I have owned this rav 4 hybrid for 4 months. I have driven only 2500 miles so far. I live in new england area. Rav4 is made in Canada. Twice in the last 3 months I have had a dead battery after leaving parked for 2-4 days. Both times need assistance from a battery charger. Hybrid battery shows over half charged. The 12 volt battery seems to be the issue. There are no aftermarket accessories. Smartphone app notifies me if there is an issue when parked. This issue is not isolated. Many complaints on Rav4 forums.

I purchased a new 2020 Rav4 xle in December 2020, it is not even 3 months old. I parked my Rav4 in my driveway after getting home from work. The following morning my car had a dead battery. I had the battery jumped by Toyota roadside service. The car started up, and I was told to let the engine run for about 45 minutes so the battery could charge. There's nothing I could have left turned on the evening before that would have run the battery down. If you leave a light on, or a door ajar the lights go out after 20 minutes. This was not the case. I did an internet search on Toyota Rav4 battery problems and found that this is a common issue.
