Toyota Rav4 2013 Service BrakesToyota Rav4 2013 Service Brakes Review #10651568 TOYOTA RAV4 2013 car safety problem was reported on Dec 27, 2013.TOYOTA RAV4 2013, manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . the rav4 was purchased new from a dealer. while driving home, the brake pedal travel felt excessive, as if there was too much air in the system. with a moderate brake application, it felt as though the pedal was almost to the end of its stroke. i measured the pedal travel statically in my garage = with 25 pounds effort, the travel was 2.5 inches. but with 100 pounds effort, the pedal was about 1/2" from the floor, meaning that in the advent of a failed brake circuit, there would not be enough pedal travel to safely stop the vehicle. also, the pedal effort v. travel felt linear, and not asymptotic as one would expect from a brake pedal. i took the rav4 to the dealer service dept. they reported that they found no issues and no service was done. after the visit to the dealership, the brake pedal feel was completely different. the pedal travel at 25 pounds effort was now 1.5", which felt normal. also, the pedal feel was now asymptotic and plenty of travel was left available to allow for a safe stop with a failed circuit. since i have no idea what changed on the vehicle during its visit to the dealership, it leaves open the question of whether the unsafe condition of the rav4 braking system in the brand new state is a systemic issue. on a separate issue, while measuring the brake pedal travel in my garage i noticed that the brake booster would deplete in the middle of a brake application if the brake pedal is modulated slightly (for example, pulsed up and down slighly without fully retracting it). i consider this unsafe as well because if an unusual event occurred, such as an unintended acceleration, then the brake booster would quickly deplete leaving the driver without brake assist and unable to stop the vehicle, unless he/she had the presence of mind to fully retract the brake pedal and reapply it firmly..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 200 miles.

(i can not get a thin piece of paper between the dashboard and inside the windshield. the paper is 2 1/2" above the wiper blade.) i warmed the rav 4 for an extremely long period of time and the ice that had formed on the wipers before i started it would not melt off. i then scraped as much of the ice off the wiper as you can reasonably do without damaging the wiper and ice and snow off that part of the windshield where the blades rest. i started to drive but ice and snow immediately started accumulating on the lower part where defrost does not heat and the blades started to ice up and they scrap across the unheated area. had totally unacceptable vision. would stop every so often and scrap everything best as i could. start driving and a total unacceptable vision window almost immediately. i have driven in this area for 47 years in a lot of blizzards and with a lot of different vehicles. i have never had a situation where i could not keep my windows so i could reasonably see to safely navigate. this rav 4 would not let me do that and i have been in a lot worse blizzard conditions than this one. some toyotas have wiper de-icers with lines through the windshield to heat this part of the windshield where toyota decided to place the wipers. while we were not aware of this issue when purchasing this vehicle new, safety should not be an add on you have to pay for. toyota placed the blades where they are so they should de-ice. i understand heated side mirrors and the like but that is something that can be safely remedied by a driver who does not have them. this wiper problem can not be. thank you. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Toyota Rav4 2013 problem was reported in WATERLOO, IA.
