Consumer Description

THIS CAR IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEATH TRAP AND LEMON BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY EVEN THOUGH MY USED RAV4 ONLY HAS 75K MILES ON IT. WHAT A BLACK EYE ON TOYOTA AND THE NHTSA FOR NOT RECALLING THIS MESS OF A CAR! THIS IS A TRAVESTY...WE BOUGHT A TOYOTA FOR $8200 BECAUSE WE THOUGHT TOYOTA WAS A GOOD CAR...NOW WITH ONLY 75K MILES BUT 13 YRS OLD IT IS A TOTAL DANGEROUS LEMON....WHY WON'T YOU FORCE TOYOTA TO DO A MANDATORY RECALL BEFORE PEOPLE ARE KILLED IN THIS DEATH TRAP? NOT RIGHT, PLEASE ACT....
