| Description of the problem | 2017 toyota rav4 le issues. There is quite a lot of road noise especially during highway travel. The vehicle could be insulated better. The primary issue is with the wipers. The speed settings are not refined enough. The setting cause the wipers to either be too fast or slow depending on the amount of rain experience. Also, i have not been able to find wipers that do not cause the annoying loud stutter/rubbng noise. I have tried all the different top of the line brands with no success. Rainx, michelin, bosch, and trico. |
