    2014 Toyota Rsv4 EV

    Is the car still under warranty? 5 years is up for most of these cars. If it still under warranty, forget the clowns at walnut creek. You should take it to Toyota of Berkeley. They are the top rav4 ev repair shop in the bay.

    Water dripping under engine

    It’s very likely the AC drain. Mine drips often. If its another kind of fluid, then be concerned.

    Another Check EV system warning

    Dang, same thing just happened to my car. 62,000 miles on my 2014 silver Rav and the battery is dead. Plugged it into a 220 and it didn’t take a charge. Tried to move it later and it wouldn’t shift into ready. Thinking this is the normal fault I unplugged the 12v battery 5 times and restarted...

    RAV4 EV end

    I used to regularly get the “EV sytem fault have your car checked by a dealership immediately” warning. After many trips to the dealer, they never found an issue. I realized the fault in my case was caused by 2 things: 1 Pressing the break and the accelerator at the same time on accident. I...

    Bull bar

    I live in San Francisco and park on the street every night in exceptionally tight spaces, with 16 to 24 inches of space in both the front and back. The great thing about the RAV4EV is the backup camera. Use it. It allows for parking in tight spots with some effort and focus. I consistently...

    Check EV System warning message

    This is an interesting and all too familiar story for me personally and likely one that is common among RAV4EV drivers. Having driven this car for 4 years and owning 2, I’ve had this dreaded “check ev system go to dealer immediately” warning a dozen or more times along with a failure to power...

    New California Corridor Fast Chargers Installed

    So freaking awesome about the Redding station. That cuts 4-5 hours off the trip to Oregon from San Francisco. One DC station seems like a lack of long term planning. There really needs to be 2-4 stations per site. Making some progress though so I'm excited.

    Side Mirror is not a Step - note to the Deer population!

    My left window was knocked off by a flying sheet of plywood that the car in front of me hit and sent airborne while driving down the freeway at 70mph. It cost me $500 to replace as well. I installed it myself and it was super tough because I think there are 3 mounting bolts and I could only see...

    Cost for a New/Replacement/Replace Traction Battery?

    Perhaps someone will be able to figure out how to rebuild the rav pack with the bigger better 2170 cells. I want it and I want it now! Please. Thank you!

    Roof rails replacement

    It's the 2 black trim strips that cover the two main seams on the roof of the car. I don't know how they are attached, however, I do know they are not attached properly because they fly off while driving. One of mine flew off as well. If it's under warranty, the dealer should get you a new one...

    ALL POSTS - GOM - Range Meter - Distance To Empty meter

    When I did this drive last summer, I drove 30mph on a few roads that parallel the highway for 10 miles to make sure I made it though the 100 mile quick charging dead zone.
