I hate the sound this years Rav makes when it first excels. It sounds like a truck straining. I loved my other 2 Ravs , neither sounded like this. I wish it was quieter. Once in an SUV , I don’t want to go back to a car. I hope they change the way it sounds when you start off. My husband also finds it’s tight getting in passenger side without hitting your head .

Pros: good gas mileage, dependable. Cons: cheap interior rattles all the time, door color and dash color do not match, door controls are poorly positioned, door handle is not positioned well, underpowered, Android Auto/Apple car play has to be plugged in with wire while competitors offer wireless, lighting in the trunk area is non existent, lighting for center console does not point and the buttons are not lit so you do not know what you are pressing overhead, loud squeeling sounds come from engine compartment in reverse and when you are sitting still. I wish I had done more research before purchasing. I have previously owned 2 other Rav4s and they were built much better.

For all the people who complain about instability of the car. Please, take the LDA (lane departure alert) off. It is on the steering wheel and it pictures a car that is tilted, almost falling. I found out about it from the Toyota dealer and now I feel safe. Before, my hands got tired from keeping the car straight on the road. And yes, above 65mph gave me so much stress and fear. Not anymore. I am sure, book has the explanation for all the features, but most of us don’t read it. Maybe dealers should worn the buyers.

Worst Experience with a New Car EVER

I've always driven General Motors vehicles but in March 2021, I decided to give Toyota a chance after hearing wonderful things about the Rav4. After having the car for less than one month, I was at a stop light - completely stopped - and my car lunged forward TWICE and hit the car in front of me. While at the body shop, the technician was pulling the car around and had his foot on the brake and said the RMPs went up and the car lunged again. I immediately reported it to Toyota after the first incident. They sent someone to the body shop to perform diagnostic tests. The test was completed on 4/14. I reported the second incident on 4/27 (immediately after it was reported to me) and was told they could not do anything until the Toyota engineers review the diagnostic test data. To sum it up, I have a brand new car that I have not driven since 4/1/21 because I do not feel it is safe to drive. Neither my salesman at Van York or Toyota have been of any assistance.

I was surprised by negative reviews of the 2021 RAV4. I have had mine for a few months and have had no problems with it. Often new cars have little issues at first, but this one has had none and I hope this continues. I got the hybrid AWD model. The gas mileage is amazing and it did really well in the snow. Hopefully it continues to do well because I was planning to keep it for a very long time.
