Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Many things. On the first day i thought i heard an engine noise. on the second day the remote door look did not work, on the sixth day the indoor lights did not go off after locking and when they eventually went off they came back on again.On the tenth day i was on the motorway and several warning lights came on. after five miles having spoken to Jemca Toyota who thought it could be a sensor, the gear box started to shake. The car had to be towed back to Toyota in London from Bedfordshire. In total i did 190 miles and i asked for my money back as i have since read these problems have been experienced by other Toyota drivers of the Rav 4 for some time in the states.
