Defect Description:
LANE DEPARTURE
Potential Consequences:
The contact owns a 2022 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 MPH, the steering wheel suddenly began to turn to the left and the right causing the vehicle to move from lane to lane. Additionally, depressing the brake pedal did not immediately slow or stop the vehicle. The driver was eventually able to regain control of the steering wheel and stopped the vehicle. After turning off and restarting the vehicle, the failure was no longer present and the vehicle operated as normal. The vehicle was later towed to the local dealer and an engineer from the manufacturer was sent to evaluate the vehicle. The contact was informed that during the incident the lane assist system had activated and attempted to compensate when the driver attempted to steer the vehicle back into the proper lane. No failure was determined. The contact notified the manufacturer of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 800.
