 Description of the problemI purchased the 2013 rav4 limited with navigation and a blind spot monitor, however i do not believe the monitor works correctly, it does not give any indication that something (another vehicle) is approaching until the vehicle is at the side door of my vehicle, way too late to make an adjustment to your changing lanes. I have had it back to my toyota dealers two times, on the first visit the car was in for a 6 month check up and i said something about it at the time, but nothing shows on my visit that it was checked so i assumed that it was corrected. After that visit i realized that the blind spot monitor was still not working, so on my one year inspection and check up i specifically asked for the blind spot monitor to be checked again. This time when i got my bill for the pennsylvania emissions test i noted the blind sport monitor was not part of my repair bill, so i questioned the service rep, who explained there was no adjustment for this part. I went to the sales manager about it and she said she would have toyota contact me. When i was not contacted by toyota i sent a email to toyota owners web site and made a compliant, they responded that i should take it back to the toyota dealer and tell them i need an adjustment on the blind spot monitor, which i did, when i returned to pick up my rav4 i was told they could not find any problem and there was nothing could be done. My compliant is if it is not adjustable then it is a safety issue that should be looked into. Thank you
