2019 Toyota RAV4 complaints

THE REPORTED GAS TANK SIZE OF MY 2019 RAV4 LIMITED PURCHASED IN AUGUST 2019 IS RATED FOR 14.5 GALLONS. ON EACH OCCASION OF LOW FUEL, WARNING OR LESS THAN 50 MILES BEFORE EMPTY NOTICE, EACH FILL UP HAS RESULTED IN TEN GALLONS OR LESS. 13 SEP - 528.6 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 9.485 GALS RANGE 534. MPG = 55.7 25 SEP - 418.7 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 10.185 GALS RANGE 579. MPG = 41 7 OCT - 460.8 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 10.343 GALS RANGE 585. MPG = 44 18 OCT - 430 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 10.058 GALS RANGE 577. MPG = 42.7 28 OCT - 423.5 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 9.619 GALS RANGE 560. MPG = 44 7 NOV - 420.5 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 10.071 GALS RANGE 545. MPG = 41.7 16 NOV - 309.3 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 7.808 GALLONS RANGE 539. MPG = 39.6 25 NOV ' 382.7 MILES DRIVEN FILL UP WAS 10.685 GALLONS RANGE 568. MPG = 35.8 THE TANK SIZE AS INDICATED DOES NOT EQUATE TO THE NEED TO REFILL TO CAPACITY OF 14.5 GALLONS. WHERE OR WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE 4.5 GALLONS OF TANK FUEL THAT WE SEEM TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCESS?

TWO WEEKS AGO THE CAR CAME ON WITH AN ERROR MESSAGE STATING THE HYBRID SYSTEM HAD FAILED. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED A RELAY VALVE AND SAID THEY HAD BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM IN COLD WEATHER WITH OTHER RAV4 HYBRIDS. NOW TODAY, I WENT TO START THE CAR AND IT WAS LISTING ABOUT 6 ERROR MESSAGES, EVERYTHING FROM THE BRAKE POWER BEING LOW, ENGINE FAILURE, ETC. THE CAR WOULDN'T START AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP.

WHEN REFUELING, THE FUEL TANK NEVER REACHES FULL CAPACITY. FUEL PUMP ALWAYS SHUTS OFF AT ABOUT 3/4 TANK. FUEL TANK ADVERTISED TO HOLD 14.5 GALLONS BUT DOES NO FILL UP PASSED 10 TO 11 GALLONS.

I PURCHASED THE NEW 2019 RAV4 HYBRID ON 11/29/2019 AT PRIME MOTORS IN SACO, MAINE. IT CURRENTLY HAS 725 MILES ON IT. WHEN I ATTEMPT TO FILL IT IT WON'T FILL ALL THE WAY. IT'S ADVERTISED TO HAVE A 14.5 GALLON TANK BUT ONLY HOLDS ABOUT 10 GALLONS. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME TO KEEP PUMPING AFTER THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS IS VERY BAD ADVICE AS IT COULD OVERFLOW AND CAUSE A FIRE.

MY CAR HAS A 14.5 GALLON TANK. I HAVE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO PUT 8-9 GALLONS MAX INTO MY CAR. THE PUMP SHUTS OFF/READS AS FULL. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET 500+ MILES IN MY HYBRID WITH A 14.5 GALLON TANK. I AVERAGE 380 MP FILL UP. I PAID BIG MONEY FOR THIS CAR AND WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO FIX THE FUEL TANK PROBLEM.

THE GAS TANK WILL NOT FILL UP. IF IT IS DEAD EMPTY, THE MOST WE CAN GET THE TANK TO EXCEPT IS 10 GALLONS. THE VEHICLE IS SUPPOSE TO EXCEPT 14.5 GALLONS. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, WE ARE HAVING TO FILL THE TANK UP MORE OFTEN. THE VEHICLE SPECS STATE IT SHOULD GET 507 MILES PER TANK AND WE GET AROUND 400 MILES PER TANK.

