| Description of the problem | Master window power switch caught a fire in august 2011. It had been giving me problems since july 2009. Toyota would not fix it because to many miles. How does a power window stop working on a 2007 rav4 when it only two years old. Faulty master power switch. It had a burn hole the size of a dime. I'm glad i took a picture of it. The first time i saw smoke was june 2011. I was so afraid to drive the fire trap i traded it in for a new car. The rav4 was paid off now i have a car loan at 19. 9%. *kb |
