2002 Toyota RAV4 L review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission started to jerk on the interstate. Had a big rig honking at me because my RAV4 would not change into gear.
Problem: ECU. I called TOYOTA -- Claim they have never heard of this problem. Took it to Toyota -- COST $1,800 to repair, and if the problem does not go away, the transmission will have to be repaired - COST $4,000.00.
My opinion: Toyota developed a way to generate more revenue for their company. You don't buy a car within 5 years, it's OK...You'll be back... Will never buy Toyota again.
