Four incidents of damage to wiring by rodents. Mechanic believes the rodent to be a rat. One rat has been caught in a live trap. Yet two more incidents of eaten wiring. The rat eats the insulation on the wiring and bites through the wiring. The rat drags tissues into the h/a vents. Even tried to eat a package of foil wrapped hand wipes. The rat has left scat under the seats. The rat was observed playing under my car while parked downtown. He managed to get back in the car and rode 'home. '.
I purchase the Rav4 in October 2015, and three months after the purchase I started to experience a crunching sound coming from my brakes and a fluctuation issue where the brakes do not always catch causing a safety concern. The dealer and Toyota are refusing on two occasions to acknowledge the issue. I took the car in to the Toyota dealer again on 7/28/2015 in hopes that they will finally fix the issue. The dealer will not document the issue!.
