    How does California registration work?

    If you were driving on CA insurance you had an even bigger potential issue. FYI, natives don't call it "Cali" it's really not a term that's liked.

    RECALL: going into neutral / Speed Sensor failure

    I have never had a single firmware upgrade to my car and I'm reluctant to do so. 1 year left on my lease with no issues so far:) I do have one of the five special edition models which has the slightly more powerful motor and sport rims so perhaps that made a difference.

    RAV EV suspension

    I had the MXV4 on my LEAF and now the Duelers, They have more traction and have been wearing well and they are very efficient.

    Car/stopped +Check EV System warning msg AFTER recall update

    I see new BMW and Range Rovers on the side of the road often. There are just not enough cars to work out or fix the issues like on other high volume cars. On the flip side no issues here and I know of others not on the forum with no issues.

    Car/stopped +Check EV System warning msg AFTER recall update

    Corporations work on the bottom line cost and since the public could care less about RAV4 EV repairs as there are so few numbers it is easier to play the cat and mouse game on repairs. The easy strategy is for toyota to buy them back delay until the lease is over and junk them or sell them with...

    Time to Charge at less than 10kw?

    My 2011 LEAF went about 75-80 miles at 60 MPH, never 60.

    RECALL: going into neutral / Speed Sensor failure

    The majority of the issues with the RAV are Tesla made components with few exceptions. Toyota does not make the charger, gateway, inverter, motor, etc. These are Tesla design failures. EV drive systems are supposed to be ultra reliable yet Tesla seems to have the record in the industry for the...

    San Diego & dynamat

    It's an ICE car, not a luxury car so it will be noisy.

    San Diego & dynamat

    Do not use a product that will heat and smell. Doing a car in Dynamat properly can also add quite a bit of weight, Seems like a waste of money for a car like the RAV.

    Bad 12 Volt Battery: Every light on, Check SRS Airbag System

    Your battery sounds shot and or you have a 12V charge issue. That voltage will mess everything up and sounds like a new battery should solve your issue. Don't even bother taking the neg cable off if that is your resting voltage.

    Charging from solar.

    Seems many of their old bad reviews have been stripped from Amazon. Some are still there. It's a cheap Chinese unit sold here by a bunch of inexperienced people that provide bad support. The enclosure is about the grade of a Radio Shack hobby box.

    Charging from solar.

    I would never recommend this evse to anyone, it is poorly made, horrible enclosure, very poor support and many people have had them fail- more than once. I would say the worst EVSE on the market today sold in the USA. If you can return it do so quickly and avoid future frustration.

    RECALL: going into neutral / Speed Sensor failure

    All the issues are Tesla based. I have owned so many Toyotas and just change the oil. If anything it makes me very unimpressed with Tesla engineering.
