Buying a used 2024 Toyota RAV4? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 177 owner complaints on file

The 2024 RAV4 has 3 recalls involving loose front brake and wheel bolts, missing instrument-panel warnings, and a rearview camera that may freeze. The brake and wheel fastener issue deserves particular attention in repair documentation; display and camera operation also warrant checks. NHTSA records 177 unverified owner complaints, led by 49 unknown or other, 39 engine, 33 electrical, and 27 steering reports. Those reports include 28 crashes, 1 fire, and 21 injuries.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Obtain proof of the front brake and wheel bolt recall repair.
3. Verify instrument-panel and rearview-camera recall completion.
4. Ask about engine trouble, steering symptoms, and electrical repairs.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
