NHTSA Complaint #11398108 — 2021 TOYOTA RAV4

THIS VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT OPERATION OF ITS LANE KEEP ASSISTANCE. ONE ACTIVATED, IT REGULARLY WILL DO THE OPPOSITE OF KEEPING YOUR LANE. IT HAS RUN ME OFF THE ROAD AND ALSO INTO THE LANE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE REPORTED TO THE DEALER BUT THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE IT. I HAVE ESCALATED TO THE DEALER AS THIS HAPPENS VERY FREQUENTLY AND IS IN SAFE. UPON ACTIVATION OF THE LTA, IT TURNS THE STEERING WHEEL APPROX 15- 20 DEGREES AND IMMEDIATELY TAKES YOU OUT OF THE LANE. THE LANE DEPARTURE SYSTEM KICKS IN AND THEN TRIES TO BRING YOU BACK AND THIS GOES ON AND ON WITH CLEARLY MARKED LANES. IF I DIDN'T APPLY QUITE A BIT OF FORCE TO PREVENT THE DEPARTURE I COULD HAVE WELL BEEN AN INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, GOING DOWN A WELL MARKED INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, NIGHT AND DAY TIME, NO RAIN OR SNOW/ICE. THE VEHICLE RECOGNIZED THE LANE DEPARTURE (BEEPS) BUT IT WAS THE VEHICLES SYSTEM THAT DROVE THE CAR OUT OF THE LANE (WITH MY HANDS ON THE WHEEL OF COURSE). A VIDEO CAN BE SHARED UPON REQUEST.
