Toyota RAV4 Hybrid

""Sometimes it connects automatically, others it fails to connect and I have to do it manually. Periodically, it's working fine and while I'm driving, I get a Time-Out message and have to reconnect it while navigating. This is a frequent hassle and can be dangerous!""

""The wireless Apple CarPlay available in the RAV4 is completely unreliable. The system uses the GPS antenna on the car and often show the car traveling the wrong direction. This is completely unsafe for the driver to use. The only current fix is to use wired Apple CarPlay so that the location comes from the phone. Toyota is aware of this problem, but has yet to provide a fix. I consider this to be completely unacceptable.""

"Navigation thru apple carplay is flaky-system frequently loses track of the cars position. Toyota dealer says that Toyota is aware of the problem but still no fix after a year"

""The goofy thing interrupts regular settings and the iPhone needs to be powered down to fix the problem. It should ask before interrupting. Their whole system in not intuitive. We are in the 21st century, and RAIOS and Incar electronics should not be a challenge. Heck, cars drive themselves now.""

"Did not like my LG cellphone. Samsung phone works fine."

"Display screen freezes, touchscreen inputs and the on/off/volume knob do not work. The vehicle must be turned off and turned back, sometimes more than once, to return the system to working order."

""When starting up and connecting to cars gps/other connected systems, screen would go blank""

"i had to learn how to reset the display happened twice"

"Just started this week - dashboard screen doesnt pick up gps directions any more - says No Message."

"Would disconnect multi info and ask for pin. Had to change pin three times to resolve problem."

"Sensor in front bumper stopped working so Cruise Control stopped working"

""Light from the display is blinding at night, especially when looking right. Set to low setting.""

"wife'scar multiple times to reset so played audiobooks and once to reset display after we researched"

"Bluetooth connection to phone is suddenly lost while Apple CarPlay navigation is in use, forcing driver to reconnect while en route. This happens without warning about once per hour of driving, on average"

"Samsung 21 won't pair with the car so the Toyota app can't be used."

"The phone pairing is always a crap shoot. Sometimes it pairs and sometimes it doesn't. You have to reset the infotainment system while driving to attempt to reconnect. Glitchy."

""About nine months after purchase, the Toyota App no longer connected on my cellphone, tablet, and computer. Local Toyota service could not find an issue. Local Toyota contacted the Toyota corporate Help-desk, who said my account was current and working and should have no problem connecting. I was told to wait one week to see if any software updates would occur that would correct this problem. It did not. Three months later, an update corrected the problem. Since I was then under the complimentary term of the App service, I was not reimbursed for lost accessibility. But I now pay for the service, which has been working fine for the past days.""

"The radio goes out for short periods time; it send to be glitching."

"Happened about 6 times. Voice command just does not work although the screen shows a dialog box."

""Again, not intuitive and a pain to use.""

""The front brakes squeak when I exit my 30-foot residential concrete driveway to the street. This started around 6 months after purchase. Toyota service has been scheduled. The vehicle's engine hood shudders in the wind and shudders as you pass over bumps. Toyota service said, "That's just the way it is, and you will learn to live with it." I feel they have engineered their hood metal panel to be too light and thin.""

"The storage pocket above the rear view mirror, some people keep their sun glasses in, rattles when car drives over an uneven road. Also, many buttons, knobs for accessories are too small to see. Some are impossible too see until you open your door and look under the steering wheel. The speed odometer area is impossible to see in bright sun light and also hard to see At night. If your car is due for services some guages are frozen and you are looking at a see your maintenance provider. I am very disappointed in the car and will not buy another. The only that is worth talking about is the good gas mileage. Sun roof noisy."

"Upon picking up the vehicle after dealer prep the RAV had a very strong cologne smell. It was not there during the test drives and has only gotten worse. The dealer has changed filters three times;they flushed the A/C system; the car has been detailed with seats shampooed, and always the smell returns and seems to get worse. It is so strong that anyone who rides in the RAV without windows open gets a headache. The service rep at the dealer has thrown his hands up. The RAV performs flawlessly otherwise and I say I would buy another if and when I need too because I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER USED VEHICLE."

"drivers side window would not retract"
