$3000 is not much these days for repairs. If you get in a minor accident, it can set off the air bags, and that can cost a few grand right there.

The cost of repairs was not really my concern. It was the comment from the collision manager about the RAV being so cheaply made and not a safe vehicle.

If the body-shop manager's words were true, I think the govt & insur industry's crash test ratings would reflect that.
But they don't.
 
RAV on.

I recently cracked the spare tire shell and am looking for a new one. Does anybody have a source? So far I can only find the cloth ones.

RS3200/Keyless Lights Issue by rray49

I have an issue with the RS3200/keyless entry for my RAV4. There are times that I do not want the headlights to stay on for 30 seconds but I can't figure out if there is a way to selectively turn that feature off. I can select the chirping and alarms (valet) but not the lights apparently. Does anyone know how?
 
Also, is there a way to turn the clock light up higher so I can see it? I've got the interior lights turned up as high as they can go.

I just had the same problem. With the 2004 RAV, you just hold in the trip reset button, and then turn the ignition to ON...you'll see dashes and when they disappear, the light goes off. But I'm sure you figured it out already, since your message was from almost 2 years ago! I just wanted to post this, since I couldn't find anything. I had to figure it out myself!!!

Check Engine Light With Code 1130 by mercara
Aug 13, 2006 (5:59 pm)

Hi,
 
I have a 2000 RAV4 AWD with 42000 miles on it. My check engine light came on twice a couple of months back and then went away by itself after a bit of driving. I assumed it was because of the Gas cap not being tightened.
 
It came on again today so I used a ODBC-2 scanner and got code 1130 which means "Air fuel Sensor Circuit Range/Performance". The problem is that only cars with California Emmission requirements had the Air Fuel Sensor. The non California Emission cars came with the Heated Oxygen Sensor. Before, I order the part from the dealer, I would like to know if the car had the California Emmission system. The car was sold new in Maryland. Is there anyway to find out from the VIN number?

I checked the crash test ratings, Why dosn't it give any crash test from the REAR? I would be especially concerned about being hit from the REAR while I was driving a car that the manufacturer put NO REAR BUMPER on.
