CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013 RAV4's top complaint is that the navigation screen is impossible to see in direct sunlight.
While certainly an annoyance, it's not a big deal in the world of car problems. Luckily the fix is a $10 anti-glare screen cover.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.

Struts are making a lot of noise in the rear of the car, also heat shield grommets are loose and produces a banging sound under the car. All the noises are noticeable while driving at low speeds. Torque converter and 6 solenoids had to be replaced
When viewing my 2013 Rav4 from the rear, I noticed that the car seems tilted to the left, in other words the Rav4 sits higher on the right side than the left. I measured from the top of each wheel well to the ground and founds an almost 1" difference between the right side and the left on both the front and rear of the Rav4. The measurement was repeated on 3 different level surfaces with the same results. The Rav4 was returned to the dealer and they agreed. They wrote on the service invoice that this condition is "as designed at this time. Also compared to other like vehicles and found same." The service manager also stated that they found differences from 0" to 3/4" on other Rav4's and that there was no repair at this time. I am concerned because this condition might affect the handling of this vehicle or result in uneven tire wear.
