3 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 08/19/2025

I purchased a new 2023 Toyota Rav4 in March 2023, which is covered by Toyota’s 36-month/36,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty. In August 2025, while the vehicle was still within warranty, a malfunction warning appeared for the pre-collision system and road sign assist. The Toyota dealership diagnosed an internal failure of the forward recognition camera (dtc c1a95:00 — image processing module malfunction) and recommended replacement and calibration at a cost of approximately $2,300. Toyota denied warranty coverage despite the failure being internal to the part and occurring within the warranty period. I am seeking reimbursement for repair costs that should be covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.

4 Warnings problem

While driving or idling, the pre-collusion, rsa malfunction, headlight system malfunction, and lta system malfunction will go off as well as my navigation on my screen. Its been going on and off for 7 months now. It works, then it doesn't. I don't want to take it in because I know they're famous for making me pay high dollar fees for anything and everything. Toyota is horrible for their services and just want the money. I never had any issues with my car until I got a nail in my tire that was an easy fix (that they also wanted to keep my car overnight for a patch).

5 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 02/29/2024

Pre collision malfunction, rsa malfunction, lta malfunction, headlight malfunction. These warnings keep coming up showing the vehicle is not safe. Parts were ordered in February but are on back order. Might get by June. Vehicle has also rebooted the screens, tried to lane change, and failed to start once. To me this is a programming problem. This has been an on going problem for months now. The dealership claims that it is a wonky camera causing the problem.
