Found fuel leaks on my 2002 Toyota truck Rav4. My car was towed in to Toyota dealer. They fixed it and stated "secure the fitting" on the invoice. They charged me $ $62.50. I always sent to my car to the dealers for maintenance. II do not perform any mechanical maintenance on my car.

November 17, 2006 - after being parked in my driveway for approximately 30 minutes the engine caught on fire. The Rav4 engine compartment and entire interior was demolished, tires exploded, glass exploded over at least a 20 foot radius. Two engine trucks and 10 responders later the fire was out. 63,000 miles, no prior problems, 50K maintenance completed by dealer Jan 2006. VIN has zeros and letter O which are indistinguishable. Try both.

When the brake was applied, the vehicle surged foward due to fuel throttle leakage. Dealer notified.
