactured on or after march 1, 2021.The petitioner asserts that hybrid and electric vehicles to which the standard does not apply should be found to contain a safety defect. In support of the petition, the petitioner includes findings contained in a bill introduced in the house of representatives in 2009, the pedestrian safety enhancement act of 2009, h.R. 734, 111th cong. (2009). A related bill, the pedestrian safety enhancement act of 2010, became law in january 2011 (pub. L. 111-373). The petitioner requests that nhtsa require all electric and hybrid vehicles comply with fmvss 141, regardless of production date.The defect petition has been opened to evaluate the issue and determine whether to grant or deny the petition.The associated product list is not exhaustive and may contain vehicles that are equipped with pedestrian alert sounds.

Unknown component or system while driving on the interstate during rush hour, traveling 60 miles an hour, another vehicle along side us entered our lane and we had to avoid a collision by aggressive braking and steering. Following this maneuver, our vehicle immediately shut down. An 18 wheel barely missed crashing into our rear. It took us approximately 1 minute to realize we needed to put the car in park, step on the brake, and push the ignition button to restart the vehicle.

I have an appointment with the toyota dealership however it's my only mode of transportation and i work 3 hours away from home. This puts me at high risk of getting hurt.

Case number started at toyota customer service: 210701002045 requested an unacceptable time to answer of 8 weeks. There was a recall for this vehicle. I wasnt notified and the recall also doesnt show in any website (not toyota not in the goverment one). I went on a trip thousands mile aways from home, i was up in the montains, the car got broken in a very bad place where i had to spend almost $2,000 dollars due to towing, meal and hotel expenses (as the dealer was closed on a weekend). I am trying to solve this with toyota but they say i have to wait 8 weeks to start looking at my case. It is unacceptable . I need a reimbursement asap.

Roof rack seals failed, allowing water in above the a-pillar, which damages the headliner and could damage electrical and side airbags, compromising safety. In talking with other 2019 rav4 owners, many have experienced the same issue as the sealing mechanism is poorly designed.

The sunroof exploded outward/upward. I was doing 75-80mph north bound on i-15 in montana, south of mile marker 250. Suddenly there was a loud boom like a an explosion! (i was startled and almost lost control of the car.) when i reached cascade, the nearest town, i checked and saw that the sunroof was bulged outward, with a large hole. See pictures. Condition: around 12:45pm. Outside - cloudy, temp around 30 degree farenheit with a dusting of snow. Inside cabin was set to 70 degrees. I do not know the elevation above sea level. I was not near any area that rocks could fall on the roof. The only other vehicle was about 1/4 to 1/2 mile behind me at the time of the incidence. The autobody shop guy checked for any signs of rocks or bullets or anything that could have caused it and he could not even guess at the cause, especially since the glass was bulging outward.

The 2019 rav4 models have an issue with the roof rack rails leaking water into the a pillar as well as the c pillar due to a failure in the materials the manufacturer used. Not only does this cause issues with the headliner of the vehicles but this could also endanger the occupants of the entire vehicle due to the leak affecting the airbags located in the a and c pillars. This leak has a potential to affect electrica as well as the main safety component located in the locations stated above. Not addressing the issue could result in death due to airbag failures and could then lead to class action lawsuits.

Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Yes, while driving on the interstate the vehicle began vibrating heavily. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Upon inspection it was noticed that the inner tread of the left rear tire was damaged, worn away and scalloped or cupped. The tire was replaced with a spare, and vehicle driven to the nearest toyota dealer for service. The damaged tire is available for inspection. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, the servicing dealer informed us that the left rear camber was out of manufacturer specification being -1.8 deg. The minimum allowed is -1.7, and the minimum recommended is -1.3. We were informed that to be safe the vehicle required repairs; however, they were unable. We then took the vehicle to the selling dealer who also found the issue and were unable to repair. Two additional service centers also confirmed the rear camber was out of specifications, and posed a safety risk. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes, the dealer stated that a manufacturer representative from toyota inspected the vehicle. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Safety was compromised as the damage to the tire was severe and hidden. This damage could have resulted in a loss of control of the vehicle. The vehicle remains in the unsafe condition. It is also important to note that the tires were being rotated every 5,000 miles by a manufacturer service center as recommended.

