"The vibration was caused by the driveshafts; which needed to be replaced."

"there was vibration while driving."

"Only experienced it once due to ongoing wear. Problem repaired successfully. $3000 to repair."

"Muffler was old and had a leak"

"Minor water intrusion in rear storage storage compartment"

"The exhaust pipe just in front of the muffler rusted through in the summer of 2023 at about 102K miles. This was replaced for about $700 at a local muffler shop."

"It is a small head gasket leak"

"Not sure if it was a leak or it is burning oil. This was just discovered recently and I am monitoring the oil level. This is not something I needed to do with my last 2 Toyotas (another RAV4 2003 model and a Corolla All Trac - 1994 model)."

"Leaking oil was noted in under carriage shield during routine oil change.. Oil pan gasket replacement fixed problem."

"Paint is pealing off the car in large sheets. I had taken it to the local dealer, Fred Anderson, and was told its a two year wait. I reported it twice over the next year. I thought I was added to the wait list. This was 2017. I was the told in 2022 when a new dealer took over that the recall was over and I missed out getting it repainted under the recall. I called Toyota corporate and the customer service rep told me it was my fault for not requiring it be noted and I should have requested a copy of the service request. I have 5 Toyotas presently. They are good cars/trucks, but after this I will move to Honda."

"Rust caused a leak in the rear passenger window that causes water from rain to leak into bottom of storage area."

"i think its normal rust for 14 year year old vehicle"

"Sunroof has begun to leak in the past year."

"Oil actuators very noisey, warning lights re 4 wheel Dr.on, not driver engaged. Stalls at idle. 3 quarts of oil disappeared from the engine. Rattling noise from engine compartment."

"Heat shield rattles and we have yet to solve it. Also there was an issue with the starter."

"This past year(2023) the compressor just died."

"Had to have a belt replaced. Vehicle was undriveable"

"The air conditioning system had a small leak, so the freon only lasted one season. Eventually I learned that it could no longer be refilled (due to our state's air quality laws) and I had to replace the A/C system with a new AC condenser and valves. This happened at 116,000 miles, so I got a lot of mileage out of the original system."

"Cant remember details but mechanic had it for weeks and took it apart. Ended up having it towed somewhere else and we resolved it by putting in a rebuilt engine. Thought original mechanic did something shady but I wanted to keep car because I was attached to it."

"Tire pressure sensor(s) indicated low tire pressure. 2010 RAV does not specify which tire. Tires were 2-3 psi low including full-size spare in compartment mounted on rear door. Sensor still indicating low pressure after filling all 5 tires to correct pressure level. Scheduled with dealer to check it out and found out 2 of the tire sensors had failed and were activating their end of life signal and the rest were soon to do so, so had all 5 sensors replaced by dealer at almost $200 each."

"the latch door lock frose and could not be shut. exterior paint keeps peeling"

"Water pump making noise indicating it was failing. Had it replaced by dealer at 128,000 miles for a little over $500."

"The vapor recovery system in the fuel tank failed. It's 14 years old, what can I say? It was a week long, $1,300 repair."

"During normal acceleration, the gearbox rattles between 35 and 45 miles per hour. Above that speed, below that speed, or during hard acceleration, it doesn't exhibit this sound. It doesn't appear to affect the performance of the vehicle."
