We purchased a new Rav4, in may 2009. Yesterday while the car was parked the left rear tire explosively blew out the sidewall, the car has 2400 miles on it. The person who witnessed the failure said it sounded like a shotgun blast. I also found this in our Toyota vehicle owner service records: by dealer 05/05/09 Toyota of mcdonough 5 0092548 repair flat tire view details basically this car has had two tire failures in less than 3000 miles. A relative of ours, the one who recommended the rav 4 to us, had a similar experience with his new 2009 Rav4 with yokohama tires, but since he was on the interstate traveling at a high rate of speed the tire was shredded to badly to determine the cause of failure.
