Description of the problem | 2020 rav4 hybrid xse will not fill to a full tank of fuel after countless repeated attempts. The owners manual states it's a 14. 5 gallon tank and once the low fuel light comes on you should have about 2. 2 gallons of reserve fuel. I am unable to get even close to the 12. 3 gallons give or take it should need. I can only pump around 9 gallons of fuel. This leaves me with only getting a range of 350+ miles to a tank. Also this issue was discovered in 2019 and no one let me know my 2020 would be affected by this when purchasing. Toyota should have made this clear because it would have changed my decision. Also after repeated attempts at the dealership they said they have no fix for this issue at the time. |
