2021 Toyota RAV4

noise

Discouraged with the lack of power and the Loud noise from the engine when on throttle.

Excessive rattles in the tailgate and plastic trim, especially when it's cold outside below 40°.

Continues to get strange rattling sounds from cheap plastic.

Road and wind noise is soo loud it is dizzying.

The only downside is that the vehicle sounds at all times like multiple pieces are loose on the interior… there are rattles in the cabin from every direction that cannot seem to be found or fixed.

It causes vibration at take off pedal shudder just a rough start after engine start is engaged.

The car has a lot of wind related noise at highway speeds and fabric seats are not comfortable.

Bought this Prime XSE right off showroom floor with a substantial premium (dealer mark up) and on the first drive almost returned it, reasons: rattles and noises caused by road imperfections.

audio-system

The audio system in the Rav4 Prime SE is definitely subpar.

The stereo on the dashboard has sun glares that's annoying.

but the accident prevention system (PCS) does not work, so that you receive a warning you must first have the accident.

Toyota has some engineering issues with the system that they need to work on.

The engine sounds quite entertaining(funny), that's probably because we aren't used to hear a 4 cylinder engine sound for 14+ years.

The vehicle is back in the shop for electrical system.

battery

Battery keeps having problems, and they replaced it.

but the tighter suspension and the low to the ground and in the center heavy battery minimize that.

highway use.. Come one weekend, the car is sitting in the garage with a dead battery, unable to start or power on any electronics.. Toyota has a TSB pointing to updating the software of the DCM module.

The gas tank issues and dying battery issues are really serious lapses on the part of Toyota.

engine

However I'm not a fan of the on off engine gas saving system.

About the only negative thing I could say about it is that the engine is a bit loud at higher RPM’s,

On a positive note I drove another 120 miles before the dashboard indicated the engine has stopped.

comfortable

Comfortable, well designed vehicle with great performance, and seamless, smooth transition between gas and electric.

The car itself is comfortable and looks nice.

It is large enough to be extremely comfortable; even in the back seat, and small enough to be practical.

I feel safe and very comfortable in my “Limited” rav 4.

the most beautiful car and is so comfortable car.

The RAV4 is easy to drive, plus it's quite comfortable on longer trips.

GREAT SUV VERY ROOMY AND COMFORTABLE BIG SCREEN FOR GPS AND SOUND SYSTEM AMAZING HAS SYM MUSIC GREAT OVERALL AND A FAM CAR THATS THE BEST PART.

I love my car nice smooth ride very comfortable  lots of room inside   very nice looking  rich looking  love the color  I just love it

The comfort level is great with no road noise.

backseat

Meets all our needs love air in backseat so far it’s fantastic great room in way back love auto open back hatch love trunk cover and automatic power driver seat

but you can fold the back seat to make rooms for storage.

They work for us & have grandkids car seats buckled in the back seat.

This is my forever vehicle, I love how it rides, plenty of room especially the back seat, it fits 2 car seats and still room for a person to sit.

feature

I traded up to the 2021 Rav4, Hybrid, AWD LEX, which was fully loaded with all the Amenities and safety features and with my trade etc, I would spend about &#36;30.00 more, which nI saved in insurance.

But for a 46K car (XSE with premium audio) it lacks in other features - dated media system, underwhelming interior, no memory seats in base trim, no trunk organization, or any other features which some standard in other lower priced cars.

Overall, love this 2021 XLE Rav4 as I did the 2018; including the new features.

I was and am impressed with all the safety features in this vehicle.

Like the way it drives an the safety features.

I love my new RAV4 it is so user friendly the drive is amazing and I have all the safety features I got the Lunar Rock color and I love it

Car has so far met all of my needs, loving the Apple play feature!

A few other features I love include keyless entry/ignition, audio, 2 toned color along with the geometric patterned seats, sunroof,  & 5 USB ports.

fuel

Best car ever when it comes to pumping gas never had a vehicle that gives me 600 miles range with only &#36;30 very happy on the saving *****

I want to trade this for a car with better gas mileage.

