"We've bought Toyotas since we were married in 1976. We have found them to be very realiable. We're had corolla, camrays, Supra, Thundra, other trucks, and this is my second Rav 4"

"As a long term West Herr customer, I recently referred a friend to "Casey Mac Alpine" at West Herr Toyota of Williamsville. Just wanted to express the great customer service that my friend received from "Casey"which was "Class A all the way. She mentioned that this was the best car buying experience that she has ever had in the many years of dealing with sales people. She felt that the he listened and cared!"

"Fun to drive, Not a luxury car, nice little commuter that holds a lot. Great on gas. I use the Rav4 to get to and from work about 5 miles each way. I also have horses and need to hall feed from time to time and this little SUV does it all. Recently put 10 bags of shavings in it with no trouble at all. I needed a car with good gas mileage and could hall feed, and large dogs. This Rav4 seems to do it all with ease. So far I love it. Don't think i would like it on a long trip."

"First off, my family has always owned a Toyota and NEVER ever had problems. We were always satisfied by how reliable the quality of Toyota vehicles were. With an almost 1 yr old and me being pregnant, my husband and I decided we needed to buy a brand new car. He wanted a Ford or Jeep, but I insisted on Toyota. I did so much research and showed him all the great consumer and expert reviews on the Rav4. He finally caved in and we bought a brand new 2012 Rav4. We got it in August 2012 and loved it! But then 3 months later (1,200 mileage only) in November (we live in the UK by the way, stationed in England), it broke down on me and my daughter at night in the cold. We were stuck for 1.5hr trying to get help and then finally a friend was able to get us but he tried to drive it too, and it broke down on him too. I know my prego hormones were out of wack, but it was awful and my daughter was crying hysterically by the way. We were cold and scared! My husband tried to drive it to the Cambridge Toyota center but it broke down on him too and he had to wait 4hrs and 40 mins for someone to tow it to the dealership. Then it took almost 2 weeks to figure out what was wrong with it. My husband who was deploying the following week at first was asking friends for rides to his deployment appointments and briefings, but since it was taking longer than expected we had to rent a car (which is not covered by warranty). It was just the worst timing ever. The fuel pump pressure was defective. Warranty covered it and is "fixed" they say, but apparently it is still causing problems because our neighbors who are currently watching the car for us (they'll be watching it for about 6 months) says it still runs when they drive it, but it feels like it might stall at stops. It hasn't stalled yet, but STILL, what safety is that?! Sorry Toyota, this experience totally made me never want to own one, and not only do I feel betrayed by Toyota's reliable past, I also feel like I disrespected my husband by not considering the Ford or Jeep he wanted. Should have just listened to him and trusted him! Totally disappointed and not looking forward to going back to the UK to drive a potentially hazardous car for our family."

"This is the third Rav4 I've owned. They never disappoint. Excellent performance, comfort, and very reliable. Seventy cubic feet of cargo space, comes in handy, on many occasions. Living in New England, the Rav4, enables you to drive in any condition, with confidence. I've had a direct influence on six friends, who also purchased Rav4's."