I BOUGHT MY NEW 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID XSE AND TOOK POSSESSION ON JANUARY 3 2020. SINCE THEN, I HAVE REFULED MULTIPLE TIMES AND NOTICED IT WOULD NOT TAKE MORE THAN 9-10 GALLONS OF GAS FROM EMPTY. I FOUND MYSELF REFUELING MORE TIMES THAN MY PREVIOUS VEHICLES. WHEN RESEARCHING PRIOR TO PURCHASE, THE VEHICLE SAYS IT HAS A FUEL CAPACITY OF 14.5 GALLONS AND 580 MILES PER TANK. I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO GET MORE THAN 9-10 GALLONS AND IT HAS ALWAYS SHOWN GAS RANGE IN THE 400 MILES PER TANK. IT HAS NEVER GIVEN ME ANYWHERE CLOSE TO 580 MILES PER TANK. I TOOK IT TODAY TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER CALLING TOYOTA ON JANUARY 30TH AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT ALL CARS HAVE A 4 GALLON RESERVE TANK. THIS WAS THEIR RESPONSE TO THE PROBLEM ALTHOUGH I AM SURE NOBODY WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT HOW MANY GALLONS A CAR HAS IN RESERVE AFTER THE REFUEL LIGHT IS ON FOR OBVIOUS SAFETY REASONS. WHEN I REFULED ALL MY PREVIOUS CARS, THE CAPACITY WAS AT LEAST WHAT IT SAID ON THE MANUAL OR MORE. IT HAS NEVER BEEN A DIFFERENCE OF OVER 38% FROM WHAT THE MANUAL SAYS TO WHAT THIS VEHICLE CAN ACTUALLY TAKE WHEN REFUELING FROM EMPTY WITH THE REFUELING WARNING ON AND THE REFUELING LIGHT ON. IT IS DANGEROUS TO TRY AND FOLLOW TOYOTA'S OFFICIAL FUEL CAPACITY AND RANGE FOR THIS VEHICLE. IF YOU FOLLOW THE OFFICIAL RANGE STATED BY TOYOTA IN THE MANUAL AND VEHICLE INFORMATION, DRIVERS CAN RUN OUT OF GAS THINKING THE CAR HAS ACTUALLY 14.5 GALLONS INSTEAD OF 9-10 AND A RANGE OF 580 MILES INSTEAD OF THE ACTUAL 400 MILE RANGE. *LN*J

ONE OF THE SPEAKERS OF THE NEW VEHICLE DELIVERED ON JANUARY 3, 2020 WAS NOT WORKING. THE DEALERSHIP ORDERED A NEW SPEAKER ON JANUARY 13 AND AS OF TODAY, FEBRUARY 6TH, THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE SPEAKER TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID THE MANUFACTURER WHICH IS JBL MAY NOT HAVE THE SPEAKER AVAILABLE OR IT MAY BE ON BACKORDER.

VEHICLE DOES NOT FUNCTION AS ADVERTISED, ECM APPEARS TO CHANGE SHIFTING, HYBRID, AND GASOLINE USAGE AT LOWER TEMPS. PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS WITH ANY VISIBILITY REDUCTION, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SUDDENLY BRAKE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR TO NOT BRAKE AT ALL WITH RADAR CRUISE ACTIVE. ALSO HAVE SAME ISSUE AS OTHERS WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO FILL TANK MORE THAN 10 GALLONS OF 14. MILEAGE IS AS LOW AS 24 MPG FOR A WHOLE TANK, DRIVING VERY CONSERVATIVELY.

SINCE PURCHASING 2019 RAV4 HYBRID XLE IN APRIL 2019, FUEL TANK DOES NOT FILL TO CAPACITY. FUEL PUMP (REGARDLESS OF WHICH GAS STATION I AM AT) SHUTS OFF SEVERAL GALLONS SHORT OF FILLING THE GAS TANK AND THE FUEL INDICATOR ON THE DASHBOARD INDICATES APPROXIMATELY 3/4 FULL. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FUELED. UNABLE TO ATTAIN FUEL RANGE FOR THE VEHICLE DUE TO FUEL TANK UNABLE TO BE FILLED TO CAPACITY UNLESS I FORCE EXTRA GAS IN THE CAR BY CONSISTENTLY TRYING TO "TOP OFF" TO FILL WITH MORE GAS (AS THERE IS STILL EXTRA CAPACITY UPON THE PUMP CLICKING OFF AT FIRST). CONTACTED TOYOTA ABOUT THE ISSUE IN JULY 2019 AND DECEMBER 2019 BUT NO RESOLUTION OR EXPLANATION WAS PROVIDED ON WHY THIS ISSUE IS OCCURRING.

