I hear a story that Toyota is recalling 1 million cars on CNN tonight. Did not catch the whole story. Not sure of the problem or if it involves our new RAVS. Has anyone heard about this?

It's not hard to find the info with a google news search.

How to check and where to check the manufacturing date in my RAV4.

 

[Quickdtoo]

The build plate is on the driver's door frame bottom right as you get in the vehicle. Date is top right on the plate as 03/06 = Mar 2006.

Thank Quickdtoo. I will check my date of manufacturing...

Looks the recall is broad? Hope Rav4 is not in the list....

I'm safe this time, the recall covers vehicles built thru November 2005, mine was built 03/06. :wink:
