Cablegate
As you know by now, there’s a growing rift between Toyota Canada and certain owners of 2019-2022 RAV4 Hybrid and RAV4 Prime models due to premature corrosion of a high-voltage cable.
A class action lawsuit was filed on May 19. In October, Toyota Canada instructed dealers to pay for the replacement of said cable even when the 3-year/60,000km warranty is expired. Damaged components will be analyzed as part of an ongoing investigation. The hope is that Toyota announces a recall and makes adjustments to its current warranty.
