Late model Toyota Rav4's from my research seem to have an ongoing problem with the evap charcoal canister requiring replacement (see nhtsb 10033407). My car (although not a 2009) has the same exact obd diagnostic codes listed in the bulletin above yet 2011 Rav4's haven't been listed with this problem. Toyota warrants them for 3 years, 36K miles but most seem to fail just after the warranty ends. My 2011 Rav4, 4 cyl. With 51K miles experienced this problem 19 months (and 46K miles) after manufacture (9/10) and Toyota has refused to correct the problem. The solution is a $1000+ repair. All other emissions equipment on my car is warranted for up to 80K miles or 8 yrs and is in good working order.

Stopped at a red light. Car started moving forward. Thought someone was pushing car from behind. Engine revved up and we were moving into the intersection and the light was still red. Pushed very hard on brake and quickly put car in neutral. Engine revved to about 6,500 RPM in neutral, then back to normal.
