TL;DR Summary

Toyota is recalling nearly 2 million RAV4 SUVs in the U.S. due to a battery issue that poses a fire risk. The recall is for 2013-2018 models, where the battery could move if the hold-down clamp is not tightened correctly, potentially causing a short circuit and increasing the risk of a fire. Toyota plans to replace the necessary components for free and will notify customers by the end of the year. Owners can check if their vehicle is part of the recall by visiting toyota.com/recall and entering their vehicle identification number.
