“Truck hits a car that car lose control and drive in front of my wife wile driving she crash and the only messege apear on dash panel was air bag system malfunction my car is a Rav4 2022, before the crash lights like tps control come on and off”

NHTSA complaint #11692322, filed 2025-10

“Within the 1st year I purchased it new, I would get a warning that the RSA is malfunctioning. It seems to happen when I park in the sun and the windshield is very hot. The warning in my dash prevents me from seeing my other readings; mph, fuel, and I can't use my other safety features; LDA, PCS or cruise control. I've taken it in but then it does a reset and the technicians say there's nothing wrong. The warnings happen every month, weekly. I just got tired of taking it in to hear they don't see anything wrong!”

“My wife and I were traveling down SR74 mp 12 and rear ended a cow at 68 miles per hour. The airbags did not deploy from impact and yet the car is totaled the hood started through the safety glass of the windshield.”

NHTSA complaint #11577399, filed 2024-03

“Our 3 yrs old + Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SUV with barely over 30,000 miles on it had 2 safety issues within 2 months of each other! First was the driver's side mirror- it was rattling, feeling like it might fall off! Seems common issue, perhaps due to cheap plastic parts inside. We had it fixed- Toyota Brand Engagement Center gave a 'Goodwill' gesture to cover us replacing it at Dealership, though it should never have happened on such a newer vehicle in the first place! Then not even 2 months later, a Warning flashed- Pre Collision System Malfunction! …”

“The Cruise Control has issues. On 3 long rides so far, I have experienced that it suddenly loses speed and gives the message radar ready now. Furtunately i was maintaining very safe driving distance with other cars on the highway, which has helped me accelerate in time to continue driving and avoid collision. I dont know of any pattern which triggers this. This could lead to a serious problem if it fails in a tricky spot on highway. I am afraid to use it as its not 100 percent reliable.”
