| Description of the problem | Multiple complaints on nhtsa site (123+) of rav4 brake problems (early replacement at low mileage and brake failures at various speeds). Toyota has been ignoring the issue. Why have there been no recalls? Our brakes are going soft at 30,00 miles (4 years) and the dealer says we need front and back replacements. Other complainers noted the need for frequent and repeated replacements. |
