What Owners Say
"just stopped working.dealer fixed it"
Anonymous, (2018 Toyota RAV4 LE 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"The Scout navy system lacks a gps moving map, totally dependent on your iPhone cell tower reception, only display is arrows, very difficult to load, overall..useless. We were told it was a gps moving map display by salesman, but found otherwise after purchasing."

Anonymous, FL (2018 Toyota RAV4 XLE 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"The program itself is cumbersome to use, taking too much time to type in information. Seems antiquated compared to Google Maps."
Anonymous, CA (2018 Toyota RAV4 XLE 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"Navigation system still out of date, software updates are expensive at consumers cost $200. Software is slow, and not efficient. Voice direction comes too late, or after the fact."
Lawrence D., VA (2018 Toyota RAV4 Limited 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"Navigation chip was obsolete upon delivery. Toyota/Dealer has yet to install new chip."
J T., NC (2018 Toyota RAV4 Platinum 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"The Entune system is very poorly designed. It's hard to use, not intuitive, and frankly should be an embarrassment to the Toyota design teams. The GPS is even worse. In fact, the Entune navigation systems requires the use of the GPS on my phone. The resulting interface is a very sloppy, slapped together pathetic solution. In fact, the phone based GPS does not correctly find the shortest routes on long distance trips. Recently, on an 800 mile trip (I was forced to buy a Garmin portal GPS to use separately....after paying an extra $1,000 for the Entune system) my Garmin system showed the correct distance to be 800 miles. The Entune GPS showed it to be over 1,000 and routed way out of the way. Road noise is still a big issue and the passenger door leaks. This car is a disappointment, too much cheap plastic, it feels clumsy on the road, the engine hesitates when i need to pass other cars and the fuel mileage is much worse than expected. The driver display console is very confusing and most of it is unreadable when driving. (I'm over 65 and wear bifocals) I've been a Toyota customer for over 20 years. This is the last one that I will own. I'm truly disappointed."

Curtis H., OH (2018 Toyota RAV4 Limited 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"The clarity of the radio varies by location where my 2015 Honda CRV clarity is constant."
Anonymous, VA (2018 Toyota RAV4 XLE 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"The updates didn't fix the problem for Bluetooth connections and GPS"
Anonymous, TN (2018 Toyota RAV4 XLE 2.5-L 4 Cyl)"Despite using voice training, the system does not hear my or my spouse's voice clearly. It is cumbersome to use. Had a better one in previous car that was 6 years older (a Hyundai)."

"Backup Camera display is very dim. Dealer checked and said they turned up brightness but the brightness was already max before they checked it."