I PURCHASED CAR SEPT 2019, SINCE PURCHASING I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FILL MY GAS TANK TO FULL CAPACITY. I ONLY FILL UP 9 GALLONS BEFORE IT KICKS OFF, MY RANGE HAS NEVER BEEN MORE THAN 450 MILES WHEN I WAS TOLD 550 MILES BEFORE FILL UP. THIS APPARENTLY WAS A PROBLEM BEFORE I PURCHASED BY CAR BUT WAS NOT DISCLOSED AT TIME OF PURCHASE. REPORTED TO DEALERSHIP AND JUST KEEP GETTING TOLD WAITING ON A FIX FROM TOYOTA.

TOYOTA ADVERTISED THE 2019 RAV 4 HYBRID AS HAVING A 14.5 GALLON GAS TANK WITH A DRIVING RANGE OF APX. 580 MILES PER TANK. THE TANK ONLY ACCEPTS 10.5 GALLONS AND SHOWS AS FULL AND ONLY HAS A DRIVING RANGE OF 380 TO 420 MILES PER TANK. THE DRIVING RANGE IS ONE OF THE REASONS I PURCHASED THIS CAR OVER ITS COMPETITION.

2019 RAV4 HYBRID XLE. CAR FUEL TANK DOES NOT FILL UP COMPLETELY TO THE ADVERTISED 14.5 GALLONS. ONLY ABLE TO GET ABOUT 10/11 GALLONS IN THE TANK EVEN WHEN THE LOW FUEL INDICATOR IS ON. ADDITIONALLY WHEN FILLING THE TANK WITH FUEL, WHEN THE PUMP AUTO TURNS OFF BECAUSE THE TANK IS "FULL" THE FUEL LEVER INDICATOR NEEDLE IS NO EVEN CLOSE TO THE "F" MARK. FALSE ADVERTISING BY TOYOTA AND FAILURE TO APPROPRIATELY ADDRESS THE KNOWN PROBLEM.

FUEL SYSTEM DOES NOT HOLD THE AMOUNT ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURES SPECIFICATIONS. THIS APPEARS TO CAUSE THE GAS GAUGE TO SHOW INCORRECT, WHICH COULD LEAD TO RUNNING OUT OF GAS. DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THAT THIS WAS A TOYOTA ISSUE.

TOYOTA HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN T-SB-0107-19 TITLED "HESITATION ON ACCELERATION FROM A SLOW OR ROLLING STOP". IT CALLS FOR REPROGRAMMING OF THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE BY A TOYOTA DEALER. IT GOES ON TO SAY THAT TOYOTA IS NOT NOTIFYING RAV4 OWNERS OF THIS FIX, YOU HAVE TO GO TO THE DEALER AND TELL THEM YOU ARE HAVING A PROBLEM.

TOYOTA PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION DOES NOT APPEAR TO WORK AS ADVERTISED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO THE PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM NOT SENDING A WARNING AS IT SHOULD. DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE WOULD MOST LIKE CAUSE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE IF THEY ATTEMPTED TO TEST THE SYSTEM; THE THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP AS IT SHOULD, THEY WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE THEY CAUSED. I ALSO CONTACTED TOYOTA DIRECTLY HOW SAID THEY COULD NOT COMMENT AND I NEED TO REFER TO THE TOYOTA DOCUMENTATION WHICH I EXPLAINED SHOW THE VEHICLE SENDING WARNINGS AND STOPPING WELL BEFORE MY VEHICLE DOES. THE DEALERSHIP DID CONFIRM THE SENSITIVITY WAS TURNED ALL THE WAY UP, THEY COULD NOT EXPLAIN WHY IT WAS NOT WORKING, BUT SAID "THE CAR IS SMARTER THEN PEOPLE SO DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT"

2019 RAV4 HYBRID WILL NOT FILL COMPLETELY WHEN THE LOW FUEL WARNING SYSTEM ACTIVATES. THE 14. 5 GALLON TANK WILL ONLY TAKE 9.5 TO 9.7 GALLONS LEAVING ABOUT 5 GALLONS IN THE TANK. I AM NOT CERTAIN IF I CAN DRIVE FURTHER USING THE 5 GALLONS OR WOULD BE LEFT SITTING AND "RUN OUT OF FUEL." OTHER 2019 RAV4 HYBRID OWNERS ARE REPORTING A SIMILAR PROBLEM. SO FAR TOYOTA HAS MADE NO ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE FIRST ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TANK. THE RAV4 CURRENTLY HAS ABOUT 8500 MILES. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL.

