I am unable to lock the driver side front door. Internal controls, remote controls, and the manual key fail. It will open and close (latch), but can be opened from the inside or outside, whether parked or running. I have not tried to open it from the outside when in motion. When attempting to lock, the mechanical indicator by the door handle moves from unlocked to locked to unlocked to locked rapidly and with a harsh rattle noise.
Mte, gallons to fill up, don't equal the miles to go after a fill up. Have had car a year, have only filled up once more than 10 or so gals, doesn't matter how many miles to empty show on gauges. Don't get anywher near the miles driven that was told to me. I fill up, usually takes about 9-10 gls. Will have less than 500 miles to drive on that tank of gas.driving local and on highway.
The sunroof on my 2019 Toyota rav 4 exploded while driving on the highway. No other cars or people were anywhere nearby. Nothing hit the sunroof. It exploded suddenly and sounded like we were shot at.

The vehicle key will not come out of the ignition. The vehicle was place on park, the key will go down to the accessory position. However, when the key is pushed in to remove the key, the key will not move to the off position, so the key may be removed.
Car lurched, shook and tilted while driving under normal conditions. Safety recall issued May 20, 2020 (20tb08/20ta08) says front lower arm suspension defect found for same make and model in production period 9/25/19-10/25/19, which post dates my purchase date by several months but seems to involve the same problem. I believe the problem is broader than Toyota has acknowledged and that Toyota is being dangerously dilatory in providing notice of the safety issues that it admits make these cars unsafe to drive.
The car's fuel tank does not fill up. Each time I fill up, it allows approx 10-11 gallons of a 14 gall tank. Unclear if the fuel gauge is working or if the alert for needing gas is accurate. Not performing as advertised.
Gas tank will not fill up completely - leaving about 2-4 gallons short that could not go inside the gas tank regardless how hard you tried. This happens every time you do pump the gas fill up.
This Toyota Rav4 adventure groans/squeaks after it's been running for a while. When this happens there is a 1 to 2 second hesitation and the steering seems unresponsive whenever the sound is heard. The longer the vehicle has been running or the hotter the outside temperature, the more often the sound is heard.
The car lurched and tilted for no reason when driven, on both the highway and local roads. No dashboard indication of any problem. Dealer service department says unable to duplicate the problem.
Since I purchased this vehicle 2/16/2019 me and my husband been smelling freon or antifreeze. This has been reported to servicing every time the vehicle get serviced but with little or no assistance.
1st incident: Sitting at stop light for a few mins as normal. When time to accelerate, the vehicle started lurching forward in a hard jerking motion. 2nd incident: Slower traffic. When driving in slower traffic or at slower speeds, ~20-35mph the vehicle will start lurching jerking forward. Took back to dealership for inspection, there were no issues found. Dealership reset internal computer, stating that "vehicle is operating normally". neither has issue has yet to cause an accident with any other drivers at this time. I do travel with dogs who are harnessed and seat-belted in the backseat, they would have been thrown to floor of car if not seat-belted. For myself, I get tossed forward several inches and head thrown forward. When driving in slower traffic and/or stop and go traffic, the car lurching/hard jerking forward will eventually cause an accident. All incidents have happen on dry city streets. I would assume during these incidents of the jerking forward that the break lights do not alert rear drivers that the car is in a stop/go motion.
My 2019 tortola Rav4 xle with 6401 miles on it has been experiencing problems with stalling since I first got it in August. I notice it especially when I don't make complete stops. It will stall and yank the car forward. It is annoying and embarrassing that my new car does not drive smooth. I will be taking it to a Toyota dealerships to get evaluated.
After entering an address, I deceided not to go there. The gps cannot be readdressed or deleted with a simple comand. It is most distracting to hear the repetition of the previous address while driving. No one person at the dealership could give instructions to delete the gps, except to turn it off.
