The mechanized power liftgateâ the rear door, the primary way to access the back of vehicleâfails to open & close as intended. A continuous beeping noise sounds due to the liftgateâs failure to fully open and close. We reported this issue to the dealer multiple times during 2025.

The contact owns a 2022 Toyota Rav4 Prime. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 MPH, there was a loud bang like a gunshot heard, and the sunroof shattered. The vehicle was pulled over to the side of the road, and the contact inspected the vehicle, but the contact was unable to determine the cause of the shattering of the sunroof glass. The vehicle was then taken to the residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failur

The 12v battery keeps dying. The dealer has checked it multiple times and finally replaced it with a new one which has now died twice. The weather has not been freezing, car is garage, i don't leave anything on that would drain battery and I drive it several times a week. I have over 23,000 miles. It dies at worst time when I really need to go somewhere.
The idling on this car has had a slight knocking sound but it goes off when engine is warm and i have never got a check engine light. i noticed recently when driving the car had a slight jerk but still no check engine light. until traveling on day it came on and i scanned the codes and replaced all applicable parts - the electrical system is pointing to a bypass hose which was changed as well as a camshaft sensor which still didi not solve the issue. i check online it found many others had this

I was slowly pulling (front end forward) into a parking space at a local retail store. Parking spots are perpendicular to building. There is a space about the width of a sidewalk that runs along the front of the building. As I was coming to a complete stop, the car suddenly accelerated on its own, crashed into the building and then stopped. The airbag did not deploy. The car is available for inspection. Both Toyota and Farmers Insurance have said they will pull data from the event logs. T
Driving at highway speed on US101 N with no other vehicles in sight (5:50 AM), moonroof exploded outward with the sound of a gunshot. Moonroof glass and interior cover were closed. Inside temperature was 72 ºF, exterior temperature was 63 ºF and clear, and the sun had not yet crested the mountains (not a large temperature differential). No warning lamps or other problems prior to event. Remaining glass is domed outward.
On Friday 4/26/24 at about 8 PM, I pulled vehicle into garage and suddenly was aware that vehicle was crashing into shelving against the garage wall in front of its usual stopping place. I recall application of brakes and believe that I put into reverse in order to stop progression/acceleration. After it stopped, I was able to get out of the vehicle and describe the incident to my husband who came out from the house, having heard the crash. The hood and front parts of the car were damaged and

Vehicle does not stop if one tire is going over a man hole cover, divit in the road, bump etc. It also skids forward when this happens and almost like jumps (as if anti-lock brakes where let loose and then pressed again) even if I am braking. This has been happening since the day I bought the car brand new off the lot. The traction control light also goes off. If I am going down a hill while this happens the car can jump forward multiple feet. This is a safety concern even if it is part of the h
Remote Start Option, has been disabled by Dealer, reportedly in January of 2023. Car was purchased 3/10/23 from dealer and feature was working via a Remote Subscription App which was not Renewed on 9/23.

I was driving on a highway going around 45 mph. The sun/moon roof exploded. I wasn't under anything that could have fallen, no cars were around and I did not see anything in the air. It was sunny, 67 degrees with a breeze. This happened on Sunday so no confirmation or inspection has occurred. No warning lamps or messages appeared either before or after it exploded. I do know that Rav4 Prime's will display messages when things break including windows as I was rear-ended and the car was telling me

This happened to me today but I have also recently heard about another report of the same (facebook rav4 prime web page) I started the car, it had sufficient battery so was in âEVâ mode. I placed it in reverse with my foot on the brake pedal. I waited a couple seconds for one reason or another and with my foot still firmly on the brake pedal it started moving in reverse. I pushed the brake pedal extraordinarily hard and the car stopped after a few feet. No incident precipitated from this bu
