Description of the problem	My rav 4 is making a loud clunking noise from the rear suspension. My local shop replaced the rear shocks and the rear sway bar end links, which did not solve the clunking noise. I took it to toyota of westport in westport,ct on october 1, 2012 where they checked the vehicle and said they are unsure how to rectify the problem until toyota produces a formal recall and fix, but they do know of the problem. If the problems are stated all over the internet and toyota knows of the problem... How can it not be fixed? I am worried as my wife travels distances by highway and i do not want this to cause a crash if it can be solved. What is one to do when the dealer does not know how to fix their product? I am at a loss, but will keep my fingers crossed and hope that my car holds up until toyota figures this out.
