 Description of the problemMy 2007 toyota rav 4 experienced some heavy knocking on friday nov. 29th. I took it into kost tire and muffler in clark summit, pa to have then take a quick look at it. They said the engine was full of oil at the time. I drove it approximately 8. 5 miles after leaving kost before deciding to have it towed to the toyota dealership in scranton on sunday. On monday morning toyota said the car arrived with no oil. How could this be? There was no oil in the kost parking lot, in my driveway or on the tow truck bed ( can be verified by all sources). If the car were to have spilt a full engine of oil there would have been some kind of evidence(burning smell, sight of lost oil, car smoking -but there was nothing). Toyota has denied the warranty claim due to what they say is lack of engine lubrication. This is absolutely bogus. After reading some online blog i have seen a number of other customers who own 2007 rav4's who have had the same exact problem.

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
