Blah blah blah 👎

Get to the point !

Brought to you by fake FOX news😂

You think tired of what stand up to the plate and fix the proble Is share slick when they had their vehicles hitting all rusted o😢

1. We have used too much salt, which causes unnecessary corrosion. Other solutions are available.
2. Ask Toyota Canada for specifications of this special wire, allowing affordable aftermarket replacement.

My wife and I had a 2021 Venza Hybrid Limited. Since she drives 28-33k miles a year the gas savings were fantastic. In just under a year with 29k we got rid of the vehicle . Living in Michigan and its climate I wasn't taking any chances. The salesman who sold us the Toyota used to work for Lexus and said for the amount of miles driven your better of purchasing a used RX350 which has the best used car warranty . Six (6) years unlimeted miles Purcchased a 2021 RX in Jan of 2023 and never looked back.

Great, Toyota just lost $40,000 of my money. I understand Toyota does not care about my money, but I do! Honda, here I come!

All my life I wanted a Rav4 Hybrid. This year I finally bought a brand new 2023 and I love the hybrid mileage, the ground clearance and the 4 wheel drive. I was so in love that I totally ignored all the drastic design flaws. The roof is two inches too low. I am 5'10" and I bang my head every time I get in and out and what's even worse is the serious visibility flaws. When I look 30 degrees to the right the rear view mirror is directly in front of my face. If I want to look 30 degrees to the right I have to duck my head down to see underneath the rear view mirror. The center console is three inches too wide on both sides. It digs into my right knee making it painful to my knee cap to keep my foot on the accelerator pedal. I’m thinking about gluing on some padding to ease this problem. My wife also complains about leg discomfort on her side. The side pillars are so wide that I absolutely cannot see oncoming cars at intersections of less than ninety degrees. I feel like this is going to kill me one day. The headrest is so stupidly designed that I sometimes feel like it is forcing my head down.

After four months of constantly banging my head, serious visibility problems and the most uncomfortable seating of any car I have ever owned I am now sorry that I ever bought a RAV4 at all. Plus I heard of a new class action law suit because the moon roof drains are short circuiting the air bags which it claims Toyota knew about but failed to fix which the customer must now pay to fix. After four months of living with this car I'm now sorry I ever bought a RAV4.

Does this problem migrate to 2019 Highlander Hybrid????

Jesus this stupid automated voice. At least record your voice. A f… human voice

I knew this would drag out. I bailed out fast. Don't give a rat!

Does the lexus nx450+, a hybrid on the same platform, have the same issue?

This is a shitty video. It leads you on way too long. And then when he gets to the actual problem, he doesn't show any actual pictures or video of the actual issue. Come on do better.

the problem is artificial intelligence who made this video!!! The Rat 4 is awesome, this is just trying to throw distrust where there shouldn't be any.

I am amazed that Toyota does not act more resposivebly towards those customers and future ones who where amiing to buy a Toyota Hydride or Prime. Did you know that GM was the prime sales in Canada and now they are not anymore. So Toyota if do not care about us in Canada we will go some where else. Money does not have any flavor or sense. So if you are a resposible company like you have always said it times to proove it.

Total WASTE OF TIME

It’s ugly.

Get to the point - never finished video

Why use 50 words when 100,000 will do

What am I missing? If this is in fact a problem then WHY isn't there a RECALL? WTF??
Especially if there can be FATAL consequences and BIG TIME LAWSUITS.
Explain this SIMPLE question to me.

Aw gee sus, surely you people can fix this small problem yourselves ? It only takes a few minutes to do a good sealing job, aw gee sus !

This video is long winded which is a mark of bullshit.

so I had to watch a 4 minute Toyota commercial first?

I’m glad I got a CX-5. It has a much more luxurious and higher quality interior, higher reliability and safety ratings. Not to mention more standard features and standard AWD. All this for thousands less than equivalent RAV4 trim levels.

I have a 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. Now i know. There is always something with Toyota.

Did they fix the bad oil rings recently ?

Don’t believe any thing this guy says, I work at a Canadian Toyota dealership

The worst thing about most SUVs etc are those ugly roof rails, they take away the glamour of any car, makes them look like works vehicles, and designers get paid big money for this sort of crap, tasteless imbeciles, why not just have an option of adding roof rails if the customer wants them, these designers are morons.

I'm sure the Toyota will be very comfortable to drive in America, the roads in the add provide the evidence that road surfaces in America ARE superb!!!!!!!! HOWEVER, when the same car is driven on roads in the UK the result is DESTRUCTIVE!!!!!! Thats without parking at LUTON airport.!