WHEN FUELING MY RAV4 HYBRID I AM NOT ABLE TO COMPLETELY FILL THE TANK.

I CANNOT FILL THE FUEL TANK TO IT'S CAPACITY. FUEL PUMP WILL SHUT OFF PREMATURELY AT ABOUT 3/4 FULL. THAT SAID, RANGE IS NOWHERE NEAR AS ADVERTISED.

UNABLE TO REFUEL MORE THAN 10 GALLONS OF FUEL FROM EMPTY FOR A GAS TANK THAT TAKES 14.5 GALLONS.

WE PURCHASED OUR 2019 RAV4 LIMITED IN LATE DEC 2019 (27TH) AND HAVE EXPERIENCED A REPEATED ISSUE WITH THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM (ENGINE 3.0 PREMIUM JBL). WHILE OPERATING THE CAR, THE RADIO WILL SHUT OFF, REBOOT, LOCK UP, DROP CALLS, ETC. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER ONCE AFTER 3 DAYS AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. WE WILL BE BRINGING THE CAR BACK FOR A SECOND TIME IN 2 MONTHS OF OWNING... TOYOTA HAS NO IDEA WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.

THE VEHICLE TURNS ON THE RED BREAK LIGHT MAL FUNCTION WITHOUT PUSHING THE BREAK PEDAL IN CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY. BESIDES THAT THE PEDAL MAKES A LOT NOICE WHEN IS PUSHED AND GOES VERY LOW METAL TO METAL.

THE GAS TANK WILL NOT FILL TO THE FULL CAPACITY AND GAUGE IS INACCURATE. THE FUEL TANK SIZE IS 14 GALLONS BUT I DISCOVERED AFTER OWNING THE CAR FOR A MONTH THAT THE TANK WILL NOT FILL COMPLETELY IN FACT IT ONLY FILLS TO 10 GALLONS MEANING THE STATED VEHICLE RANGE IS FALSE ADVERTISING. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND OPENED A CASE BUT RECEIVE NO UPDATE OR FEEDBACK.

ONCE THE CAR IS WARMED UP (30 MINUTES OF DRIVING), THE ENGINE MAKES A VERY STRANGE "MOO-ING" SOUND WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEED, SLOWING DOWN OR ACCELERATING FROM A LOW SPEED. THIS STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT THREE MONTHS AFTER I GOT THE VEHICLE (PURCHASED NEW). IT DOESN'T SEEM TO AFFECT THE DRIVING BUT IT IS A DISTURBING SOUND & I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S COMING FROM.

MY BRAND NEW 2019 RAV4 HYBRID XLE HAS A FUEL TANK THAT IS 14.5 GALLONS, BUT WILL NOT FILL ABOVE 9 TO 11 GALLONS AT ANY TIME. IN SHORT, MY FUEL TANK DOES NOT FILL ALL THE WAY AND I AM THEREFORE SHORT ON OVERALL CAR RANGE, FROM 580MILES TO ABOUT 360-390 MILES PER TANK. I HAVE MADE AN ONLINE COMPLAINT TO ARDMORE TOYOTA OF PA WITH NO RESPONSE. I HAVE ROUGHLY 6,000 MILES ON MY CAR, BUT HAVE NOTICED THIS IS AS LOW AS 400 MILES IN THE ODOMETER.

FUEL TANK WILL NOT FILL TO FULL (14.5 GAL) CAPACITY. FUEL TANK WILL ONLY ACCEPT 10.5 GALS.

MY 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID GAS TANK WILL NOT ACCEPT OVER 9.5 GALLONS AT ANY TIME. EVEN WHEN I HAVE ONLY 50 MILES UNTIL GAS TANK EMPTY SHOWING ON DASHBOARD. IT'S A 14.5 GALLON TANK SO THIS IS A PROBLEM.

THE FUEL TANK WAS AT MAXIMUM CAPACITY WHEN PICKED UP FROM THE DEALER WITH AN ESTIMATED RANGE OF ~550 MILES. SINCE DRIVING AWAY FROM THE DEALER, I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO ADD MORE THAN 9-10 GALLONS INTO THE "14.5" GALLON TANK, EVEN WELL AFTER THE "LOW FUEL" LIGHT HAS COME ON. EVEN WITH EXTRA TOPPING OFF AND THE NEEDLE READS AS CLOSE TO FULL AS I CAN GET IT, NOW THE ESTIMATED RANGE TENDS TO BE ~350-370 MILES. I HAVE FILLED UP THE TANK ABOUT 10 TIMES NOW AND THIS OUTCOME IS CONSISTENT.

