RAV4 recalls

HHR recalls from same site

http://www.mycarstats.com/auto_RECAL...HR_RECALLs.asp

Total complaints on RAV4 from 05-08 models 186, TSB's 38
Total complaints on HHR's from 05-08 models 187. TSB's 95

Granted, there was no official 05 HHR, but they do list one. This also does not cover the rest of the RAV4 before 05. Which add an additional 484 complaints and 165 TSB's. So hardly perfect.......

 

With the HHR you get to drive a vehicle with styling, or you could have a RAV4 that looks like all the other small SUVs.

 

I owned a 98 Rav4 and that thing was awesome Like a little tonka truck:

 

And the new body styling way surpasses that one Dayton.

 

They all have issue's i don't give a crap if its a Chevy, Toyota, Hyundai. When you buy any of them there is ALWAYS a chance you will have RECALL'S,ISSUE's its call owning a Vehicle that is put together by Man and Machine there not perfect. None of them.

If you want to get into Detail. Toyota had more Recalls then any other Company in 2008.

I get so sick of people crying about my Chevy is a POS. I'm buying a Toyota etc. Guess What go ahead and trade in that Chevy and get that Toyota, Guess what there is just as great of a chance it will have Recalls. TSB's as well. Get over it.

x2.....

 

x3...?

 

Yeah All form. I bought the HHR because it was FUNCTIONAL. The look was a bonus. IF I was about all form and no function, the PT would have been in the running.

Given a choice I would rather have function ..thats why we bought the RAV 4 after the HHR......Honda Accord Coupe will replace the HHR now that we have the additional cargo area of the Toyota.

 

BS...IF GM actually turned the inon safety issues into recalls like Toyota does they would far surpass Toyota. Where are the recalls for the DEV-cool intake manifold issue? OH thats right. They are still in court. Toyota recalled vehicles well out of warranty with 100K+ miles on them for four model years to replace head gaskets "just because" I know I had one of them and was suprise when Toyota said they would fix the blown head gasket on my Tacoma that had 85K on it free and replace the other side as well. They then sent me a recall notice after I had it done as they did to every registered owner of the 3.0 6cyc for three or four model years regardless of warranty. Show me one instance of GM doing that? And you and I both know GM has had far more opportunity to do that. Plastic intake gaskets and DEVcool is a perfect example. They had to be sued to acknowledge an issue LOL

Where is the recall notice for jamming ignitions? Steering column issues? Both could be "safety" issues. Both are hardly unique. Instead they sweep issues under the rug and make one feel like their issue is unique.

Now look over a 10 year period In recent news and history news Toyota/Lexus has surpassed every single other auto-maker as the longest lasting vehicles with the fewest problems -Consumer Reports TEN year study Auto Issue 2008.

Just the facts....