The Official report this week confirms that ALL roads in the UK are now considered THE WORST ROADS ANYWHERE IN EUROPE FOR POTHOLES, BROKEN/RUTTED SURFACES, all leading to the HIGHEST REPAIR BILLS ANYWHERE IN EUROPE , & ALSO PROBABLY IN AMERICA.

So, all you Americans reading this FACTUAL admission, get in your vehicles & enjoy the good roads you all have, whilst remembering that us in 6th WORLD UK are either having to stay in the home, walk or catch a local bus.because WE cant afford the horrendous repair bills ........unless you are part of the elite 5% who WILL pay anything.

This is one of the major reason Toyota trying to blame on Covid and shortage of parts to produce more RAV4 hybrid which causes the wait up to years if you want to order a hybrid model, meanwhile, Honda and other manufacturer are having no problems with parts to produces hybrid vehicles...

Toyota was a fabric maker way back when. Toyota logo is symbol of thread going through the eye of a needle

Nice clip of RAV4 assembly but the concerned cable component (that this movie is all about) is not shown.

So why are only north America cars having this issue? Why are European and Japanese vehicles not having this corrosion issue. My 4 year old car has no issue the dealer examined the the connection there no water or dirt build up we salt our roads summer and winter in the uk . My car goes through rivers etc on a daily basis. So it well exposed to water mud etc

BUY TESLA STOCK Now

Over a year ago....this issue was addressed by TOYOTA USA. It sent out letters to ALL affected hybrid vehicle owners advising that Toyota will replace cable free of charge...if cable fails due to corrosion issues up to 8 year warranty or 100k miles, whichever comes first. 
In drier and less cold states (no salt on streets in winter)...it's not likely to ever be an issue in my opinion after researching the issue a lot as I own a 2019 Rav4 hybrid.

Wouldn't exetronic rust protection solve this problem I have it in my 4×4 and I drive though water daily and my car is rust free for over 8 years so far

In Australia you wait ✋️ 2 years for a RAV4 Hybrid Cruisder. Sales have dropped 30% in Australia. With the price increases whilst you wait has now made my RAV more expensive than a Tesla 3. Fleets of cars have changed from Toyota to Fords and Mitsubishis. What and now there are build issue?? More expensive and biuld problems sounds like a great deal. I have gone from a Toyota fan to a rabid hater. I am telling all my friends dont buy a Toyota.

Pay $50k for a subcompact junk. Good move.

With anti corrosion lube and sleeve with boot cover at the time of mfg it would never be a problem, always about money and the lack of the mfg taking responsibility.

RAV4, they are massive problematic for American consumers lately. Especially Toyota engineering in America, made in America, not reliable became costly to owners.
Toyota customers care coverage no longer got fair deal after warranty period.
Especially the recalled for most “Frame” five years or more ago, but not many Toyota owners qualified for such Frame corrosion replacements.

Guess what? I lease a 2023 RAV4 Hybrid and received a recall letter from Toyota. It turns out the roof rack gaskets may deteriorate and allow water to affect the electronics in the side air bags and also dashboard causing major costly problems. The letter stated if you have no issue, attach the letter to your car warranty and Toyota will fix the problem with a 10 year service guarantee. If it isn't one thing it will be another. What a mess.

Ugly crossover, plus Toyota doesn't that great of design/build-quality these days & are largely coasting along on an outdated reputation for quality.

If Toyota can just declare the electrical cable is not a component of the Hybrid system, what is to keep them from declaring the battery, electric motor, etc. as not components of the system? To me, they have made a false and misleading claim about the warranty on the Hybrid system and should be held accountable.

Pity Toyota screws over customers so easily over an obvious design flaw .

Subaru Forester is better.

old news. Toyota already fixed this.

There is a ton of wrong information in the first 5 min talking about the rav. Like it said safety sense 2.0 it has 3.0 spoke about the camera in the emblem it is not there it has a radar there plus alot more

It's a poor car on many fronts. I drove one for a week whilst my car was in the garage. I drive on a mixture of unmarked, poorly surfaced old rural roads, to B roads, single carriageway A roads and some motorways. On the poor rural roads, the car would send me bouncing sideways and vertically, if you hit a bumpy section of at 40 to 50 mph, the steering would not keep the car on a consistent line, it bounced resulting in loss of control as it tried a to conform to the road.
