Toyota RAV4 Owner Experiences Mysterious Issue
A 2022 Toyota RAV4 owner, Sierra Szymoniak, shared her unusual experience on the Toyota RAV4 Discussion Group Facebook page.
"Ok, I figured this would be the best place to ask this question. I recently bought a new-to-me 2022 Toyota RAV4 XLE. I bought gas today, and the pump shut off at 28.22, and I took the total up to 28.50. I then drove 15 minutes down the road and parked in a parking spot, and didn't shut the car off."
After filling up her gas tank, Sierra noticed smoke coming from the front right of her hood, followed by warning lights and the car shutting down.
The dealership blamed the issue on the 28 cents of "extra" gas, claiming it was the cause of the problem.
