2020 Toyota RAV4 complaints

THE FUEL TANK DOES NOT FILL TO ITS ADVERTISED CAPACITY OF 14.5 GALLONS. I GET ONLY ABOUT 10 GALLONS UNTIL IT STOPS.

ATTEMPTED TO FILL THE FUEL TANK ON 2020 RAV4 HYBRID WHICH REFLECTED THAT IS WAS BELOW 1/4 FULL, BUT WAS ONLY ABLE TO PUT IN 7 GAL WHICH OBVIOUSLY DID NOT REFLECT A FULL TANK (14.5GAL)

I CANNOT FILL THE TANK FULL. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL GAS STATION PUMPS AND FILLING SLOWLY AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. WITH TIME AND EFFORT, I CAN GET ANOTHER 2 GALLONS IN, BUT THE RANGE IS LESS THAN ADVERTISED. THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH EVERY FILL SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I INVESTIGATED ON-LINE AND WITH MY SERVICE DEPT AND SAW OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I ALSO SAW A CLASS ACTION SUIT. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA AS WELL.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN OUR BRAND NEW 2020 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID WITH ONLY 5,000 MILES, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SUNROOF EXPLODED ABOVE US -- SHATTERING GLASS FRAGMENTS UPWARDS AND OUTWARDS. OF COURSE, SOME MINOR FRAGMENTS LANDED UPON MY WIFE AND I -- BUT FOR THE MOST PART THE GLASS SHOT UPWARDS AND AWAY. IT WAS AS THOUGH SOMEONE HAD FIRED OFF A LOUD SHOTGUN INSIDE THE CAR. AFTER REGAINING CONTROL OF THE CAR AND SEEING THE SUNROOF COMPLETELY SHATTERED I LOOKED BACK AND NOTICED THAT THERE WERE NO OVERPASSES AROUND FOR SOMEONE TO DROP A ROCK AND ONLY A HANDFUL OF OTHER VEHICLES TRAVELING TO THE RIGHT OF US GOING IN THE SAME DIRECTION. WE GOOGLED THE CLOSEST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND DROVE 5 MILES TO JOHN ELWAYS CROWN TOYOTA. THE SERVICE ADVISOR WHO LOOKED AT THE CAR JUST SHOOK HIS HEAD. WHEN ASKED IF ANYTHING LIKE THAT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE -- HE REPLIED, "NO." I THEN LEFT THE CAR WITH THE DEALERSHIP SINCE THE INCIDENT HAPPENED ON A LATE AFTERNOON SATURDAY AND RENTED A RENTAL CAR FROM THEM. THE SERVICE DEPT. FINALLY CONTACTED ME ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON TO INFORM ME THAT THE SUNROOF WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY -- AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY THEM $1,700 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A DEFINITE "QUALITY CONTROL" ISSUE OF TOYOTA'S -- AND FROM MY OWN RESEARCH HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVING THE SAME SUNROOF EXPLOSION ISSUES OCCUR. BY NO MEANS SHOULD THIS PRODUCT DESIGN FAILURE AND GLASS SAFETY ISSUE BE IGNORED OR SHOULD EVER HAPPEN. IT'S OUTRIGHT DANGEROUS. A

THE FUEL TANK ACCEPTS BETWEEN 9.5 AND 10 GALLONS TOTAL FOR A REFILL, EVEN WHEN IT HAS THE LOW FUEL LIGHT LIT. AFTER ADDING 9.5 GALLONS TO AN EMPTY TANK, THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWS FULL. THE TANK SPECS CLAIM A 14.5 GALLON TANK. THE VEHICLE ESTIMATES THE DISTANCE YOU CAN TRAVEL APPARENTLY ASSUMING A 14.5 GALLON TANK. RELYING ON THE ESTIMATED DISTANCE YOU CAN DRIVE IS NOT A GOOD IDEA, YOU WILL END UP STRANDED. THE FUEL TANK NOT ACCEPTING A FULL 14.5 GALLONS IS A PROBLEM. THE SAFETY ISSUE COMES IN WHEN THE "DISTANCE TO EMPTY" IS SIGNIFICANTLY MISREPRESENTED, BEING OFF BY AS MUCH AS 140MILES RIGHT AFTER FILLING THE TANK AND DROPPING FASTER THAN WOULD MAKE SENSE GIVEN THE PROMINENTLY REPORTED MPG VALUE ON THE SCREEN.

