Another datum: 2012. 35.4k Miles. Lived in Denver since 2015 and about 22k miles. Perhaps used Extended charge a half dozen times since I bought it (at 22k miles). 132 miles after balancing overnight. 90.4%. I was hoping for a bit more based off of others’ results but that’s what it showed.

Just did a Tony Test. Result was 132 miles, or 90.4%.

For sale in Denver, CO: 2012 RAV4 EV. 35,377 miles as of today. Relevant extras: - 8/75 Toyota Platinum VSA, fully transferrable, good until Feb 2021/75k miles - both Nokian winter tires (on it) and 4 Continental all-seasons (in bags) - 2" receiver Curt hitch, no wiring, for bike rack use -...

I put on a Curt 13149 today. Easy peasy. Just required removing the plastic covering three of the four mounting points and then the usual hitch-business of balancing and lifting the hitch with one hand while threading the first bolt in with the other. This is especially fun with a loose-jointed...

My wife's RAV4 EV may be adding +1 to the Seattle count. Currently it lives in Denver but I'm contemplating jumping back into the crazy real estate market of Seattle proper...

CarMax's warranty is legit. They will pay. Look up Doug DeMuro's travails with a Range Rover for an illustration of this. That said, a good price on a Toyota Platinum VSA will be cheaper than the comparable MaxCare plan, so why not just go with Toyota?

I own a RAV4 EV in Denver. 1) Extended warranty is available if the car has less than 36k miles on it AND also its in-service date was less than 36 months ago. This is for the product you want, the Toyota Platinum VSA. As evidenced in other threads shop around for price on that--any Toyota...

Also note that Tesla will not fulfill reservations strictly by ordered received. Prior S/X owners and buyers of higher trim 3s get priority, and then they said within the US they'll fulfill from the West Coast moving eastward. I made a reservation for myself. The wife will keep her RAV4 EV, and...

I'm local in the sense I'm in driving distance from the dealership but had never seen the guy or set foot in the dealership until then.

Reposting the chart and updating my own info: Today I bought an 8 year/75k miles/$0 deductible Toyota Platinum VSP from Bruce Harrington at Stapp Interstate Toyota in Frederick, CO. $734. No tax even though CO is a sales tax state. Smooth transaction, with only a slight delay as the Toyota...

Recall work was done (again, in Denver) yesterday: 1/13/16. No 12V or DC-DC fixes done but apart from my remote climate weirdness that one day (that hasn't happened since 12V reset) the car has been fine. Remedy still wasn't ready for wiper issue as expected.

Furthermore the "new" Platinum VSPs are very much still available depending on one's mileage and in-service date. My 2012's in-service date was February 2013. Therefore I'm getting the extended warranty this month before the 36 months is up.

Look 6 posts above yours. I have a table.

Out here in Denver I finally have an appointment to get the recall work done: Jan 13. We tried back in November, iirc, but the regional rep was spooked by 12V codes (+/- related) and didn't do the work. A few months later and it's more apparent that there may exist 12V issues, but the main...

I just checked back in with my local contact at Stapp Interstate Toyota (just north of Denver by about 30 miles). He said earlier this year that he'd match the best quote I got for the 8 year/75k mile Platinum VSP, which was $734. This also seems a good time to repost the table that I compiled...

Yes, I did that and it did nothing. Only thing that worked was the remote climate activation. Same thing happened this morning, with the same solution. After that I took Tony's advice and unhooked the negative terminal for 30 seconds on the 12V battery. For what it's worth the problem didn't...

When invoked this way is it impossible to turn the vehicle off via the power button, as I experienced?

Today my RAV4 EV got stuck in a state where it wasn't fully on yet couldn't be turned off, either. Setting: climate preconditioning turned on via Entune app. I could hear the heater whirring away as I walked up to the vehicle. I unlocked it via the driver's door handle touch pad but pulled open...

I thought the Toyota VSP was only available for in-warranty vehicles. I wonder if Toyota Kirkland is selling some other product.

I got this error today. I was already in drive for a minute or so, and was cruising at about 25 mph while hitting the button to turn the cruise control system on (not to set it, just to turn it on). Error cleared on a simple once off-on restart. Go figure.
