Consumer Description

THIS IS THE THIRD COMPLAINT I HAVE HAD ON MY 2006 RAV4 V6 2WD EMISSION SYSTEM CAUSING MY VEHICLE STABILITY, TRACTION CONTROL, AND SPEED CONTROL SYSTEMS TO FAIL. THE FIRST EVENT IS ODI NUMBER 10268422. THE SECOND EVENT WAS SUBMITTED ALSO, BUT I DID NOT GET AN EMAIL- HOPEFULLY IS SUBMITTED. THIS THIRD EVENT WAS DUE TO A MILE OF DRIVING SLOWLY IN LIGHT SNOW CAUSING A FUEL EVAPORATION FILTER TO BREAK A TUBE FITTING OFF (SECOND EVENT). WATER ENTERED THE BROKEN TUBE AND FAILED THE FUEL EVAP CHARCOAL CANISTER WHICH IN TURN FAILED THE OTHER SYSTEMS LISTED IN THIS THIRD EVENT. AFTER SOME WRANGLING, THE DEALER AGREED TO SUBMIT IT TO MY EXTENDED WARRANTY AND IT WAS COVERED IN FULL. *TR
