We have purchased several Toyota's over the years. All of them have given us great service. Our latest a 2021 XLE has taken the shine off that impression. We hear whistling noises at highway speeds, the engine is much noisier then previous generation and the transmission is also not as enjoyable. Interior sort of jumps back to a more sterile and cheaper finish. I guess everything is still providing a decent experience just not what I have come to expect from past Toyota's.

Pro: *Fantastic new D4S generation of engine. *Attractive exterior styling. *Updated interior ergonomic and technology. *Same useful utility. Cons: -Vague steering. In fact its night and day worse compare to the previous generation of 2018. -Inferior lumbar support on drivers seat which is painfully noticeable on long trips.

i am surprise at negitive reviews, I am happy with my rav4. It gets great gas mileage, I am getting 30 mpg combined and after breakin I am expecting alittle better. I do agree the seats are firm but I have had back surgery and it really isnt a problem for me. I find the cabin to be super quiet and I do not hear engine noise on the highway. It is a small suv and I do not expect a Lexus performance. I am happy with my purchase. I owned a CRV and had issues with it. I am hoping that toyota comes through for me with a great reliable suv.

RAV4 ways when Cruise Control & LTA is on

Yesterday we took the RAV4 on a long distance drive to checkout the features. I like the road sign and lane sway warning feature however we observed the car was swaying and appeared to be difficult to control while traveling around 65-75 mph when LTA and Cruise Control were on. I did not use cruise control during the remainder of the trip. This seems to be a known issue .. too bad we did not see this issue when we checked out the numerous video reviews on Youtube ...... https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/Discussion-t89236_ds1096909

I think they’re actually may be a safety issue with the 2021 RAV4, I have been trying to get in contact with Toyota and it’s almost impossible. When I drive starting around 60 to 65 mph, the car gets really shaky and bumpy and feels unstable. I am now noticing this reflected in a few other reviews and I’m starting to think that there actually may be an issue with this exact model