Luckily without crashing i parked on the side and saw that the sunroof had shattered with the appearance of coming from within. The shade had been closed therefore the glass was prevented from scattering on me. I had toyota chula vista, ca check it out and they declined to honor the warranty. The week afterwards i spoke to the manager of toyota in yuma, az where i purchased the automobile who also declined to honor the warranty and recommended to make a claim with my car insurance.

After periods of rain, snowmelting on the car, or going through a car wash, water enters via the roof rack area,potentially exposing the airbags to water. The water caused staining on the headliner all over (a. B, c pillars). The curtain airbags for the front and back seat were in direct contact with the area saturated by water. I tookthe vehicle into the dealership where i purchased it, and they replaced the headliner and roof rack hardware after confirming there was a leak (3/4/21). After the repair was done, a few weeks passed where there was little to no rain to verify the leakwas actually fixed. Yesterday, (3/26/21) it rained. I went to inspect the headliner, and the passenger curtain airbag on the a pillarwas surrounded by wetness. This poses a risk to the integrity of the airbags.

Fuel tank will not fill completely. When fueling, the pump consistently shuts off before tank indicator reaches "full". Toyota is aware of this issue but refuses to fix my vehicle despite the customer support program notification which is currently occurring. I visited my dealer who was able to fill the tank by repeatedly adding small amounts of gasoline each time the fuel pump shut off. New jersey, where i reside, does not allow for self-service filling and it is not practical, nor safe, to fill the vehicle in this manner. Toyota acknowledges that there is an issue with the shape of the fuel tank and/or the fuel sender gauge. Given toyota's unwillingness to address this known issue, and the hazardous situation created by repeatedly restarting the fuel pump after each shut-off in order to reach "full" on the tank, toyota should be mandated to initiate a recall of all affected vehicles, where "affected" includes all vehicles that fail to fill the tank after the initial shut-off of the fuel pump.

Given toyota's unwillingness to address this known issue, and the hazardous situation created by repeatedly restarting the fuel pump after each shut-off in order to reach "full" on the tank, toyota should be mandated to initiate a recall of all affected vehicles, where "affected" includes all vehicles that fail to fill the tank after the initial shut-off of the fuel pump.

Battery keeps draining after not driving the car for as little as 14 hours, although most often 4-5 days. Per phone communications with toyota (they have repeatedly refused to communicate via email), this is normal with new cars and is because the car isn't driven enough. They have specifically stated that not driving the car for 4-5 days is not enough and even that the time it happened after not driving it for 14 hours it was due to not driving it enough. This was not communicated at the time of buying the car and the owner's manual only specifies that the car needs to be driven at least every few months to keep the battery from draining.

My bought my vehicle brand new on december 10, 2019. On october 29, 2020 the battery stopped working with only 10k miles. I called toyota and told them my battery needed to be replaced. Toyota told me to jump start the car and drive there to replace the battery. I advised my car was stuck in the garage and we would need someone to tow the car. When the 'tow' arrived it was only a maintenance worker that jump started the vehicle and said i would need to drive it myself there. The worker advised me of the defective batteries for rav4 and other models. Once my car was turned on and out of the garage, i was pulling out of my driveway when my power steering lock warning signal flashed. I called and explained i was an hour from the dealership and needed my car towed to them and the warranty i paid for should cover it. Subsequent to getting my vehicle back, i received paperwork in the mail with a recall notice on 12/9/2020 explaining the possibility of my vehicle stalling while driving, which could increase the risk of a crash. I pulled out my paperwork from the tech and on the bottom notes i noticed the tech wrote 'interim status' explaining that i was advised there is currently an interim recall notice for the vehicle, but currently no remedy.

