FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL TANK DOES NOT FILL TO CORRECT CAPACITY. WHENEVER I FILL MY TANK, EVEN WHEN THE LOW FUEL LIGHT IS ON, I AM ONLY ABLE TO FILL APPROXIMATELY 9 GALLONS. THE ADVERTISED CAPACITY OF THE TANK IS 14.5 GALLONS. THIS IS VERIFIED BY THE RANGE AND FUEL INDICATOR ON MY DASHBOARD. THE FUEL TANK STOPS FILLING AT ABOUT 3/4-7/8 OF A TANK AND THEN RANGE INDICATED BETWEEN 380-400 MILES. TOYOTA ADVERTISES A RANGE ON 580 MILES. TAKING INTO ACCOUNT MY CURRENT MPG, I SHOULD BE WITHIN ABOUT 40 MILES OF THIS NUMBER. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE GAS TANK SHOULD BE 14 GALLONS, HOWEVER I AM ONLY ABLE TO BUT IN TO THE TANK APROX 8 GALLONS. I CAN FORCE APPROX 1 MORE GALLON BY PULLING OUT THE NOZZLE ON THE FUEL PUMP. THE TRIP ESTIMATOR WILL SAY IT CAN ONLY GO HIGH 300 TO LOW 400 MILES. WHEN I BOUGHT NEW OFF THE LOT IT WAS WITH A MAX FILLED TANK AND TRIP ESTIMATOR WAS AT 500 PLUS MILES. THE GAS GAUGE NEVER SHOWS FULL AND IT DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE ACCURATE AS TO WHEN THE TANK IS LOW/EMPTY COMPARED WITH MILEAGE ESTIMATOR. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, SUSPENSION, SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER ARM
CAR LURCHED, SHOOK AND TILTED WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS. SAFETY RECALL ISSUED MAY 20, 2020 (20TB08/20TA08) SAYS FRONT LOWER ARM SUSPENSION DEFECT FOUND FOR SAME MAKE AND MODEL IN PRODUCTION PERIOD 9/25/19-10/25/19, WHICH POST DATES MY PURCHASE DATE BY SEVERAL MONTHS BUT SEEMS TO INVOLVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS BROADER THAN TOYOTA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED AND THAT TOYOTA IS BEING DANGEROUSLY DILATORY IN PROVIDING NOTICE OF THE SAFETY ISSUES THAT IT ADMITS MAKE THESE CARS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE FUEL TANK ON MY 2019 RAV4 HYBRID DOES NOT FILL UP TO CAPACITY AND ONLY ALLOWS TO BE FILLED UP TO AROUND 10 GALLONS. I HAVE TRIED SEVER DIFFERENT FUELING STATIONS, BRANDS, AND PUMP DISPENSERS BUT NONE OF THEM ALLOW TO CAR TO FILL UP TO IT'S FULL LIMIT. ESTIMATED LOSS OF RANGE IS AROUND 100 MILES PER TANK. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE FUEL TANK CAPACITY IS ABOUT 9 GALLONS WAY TOO LOWER THAN THE SPECIFICATION. THIS IS CAUSING TOO MANY TRIPS TO THE GAS STATION THAN EXPECTED. THE PURPOSE OF BUYING A HYBRID IS DEFEATED.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE GAS TANK IS ADVERTISED TO HOLD 14.5 GALLONS. WHEN I FILL UP, THE PUMP STOPS AFTER ADDING ONLY ABOUT 8 GALLONS. I CAN VERY SLOWLY ADD MORE, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS DANGEROUS. I HAVE HAD IT OVERFLOW AND SPILL WHEN I'VE TRIED THAT. THE SMALLER CAPACITY SEVERELY REDUCES THE NUMBER OF MILES BETWEEN FILLING. I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MPG. A MAIN REASON I BOUGHT THE CAR WAS FOR THE 40MPG. BUT I'VE NEVER GOTTEN THAT. I AVERAGE AROUND 28. *TR

THIS TOYOTA RAV4 ADVENTURE GROANS/SQUEAKS AFTER IT'S BEEN RUNNING FOR A WHILE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THERE IS A 1 TO 2 SECOND HESITATION AND THE STEERING SEEMS UNRESPONSIVE WHENEVER THE SOUND IS HEARD. THE LONGER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUNNING OR THE HOTTER THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE, THE MORE OFTEN THE SOUND IS HEARD. *TR
