Description of the problem | Late model toyota rav4's from my research seem to have an ongoing problem with the evap charcoal canister requiring replacement (see nhtsb 10033407). My car (although not a 2009) has the same exact obd diagnostic codes listed in the bulletin above yet 2011 rav4's haven't been listed with this problem. Toyota warrants them for 3 years, 36k miles but most seem to fail just after the warranty ends. My 2011 rav4, 4 cyl. With 51k miles experienced this problem 19 months (and 46k miles) after manufacture (9/10) and toyota has refused to correct the problem. The solution is a $1000+ repair. All other emissions equipment on my car is warranted for up to 80k miles or 8 yrs and is in good working order. |
