    You Have a Refund Check Coming Your Way

    I live on the East coast and after purchasing my vehicle in February of 2017, I signed up for Safety Connect. Corporate (Thorn K.) along with my local dealership tried for several months to activate Entunes. In the end they said it was my phone (tried 5 different ones), or my service (tried...

    Oh What a Feeling - Toyota RAV4 EV

    I know there are a lot of posts bashing Toyota (some of them may be mine :) ), so I want to share a good experience. I recently had my motor replaced (2/2018). The local dealership (Hendrick Toyota) was very helpful. They only had the car for a day and a half (after receiving the replacement...

    ALL POSTS - motor whine or "HUM" (Milling Sound)

    From 9/22/2017: Update: New motor was installed yesterday (2/28/2018) :D :D . It took awhile since the service tech had to schedule a trip from CA to NC to perform the work (actually to oversee the work performed by local dealership). All is well so far, very smooth, no whine and no...

    Buying a Rav4 EV in Milwaukee

    All of the above is great information. Beware that if the vehicle is out of state and does not have the firmware updates the remote features of the APP may or may not work. I live in North Carolina and my remote Entune APPs do not work. Thorn (customer service) tried for about a month to...

    Talk me into it. Or not.

    Congratulations! I purchased my Rav4ev in February and absolutely love it. I live in Wilmington, NC so the local dealership has never seen one. I am unable to get Entunes remote Apps working (but that is a minor issue for me). I installed a 240 volt Juicebox EVSE and it has made charging a...

    New Owner

    Hello, I purchased a 2013 RAV4 EV in February 2017. Like most people here, I absolutely love it! Unlike most people here I live on the East coast. North Carolina to be specific. The vehicle was turned in at the end of its lease to a dealer in Charleston, SC. I believe it was previously...
