Most uncomfortable seats I have ever sat in, after 20 minutes my foot goes numb, my back aches I cannot drive more than 45 minutes without extreme discomfort. my 2012 Fusion seat is a lazy boy next to this joke they call a seat zero lumbar support. If you don't have back problems but want them buy a RAV4. I have owned this for 6 Month's and have to take a loss trading it, it is that bad to sit in. The delay wipe has only 1 speed REALLY??? The cruise control is a lever attached to the steering wheel and when the wheel is in a certain position you tend to hit the wiper control. Brake rotors replaced at 20k not aggressive braking or towing, after much argument dealer replaced rear rotors not pads and wrote on the WARRANTY repair recommending I replace the front rotors, NO MORE TOYOTA'S for me. . Seems Toyota is living off a reputation instead of building on one

This is my 2nd RAV4 and will be my last. It started out pretty great, I bought it new and now have 45K miles. The sunroof rattles horribly and the dealer will not fix. The brakes/suspension sound like its eating something yet 3 different shops have told me its just how it was made. As other reviewers have said at certain times of the day the sun hits the chrome interior dash trim and its blinding. The radio/navigation screen is next to impossible to read in bright light, despite changing settings. The spare tire is only a donut. The seat fabric is wearing unevenly. The rear door/trunk doesn't have any automation and the tiny handle to pull it down is hard to find. The storage is limited and what is there is pretty useless. All in all, extremely disappointed.

I have a 2014 Rav4 purchased new. Has anyone had a problem with their RPM's surging or the Transmission not going into drive or not changing gears after the recalled Torque converter was replaced. This only happens when it's cold. My dealership has been trying to find the problem for 2 months to no avail. I absolutely no problems until the torque converter was replaced. Update 08/14/18 My dealership (Prince Toyota Tifton Ga) never found a problem. I had video to prove the problem. I have had no problem since the weather has been hot. Only time will tell when winter comes.

SHAME ON YOU TOYOTA

I have a 2014 Rav4. I have had nothing but electrical problems with locks and now my radio/cd/navigation. I have had electronic malfunction with locks which have been replace numerous times. It was fine when it was under warranty, but now that it is out of warranty. Right front passenger door won't open with key fob or with button on drivers side. It needs new actuator to the tune of $260.00, which is simply a magnet in the door to signal the lock to open and close. I called Toyota and they would DO NOTHING. How can you stand by your quality of your parts which can't even seem to last over a year? This vehicle is 4 years old. Now the radio stopped working. Same problem hundreds of others are complaining about with the same year Rav 4. Are you kidding me? The dealer wants $1200.00 to replace. I am disgusted in the quality and lack of responsibility of Toyota to stand by it's products and take care of their customers. Are you looking at these reviews Toyota?? You have a lot of dissatisfied customers.

My onboard radio went out of commission at the 4th year. I spent another $780 to get a new one.They said the wiring and interface of Toyota radio was too complicated to work properly. I never drove a car with radio went dead first. Is this "Toyota quality"? OMG! They ought to be ashamed of themselves. Not gonna buy Toyota anymore. In addition to the radio, my shock absorber tuber was leaking on the first 3 yrs, Toyota quality was once famous, not anymore! I'll buy Subaru next time.

The Rav 4 is a responsive, small SUV and well appointed. The auto liftgate is handy and all the features you might want are available in the Limited. HOWEVER, if you have an I-Phone 4, you will not be able to load the contacts from your phone on to the bluetooth system! Wish they had told us that the contacts would load on the base models, but NOT their top of the line model. If this is important to you, and it should be, look elsewhere.
Mechanically sound and very dependable

I’m unfortunately selling this vehicle currently. However, that is due to my cost for insurance. The vehicle itself is quite simply the best vehicle I’ve ever own. Bought at 89,000km and two and half years have brought up to 144,000km. Haven’t had to take it into the shop for mechanical issues once. I would absolutely recommend this vehicle or other RAV4 models to anyone.

Before you but a Rav4 there is a engine noise at 55-60 mph. The mechanic says that is normal but did not happen to us until 250 miles was put on the vehicle. Very sad because of the price you have to pay for the Rav.
