RAV4

  • miles
I bought this car in 2018, I drive 4 miles per day more or less, I have only 25,486 miles and today during a regular inspection I found that my tires tread are on yellow 6/32", just the front (where I have Front Wheel Drive). Not sure how driving only in town can quickly wear a tire, by the time I pay off this car I will be with an expensive bill for change the tires. I had an used Subaru for 5 years and I never had to change the tires during 5 years, and I drove way more than Toyota, had 89,000 when the gaskets blew off. Not sure why car/tires companies make crap products to make us pay often.

Michelin latitude tour HP i-225/65r17 I am writing to you in order to let you know that I bought this used Toyota Rav4 2018 with 28,000 miles. I was told that the tires were new. One of the tires was not new and had already been fixed before, certainly not in a safe way. I just want you to know and report it to Toyota, I would have appreciated them if they had told me the truth since in that car I ride my daughters. Happy afternoon.

RAV4

  • 19,650 miles
The Toyota Rav4 was heading East on I-10 freeway near sky harbor airport Arizona. A sudden pop sound with steering problem followed... luckily it was 11pm (11/27/2018) and no cars around, and able to quickly and safely driving the Rav4 to the shoulder of freeway. Roadside assistance (pre-paid program) dispatched a technician to replace defective front passenger-side tire with spare tire.
