Common problems and easy repairs on a 2010 RAV4

The 2010 Toyota RAV4 Limited is an easy car to maintain. The tail lights have reliable access, as they’re all located behind a single panel in the trunk which doesn’t require any tools to remove. The transmission fluid dipstick has simple access, allowing you to monitor the fluid level with ease. The fuse boxes are quick to find and come provided with a fuse puller, so electrical troubleshooting shouldn’t be a problem.

However, the 2010 Toyota RAV4 Limited has its downsides. The washer fluid neck needs to be moved to access the headlights on the driver’s side, which doesn’t allow for reliable bulb changes. A large panel needs to be removed to access the battery bracket, which can make it a problem when you need to change the battery. The glove box must be removed to access the cabin air filter, which can end up being a tedious process.