While they have provided me a loaner from a second rate rental company, i am extremely frustrated that i am not able to drive the car i am required to make payments on. Due to my age, the rental company charges more for a comparable vehicle, so i am forced to drive a greatly inferior car to that which i am paying for. Additionally, at the end of my lease, the vehicle will have significantly fewer miles that my lease agreement allows (since it has been parked on their lot for so long, which will significantly increase the value of the vehicle for their resale. I have asked them to buy back my vehicle, and they have been unwilling to work with me, as they are not required to do per my contract. Ultimately, i am paying for something that i am not receiving and am spending even more money due to the fuel inefficiency of the loaner. I feel like i paid for a steak dinner and got a mcdonalds happy meal without the toy.

Driving at interstate speed when small gravel breaks a silver dollar size star shaped crack in windshield on passenger side. Approximately 10 minutes later another object hit passenger side windshield and created another star slapped crack in the glass near passenger wiper arm. Had windshield replaced within 7 days upon returning home. The new windshield which is a genuine toyota windshield is now chipped in several places. Everything that hots the windshield either cracks the glass or creates a significant chip that interfere with proper vision. I feel the glass is defective. Toyota just said i was unlucky. But a windshield should afford some safety from road debris, that tipically doesn't crack or even chip the glass. If a quarter size rock or larger object hits the rav 4 windshield that i'm driving, i have no doubt that it will burst out. I have been driving for 53 years and has one windshield replaced prior to this one. This rav4 currently has approximately 38000 miles on the odometer. A shattered windshield is a significant risk factor in any accident. I don't know what would happen if the windshield supplied by the manufacturer proved defective.

Was at drive through cash machine, stopped, put into park, did my transaction, put car into drive left to get to street via a side street. Noted at stops that the brakes were hard as when abs is not quite right. On a town street, two pedestrians stepped out into my lane of travel. I put on my brakes, hard. The engine rev'd and continued faster and i kept my foot on the brake, the women got out of the lane. I really don't recall sequence, i was terrified (have had a car run away with me long ago). But i do know it was rev'ing hard, i was so terrified i did not note if any dash lights were on, or what the tach (?) was doing. Rav was in drive, i pushed lever to n and finally to park and the engine was shut down. I had pulled to the side of the street, so fired it up, and it was 'normal' brakes no longer hard. I cautiously pulled out into the lane and made it to the toyota dealer. It tried one more time to do a rev when i put the brakes on, but not like that first time as i immediately turned it off and put into neutral/park. Toyota service person showed concern and drove the rav around for about 10 minutes and could not get it to repeat this. He thinks maybe i should have the shop bypass the automatic stop engine thing, permanently but there's not longer a way to do in newer ravs. So pushed the a button to turn it off and fear driving it. Service man was going to call me back if he comes up with anything. He may not recall the unintentional engine revs of a few years ago in toyotas, which caused accidents and deaths. It was not the floor mats i only have the rubber ones, 'bolted down". First few weeks after purchase rav made bearing-like grinding noises when the auto stop was turned off so turned it back on. When a on or off, vehicle jerks coming to a stop and when moving forward after a stop. Car has <4000 miles. Bought new. *tr

On dec 14, 2020 i received an interim notice from toyota concerning my 2019 rav 4. I bought the car new (leftover) on may 29, 2020. When i received the interim recall i had had the car for almost seven months with approximately 3500 miles on the odometer. Subject of recall: vehicle may stall while driving. "the vehicle may stop operating (stall) and the driver would be unable to restart it". "if a vehicle stall occurs while driving, this could increase the risk of a crash". "we will notify you again when the remedy is available".I have done extensive research since it involves my safety as the driver. As stated there is no remedy. The 'list' at toyota was started in jan of 2020 for affected models. My car was added to the list in oct which means i drove for two months before being notified of a very serious recall. The repair plan is divided into phases. My rav 4 was phase 10 (!!) but has been moved to phase 11. The target date for repair is late march but since there is no fix for the problem i doubt this date is feasible. After a lot of back and forth with toyota via the dealership and my insistence that the car is a danger to drive, especially on highways, i left my car at the dealership and received a loaner. I am a 70 year old widow and spending $36,000 for a car was a very big decision. I am still making monthly payments on a vehicle sitting at the dealership indefinitely.I have spoken with toyota representatives about repurchasing the car for the purchase price but apparently they rarely do this. The fact there is no replacement part leads me to conclude toyota is reckless and uncaring about the lives of its buyers. I have dealt with many recalls in my lifetime but nothing as frightening as this. I feel strongly toyota has a responsibility to the consumer to offer a monetary (repurchase price) solution to the interim recall . (i don't know how to upload)

