2019 TOYOTA RAV4 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2019 Toyota RAV4 has 7 recalls, the most serious involving brake and suspension failures: the brake booster pump can fail and reduce braking power while disabling stability control, and front lower suspension arms can crack and separate from the wheel assembly, causing loss of vehicle control. Hybrid models are affected by both the brake booster and suspension recalls. The 2.5L four-cylinder engine, found in both standard and hybrid variants, can develop internal cracks in its castings that allow coolant to leak, causing the engine to overheat and potentially stall. Two recalls address the electric power steering system, where water can enter the steering gearbox through a poorly sealed cover and corrode internal components, making the wheel significantly harder to turn, especially at low speeds. The backup camera on certain vehicles may not activate when shifting into reverse due to a damaged electrical connector, leaving the driver without the rear view. There is also a label recall affecting vehicles equipped with factory-installed floor mats, where an incorrect load capacity label could lead to unintentional overloading.