NEW 2019 RAV4 HYBRID XLE WITH LESS THAN 2,500 MILES WILL NOT FILL UP ALL THE WAY WHEN FILLING WITH GAS. AUTOSTOPS AT 3/4 TANK AND CANNOT SAFELY FILL UP THE REST OF THE WAY.

RAV4 2019 HYBRID WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO FILL IT PAST APPROXIMATELY 10 GALLONS. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED THEY WERE AWARE OF SAID ISSUE AND THAT TOYOTA CURRENTLY DOESN'T NOT HAVE A FIX OR ACTIVE RECALL FOR THE ISSUE. WHEN I SEARCHED INDEPENDENTLY I NOTICED THAT MANY PEOPLE SIGHT THIS SAME ISSUE.

FUEL TANK CAPACITY 14.5 GALLONS CAN ONLY BE FILLED TO 9.5 GALLONS WITHOUT AGGRESSIVE "TOPPING OFF". IN ORDER TO AVOID POSSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL HARM AND VEHICLE EMISSION CONTROL DAMAGE, TOPPING OFF NOT USED. HOWEVER, THIS LEAVES THE VEHICLE 5 GALLONS SHORT OF A FULL TANK (ABOUT 200 MILE RANGE LOSS)

THE FUEL TANK DOES NOT FILL UP TO CAPACITY. I AM ONLY ABLE TO FILL ~8 GALLONS IN A TANK WHICH HAS A 14.5 GALLON CAPACITY. ALSO, WHEN THE LOW FUEL INDICATOR COMES ON, "MILES TO EMPTY" READS ONLY ABOUT ~30 MILES WHICH IS INCORRECT IN MY OPINION. THERE MUST BE A CALIBRATION ISSUE. I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE STATION AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO FIX FROM TOYOTA. THE RECENT RECALL AFFECTING 700,000 CARS WITH A FUEL PUMP ISSUE DOES NOT INCLUDE MY CAR (SEARCHED BY VIN) OR ANY RAV4 HYBRIDS FOR THAT MATTER. HOW LONG IS ONE SUPPOSED TO WAIT BEFORE HEARING BACK FROM THE MANUFACTURER? I HAVE ATTACHED THE SERVICE APPOINTMENT CONFIRMATION.

MY 2019 RAV4 XSE, PURCHASED IN MAY 2019, GAS TANK REFUELING ALWAYS AUTOMATICALLY STOPS PREMATURELY AT FUEL GAUGE 1/3 TO 3/4 FULL. THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH EVERY REFUELING SINCE THE FIRST FUELING WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW. THE PROBLEM REDUCES THE EFFECTIVE RANGE ON ONE TANK OF NORMALLY DISPENSED GAS BY 100 - 200 MILES. FILLING VERY VERY SLOWLY TO COAX THE TANK TO ACCEPT A PROPERLY FULL FILL CAN CAUSE NO AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF OF THE GAS PUMP TO OCCUR, WHICH CAN RESULT IN EXCESSIVE FUMES OR OVERFILLING.

THIS VEHICLE CANNOT BE FILLED WITH THE AMOUNT OF GAS ADVERTISED. IT HAS A 14.5 GALLON FUEL TANK AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO PUT MORE THAN 10 GALLONS IN IT EVEN WHEN THE LOW FUEL INDICATOR IS ON. THIS LEADS TO DANGEROUS AND ENVIRONMENTALLY UNSAFE TRICLKLE-FILLING. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PUCHASED ~6 MONTHS AGO.