SINCE PURCHASING, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ALLOW FOR FULL FILLING OF GAS TANK TO 14.5 SPECIFIED GALLONS. THE REPORTED RANGE OF THE VEHICLE IS THEREBY REDUCED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE IS NOT ACHIEVING ANYWHERE NEAR ITS MFG SPECIFIED GAS MILEAGE OF 27/30/29. THE MOST THE VEHICLE CAN ACHIEVE IS 22.4 MPG.

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.

VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK WILL NOT FILL TO THE ADVERTISED CAPACITY OF 14.5 GALLONS. STOPS AT APPROXIMATELY 10 GALLONS. THIS ISSUE IS KNOWN BY THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALERSHIPS ABOUT THE MODEL YEAR AND CONTINUES INTO THE NEW. THE BUYERS ARE NOT INFORMED OF THIS BEFORE THE SALE IS MADE. WHY ARE TOYOTA AND THEIR DEALERSHIPS BEING ALLOWED TO CONTINUE THIS DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICE?

WHILE FUELING THE VEHICLE CAN ONLY PUT 10 GALLONS OF FUEL IN THE GAS TANK NO MATTER HOW EMPTY THE VEHICLE IS.

WHEN DOING MY FIRST FILL UP, MY GAS TANK WAS ONLY ABLE TO TAKE 11.19 GALLONS OUT OF THE 14.5-GALLON TANK AND THAT WAS AFTER DRIVING PAST WHEN THE REFUEL LIGHT HAD COME ON. THE RANGE OF THE TANK WAS THE PRIMARY REASON FOR PURCHASING THE RAV4 HYBRID AND UPON DOING MY RESEARCH I SEE THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR MANY RAV4 OWNERS. WITH A NEW 30 THOUSAND DOLLAR CAR HAVING THIS MUCH OF A FLUCTUATION IN ESTIMATED AND ACTUAL RANGE MEANS THAT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE OF OVER 100 MPG MISSING FROM THE RANGE. I DO NOT TRUST THE VEHICLE AND HOW IT REPORTS ITS INFORMATION AND DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO TAKE A FAMILY TRIP AS I CAN'T TELL WHAT THE TRUE RANGE OF MY VEHICLE IS. IT IS STATED THAT TOYOTA IS LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE BUT THAT THEY SENT THE NOTICE OUT TO DEALERS AND SERVICE DEPARTMENTS, THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN DISCLOSED BEFORE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE AND THIS IS NOT RIGHT AS FAR AS BUSINESS PRACTICES GO. ASIDE FROM THAT THE FACT THAT I DON'T GET TO FILL A FULL TANK THANK I PAID FOR BECAUSE OF THE SYSTEM OR DESIGN IS NOT OK. PLEASE HELP TO REMEDY THIS. I ALSO VIDEOTAPED MY FIRST TANK FILL UP WITH VIN EVIDENCE THAT THE VEHICLE IS MINE.

GAS TANK EITHER DOES NOT HOLD THE 14 GALLONS PROMISED OR DOES NOT ALLOW ALL FUEL TO BE USED. TANK ONLY ACCEPTS APPROX 9 GALLONS ON FILLUP. RANGE DISPLAYED ON DASH IS GREATLY DIMINISHED FROM PUBLISHED INFORMATION.