It has good gas mileage, exceeds the 42 miles of battery range, solid construction and sturdy, smooth ride.

Bold looks, outstanding fuel economy and Toyota proven-reliability makes this 5th gen RAV4 the ultimate compact SUV.

Its sporty looking fun, and I am excited about the gas mileage

As has been mentioned in other reviews, the gas saving feature of engine stop when idling with break, has a very rough restart to pull away.

Fuel mileage is quite good also, with the mid-30s in mpgs.

The Rav 4 LE is easy to drive/handles well and is great on gas.

Rav 4 has plenty of room and power and great on gas mileage.

ride

but it rides smoothly, is quiet and performance is excellent so far (temperatures in the low twenties Fahrenheit at the moment).

very smooth ride, excellent mileage and am driving mostly electric.

Toyota knows how to make a product that last, looks good, rides amazing, and will turn heads for years to come.

It rides like my Avalon yet has plenty of space in the back to be able to haul things like beach chairs and coolers.

Love the smooth electric power train and the quiet ride.

Love the size of the car, the way it rides and it’s reliability.

Comfort, stylish, roomy, and a smooth ride.

Rav4 rides pretty good, it has a solid feel, not very cushy

2021 Chevrolet Colorado

lights

Track, check engine light out ,Can't turn steering at all.

Notified dealer they said it was likely a “cliche” the light did go out

Horrible front lights actually quite dangerous if driving at night.

The headlights are pathetically weak, some of the worst out there.

This vehicle is the sweetest truck I veered own fast fo a v6 conforms perfect, my dog loves the back seat he has a lot of room and comfort, easy to handle, great on gas, nothing better!

The 2021 Chevy Colorado 4x4 WT was surprisingly fitted with comfortable extras that make this great for both work and pleasure.

Quality built, Comfort, Ride, Very Powerful V6 Engine with over 300 HP!

Very comfortable ride, good acceleration when I want it, quiet, infotainment works well, ample space in the bed, and getting about 24 mpg.

but we like the solid ride, amenities, and comfort of the cab.

Awesome ride, guilt in cabin, leather seats comfortable, all the truck I need to haul my family and all be safe

Downside from a silverado needed a little smaller truck so far great ride comfortable and stylish interior very peppy v6 .z71  style looks great plenty of room

There is no center headrest in back seat or viable and accessible hookup for child’s restraint seat.

Has room for my two dogs to rode on the back seat.

I was surprised at how comfortable the back seat is in the extended cab for a medium truck.

The truck was just what we wanted the drivers seat rises up and down which is good for me because I am short has a lot of room in backseat

This model is perfect for our needs and rides better than the competition.

The truck ad a great road stance, handles well for a truck and an above average ride.

The Z71 rides firm (its a truck it should) and handles a good load and tows  more than I need.

PRO: Smooth, very quiet ride, no rattles.

turn-handling

The truck handles wonderfully and it very easy to drive.

I have have many full size trucks over the years, the Colorado is my first mid size truck, while it has z a a smaller payload capacity, it feels and handles more like a full size truck

This truck turns heads going down the street !!

It  handles well both  on and off the road.

It is my second Colorado & I like the way it handles & the way it drives & gives great gas mileage.

Easy turning, smooth, comfy, quiet and really happy I went for a new one.

The first Safety feature to fail were the Air Bags.

though it is considered a basic model the Wheel upgrade is fantastic, even nicer than the LT option.

All the options it has and I haven't found anything I don't like about this truck.

The seats could have had more options to choose from.

I like the styling and choice of many options.

The money here was clearly put into building a strong work-horse that rides as smooth and quietly as a luxury car, all in a shorter / thinner package (it's still quite tall).

It has all of the features I need and want plus it looks very stylish with the upgraded suspension and tires.

it has a slightly more edgy look and the tech package is better than ever.

2019 Jeep Cherokee

transmission

Transmission can't decide which gear to select when accelerating from a slow speed which has gotten dangerous in a few highway entrance ramp situations; info system is weird to use - you need to turn the radio on first before going to climate, Nav, etc.

The transmission is really slow and seems like its confused and wasn't geared properly.

