How do I know when to get new brakes on my Toyota RAV4?

A brake inspection is your smartest first step. Investing in manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Toyota RAV4 brakes is another good idea. That said, front brake pad wear can be significantly reduced in electric vehicles because of regenerative braking.

My Toyota RAV4 dashboard warning light is on. What should I do?

There are so many reasons the RAV4 dashboard warning light can illuminate. Stop by Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic to learn more. You may also have a warning light on the dash regarding your high voltage system.

Why is my RAV4 leaking water?

If you’ve been running the A/C in your electric car, don’t be too surprised to find some water underneath it. Electric vehicles use a receiver dryer assembly to help keep the A/C refrigerant clean, which can produce external condensation. This condensation then drains under the vehicle on warm days. While a small amount of water can be considered normal, large puddles or any coolant leaking from your RAV4 could indicate a cooling system problem.

EV Services for Your 2002 Toyota RAV4

Has your Toyota RAV4 been feeling a bit "off"? Maybe you've noticed slower acceleration, or it just doesn't feel as "peppy" as it once did. If so, our technicians can perform a no-charge* hybrid/electric vehicle check for more details. Maybe there's a problem with your RAV4’s high voltage cooling system -- if the high voltage battery is running hot, it will limit the battery’s performance. Or, maybe your RAV4 has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to offer conventional and low voltage services for all electric car makes and models, including 2002 Toyota RAV4s.

Some Firestone stores also have advanced/high voltage services for electric cars like Toyota RAV4s. A high voltage service is anything that requires removing the RAV4's high voltage, safety/service disconnect switch/plug, servicing the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, or any high voltage electric machines/motors or high voltage cables, etc. Call ahead before making an appointment to confirm the high voltage services at your closest location.

Your store's high voltage electric vehicle service may include:

Electric vehicle diagnostic: Once we identify the symptoms, a diagnostic is the next step we take when you bring your 2002 Toyota RAV4 in to identify the root cause. With the information gathered, your expert technician can further diagnose electric vehicle problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. We never perform repairs without your approval.

High voltage battery cooling inspection: Your technician will examine the RAV4's high voltage battery filter, if applicable, and clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: Cables can get damaged. In this inspection, your tehnician will examine the exterior cable jackets and connectors and test to make sure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis of your Toyota RAV4. If the cable needs to be replaced, they'll let you know.

Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your Toyota RAV4's high voltage battery a goner? Sometimes electric vehicle batteries can wear out sooner than you expect in hotter climates or if you use Level 3 fast-charging stations often, since these stations may heat the battery more. Let us install a new electric vehicle high voltage battery.

Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll check the electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), power inverter, and/or regenerative braking in your 2002 Toyota RAV4.

These are just a few of the more specialized electric car services that might be offered at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call first to check!
