| Description of the problem | 2017 toyota rav 4 has lane departure warning, audible sound. It is to muted to hear, even if the radio is off. Second rav 4. My 2015 rav4 lane departure was loud. Toyota states that they can't increase the volume. This to me, is a safety defect that needs to be corrected. No recourse was offered by toyota on my leased vehicle. Bottom line, if i accidentally cross over a white line i get a low almost muted sound, which if i have the radio on i can not hear. Toyota needs to go back to the technology that they used for this on the 2015 model, to make it actually work! |
