Warning Problems of Toyota RAV4

Our 3 yrs old + Toyota Rav4 hybrid SUV with barely over 30,000 miles on it had 2 safety issues within 2 months of each other! first was the driver's side mirror- it was rattling, feeling like it might fall off! seems common issue, perhaps due to cheap plastic parts inside. We had it fixed- Toyota brand engagement center gave a 'goodwill' gesture to cover us replacing it at dealership, though it should never have happened on such a newer vehicle in the first place! then not even 2 months later, a warning flashed- "pre collision system malfunction!" also "headlights" with same warning- "see dealer now!" Toyota dealer. They said forward recognition camera had 'internal malfunction' and needed to be replaced. It was going to be quite expensive, but the camera part is not even available in foreseeable future as there's back order for hundreds and they're still in production! it seems this too is a common safety problem~ we can't understand why there's not a recall on this. Toyota took no responsibility for this issue, which is appalling as, like the first 'side driver's side mirror failure' was also a safety issue! the whole reason we bought this vehicle was for its safety features! without the front facing camera that comes with the car in same compartment as rear view mirror resides, we now have no pre-collision warnings, no headlight safety feature, no rsa (road sign assist system). It's infuriating that Toyota, who obviously is making inferior safety products, does not offer to help out in any way. We're both [xxx] and entitled to these safety features as we bought the car both new and paid top dollar! our service advisor at the Toyota dealership agrees this is 'not normal', the car is too young to have this happen! he will attest to this & we have paperwork. It stated 'no immediate remedy'. (replacement camera not available) I believe this is happening to hundreds of other Rav4 owners. It's outrageous! please help! these electronics for safety should not fail! information redacted pursuant to the freedom of infor.

Vehicle shows multiple safety systems malfunction and display warning messages. The vehicle displays repeated alerts including lta (lane tracing assist) malfunction, pre-collision system malfunction, rsa (road sign assist) malfunction, and headlight system malfunction. These warnings occur while the vehicle is in motion or parking and cause the safety features to shut off unexpectedly.

Engine maintnance light came on dashboard. Was not aware of this issue until doing research. Parts that needs replace - cooling bypass valve.

When I do these checks I have my hands lightly on the wheel ready to correct the car when needed. The lane control assist tends to stay to the left of the lane, crossing over the left side lane markers, it also tends to head towards the right side of the lane, crossing over the right side lane markers without compensating. At times it does compensate but it causes the car to go back and forth in the lane without settling out. There have been times when the car is steered to the right with no compensation and without my correction would have gone off the road. The lane warning system doesn't always work. If I did not have diligence when using the system I would no doubt have gone off the road and crashed. The dealer has not checked the car, they say this is how it works even on their personal Toyotas. These problems have been prominent and have existed since the purchase of the car in 2023.

Vehicle battery completely dead after only 3 days of not being driven. Vehicle would not start and could not be jump started. Vehicle is only 2 months old. Wireless charging does not charge consistently. Intermittent connection only and gets very hot. Usb phone connection randomly disconnects and reconnects. Occasionally the voice command prompt on center control is activated and stays connected when connecting a phone through usb and cannot exit to see information display. Remote start from fob will not work. Lane departure system too sensitive and takes over steering of car causing countersteering from driver control.

The lane departure warning buzzer's warning cannot be heard on the road with the radio on low volume or with a radio off but driving above 75mph due to the road noise. Multiple complaints to different dealers resulted in comments that the buzzer works as designed. Calls to Toyota's "brand engagement advocate" resulted in advice to go to a dealer. They have no authority to instruct the dealer to replace the buzzer. I understand that ldw is mandatory for 5 stars safety rating, but I cannot find the specification for this safety feature.
