While I ended up not needing the 50k service due to warranty replacements of both the drivetrain and battery pack which took care of the fluids in the 50k service visit, I did receive lower quotes from both Cabe Toyota and Hamer. Definitely worth calling various dealers as the 50k service price...

After 3 weeks at the dealer, Cabe Toyota, we're thrilled to be back in our 2014 Rav4 EV. We were at 50,500 when the double failure occurred. A new traction battery from Tesla was installed along with a new 12 Volt battery. We were in a 2016 Camry SE for 3 weeks and while it's a nice sedan, I...

Ours was just replaced at Cabe Toyota for $100.00 as part of a 3 week service visit that also involved a new traction battery. Thankfully that one was covered under warranty. We're at 50,500 miles on a 2014. Click link below for photo of the Toyota 84 month battery they installed...

My 2014 with 50,500 miles has been at dealer with this warning message since Saturday afternoon. Unlike others who've had the message pop up and they can continue driving, mine appeared when I attempted to start the vehicle and I was not able to start it. We were barely able to get it into...

As this post has been quiet for a while, curious if now that more time has passed if other folks have had the 50K service done yet and how much it cost? I was just quoted $707.00 at Carson Toyota here in Southern California. Had no idea the fluid change out would be so expensive.

Hi There....I just updated it. :) I'd copied from an earlier email but see that on a more recent email it had changed. The phone numbers in above post should now be correct. Also, his email address is: [email protected]

Good News to report! At the very last minute I purchased an extended warranty at a great price right here in California. After reaching out to countless California dealers (most never even got back to me) and being quoted as much as $900.00 higher....yes, that's $900.00, I'd basically given up...

Did you follow up with Carson Toyota about this? If so, how was it handled? It seems so out of character for their EV guys who see more RAV4 EVs than anyone. I'll soon be having the drive unit replaced myself on our 2014 at Carson. Just under 36k miles. The clunking sound upon acceleration...

I just learned that I was getting bad info when getting quotes...seems the handful of dealers (who I could actually get quotes from) were quoting based on category T4 and come to find out the Rav4 EV should be category T3. If anyone finds out that this info is not correct, please advise. BIG...

After almost 36k miles on our 2014, I switched out all four tires. Purchased the Bridgestone Dueller H/L 422 225/65/R17 for $539.96 total after the current $70.00 instant rebate at Costco. (this may expire 8/5 unfortunately) I ordered via costco.com and once they arrived at our local Costco...

:) I'm trying to stay local and support our California dealers but selling extended warranties seems to be more of a bother than a service. I can't even get the dealer I bought the car from to call me back. It's looking like Toby will indeed have another sale.

Mark Rivers had posted earlier in this thread about getting a 6 year / 125k Platinum warranty for $995.00 via Frontier Toyota in Valencia so I called them up....price today is $1995.00 (perhaps Mark mistakenly dropped the "1" in his post), going up to $2500.00 for 8 year / 125k. Reaching...

Hi Mark, I'm right at 24k a year.. Who was your contact at the dealership for your warranty purchase? Did you get the zero deductible version for that price? Thank You!

I would hope that a dealer in California could match or beat Troy's prices in MA. Perhaps Dianne or ? Kinda like Dianne was the point person on EV sales / leases, we need someone to become the California Toyota Extended Warranty point person. I'd imagine with the right pricing, they'd sell...

I'm using a Moto X with Republic Wireless and have had no problems. The version of the Entune App on my phone is 1.12.311.4 and I'm using Android 4.4.2 Are you using a later update of either Android or Entunes than my versions listed above?
