| Latches/locks/linkage problems |
After I had my new 2007 Rav4 for about half year, I experienced sudden lockup, felt couldn't go even 10 meters with smoking. My driving speed was about 20-30kmh, just out of garage about 200 meters,and my neighbor saw the smoke as well. He jumped into my car, and checked if I was using emergency brake, no, I wasn't using that. I called country hill Toyota, calgary, alberta, and they towed my Rav4 away. Next day, they told me that they found nothing, the car was ok. I also called ama(alberta motor association), get nothing.
