| Description of the problem | I brought my rav4 for service last jan 31, 2013 at a toyota dealer here in hawaii. They told me that there is a sign of a leak on the water pump and charging me $602 just for parts. I declined for the repair. At home, i saw in the internet that this is a common problem for this vehicle. At a mileage of 55109, i don't think this should a problem. So maybe its a defective water pump. |