Fuel tank does not fill to correct capacity. Whenever i fill my tank, even when the low fuel light is on, i am only able to fill approximately 9 gallons. The advertised capacity of the tank is 14.5 gallons. This is verified by the range and fuel indicator on my dashboard. The fuel tank stops filling at about 3/4-7/8 of a tank and then range indicated between 380-400 miles. Toyota advertises a range on 580 miles.

On march 14, 2020, and at 12:30 pm, i crashed into the front of a parked small subaru suv on my private community street, which was at low-speed (10 mph) but the front of my car was badly damaged and cost me about $17,000 to fix it! While nothing happened to the other vehicle except some minor scratches on its front bumper! Also, my left leg was injured because of the harmful knee airbag, and god knows what would have happened to me if the accident was at a higher speed, or on the freeway? Or what will happen to me if another accident happens in the future at a higher speed, or on the freeway? So, i sent a complaint letter to toyota and asked them to return the car and cancel my contract with toyota financial services. But they denied my complaint and said that they do not believe the concern is the result of a defect in materials or workmanship! While i had told them that my complaint and concern is about safety issues and that vehicle is not safe at all, because the body of the vehicle is very weak and cannot save my life if another accident is likely to occur in the future at a higher speed, or on the freeway. And after that accident, i cannot trust my car anymore, but they just ignored me! I still cannot believe that a minor accident can cause that much damage to my car, while the car i crashed into was not damaged at all! The pictures of the cars and my injured leg are available upon request.

Like many others who bought a new generation rav4 hybrid (it seems to affect all trims as long as it's hybrid), i cannot get more than maybe 10 gallons in the tank. Advertised is 14.5 gallons, and there is no such thing as a 4+ gallon reserve in a private vehicle, even commercial vehicles. Toyota responded with "call us" after 5 or 6 emails. I drained it of fuel driving from texas to california, let it run dry until it was electric only, then took it to the gas station (literally right around the corner from where i was), and it still clicked the pump off - to full (though it doesn't read full anymore, it sits just below "f") - at just over 10 gallons. I have squeezed every last drop i could once and it didn't even read 11 gallons from empty, though i don't normally ever do that so the evap canisters don't get burned out. The average mpg and estimated range on the screen adds up with the math for only having about 10 gallons in the tank, 36.3 average with just over 10 gallons gives me about 300 miles, which is about what the odometer sees per fill from 1/4 full, when i usually fill up. It's been almost a year and toyota has been of zero assistance even acknowledging this, though 2 dealerships in texas (where i bought it) told me it was a known issue, and 2 in hawaii (where i live now) repeated that info. Again, this is a hybrid xse - the premier model for sporting i wanted, the light sporting i do anyway, and it has other problems too. One is decades old with the rav4 (window rattle), the other is with the a/c switching between modes. I can live with the other two, but not getting what was advertised in the fuel tank is worthy of complaint seeing as how many hundreds of others posted online about it this past year. Toyota needs to address this problem before it becomes yet another legal battle for them.

The gas tank of my 2019 toyota rav4 le hybrid will only fill to about 3/4 of a tank. My rav4 has a 14.5 gallon fuel tank. When i am near zero miles of range remaining, i often get less than 8 gallons at fill up. There is not a problem with the gas gauge. The tank read full only once, when the dealer filled the tank prior to delivery to me. I don't like to drive with less than a 1/4 tank of gas, as gas is used to cool the fuel pump. This results in most fuel stops only accepting between 4 and 6 gallons of gas. I recently took a 3000 mile trip that was 95% highway driving and that was my experience during the trip.

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.

