Not safe to take on long trips.

This car has 8 recalls..many of them serious. I am afraid to take it on a long trip. I cant believe Toyota is so indifferent to this problem.

Love this vehicle!

So glad we got this. I went from a Ford Explorer and so happy I did! It also helps that we bought from an amazing dealer! They were so helpful in making our decision

Best looking vehicle including reliability I have

Perfect in every way except for one complaint. After approx 8 months the steering began making a groaning and sometimes a clunk when turning the steering wheel at slow speed like when parking. Notified the dealer service dept that told me it is quite normal??..that it's the electric steering assist motor...weird.

Our hybrid Rav4 is great

The fuel mileage is super, the vehicle has plenty of get up and go on the highway, its comfortable and has many terrific safety features. We only have one problem to report, one that has been widely recognized and for which Toyota is working on a solution. The fuel tank will not accept its full rated capacity. We can only seem to get 10 gallons or so into it.

fuel pump recall serious problem no fix

The fuel pump recall is a serious safety problem (according to corporate cust service) without any known fix available. So this very expensive fairly new car must sit unused. No resolution received

First Toyota I've owned.

Just learning all the many options on this vehicle. Only had it 5 days so anxious to get acquainted with it. So far I love driving it & the way it handles.

I hoping this will be my best car yet.

I love it. It’s roomy, smooth on the road and more. I love the color and how sporty the car is. Thanks so much for your help.