WHEN THE TANK REGISTERS EMPTY, IT ONLY FILLS ABOUT 9/10 GALLONS BEFORE THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AND I DON'T GET THE FULL MILEAGE RANGE. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO TOYOTA DEALER AND HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE NEW '19. WHEN I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE UP THE GAS DISPLAY NEEDLE REGISTER PAST 'F' (A NORMAL SIGNAL ON MOST CARS) AND THE CAR'S RANGE REGISTERED 548 MILES TO EMPTY. THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I EVER SAY THESE HIGH DISPLAYS NUMBERS. AT MY FIRST FILL UP, THE TANK DISPLAYED 3/4 FULL AT SHUTOFF AND RANGER AT 430ISH. THE SUBSEQUENT FUEL FILLS CONTINUED NEAR THESE LOW NUMBER. I CONTACTED THE DEALER ABOUT MY OBSERVATION AND I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS JUST HOW HYBRIDS WORK. I THEN CONTACTED TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE AND BEGAN A CASE FILE. AFTER SEVEN MONTHS OF WORKING WITH THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN SALEM OREGON AND TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT, THEY FINALLY AGREED TO TESTED MY VEHICLE FOR THE FUELING PROBLEM. AT THAT POINT, THE DEALERSHIP FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM. AT THAT POINT, I BEGAN THE PROCESS OF A BUYBACK FOR MY CAR WITH TOYOTA. WITHIN TWO DAYS, I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE GOING TO SWITCH OUT MY GAS TANK FOR A NEW GAS TANK THAT WAS MADE OVERSEAS. I WAS TOLD THAT WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. AFTER RECEIVING MY NEW GAS TANK, THE NEW TANK STARTED TO EXHIBIT THE SAME DIFFICULTIES AS THE LAST TANK. I'M NOW BACK AT SQUARE ONE. I BEGAN COLLECTING DATA AGAIN ABOUT THE FUELING PROBLEM. THIS TIME, THE TANK WAS FEELING A BIT HIGHER T

FUEL TANK CAPACITY NOT AS ADVERTISED (14.5 GALLONS). MAXIMUM INPUT IS 9-10 GALLONS AFTER FUEL LIGHT COMES ON. VEHICLE IS AT 16,000 MILES. CAPACITY PROBLEM HAS BEEN CONSISTENT FOR LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

QWNER OF A 2019 RAV 4 HYBRID, XSE. I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE EARLY AUGUST 2019. AND HAVE FELT EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED WITH BEING UNABLE TO 'FILL' THE GAS TANK TO IT'S CAPACITY. IT'S EXASPERATING THAT WITH A 14 GALLON TANK, AT FILL UP IT WILL ACCEPT ONLY 9-9.5 GALLONS OF FUEL AT MOST BEFORE THE FUEL FILL SENSOR WILL NOT ACCEPT FURTHER REFUELING. WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR IN AUGUST, DRIVING THE CAR OFF THE LOT, THE ESTIMATED MILEAGE ON A FULL TANK WAS 513 MILES. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FILL THE TANK TO GET THAT ESTIMATION OF MILEAGE SINCE. THE BEST I'VE BEEN ABLE TO GET IS 443, THE TANK WILL NOT ACCEPT THE FUEL. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE I EXPECTED TO AVG. 40-42 MILES/GAL, I GET APPROXIMATELY 34-35 MPG. THIS TOO IS ALSO RIDICULOUS. I DRIVE THE CAR IN ECONO MODE TO FURTHER ENHANCE BETTER MILEAGE. I WILL REPORT TO TOYOTA...I USE THE CAR MAINLY FOR HIGHWAY DRIVING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO PASS A FEW GAS STATIONS, IS NOT WHY I BOUGHT THIS CAR! I FEEL THAT THE ESTIMATED HEIGHT MPG WAS GROSSLY OVERSTATED BY TOYOTA.

PURCHASED 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 THIS NOVEMBER AND I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE GAS TANK. IT ONLY FILL 80% OF THE TANK NOT COMPLETELY FULL. WHEN TRYING TO FILL MANUALLY TO THE FULL GAUGE THE GAS OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS WHICH CREATES GAS SPILL ON THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND FLOOR. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO ADDRESS ASAP.

MY 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID XLE (PURCHASED IN CA) WILL NOT ALLOW A FULL FUEL TANK FILLUP. ONCE THE 'EMPTY' WARNING COMES ON, THE 14.5 GALLON TANK WILL ONLY ACCEPT ABOUT 9 TO 10 GALLONS BEFORE SHUTTING OFF. EVEN IF YOU SLOWLY 'TRICKLE' THE GAS IN, IT SHUTS OFF BEFORE 11 GALLONS ARE IN. CAR IS NOT PROVIDING ANYWHERE NEAR THE AVERAGE ESTIMATED DRIVING RANGE OF APPROXIMATELY 560 MILES, AS ADVERTISED BY TOYOTA. THIS REDUCES CREDIBILITY OF THE TOYOTA FUEL STATUS WARNING, MAKING IT MORE LIKELY DRIVERS MAY RUN OUT OF FUEL ON BUSY FREEWAY OR REMOTE HIGHWAY. I HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND TO TOYOTA NATIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND RECEIVED A CASE #.

