TL;DR Summary

Toyota is recalling nearly 1.9 million RAV4 SUVs in the U.S. due to a potential fire risk caused by batteries shifting during sharp turns. The recall affects certain RAV4s from 2013 to 2018, and Toyota is preparing a fix that involves replacing the hold-down clamp, battery tray, and positive terminal cover. The company will notify owners by late December. This comes after previous recalls by Toyota for issues with the tabs securing front lower bumper covers on Highlander SUVs and a potential fire risk in Tundra vehicles.
