2019 Toyota RAV4 Engine

REGARDING COMPLAINT # 11390472 I HAVE NOT HAD A RESPONSE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW VIA R-MAIL; BJCOLLIER44@GMAIL.. THANK YOU. AS YET, THE ISSUE, HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED.

I AM WONDERING EXACTLY WHEN THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS PROBLEM.. (IT INVOLVES, 20V-064. ALSO, 20V01200. I AM UNDER THE IMPRESSION THEY WERE NOTIFIED OF "LOW-PRESSURE FUEL PUMP .PRIOR TO 10/28/2020. IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED THE DAY AFTER WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE... WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE OCTOBER 28TH, 2020. I TRULY THINK THE DEALERSHIP WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE SELLING IT TO US ON THE 28TH. OF OCTOBER, 2020..

SECOND TIME IN COLD WEATHER, LOSS OF POWER ON INTERSTATE ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENT. ALL LIGHTS ON DASH FLASHING AND FLASHING THROUGH SEVERAL CODES. FULL TANK OF GAS BOTH TIMES, WITH HEAT IN GAS TANK. ENGINE RUMBLING AND RUNNING ON 2WD, VERY WEEK POWER BOTH TIMES.

MY 2019 RAV4 ADVENTURE HAS A STRONG COOLANT SMELL, I FILLED THE RESERVOIR AND IN A FEW MONTHS GOT LOW LEVEL AGAIN, THE SMELL IS ONLY WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, I DON'T SEE ANY LEAKS. IT'S ALSO MAKE A STRANGE NOISE IN LOW RPM, BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000 RPM

ENGINE STALL AND RUN ROUGH WHEN DRIVING ON A CITY

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA RAV4. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AND SLOWING DOWN, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WELLESLEY TOYOTA (234 WORCESTER ST, WELLESLEY, MA 02481, 781-237-2970) WHERE THE MECHANIC RETRIEVED AN UNDISCLOSED FAULT CODE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CODE SHOWED A NON-SPECIFIC ENGINE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I NOTICED THAT IS A DRIP OF OIL UNDER THE CAR. LOOKS LIKE IT'S COMING FROM THE ENGINE. *TR

I NOTICE THAT MY RAV4 WAS DRIPPING OIL ON THE FLOOR OF THE GARAGE. I READ THE REPORTS ON YOUR SITE AND THIS MATTER COULD BE SERIOUS, AND CAN START FIRE.THE CAR IS NEW ONLY 8.000 MILES ON IT. I NEED HELP TO FIX IT. *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS AN ENGINE KNOCK/RATTLE NOISE AT COLD START UP.

ONCE THE CAR IS WARMED UP (30 MINUTES OF DRIVING), THE ENGINE MAKES A VERY STRANGE "MOO-ING" SOUND WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEED, SLOWING DOWN OR ACCELERATING FROM A LOW SPEED. THIS STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT THREE MONTHS AFTER I GOT THE VEHICLE (PURCHASED NEW). IT DOESN'T SEEM TO AFFECT THE DRIVING BUT IT IS A DISTURBING SOUND & I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S COMING FROM.

UPDATE TO CLAIM #11233589: AFTER GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP A SECOND TIME BECAUSE OIL CONTINUED TO CLIMB UP THE DIP STICK, THE SERVICE DEPT FOUND THAT YOU CANNOT PUT MORE THAN 4.6 QUARTS INTO THE RAV4. THE FACTORY PUT IN 5 QUARTS, AND THE DEALERSHIP ALSO PUT IN 5 QUARTS AT THE FIRST APPT. THE PROBLEM HAS NOW BEEN SOLVED SINCE THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF OIL IN NOW IN THE CAR.

PURCHASED AUTO 3/20/19 AND AT THAT TIME OIL APPEARED TO BE RIGHT AT MARK ON DIPSTICK. A MONTH LATER NOTICED THE OIL LEVEL RISING. TOOK RAV4 BACK TO DEALER 7/5/19 AND HAD NEW OIL AND FILTER INSTALLED AND DIPSTICK SET AT PROPER MARK. DEALER FELT IT WAS PROBABLY OVERFILLED AT FACTORY. HOWEVER, ON 7/20/19 THE OIL IS NOW 1/2 INCH ABOVE THE MARK SET BY THE DEALER ON 7/5. CONCERNED THIS MIGHT BE PROBLEMATIC FOR ALL RAVS. WILL BE CONTACTING DEALER AGAIN FOR POSSIBLE RESOLUTION.

VEHICLE MAKES A GRINDING/WINDING/LURCHING NOISE WHILE ACCELERATING, BRAKING AND DURING NORMAL DRIVING. PROBLEM GETS WORSE EVERY DAY.