Hopefully just 1 bad part in the sea of transmissions.

There is a hesitation in transmission when I put my foot on the gas and the car basically doesn’t “go” for a few seconds.

Like break issues, transmission, and more .

After 45 minutes my wife took the car to go shopping and in less than a mile the transmission shifted to limp mode ONCE AGAIN and the ACC/FCW not available message popped up along with ESC and back up sensor faults.

I got my Jeep last May and it's been one issue after the next starting with the 9 speed transmission.

Just didn’t feel it could keep up with the bulk of the vehicle and it seemed to struggle with compatibility of the 9 speed transmission.

By exploded, I mean I was picking up shrapnel off the ground and transmission fluid was pouring out.

at the same time there was another issue of clicking noise coming underneath the car when I mentioned it to the guy at the reception, he said, "its ok this is a brand new car that should not be an issue because these cars are built like this.

For being a 4x4, the ride is very nice and you don't hear the tire noise from the more aggressive tires out on the highway.

Next, I thought a clutch fan was going out because of a rattle we would hear sometimes.

The engine is noisy and I found it under-powered while towing much less than the capacity rating.

Although most people dont buy Jeeps for the gas mileage, this new engine and trans paring is lacking the mileage as well as it's a bit noisy.

Road noise and ride quality were our main criteria.

You can feel the road and hear the noise a bit,

Brakes make loud humming noise while braking in forward or reverse.

radio

You can adjust the radio without your hands leaving the steering wheel.

Radio won't store selected stations; radio volume  is erratic; NAV gets lost sometimes; backup camera is nearly useless at night especially if its raining; tailight lenses have water in them; it's just simply not a Toyota or Honda.

Pros:
- exterior styling
- interior styling
- interior comfort
- soft touch interior

Cons:
- buggy screen/control center (cuts in and out)
- radio (fm)  volume goes up and down while you're driving .

Radio is crap, dash lights coming on, I've had it 8.5 months and I can't get it worked on.

After 16 days the vehicle was finally diagnosed with a faulty radio and that was replaced and the car seemed to be running fine.

Have had the radio replaced which is unfortunately extremely common issue in Jeeps now days.

The two items I would prefer to be different are:   Why does the radio have to be "ON" before any information can be displayed on the screen?

The two items I do not like are the radio which MUST be turned on and left on (yes it can be muted or volume turned all the way down) before any of the screen information can be displayed.

The Jeeps software is out of date idk y they r selling it , no manual 4wd, the radio is faulty Cuts out , the car play won?t work , all these issues have been going on since the 2018 models now I?m stuck with a vehicle with faulty software

brake

If you let go of the brake right when the engine shuts of, you stall.

It’s a very easy car to drive not like the Evoque, which took at least a month to figure out the very long turbo lag, and extreme grabby brakes.

All the features, including the fog lights turning on when I turn the steering wheel and being able to release the pressure of the calipers when changing the brakes, really make the car even more special!

The brakes are very bad and takes a longer time to stop, causing a major safety issue.

.i detest the feature where the engine stops when you brake for a stop.

warranty

But be aware that after the warranty is up it has a defect that might leave you broke down on the side of the road

And the warranty is too much problems as well .

Only issue I have is a moonroof that leaks a little in a heavy rain storm, taking it to the dealer to have that addressed under warranty.

(Replaced under warranty on 08/22/18) on 07/08/18 - 07/09/18 - 07/10/18 I ran into an issue with the transmission shifting hard and then displaying a message on the dash that stated ?service transmission, restart in park at zero speed?

This car meets all my needs, it is fuel efficient and very comfortable.

Great deal, nice ride and super comfortable.

So here is the run down so far : 

Vehicle is comfortable both on short and long trips , I’m 6”1 and it is surprisingly roomy.

This car is comfortable to drive and good leg room riding in the back seat.

really comfortable , so many great features!

We bought it for our daughter and we feel very comfortable with its reliability and safety features.

Also great that it has phone chargers for back seat passengers.

More room in back seat than you would think.

I rode in the back seat in the middle and was impressed at how comfortable it was.

so safe with my 9 year old in my back seat.

