RAV4 4-cyl

  • 10,000 miles
With a totally dead battery you cannot unlock the rear door with the remote entry, and there is no key in the door to allow you to unlock the rear hatch door, where your jumper cables would be stored. Thus your jumper cables are not accessible for your use, unless you climb over the rear seats and manage to life the floor panel and retrieve the cables. Poor design and could be a serious safety issue under some conditions.
