Toyota Rav4 Power Train Safety Report | Jan 01, 2013
Reported on Jan 01, 2013
| AFTER OWNING MY NEW 2012 RAV 4 FOR ONLY 3 DAYS, I VISITED A FRIEND'S HOUSE AND ATTEMPTED TO PARK MY CAR ON A SLIGHTLY SLOPED DRIVEWAY. I GOT OUT OF MY CAR AFTER TURNING OFF THE PUSH BUTTON START BUT NEGLECTED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. AS I WAS GETTING OUT OF THE CAR, SOMEONE SHOUTED, YOUR CAR IS ROLLING - STEP ON THE BRAKE! . BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO REENTER THE CAR, IT HAD ALREADY ROLLED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE IN FRONT OF IT. MY RAV 4 WAS DAMAGED, AS WAS THE VW PASSAT WAGON IT RAN INTO. THE DAMAGE TO MY BRAND NEW CAR IS ESTIMATED TO BE $1000. THE DAMAGE ESTIMATE TO THE OTHER CAR IS NOT KNOW YET BUT AT LEAST IN THAT VICINITY. LUCKILY, NO ONE WAS IN BETWEEN THE 2 CARS. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. *TR | |
