2020 Toyota RAV4 Lane departure Problems

“When the feature is engaged, the car changes lanes. Had it inspected and adjusted by the dealer. Dealer said if I don't like the feature, turn it off so I do not use this safety feature as it would cause me to have an accident. I've only turned it on when I can do so safely without someone near me to show. Feature is only engaged over 35 MPH so when I am on the highway.”

“New vehicle brought in for it's 5k maintenance, to the service department of the dealership it was purchased from. I pointed out several issues with the gas tank range, bsm, camera shutting off, and that I have to keep the stearing wheel turned to the right in order to go straight. 5k maintenance is performed, they noticed the car needed to be realigned. Driving home, no difference from when first brought in. …”

“A few months after I purchased my 2020 RAV4 xle hybrid, I noticed that my brakes squeaks whenever I make a quick stop, or after I release the brakes after stopping or when I am backing up. It doesn't matter on the kind of road that I am on. I brought my car to the dealership and they said that it is normal for a hybrid to squeaks due to the break actuator. I know people with Toyota hybrids and they do not have this problem. I am concerned because this could be a dangerous issue. Please advise. Thank you”

“I have had a number of instances where my vehicle's lane keep assist will randomly jerk me out of my lane. In sept 2020 I experienced a significant event of this happening when I was driving in the right lane of an interstate and the vehicle jerked right suddenly, pulling the vehicle into the right shoulder and almost drove me off the interstate. Another significant instance happened on 1/23/2021. I was driving northbound on I-44 and I was in the middle of 3 lanes. My vehicle suddenly jerked the vehicle to the left into the left lane of traffic. …”

“I bumped the car in front of me when starting from a red light at an intersection. Impact speed was less than 3 MPH. The damage from this impact resulted in repair cost of almost $4,200. This is outrageous and an example of poor design on the part of Toyota. It is my understanding that the standards require vehicles to absorb up to 5 MPH frontal impact with no damage. Had I known this vehicle was so poorly protected I would have chosen to purchase something else.”
