Description of the problem	The line departure alert / steering assist buzzer is not working or not loud enough to be heard. Occasionally when driving for hours on freeways i may get drowsy, so i bought the new rav4 and specifically chose a model with lda/sa hoping that it assists me. After driving over 1000 miles between the cities, i am completely disappointed with this feature. It supposed to alert me when the car drives over the lines with a buzzer and gentle nudge to the steering wheel. I cannot hear the buzzer and feel any action on the steering wheel. I went to the culver city toyota dealer two times in attempting to have this problem fixed. Both times i have been told that the system works as designed. During a test drive with the master technician, with radio off, at speed less 50mph, so with the minimal road noise, i could not hear the buzzer. I do clearly hear the buzzer of the parking sonar or pre-collision warning. So this is at best useless feature, at worst it is a distraction when trying to make it work at a highway.