When i arrived at dealership to speak with service manager (scott), technician was assigned and rode with me and confirmed the low brake speed squeal/whistle. After 2-3 hours, a different technician who was assigned to look at it claims "no noise observed after test drive, operating as designed." funny how they assigned 2 different technicians - one who observed the noise upon arrival, and the 2nd one who looked at it and claims no noise. When driving out of dealership service area, the low speed (<5mph) brake noise squeal was and is currently still there. Dealer continues to claim cold weather or moisture may be the cause (really - that sounds amazingly false!) and refuses to acknowledge or repair the brake noise issue. It's as if the dealership (stevens creek toyota, san jose) is waiting for a recall vs. Acknowledging the issue so toyota corporate will reimburse dealership for the repair cost for the brake noise issue.

I forgot to turn off the engine (push button) after parking. The engine ran for more than 5 hours until i returned. Unlike the traditional key that most of us remember to take it after parking. Removing the key will turn off the engine. I am of the opinion that this a critical safety issue: 1. The engine could overheat in hot summer and may even catch on fire 2. Anyone can drive the car away without the key. Low or totally no key signal means the driver is not near to the car. The engine should not be running at all. For the least, there should be should be some loud alert. The rav4 built-in technology has an auto shut off feature on acc mode after certain period and remote engine start/stop feature. One cannot start the car without the key nearby. Why cannot toyota incorporate the auto off feature on the key signal level, i.E. Below certain key signal level turn the engine off automatically. I have reported to toyota. It appears that toyota is not going to do anything at this moment.

After the low fuel warning system comes on the tank will only take between 9.2 to 9.7 gallons. The fuel tank is a 14.5 gallon tank and should not need filling until the vehicle goes over 500 miles. We usually get just under 400 miles per tank full. Somehow there is 5 gallons left in the tank when the low fuel warning light comes on.

We purchased our 2019 rav4 limited in late dec 2019 (27th) and have experienced a repeated issue with the infotainment system (engine 3.0 premium jbl). While operating the car, the radio will shut off, reboot, lock up, drop calls, etc. We have had the car back to the dealer once after 3 days and they could not find the problem. We will be bringing the car back for a second time in 2 months of owning... Toyota has no idea why this is happening.

I bought my new 2019 toyota rav4 hybrid xse and took possession on january 3 2020. Since then, i have refuled multiple times and noticed it would not take more than 9-10 gallons of gas from empty. I found myself refueling more times than my previous vehicles. When researching prior to purchase, the vehicle says it has a fuel capacity of 14.5 gallons and 580 miles per tank. I have never been able to get more than 9-10 gallons and it has always shown gas range in the 400 miles per tank. It has never given me anywhere close to 580 miles per tank. I took it today to the dealership after calling toyota on january 30th and the dealership said that all cars have a 4 gallon reserve tank. This was their response to the problem although i am sure nobody would like to find out how many gallons a car has in reserve after the refuel light is on for obvious safety reasons. When i refuled all my previous cars, the capacity was at least what it said on the manual or more. It has never been a difference of over 38% from what the manual says to what this vehicle can actually take when refueling from empty with the refueling warning on and the refueling light on. It is dangerous to try and follow toyota's official fuel capacity and range for this vehicle. If you follow the official range stated by toyota in the manual and vehicle information, drivers can run out of gas thinking the car has actually 14.5 gallons instead of 9-10 and a range of 580 miles instead of the actual 400 mile range. *ln*jb

This vehicle is a hybrid. The gas tank is supposed 14.5 gallons. The gas guage never shows as full. The vehicle showed 103 miles to empty so i filled it up. I could only add 7.414 gallons of gas before the pump stopped on the 2nd attempt. It clicked off just a little over 7 gallons. I pulled the nozzle out of the tank a little and was able to get about0.4 gallons additional in the tank before it cut off again. The gas guage still showed as a couple of lines before being filled yet i could get no more gas in the tank. Also, it only showed my vehicle range as 419 miles. At 40+ mpg and a 14.5 gallon tank, it should show over 580 miles to empty. There is definetely an issue with this gas tank. I have attached pictures of the before fill up, after fill up and the gas receipt showing the amount of gas i could get it the tank without risking an overflow. I really have no way of knowing how much gas is in the tank or how far i can expect to drive before running out of gas. I have more instances of this, all showing the same problem.
