I was stopped at a red light at an intersection, when a car pulled up next to me, and the driver rolled down the window to tell me my vehicle was on fire. I got out of my vehicle while the driver of the other car called 911. Brookline Police & Fire came, firefighters extinguished the fire, and one of the emergency services responders had a wrecker come & take the car away. The car was towed to Watertown, then collected by Safety Insurance, which got a repair estimate of $95,000. The car was deemed a total loss and is in the possession of the insurance company. When the vehicle caught on fire, it had 3,627.4 miles on it. I did not see any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the fire. My safety and the safety of others was at risk due to the sudden and unexplained fire.

Main infotainment display doesn't switch to night/dark screen even though the settings is set to automatic mode. As a result the display is extremely bright especially in dark and rural areas blinding the driver. It caused me to hit a curb and blow a tire. I went to a Toyota dealer 3 times but they didn't not fix it. This occured on August 13 2024 at around 9:30 PM. I filled a complaint with TOYOTA but every time I called they promise they will address the issue but it's now 2 months and they have not done anything. I am not sure what to do next but the display remains an issue .

I have owned vehicle for 3 months. Noticed loud banging sound whenever brakes are applied at low speeds, on rough bumps/rough road. At times banging is loud enough to sound like vehicle hit something. No issues with braking currently. Not sure if noise is from ABS but sound is coming from front and back. Toyota inspected vehicle and said sound is the ABS activating..."totally normal for newer hybrids and no fix at this time...test drove other 2024 Rav4 Primes and all had same noise". TAS#242180433. No accident/incident to report at this time, however noise is loud enough to cause uneasiness while driving.

Panoramic sunroof shattered while my wife was driving down the freeway. No object struck the sunroof but while she was driving it sounded like a shotgun went off and the panoramic roof was shattered.
