RAV4

  • 44,329 miles
I had to visit Toyota because my radio will turn on by itself, when I park. Even after visiting Toyota for an update, my radio will change on its own, not from the steering wheel) but on its own.so it is not fixed. Wipers will turn on then stop. There seems to be a device behind the dash that I can hear clicking on and off well after the ignition is off or while the car is idle for a bit. My climate control changes on its on even though it works fine most of the time. It is as if my car is receiving additional commands from another source. Last week, at night, I witnessed two men standing in the middle of the street, somehow activating car alarms from random cars. Just yesterday, not far from where I live a driver "lost control" and ran into two homes. The driver was thrown from the car, while the car and the house caught on fire, that was strange to hear about. If there is something that can be done for my car, please let me know what to do. Thank you.