OUR RAV4 HYBRID WILL RARELY FILL MORE THAN 9-10 GALLONS IN THE TANK. WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTS AFTER A NEW TANK HAS BEEN FILLED THE NEEDLE WILL NOT BE ALL THE WAY AT FULL. ONE OF THE REASONS I WAS SOLD ON THE VEHICLE WAS IT'S RANGE, BUT THIS TANK ISSUE MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE.

GAS TANK IS SUPPOSEDLY 14 GALLONS BUT VEHICLE WILL NOT TAKE MORE THAN 9 GALLONS.

BOUGHT NEW FROM DEALER IN 10/19. 14.5 GAL FUEL TANK WILL NOT ACCEPT MORE THAN 9.8 GALLONS EVEN AFTER ~20 MILES AFTER IT SHOWS 0 MILES OF RANGE. THIS LEAVES 3-4 GALLONS (>120 MILES OF RANGE) UNAVAILABLE!! NOT AS ADVERTISED. TOYOTA IS AWARE, BUT DOING NOTHING!!!

COULD NOT FILL THE GAS TANK FULLY. IT TAKES ONLY 9.834 GAL OF FUEL INSTEAD OF 14.5 GAL. THIS IS WIDELY REPORTED PROBLEM, BUT TOYOTA SEEMS NOT TO ISSUE ANY RECALL.

I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FILL THE GAS TANK FULL FOR THE ENTIRE DURATION OF OWNERSHIP. THE PUMP CUTS OFF ABOUT 3 GALLONS SHORT. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND TOPPING UP DOESN'T HELP EITHER. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO HELP SAYING TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY SOLUTION FOR IT.

PURCHASED A NEW 2019 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID AWD XLE ON 10/24/19. FUEL CAPACITY APPEARS TO BE ABOUT 11 GALLONS, AS OPPOSED TO THE 14.5 GALLONS ADVERTISED. I HAVE RUN THE CAR DOWN TO BELOW 10MILES OF RANGE MULTIPLE TIMES AND GET THE SAME RESULT. THIS 25% UNDERSTATEMENT OF FUEL CAPACITY TRANSLATES INTO ROUGHLY 100 MILES LESS OF TOTAL RANGE THAN THE ADVERTISED 537-595 MILES OF RANGE. SEE ATTACHED PICS.

TANK WAS ADVERTISED AS HAVING A CAPACITY FOR 14.5 GALLONS. I AM NOT ABLE TO FULLY FILL THE TANK, ONLY PUTTING IN 9 TO 10 GALLONS MAXIMUM. TOYOTA HAS STATED THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THERE IS NO FIX. I AM UNABLE TO GET THE MILEAGE RANGE I WAS PROMISED UPON PURCHASE.

THE GAS TANK DOES NOT FILL ALL THE WAY, SO I HAVE HAVING TO GO BACK AND PUMP MORE GAS INTO THE TANK. THIS SOMETIMES CAN LEAD TO OVERFLOW AND THE GAS LEAKING TO THE GROUND AND CAN BE HAZARDS.

FUEL TANK ONLY HOLDS 10 GALLONS, TANK SHOULD HOLD 14 GALLONS. REDUCES DRIVING RANGE AND TIME TO FUEL UP - WHICH WAS THE MAIN REASON WE BOUGHT THIS CAR. WHEN DROVE CAR OFF DEALERSHIP LOT, DRIVING RANGE WAS 440 - DROVE 6 HOURS WITHOUT HAVING TO FILL UP. DRIVING RANGE WAS NEVER MORE THAN 340 AFTER THAT AND HAD TO FUEL UP ABOUT EVERY 3 HOURS. REPORTED TO TOYOTA CORPORATE.

THE GAS TANK IS QUOTED AS HAVING 14.5 GALLON CAPACITY AND I AM ONLY TO FILL UP 10 GALLONS.

UNABLE TO COMPLETELY FILL THE FUEL TANK. STOPS ABUT 4 GALLONS SHORT. HAPPENS ON EVERY FILL. I HAVE TO TRICKLE FILL IT TO GET CLOSE TO A FULL TANK. HAPPENS AT EACH FILL UP