So far it feels smooth and safe. Back seat didn't have more room than I expected 

Nice riding vehicle with plenty of room in the back seat of car easy to get in and out of vehicle lots of bells and whistles on the car

Panaramic sunroof is a hit with the little one who sits in the backseat.

Great car, it meets my needs and has plenty of leg room for back seat passengers.

I like the climate controls in the back seat for the passengers.

Equipped great features such as Apple Carplay, Android Auto, Blind Spot Monitor, Emergency Rear Braking, LED headlights, dual tip exhausts.

This car has been very well made, no rattles every thing works, great features ,beautiful exterior and interior.

I love the style, features
And the new engine has great pickup.

It's loaded with a lot of features that  helps make you feel safe and confident in driving it.

It had almost everything I was looking for ( no tow package)
Love it!!! !

The car is awesome looking and has all the features I need.

I love all the extras on it and the smooth ride.

Recommend this car for its performance and ride.

This vehicle meets me and my family needs it has plenty of leg room hold the road very well the ride oh my God it is amazing smooth as

I love my Jeep latitude love it love it love the smooth ride, the space, the design love it all I would recommend it to a friend

I love that it is a trailhawk, and I like the size and ride.

The ride is smooth and composed, actually sporty, and the 9 speed is smooth as silk.

The  ride is very smooth and comfortable, and it has a solid, quality feel to it.

Great fuel mileage around town and on the highway.

Was Very roomy nice driving easy on gas and you can put stuff on it a lot of room loved it

Both power and fuel efficiency are outstanding from the 2.0L Turbo 4-cylinder engine.

Car is very roomy, has everything I might need, plus gets good gas mileage {30 mpg was unexpected].

And it gets pretty good gas mileage which was a big thing for me.

Not to mention is has great gas millage at 30mpg highway, perfect for my morning commute 30 min away and for travel!

It’s large enough with plenty of room inside yet compact enough for easy maneuverability and good gas mileage.

2020 Ford Escape

Unless under full throttle, its not overly noisy in any situation.

I have never been in a car that made a noise like this.

As I drove away from the dealership I noticed a very distinct, very low vibration sound.

I like the car EXCEPT for the vibration that I feel when I drive normally and am not accelerating between 1000 to 2000RPM (speed start to over 60MPH.

Unfortunately,  4 days into driving it began having a very noticeable creaking sound upon the vehicle coming to a stop and leaving a stopped position and you can also hear it when driving sometimes and turning.

The only thing that sucks is the wind noise or as Ford calls it, the sound of turbulence I hear while driving over 50MPH on the driver's side.

I have noticed a rattling noise when I shut the passenger and back right door.

Several issues like on going drivers seat noise, back hatch door has almost closed on us, computer has rebooted on I4 at 75MPH, sun roof needed adjustments, seat belt harness is coming apart, cruise control does not engage. .

My only dislike is some of the interior materials could be better and my subwoofer still rattles despite being fixed.

Prior to purchasing this vehicle, please take note that when driving it you will experience  horrible vibrations at 1500 RPM.

speed

When I press gas pedal slightly to speed up when going into a higher speed limit area, I keep pressing more and more (slowly) and it finally responds, usually with a hard downshift.

On the way home from picking it up I noticed that the car struggled horribly to accelerate, seemingly switching gears back and forth, up and down, and making some kind of low, humming sound as a constant rate of speed was met.

We guess it’s due to the less effort the engine needs to work to get to speed where the Rav4 worked hard to get up to highway speeds.

Despite having slightly less horsepower, our hybrid can pass cars with ease at all speeds, and it's quiet - something that really bothered us about the RAV - it was a bit throaty when accelerating and made a funny noise every time we braked.

I got it back & the transmission went out once again.

Transmission disconnects from engine from time to time while driving.

It is loud, uncomfortable, shifts roughly, and so many other issues.

Needs new Everything transmission, breaks, computer system, powertrain, collision assistance doesn’t work, nothing works.

The engine is surprisingly powerful and responsiveness probably thanks in large part to the transmission.