2020 RAV4 HYBRID XSE WILL NOT FILL TO A FULL TANK OF FUEL AFTER COUNTLESS REPEATED ATTEMPTS. THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES IT'S A 14.5 GALLON TANK AND ONCE THE LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON YOU SHOULD HAVE ABOUT 2.2 GALLONS OF RESERVE FUEL. I AM UNABLE TO GET EVEN CLOSE TO THE 12.3 GALLONS GIVE OR TAKE IT SHOULD NEED. I CAN ONLY PUMP AROUND 9 GALLONS OF FUEL. THIS LEAVES ME WITH ONLY GETTING A RANGE OF 350+ MILES TO A TANK. ALSO THIS ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED IN 2019 AND NO ONE LET ME KNOW MY 2020 WOULD BE AFFECTED BY THIS WHEN PURCHASING. TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS CLEAR BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE CHANGED MY DECISION. ALSO AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THIS ISSUE AT THE TIME.

UNABLE TO FILL FUEL TANK TO ADVERTISED CAPACITY (14.5 GALLONS). THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE. WHEN FUEL IS LOW INDICATED BY FUEL GAUGE AND DISTANCE TO EMPTY CALCULATION, NEARING EMPTY, I AM ONLY ABLE TO FILL 9.5-10.5 GALLONS MAX.

THIS IS FOR A 2020 RAV4 HYBRID, THE NTHSA SYSTEM SEEMS TO BE LUMPING THIS TOGETHER WITH THE REGULAR RAV4. THE FUEL TANK HAS ISSUES ACCEPTING FUEL UP TO THE LEVELS SPECIFIED IN THE MANUAL OR THE CALIBRATION OF THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR IS OFF. PER THE OWNERS MANUAL PROVIDED BY TOYOTA WHEN THE REFUEL LIGHT ILLUMINATES THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 2.2 GALLONS OF FUEL REMAINING. WHEN THIS LIGHT ILLUMINATES I AM ONLY ABLE TO FILL THE CAR WITH 9-10 GALLONS OF FUEL. THE TANK CAPACITY IS 14.5 GALLONS SO THE CAR IS MISSING 2.3-3.3 GALLONS OF FUEL EVERY FILL UP. THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ FULL AT THIS POINT EITHER. TO GET THE MISSING FUEL INTO THE VEHICLE YOU CAN SLOWLY "TOP OFF" UNTIL THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL HAS BEEN ADDED BUT THIS BECOMES A SAFETY CONCERN AS THE PUMPS SAFETY MECHANISMS CONSTANTLY ENGAGE MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL WHEN THE TANK IS ACTUALLY FULL AND WHEN IT WILL BEGIN SPEWING OUT THE EXTRA FUEL ON TO THE GROUND. I WATCHED THE FIRST FILL AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THIS DID NOT OCCUR. THE ISSUE SLOWLY PROGRESSED IN THE FOLLOWING FILLS AND NOW OCCURS DURING EVERY FILL.

HAS PROBLEMS FILLING UP GAS TO THE FULL TANK

I HAVE THE RAV4 LE BASE MODEL. IN THE FIRST 3 GEARS, TRANSMISSION JERKS A LOT DURING ACCELERATION, ALWAYS FEELING IT IS HAVING A HARD SHIFT. WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE PADEL PARTIALLY OR ROLLING STOP, THE CAR LURCHES, THIS IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS WHEN I MAKE TURNS, I FEEL THE CAR IS NOT STABLE. VERY DISAPPOINTED AT TOYOTA.

THE GAS TANK ON MY NEW TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID, MODEL YEAR 2020 WILL NOT EVER FILL TO CAPACITY OR ANYWHERE NEAR IT. I PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2019. THE ADVERTISED RANGE OF THE CAR WAS OVER 500 MILES PER TANK AND MY RANGE IS ONLY 375 MILES TYPICALLY. AFTER A SEARCH ONLINE I SEE THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM EVEN BEFORE I PURCHASED THE CAR, YET I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF THE DEFECT OF THE TANK BY TOYOTA THAT IT WILL NOT FILL TO ANYWHERE NEAR THE STATED 14.5 GALLONS.

CONTINUATION, LOST WEBSITE.

