From another buyer at Fitzmall. PS I do not work there or for Toyota but I do pay attention! "I've had my RAV4 Limited V6 4X4 for two weeks now. It's silver with the cloth interior, moonroof, JBL system, tow package, and the accessory package (cargo mats, net). I absolutely love it! Thanks to everyone on this forum who recommended Fitzmall. I first attempted to purchase my car through CarsDirect. My "salesman" told me that he placed an order for the car, but then I never heard from him again. By that time, the price on their site was no longer competitive. After that, I did the usual car dealer negotiating. I placed a deposit with a local dealer for the same package as above, but with the leather package and the heated seats. After four weeks of being promised that my car would definitely be in that weekend, the dealer finally admitted that he would have to place an order for the car. In the meantime, I had continued my research online and was impressed with Fitzmall. They had the exact car I wanted listed on their site, but without the leather package. Since the leather package was a nice-to-have on my list, I was ready to buy! It turned out that particular one was presold, but they were able to locate another one for me within 10 days. Even though it was close to a 3 hour drive, it was worth it! The price was great, the service was friendly, and I couldn't be more pleased. I picked up the car with only 3 miles on it and took my time driving it home, with a huge smile on my face the whole time. This is Fitzmall in PA, and I worked with XXXXX. The whole process took less than two hours. The cloth seats are great and I don't regret compromising on the leather package. My previous car didn't have the automatic climate control, so I'm enjoying that new feature, especially during this heat wave. My old car had zero cargo space, so my first trip to the grocery store was a real pleasure. I actually had enough room for the bags without having to pile them into the passenger seat! I love the power and AUX ports in the center console for my iPod. In the morning, I just select a playlist and go. In my old car, I had the cassette adapter and power cords dangling from the dashboard, so I love how neatly everything is tucked away. The volume and selection controls on the steering wheel are very convenient. The cupholders could be improved, of course. It's a small price to pay! I just ordered the mudguards, so I'll be installing them next week. Thanks again for all of the great advice and valuable contributions all of you have made to this forum! It was very helpful to hear about your experiences. " Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First

I recently "overfilled" my tires with too much air. The tire pressure warning light came on in the dash. I deflated the pressure on all of the tires to about 42psi (the tire pressure recomendation on the outside of the tire says "MAX 44psi"). Anyway, even after doing this, the warning light would not go off? Any insight?

Replying to: silverphx (Aug 03, 2006 7:29 pm) Yesterday morning, I drove 30 minutes to the dealer. The manager took a quick look under the dashboard (under the steering wheel). It looked like he was trying to locate something to press. He told me that they would have to re-program it and it would take a while. He then told me he was very sorry but that they were extremely busy and were short handed. They would not have time to look at it and I would have to come back. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper! This evening, I talked to a neighbor who has a 2007 Camry (about 4 months old). She told me that her warning light has come on for the 2nd time. She bought her car at a dealer 2 hrs away. They had to re-program her car and said the spare tire caused the light to go on. She is driving back to the dealer tomorrow. Hopefully when I bring the RAV back next week, the dealer will have time to look at it. I have also had a few "hesitation problems". I will ask about that as well.
