Toyota RAV4 Hybrid

• FB "Toyota RAV4 Hybrid & Prime Discussion": "My Fiance's 2018 XLE Hybrid Rav 4. We bought it 3 years ago with only 60k miles. Just rolled 150k! Regular Maintenance only. 3,000 Mile Oil Changes, Wix Oil Filters. 1 set of tires, a couple alignments, and a few headlight bulbs. ... Never skips a beat, hoping for atleast 300k out of this one!"
• FB "Toyota & Lexus CABLEGATE" group: "Three months wait for parts???? My 2021 Rav4Prime with just 40,000 miles suddenly became undriveable because of the corroded cable. Had to be towed to dealer, who then didn't have time to look at it for a week. Now Dealer says it will take anywhere between 3 weeks and THREE MONTHS to get the parts! I'm in Vermont—lots of salt on winter roads."

• FB "Toyota RAV4 Hybrid & Prime Discussion": "Has anyone here upgraded their non-Prime RAV4 to the larger RAV4 Prime brakes? ... Was it a direct bolt-on, or were there any surprises?"

Toyota Prius

• FB "Toyota Prius 5th Gen Club": "UPDATE 2: Brought car home from dealer on Tuesday. Saturday morning I had a completely dead battery again... They installed a new battery and disconnected the StarGard tracking device that the dealer had added before I bought it... most parasitic drains are from after market add ons."
• FB "Toyota Prius 5th Gen Club": "I had the same problem with my 2024 Prime XSE Premium when it was about 2 months old. Dealer ended up replacing 12V battery twice. It seemed to be the Toyota app on my phone talking to the car. Senior mechanic recommended not using the app. I have not had the problem since."
• FB "Toyota Prius 5th Gen Club": "The 12 volt dead battery is a gift from Toyota Japan for the last 15 years... They dont care at all..."

• FB "Toyota Prius 5th Gen Club": "I bought a 2026 base and like it better than my 2024 top of line... The top tier - has the 19 inch tires. Hit the Slightest pothole and plan on replacing two tires (immediate pinch bubbles in sidewall)."
• FB "Toyota Prius 5th Gen Club": "Keep your tires inflated to at least 39 psi all the way around. This will prevent bubbles and pinch flats. The designer tires are loud, skittery in the rain and susceptible to catastrophic failure."

Toyota Camry Hybrid

• FB "2025/2026/2027 Camry Hybrid": "Hi, this is my 2026 XSE with the premium plus package, I'm having an issue with my car: when I drive on the freeway at speeds of 50 mph or higher, I hear a lot of wind noise.

• FB "2025/2026/2027 Camry Hybrid": "Normal for Toyota speedometers..." / "Toyotas have been doing this a long time. When passing one of those signs that says your speed in our Toyotas it's consistently 3-4mph slower than the speedometer, meanwhile our Tesla and Porsche's are spot on with the sign."
• FB "2025/2026/2027 Camry Hybrid": "I'm unsure if I'm using the A/C wrong but ever since I got my 15000 done and the two recalls finished, I feel like the A/C takes longer to cool down or blow hot air constantly compared to cold air."