GAS TANK DOES NOT FILL ALL THE WAY

I PURCHASED MY CAR ON 12-21-19 WITH THE EXPLICIT SALES CLAIM THAT THE 2020 RAV4 HYBRID TANK HOLDS 14.5 GALLONS. I WAS PROMISED THAT I COULD DRIVE OVER 550 MILES ON ONE TANK OF GAS. HOWEVER, I HAVE HAD TO REFUEL MY CAR 3 TIMES ALREADY. EACH TIME WHEN MY CAR FUEL TANK EMPTY LIGHT TURNED ON, I COULD ONLY GET BETWEEN 10-10.8 GALLONS UNTIL IT'S 'FULL.' I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE ONLY 354-413 MILES ON A 'FULL' TANK OF GAS, A FAR CRY FROM THE 550 MILES PROMISED. I HAVE CONTACTED TWO DEALERSHIPS AND HAVE OPENED UP A CASE NUMBER WITH TOYOTA CORPORATION. THEY DENY EVER HAVING HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM AND DO NOT HAVE A FIX. DOING A QUICK SEARCH ONLINE PULLS UP COUNTLESS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CAR ON CAR FORUMS. I ALSO LEARNED THAT A COUPLE OF CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS HAVE ALSO BEEN RECENTLY FILED.

CAR STOPPED AT GAS STATION WITH FUEL GAUGE EMPTY. CAR ADVERTISED AS HAVING A 14.5G FUEL TANK AND A RANGE OF 550+ MILES. WHEN TANK IS EMPTY IT WILL ONLY ALLOW 10-10.5 GALLONS OF FUEL BEFORE FULL. HAS EXHIBITED THIS BEHAVIOR ALL 4 TIMES BEING FILLED UP. TOYOTA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS SINCE THE REDESIGNED 2019 MODEL YEAR AND CONTINUES TO SELL CARS WITH NO NOTIFICATION TO CUSTOMERS LEAVING THEM TO GUESS HOW MUCH FUEL IS LEFT OR, AT WORSE TRY TO OVERFILL TO CAPACITY.

MY 2020 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID DOES NOT GET THE RANGE NOR FUEL TANK CAPACITY AS ADVERTISED BY TOYOTA. THE FUEL TANK IS SPECIFIED AS 14.7 GALLONS, BUT MAXIMUM THAT I AM ABLE TO PUT IN IS AROUND 12 GALLONS AFTER FUEL TANK IS COMPLETELY EMPTY. BEING ABLE TO PUMP EVEN THIS MUCH FUEL INTO THE TANK IS ONLY POSSIBLE AFTER MANY PUMP RESTARTS. THIS IS A BOTH A SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD AS I HAVE TO CIRCUMVENT THE AUTOMATIC PUMP STOP.

THE ACTUAL FUEL TANK CAPACITY OF THE 2019-2020 RAV4 HYBRIDS DO NOT MATCH THE ADVERTISED CAPACITY. THE AVERAGE AMOUNT OF FUEL THAT HAS BEEN ABLE TO ENTER THE TANK WHEN THE GAUGE SHOWS NEARLY EMPTY IS 9-11 GALLONS IF UNSAFE FUELING PRACTICES ARE USED. THE FUEL NOZZLE FROM THE PUMP MUST BE PULLED OUT FROM THE VEHICLE TO PREVENT IT FROM SHUTTING OFF WHILE REFUELING.

FUEL FILLING SHUTS OFF WHEN AT GAS PUMP. TANK NOT CAPABLE OF FILLING TO TOYOTA SPEC GALLON CAPACITY (14.5). MAXIMUM 10.5 GALLONS. GREATLY REDUCING OVERALL MILEAGE AND POSING SAFETY RISK WHEN MANUALLY TOPPING OFF GAS TANK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2020 TOYOTA RAV4. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 5 MPH THE BRAKES FAILED. NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKES 3-4 TIMES AND VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO PARKED VEHICLE. PRIOR TO THE CRASH A WITNESS SAID THE BRAKES MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE DAUGHTER ALSO HEARD A NOISE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE DID CRASH INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HER. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CRASH OCCURRED FEB 3, 2020. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1300. *DT*JB *BF*JB

OUR 2020 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID XSE HAS A FAULTY FUEL TANK. TOYOTA ADVERTISED THAT THE TANK IS 14.5 GALLONS. WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO FILL ABOUT 10 GALLONS.

