    Car won't charge / Onboard Charger Failure

    I just had my on board charger replaced. Car worked perfect for 22 months and 29,000 miles than one night my phone started getting charger started and charger stopped notices every 10 minutes. I didn't hear it right away, but after about 40 minutes I went out to garage to see what was going on...

    Cost of normal maintenance after free 25,000 mile plan?

    I just found out that I am past the free maintenance package (rotate tires and system check). Has anyone else taken their car in with more than 25k miles? And if you have what did you pay? What would you pay for such a simple service? And do you plan to keep taking your car in every 5000 miles...

    How many people have had zero problems with their Rav EV?

    I went 29k miles and 22 months with no real problems, than with no sign of failing my charge in the car went out. The car was going to so good I stopped reading this forum.

    Door Glass Replacement

    I know the front windscreen is EV specific. I had to replace mine and due to the humitiy sensor and insulation. I had to get it from a dealer $1,400ish. There is a post somewhere on this page.

    top speed in RAV4?

    In normal mode I can just brake 90 and hold it there. in sport mode I have only pushed it once and I was able to get it just over 100, not by much. I guess I haven't tried to hard cause I am never out side of the city on open freeway.

    My Thoughts after owning the Rav4EV for a year

    A year ago today I bought the Rav4 EV. It was a cool feeling knowing I was one of the very first people to buy the 2012 Rav4 EV, that is until a few months later and they started selling them with a discount. Being one of the first has other downsides, two days into owning the car I got a EV...

    I did take my Rav4 EV into Manhattan Beach toyota last Monday. Before I went Toyota customer called them to set up time so they could work with the tech at Manhattan beach to run some test.

    Blink "Do you have an RAV4 EV?" survey?

    Does any one know if the Tesla's have the same heat problem that the Rav4 EV has with the Blink chargers. At my wives work they are going to change the chargers because there are a few Tesla's and our Rav4 that does not charge on the SPX chargers. I want to have my wife make sure they don't...

    ALL POSTS Charging Sounds, Buzzing when Charging, Noises

    My car has been making the Rapid pulsing noise when charging ever since I bought it in September. I took it to Toyota with in the first week and since there was only a couple of Rav4 EVs out there at the time the mechanics did not really know anything about the car. We connected it to a...

    Windshield replacement

    I had something hit my window a few weeks back causing a 3 inch round break in my windshield. It was to big to fill and fix, so after talking to Safelite for 30 minutes trying to make sure they understood that the car was a EV, I set up an appointment. They came out and right away the insaller...

    TESLA SPOTTING IS HARD

    Sobayimage, Do you have a silver Rav4 EV? And when you leave PV do you take Gaffey? If so you are the only Rav4 EV that I have seen in the wild. I've been looking for more Ravs in the Pedro PV area. I have even shown mine in the PV car show on the first Saturday of each month. I park next to...

    Dec 2014 sales Rav4 EV - "37" Production Ended Aug 2014

    Interesting points talking about the Leaf selling world wide. They sold 2,236 last month divide that for 50 states (no I do not know if the Leaf is sold in all 50 states) and that is only 45 cars in each state. That's half of what the Rav4 did past month in just one state. And as far as Toyota...
