The contact owns a 2023 Toyota Rav4 Prime.

The 12.3-inch display of the instrument panel went blank when I was driving and away from home. Operating the vehicle with this display blank resulted in usafe diriving conditions including inability to see speed, gas tank status, charge status and all malfunction indicators. Since the malfunction occured while driving, I was at an increased risk of a crash or an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash. I had to drive home and then later to the dealership with this malfunction occuring.
13.2 inch console display went blank on 9/15/25; remedy not available for over 6 months now; they still do not have a definite schedule to give me; toyota says to wait for another letter that should have been sent out months ago. Not sure if litigation is appropriate for this case.
1 - The dashboard/head unit went black. Software failure. No longer able to see any metrics on the dashboard screen. Speed limit. Mileage. Electrical charge. Gas tank. Nothing. 2 - I literally cannot drive the car anymore, it's a safety issue. 3 - It's been at the dealership service center since December 31, 2025, with no solution in sight, I called again today for an update. It's been held "in repair" for three months now. 4 - The screen disappeared once before for a few hours, came back on, then disappeared again and never came back. It's a national recall - Toyota is not expediting the fix or just doesn't care

I own a 2023 Toyota RAV4 XSE that currently has an active safety recall related to the instrument cluster/speedometer display going blank. My vehicle is experiencing this issue — the speedometer/instrument screen has gone completely blank, preventing me from seeing my speed, warning lights, or critical vehicle information while driving. I contacted my Toyota dealership and was informed that this is a known recall issue and that I should contact Toyota Customer Care. Toyota Customer Care confirmed there is currently no repair or fix available for this recall and advised me to obtain a loaner vehicle through the dealership due to the safety concern. When I contacted the dealership again, they stated they have no loaner vehicles available and could not provide alternative transportation. As a result, I am left with a vehicle that may be unsafe to operate due to the lack of a functioning speedometer and safety warning indicators, with no remedy or interim solution provided. This situation presents a significant safety risk to myself, passengers, and other drivers. I am submitting this complaint because there is an active safety recall affecting a critical safety system, the defect is currently occurring in my vehicle, and no repair or reasonable interim solution has been made available.
I am reporting an unresolved safety defect involving the 12.3-inch instrument panel display on my Toyota RAV4 Prime, which is the subject of the federal safety agency Recall 25V595 (Manufacturer Recall 25TB08). The defect affects the LED digital display that provides critical driver information, including vehicle speed, warning indicators, and operating status. Initially, the display would intermittently go blank at startup and sometimes return during the drive. However, the condition has progressively worsened. The instrument panel display has now been completely blank and unresponsive for over three consecutive days and has not returned at all, including after multiple drive cycles. As a result, the vehicle cannot display critical operating information or malfunction indicators. This issue was first reported to an authorized Toyota dealer in August, prior to the recall being issued. At that time, I was informed that I would be responsible for replacing the entire display/instrument system at my own expense. On September 11, 2025, Toyota issued Recall 25V595 acknowledging that the instrument panel display may be blank at startup and stating that operating the vehicle in this condition reduces the ability to see malfunction indicators and could increase the risk of a crash or injury. The vehicle was most recently serviced on December 19, at which time the dealer confirmed that the issue is related to the recall and that no remedy is currently available. The recall remains incomplete, and Toyota has not provided a repair, interim solution, loaner vehicle, or timeline for resolution. Because the instrument panel display is completely nonfunctional, the vehicle cannot be safely operated. The lack of a remedy for a safety-related defect affecting a core vehicle safety system has exceeded a reasonable timeframe. I am requesting the federal safety agency review and intervention.
