Replying to: roj1 (Feb 06, 2008 10:12 pm) I've had mine for 19 months also and have never had a reason to doubt the RAV4's reliability or build quality. It's one of the most solid vehicles I've owned. Mine is the V6 so I can't comment on the 4-cylinder, but I'm quite pleased with the RAV4 overall, particularly the fuel economy, considering its size. I'd buy it again.

Replying to: ces1938 (Feb 07, 2008 9:30 am) I won't be able to wait long enough to consider the Venza. I decided to look at reviews of other SUVs to see if I was overlooking any good options. Some posters seemed to have even more problems than the problems with the Rav4 reported here. I was all set on the CRV until I read about problems with the AWD CRVs. I guess all cars may have problems and my best bets are still likely the CRV and RAV4.   Thanks everyone for your feedback. It has been very helpful.   -Rob Replies to this message: cc2cara (Feb 08, 2008 10:10 am)
#268 of 285 Rav 4 Rob by ces1938 Feb 08, 2008 (9:00 am)
I have have the AWD drives gave a lot of problems... don't think I would go for that unless you live in a area that has rough winters.....You might check out the Mercury mariner SUV it gets some pretty ratings so does Ford Escape..... I have not driven a domestic car since 1985... I was burned out on such poor quality.. I spent 40 years in Quality Control and have no patients with poor quality....any where check out this web site on the Mariner ...

Replying to: roj1 (Feb 08, 2008 12:30 am) Rob, Have you looked at the Subaru? I had an Outback for 10 years. I loved it. I wish I still had it.
#270 of 285 Re: New recommendations by roj1 Feb 08, 2008 (10:24 am)
I considered Subaru given that their cars/suvs receive great reviews. However, my wife did not want a car that looks like a station wagon (Outback, Forester) and the Legacy and Impreza were to small for our needs. So, I unfortunately had to eliminate Subaru from our search.   I'll take a look at the Mariner.   Thanks, -Rob Replies to this message: mlmcgahee (Feb 08, 2008 1:55 pm)

Replying to: roj1 (Feb 08, 2008 10:24 am) Take a look at the 2008 Nissan Rogue. After my Lemon Law buyback of my 2007 RAV4 I bought the Rogue and I have been very pleased with it.   http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/WebX/.f151681/   http://www.nissanusa.com/rogue/   Mike

I have been reading all the complaints about the RAV4. Mine was a 2007 and it was the worst thing I ever owned. I filed the under SC lemon law with NCDS ( National Center for Dispute Settlement) and I won. I did not have to go to any hearings. The only thing I had to provide was maintenance forms where I had the RAV4 in for service and they could not fix the problem. They gave me the run around for awhile but I kept on them and I settled on 2/8/08 and they only offset the mileage for the mileage that was on the vehicle the first time I took it in. I am looking at the Nissan Rouge. Good luck to everyone else.
#273 of 285 Good for you jackwon!!! by ces1938 Feb 10, 2008 (3:17 pm)
This is the only thing they will understand, it worked on the domestic cars 20 years and I believe it will for the imports like Toyota...One thing about it, Toyota has to sell cars but we don't have to buy them.... The last domestic a 1985 Buick ( what a loser) but if the domestic auto company's build a better car than I will go back to them.... I am thinking of that right now......ces1938
#275 of 285 New Software by pam14 Feb 18, 2008 (6:34 am)
I was contacted by the service manager at the local Toyota dealer. He advised me that the new software "fix" designed by Toyota for the cruise control problem is now available. I will take my car in on Wednesday for the update.   I purchased my car last March and struggled through the cruise control issue for most of the summer. I posted messages last summer detailing my experiences; however, the problem appeared to repair itself sometime in August.   I plan to have the software installed anyway. Will report here when I have some experience with the new device.