WHEN THE LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON (IN THE MANUAL INDICATES THERE'S ABOUT 2.2 GALLONS LEFT IN THE TANK), I CAN PUMP ABOUT 9 GALLONS OF FUEL INTO THE TANK TO THE FIRST CLICK-OFF FROM THE GAS PUMP. SO, FOR A 14.5-GALLON TANK WITH A *2.2-GALLON RESERVE I SHOULD BE ABLE TO PUT ABOUT 12 GALLONS IN WHEN I FUEL UP, NOT 9 GALLONS. THE FUEL GAUGE WILL NOT SHOW FULL WHEN FUELING AND THE PUMP FIRST CUTS OFF, IT'S BETWEEN 3/4 AND FULL. THE DTE (DISTANCE TO EMPTY) WILL SHOW ABOUT 410 MILES AT THIS POINT. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO FILL THE TANK TO IT'S STATED CAPACITY. THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY A TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. TOYOTA INDICATED TO THE TECHNICIAN THAT THERE IS NO FIX. TOYOTA IS CONTINUING TO SELL THE RAV4 HYBRIDS WITH DEFECTIVE GAS TANKS.

TOYOTA ADVERTISED AND SOLD THE CAR WITH 14.5 GALLON TANK, BUT I CANNOT FILL MORE THAN 10 GALLONS BEFORE THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY, AND I DO NOT GET THE RANGE THAT IS ADVERTISED.

THE GAS TANK OF MY 2020 RAV4 HYBRID IS NOT FILLING PROPERLY. THE TANK IS SUPPOSED TO BE 14.5 GALLONS. MY FUEL GAUGE WILL READ JUST ABOVE EMPTY AND MY DISPLAY SAYS THAT I HAVE 29 MILES TO EMPTY. WHEN I GO TO FILL-UP MY TANK, THOUGH, IT CUTS OFF AFTER ROUGHLY 8.6 - 9 GALLONS. IF IT WAS TRULY ALMOST EMPTY, THIS IS WAY SHORT OF THE AMOUNT OF GAS THAT IT WILL TAKE TO FILL-UP MY TANK. WHEN I TURN THE CAR BACK ON, MY GAS GAUGE READS BETWEEN 3/4 AND FULL. BETWEEN FILL-UPS, I CAN ONLY DRIVE ABOUT 380 MILES. TOYOTA ADVERTISES ABOUT 580 MILES BETWEEN FILL-UPS. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY TIME I FILL-UP AND AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS.

THE GAS TANK WILL NOT COMPLETELY FILL AT THE GAS STATION. WHEN THE GAS LIGHT COMES ON AND SHOWS THAT IT IS EMPTY, I WILL GO TO THE GAS STATION AND IT WILL ONLY ALLOW ME TO FILL UP ABOUT 9-10GALLONS OF GAS. THE GAS TANK IS LISTED AS BEING 14.5GALLONS. THEREFORE, THE REPORTED GAS MILEAGE THAT WAS EXPECTING TO GET FROM THIS CAR IS EXTREMELY UNDER RATED AND INCORRECT. I CAN SLIGHTLY SQUEEZE THE GAS HANDLE AND PUT MORE FUEL IN THE TANK BUT I RUN THE RISK OF POTENTIALLY OVERFILLING AND SPILLING FUEL ON THE GROUND. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.

