Road debris damaged AC condenser that cools batteries of RAV4 Prime. A quick google search yields many other cases over multiple model years highlighting a design failure on the part of Toyota. Not only is the repair costly, if not quickly remedied could lead to damaged hybrid batteries and possibly even fire.

I was driving on a busy road at rush-hour. I was behind a school bus at a light. I stopped the car the way I always do but the car kept inching up very very slowly. I could not stop the car. It just kept moving until I hit the back of the bus!!! there was no damage to the bus, but my vehicle has a lot of damage on it. It was almost new 2024 RAV4 prime!!! I have since read that there have been a lot of recalls on this vehicle for brake problems. I could not drive the car and had to have it towed
The electronic dashboard with speedometer, and information regarding mechanical functions and fuel has gone blank. This recall has been issued however, Toyota does not yet have a fix. They are estimating sometime in December, however no specific date for a fix. I have followed up with the Toyota dealer who stated that I should file a complaint regarding the delay in a fix.

The driver was pulling into a friend's carport. After crossing a small curb her foot was taken off the gas and was moving to the brake. The car was going slightly uphill as slow as a car can go with no gas pedal depressed. The car then accelerated as if someone pressed the gas to the floor. In a matter of 8 feet it gained enough speed and momentum that when it hit our friend's parked car the 4 door SUV was pushed forward 4 feet. The gas pedal was never pushed by the driver. No failed component w

While driving at no more than 5 mph, looking for a parking space, the car suddenly accelerated dramatically. I vigorously applied pressure to the brake but the car continued to go forward, sideswiping a parked pickup truck and crashing through a metal fence and coming up against a rock wall. Fortunately, there were no pedestrians walking through the parking lot and no one was injured. I donât know if the problem has been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center.

Moonroof spontaneously exploded while driving on the highway. The moonroof was closed, no one was trying to open it. All windows were closed, no one was trying to open them. My husband was driving and differently we heard a loud explosion which sounded like a shotgun going off and thought someone was shooting at us. I looked behind the car and could see glass flying everywhere. We safely pulled over and the entire moon roof had randomly and spontaneous exploded. No collision. Nothing fell on us

My girlfriend's father was driving at normal driving speed on the highway when the tire blew out for no reason. There are multiple blown out sections of the tire on both the internal and external sides of the tire that would appear to be a structural failure. This was definitely not a puncture due to the failures completely around the entire circumference on both sides of the tire. The tire was inflated as per spec. This caused vehicle instability and was a dangerous situation so he had to q
Windshield cracked by itself while pulling out from home garage. No visible signs of hit by foreign object. Cannot feel the crack with finger tips from inside or outside. Crack seems started from defroster.
I was stopped at a red light at an intersection, when a car pulled up next to me, and the driver rolled down the window to tell me my vehicle was on fire. I got out of my vehicle while the driver of the other car called 911. Brookline Police & Fire came, firefighters extinguished the fire, and one of the emergency services responders had a wrecker come & take the car away. The car was towed to Watertown, then collected by Safety Insurance, which got a repair estimate of $95,000. The car was deem
