All Structurebodyhatchbackliftgatehinge And Attachments Complaints
The component that failed/malfunctioned is the rear hatch. The hinges seem to have misaligned and result in the rear hatch not closing properly. Safety is put at risk because the vehicle notifies the driver through a beep system that the rear door is not fully closed properly and does not shut off until forcefully closed manually. The problem has been produced both by the dealership at an AutoNation and an independent autobody repair shop. The vehicle/component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance, representatives, or others besides the ones mentioned in the previous sentence. There were no apparent symptoms or problems prior to the failure. The misalignment appeared approximately two years after the original purchased from the dealership and is an ongoing issue.
The contact owns a 2021 Toyota Rav4. The contact stated that the liftgate was making an abnormal rubbing sound while being closed manually or automatically. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was discovered that fluid was leaking from the left liftgate bar which had caused the failure. The mechanic reached out to the parts department and was provided an estimate for the replacement parts. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000.