THE FUEL TANK WILL ONLY ACCEPT LESS THAN 10 GALLONS OF FUEL. THE STATED CAPACITY OF THE FUEL TANK BY TOYOTA IS 14.5 GALLONS. THIS DEFECT CAUSES AT LEAST TWO PROBLEMS: THE MARKETED RANGE OF THE VEHICLE IS MARKEDLY DIMINISHED, AND THE FUEL GAUGE GIVES FALSE, MISLEADING INFORMATION TO THE POINT YOU NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL IS LEFT. THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW FOR SURE WHEN AND WHERE YOU WILL RUN OUT OF FUEL.

TOYOTA ADVERTISES CAR WITH 14.5 GALLONS OF GAS WITH 590 MPG RANGE AND FUEL TOPS OFF AT 10 GALLONS ONLY.

FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT PROPERLY REGISTER CORRECT FUEL AMOUNT IN VEHICLE. IT IS SHOWING EMPTY WITH ABOUT 4.5 GALLONS LEFT IN FUEL TANK. DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS AN ISSUE AND TRIES TO BLAME IT ON ETHANOL FUEL ADDITIVES....

I WAS TOLD MY TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID HAS A 14.5 GALLON GAS TANK. EVEN WHEN FILLING UP WHEN THE GAS LIGHT TURNS ON, I AM BARELY ABLE TO FILL 10 - 11 GALLONS. UPON FILL-UP, THE SYSTEMS SHOW 520 MILES (EXAMPLE) TO EMPTY BUT WITHIN 20 MILES OF DRIVING THE BALANCES RUNS DOWN TO UNDER 450.

THE VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK CAPACITY IS 14.5 GALLONS. WHEN THE FUEL GAUGE ON THE DASH SHOWS 1/8 OF A TANK, I CAN ONLY ADD 9-10 GALLONS OF FUEL BEFORE THE FUEL PUMP CLICKS OFF. AT A FUEL TANK LEVEL OF 1/8, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO PUT 12-13 GALLONS OF FUEL IN THE TANK. THERE IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE HERE, BUT I'M NOT ABLE TO GET THE DRIVING RANGE ON A TANK OF FUEL THAT I WAS EXPECTING WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I SHOULD BE GETTING A RANGE IN EXCESS OF 500 MILES PER FILL UP, BUT I'M ONLY GETTING AROUND 400.

2020 RAV4 XLE HYBRID. FUEL GAUGE SHOWS EMPTY WHEN ONLY APPROXIMATELY 10 GALLONS OF THE 14.5 GALLON TANK HAVE BEEN USED. THIS LEADS TO GETTING FAR LESS RANGE FROM A TANK OF GAS THAN THE VEHICLE SHOULD OR IS ADVERTISED TO GET. WHEN YOU FILL THE TANK THE COMPUTER FIRST ESTIMATES OVER 500 MILE RANGE BUT THEN QUICKLY DROPS AND ACTUAL RANGE YOU GET IS MORE THAN 100 MILES LESS DUE TO THE FUEL TANK PROBLEM.

VEHICLE INDICATES FUEL EMPTY (GAS GAUGE AND WARNINGS) AFTER APPROX 350 MILES. FUEL TANK SUPPOSED TO BE 14.5 GAL., BUT TANK ONLY ACCEPTS 9-10 GALLONS FUEL BEFORE SHUTOFF. 1 FULL TANK FROM DEALER PLUS 1 FILL-UP WITH SAME RESULT. VEHICLE ALSO ONLY AVERAGING 36 MPG AFTER 2 TANKS MOSTLY HIGHWAY & NOW INTO 1 TANK MIXED CITY/HIGHWAY (TOYOTA INDICATES 38 HIGHWAY/40 CITY). EITHER FUEL TANK IS DEFECTIVE/CAPACITY IS INACCURATE, GAUGES/COMPUTER/WARNINGS ARE DEFECTIVE, OR BOTH?

GAS LIGHT COMES ON AFTER THE CAR HAS CONSUMED ~10 GALLONS. THE VEHICLE IS ADVERTISED HAVING 14.5 GALLON TANK WITH 580 MILE TRIP.
