My vehicle was parked when I noticed what looked like water starting to come down from the top of the rear glass. I thought that was weird because there wasn't any water on the car. When I got out to make a closer inspection, the glass exploded. This occurred simply by closing my driver's side door.

I purchased my Toyota Rav4 le on May 2016 at South coast Toyota in costa mesa, California. I loved it just as much as the other Toyota cars I owned before. After 10 months and 7, 000 miles, I've noticed a clicking noise associated with a flickering headlights. They occur every time when shifting into drive and engaging the gear just above idle. On May 8th 2017, I decided to take it back to the dealer so they can take a look at it. First visit they stated that they could not find/replicate the noise nor the flickering headlights. The next day, May 9th 2017, I took it back and insisted that they check it again. They kept the car overnight. The next day they called me to go pick up the car. When I got there, the assistant service manager, thomas trafford, confirmed that they have found the noise but not the flickering headlights. And to my surprise, the shop foreman, bobby genton, claimed that the clicking noise was caused by ABS (anti-lock brake system) and it was normal in a Toyota Rav4 and there is nothing they can do about therefore I just have to get used to it. I asked him why was it that the clicking noise was not there when I first bought the car one year ago and it started just now after almost a year. His answer was: 'maybe it was there, you just didn't notice it till now.' I disagree because I have been driving different car brands, including Toyota, for over 30 years and I can assure you that I've never experienced the same I'm sure that the clicking noise and the flickering headlights are not normal in any other car brand (that is less than 10,000) let alone Toyota that is known for its good quality and performance. However, if the clicking noise and flickering headlights are an existing and normal condition, as they claim it to be, isn't Toyota obligated to make the consumers aware of it and let them decide if they really want the same car?

Sunroof imploded while driving to work. Heard explosion, looked up, and glass from sunroof starting falling into car. Sunroof visor was open at the time. Sunroof was closed. Was not a warm day (as I have seen this be a problem in other cases). Looked behind the car and did not see anything that might have fallen on the roof and caused the glass to break. There was no one in front of me (so it was not a stone/pebble from car in front of me).

At first reading this may not seem to be much of a safety issue, but giving it thought it really is. My Rav4 has a jbl greenedge radio installed with xm capability. The radio display screen is divided into 2 sections, the right shows what song is playing while the left side displays my preset channel listings. I have my preset channels batched together with all am, fm and xm stations grouped together. When changing from am to fm or back again the left side of the display changes accordingly, displaying the preset channel list and highlighting the channel being listened to. However if I go from either am or fm to xm the preset display does not change, the highlight bar disappears but the display stays on either the am or fm preset list. I am forced to either manually scroll by repeatedly touching the screen scroll icons or reach over and turn the radio off then back on again. When the car starts up a warning screen appears on the radio warning that being distracted by the screen may cause a serious accident, yet the radio they installed forces you to do just that. I have contacted both Toyota and jbl. Only Toyota has responded by saying that's just how this radio works. I am hopeful you will see this to be a safety issue and urge Toyota and jbl to amend the software for this radio to correct this issue. I have attached a photo showing that an xm station is playing but the preset display is still on fm.

Toyota pre-collision system (pcs) on 2016 Rav4. I never get any kind of warning, even when cars cut me off at highway speeds, I approach a car from behind at speed (I cannot get too risky here), etc. Other pcs systems on friends cars (non Toyota) have some warnings, even false ones a bit. I asked my dealer to check it was working, they had no procedures to test it other than obdii for sensors out. Seems like the promised and iihs tests indicated that this pcs system worked to stop the car. On line searches I cannot find anyone who has seen their system working or alarms. The Toyota video indicates warnings seem to occur at 7-10 car lengths - I have been cut off on highway at less than one car length with no warnings.

The mirrors have a small 'blind spot' mirror that is poorly located. To have the mirror positioned to see the neighboring lanes the main mirror shows almost 1/2 of it's area of the vehicle. To position the main mirror to properly show the area near and behind the vehicle the blind spot mirrors show an area that is irrelevant.
